I consider an economy where skilled and unskilled workers use different technologies. The rate of improvement of each technology is determined by a profit-maximizing R&D sector. When there is a high proportion of skilled workers in the labor force, the market for skill-complementary technologies...

This study introduces an innovative automated model, the Scientists and Researchers Classification Model (SRCM), which employs data mining and machine-learning techniques to classify, rank, and evaluate scientists and researchers in university settings. The SRCM is designed to foster an...

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has significantly transformed corporate behavior in the energy sector by enhancing the capacity and efficiency of information transmission and big data analysis. However, there is still a limited understanding of how AI influences new market entry mode...

This paper analyzes technology choices and unemployment in search equilibrium. In contrast to standard search models, the presence of technology choices makes the decentralized equilibrium inefficient; there is too little investment in skills, too little job creation, and there can be multiple...

We audit the job recommender algorithms used by four Chinese job boards by creating fictitious applicant profiles that differ only in their gender. Jobs recommended uniquely to the male and female profiles in a pair differ modestly in their observed characteristics, with female jobs advertising...

This paper contributes to the current debate in both Economic Geography and International Business on the nature and strategies of Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) from emerging countries (EMNEs). The paper fills a relevant gap in the existing literature by shedding new light on the location...

This paper investigates the geography of multinational corporations' investments in the EU regions. The 'traditional' sources of location advantages (i.e. agglomeration economies, market access and labour market conditions) are considered together with innovation and socio-institutional drivers...

The productivity paradox of digitisation in hospitals refers to the difficulty in realising measurable efficiency gains from digital innovations. Despite significant investments, healthcare costs continue to rise, particularly in OECD countries like Germany. While digitisation is expected to...

Embedding new technology creates opportunities and challenges for the global value chain (GVC). Using country-level panel data from 59 economies in 2007–2018, we construct a fixed-effects model to investigate the relationship between digital technology and the GVC position. Moreover, we...

This study aims to identify generative AI (GenAI) applications and develop a roadmap for the near, mid, and far future. Structural topic modeling (STM) is used to discover latent semantic patterns and identify the key application areas from a text corpus comprising 2,398 patents published...
