Der vorliegende Beitrag beschreibt Nutzenpotentiale und Realisierungsmöglichkeiten eines standort- und organisationsübergreifenden Geschäftsprozeßmanagements in der öffentlichen Verwaltung. Dazu werden im zweiten Kapitel Verwaltungsprozesse analysiert, Optimierungspotentiale aufgezeigt und...

Most MDA approaches are focused on Platform Independent Models (PIM) and Platform Specific Models (PSM) and the transformation between them. The more conceptual Computation Independent Models (CIM) or even unstructured information is often neglected, despite the importance of requirements...

This paper analyzes a two-player all-pay auction with incomplete information. More precisely, one bidder is uncertain about the size of the initial advantage of his rival modeled as a head start in the auction. I derive the unique Bayesian Nash equilibrium outcome for a large class of cumulative...

This paper presents a strategic model of risk-taking behavior in contests. Formally, we analyze an n-player winner-take-all contest in which each player decides when to stop a privately observed Brownian Motion with drift. A player whose process reaches zero has to stop. The player with the...

This paper introduces a contest model in which each player decides when to stop a privately observed Brownian motion with drift and incurs costs depending on his stopping time. The player who stops his process at the highest value wins a prize. Applications of the model include procurement...
