In this paper we discuss a basic framework for a grid computing market. It has long been argued that pricing of computer resources can act as a scheduling protocol. We take this idea to its natural conclusion by discussing the basic properties of such a model. We introduce agents that own...

In this note a one-state, one-control variable quadratic linear problem with robust control and discount factor is developed to examine the optimal response of the first-period control to changes in future model uncertainty. A change in future model uncertainty has an effect on the optimal...

This paper builds upon the work by Tucci and Kendrick (2001) in which the authors develop a quadratic form version of the robust permanent income and pricing model described in Hansen, Sargent and Tallerini (1999). Then using the parameter values given on p. 18 of the HST paper they compute the...

In this paper an analytical framework using robust control was developed for the one-state and one-control variable model to examine the response of the control to changes in the "free" parameter. However, in contrast to Gonzalez and Rodriguez (2003), the sign of the ``free" parameter in the...

In this paper we analyze dynamic incentives of a firm to invest in production facilities in a less developed country with lower wage costs and lower productivity. Foreign investment induces that, due to technological spillovers, productivity of local firms in the foreign country increases. Firms...

Uncertainty about the persistence of periods characterized by large price shocks is an important aspect of monetary policy. This type of uncertainty posed some difficulties for central banks in 2004. This paper formalizes the treatment of this type of uncertainty by solving an optimal control...
