This study empirically examines the impact of individual motivation on innovation performance, where innovative behavior serves as a mediating construct, and discusses whether the innovation climate has a moderating effect. This study combines the Cognitive Evaluation Theory and behavioral...

Ride-sharing platforms employ surge pricing to match anticipated capacity spillover with demand. We develop an optimization model to characterize the relationship between surge price and spillover. We test predicted relationships using a spatial panel model on a dataset from Uber's operation....

With spatial analytic, econometric, and visualization tools, this book chapter investigates greenhouse gas emissions for the on-road passenger vehicle transport sector in the Boston metropolitan area in 2014. It compares greenhouse gas emission estimations from both the production-based and...

This article analyzes resale price maintenance (RPM), its economic principles, and its application in the United States, Europe and China. The application of RPM varies across each of these three jurisdictions. In China, there are competing economic goals, no clear standard (per se illegality...

Cardinality constrained mean-variance (CCMV) portfolio selection problem is commonly formulated as a mixed integer quadratic program (MIQP) that can be solved by a branch-and-bound scheme or metaheuristics. Yet, computational efficiency remains to be a major issue. In this study, we propose a...

Urban analytics combines spatial analysis, statistics, computer science, and urban planning to understand and shape city futures. While it promises better policymaking insights, concerns exist around its epistemological scope and impacts on privacy, ethics, and social control. This chapter...

In coming years, there will be billions of RFID tags living in the world tagging almost everything for tracking and identification purposes. This phenomenon will impose a new challenge not only to the network capacity but also to the scalability of event processing of RFID applications. Since...
