摘要：We analyze how the decline of a technology affects online labor market dynamics. We evaluate the effects of Steve Jobs' announcement that Apple would no longer support Adobe Flash-a popular set of tools for creating internet applications. Despite a precipitous decline in Flash demand, there is no evidence of a reduction in Flash wages on this platform because the supply response was rapid, particularly among younger developers with readily available fallback skills. The key to this rapid adjus...

摘要：Crowdsourcing contests have become increasingly popular as a means of seeking innovative solutions to business problems. However, the abundance of concurrent contests on platforms can lead to disparities in solvers' contest awareness, resulting in lost time-the time elapsed between the start of a contest and a solver's first visit. This study investigates how lost time influences solvers' submission behavior and its subsequent impact on matching inefficacy as measured by solver disqualificatio...

摘要：Cloud services exist under a shared security environment with a dynamic nature; users trade fixed costs for variable costs over time, and both cloud services providers (CSPs) and users contribute to overall security. We investigate the nature of shared security in a dynamic game where users' security contributions and cloud usage figure into their CSP's vulnerability. Furthermore, CSPs' own security contribution takes into account both their users as well as competition with other CSPs. The Ma...

摘要：Technostress is an emerging topic in the information systems (IS) literature. Prior studies have mostly adopted a static approach to capturing snapshots of technostressors, without considering their dynamic and episodic nature. Daily technostress is often the product of discrete events encountered in the workplace that shape employees' momentary affect and behaviors in situ. To lay the conceptual foundation for understanding deviant behaviors, this study integrates the self-regulation perspect...

摘要：Social media platforms, such as Facebook, often display assertive call-toaction ads that encourage direct conversion actions, such as purchasing a product or installing an app. Additionally, these ads can display popularity signals (i.e., likes) and social endorsement from friends (i.e., friends' likes). We examine the effectiveness of displaying these different signals on such ads in generating clicks through field tests conducted on Facebook. We collaborated with a mobile app company and con...
