摘要：This paper introduces joint product design and non-linear pricing in the context of sharing markets. Product ecosystems enable user sensing, setting the stage for the control of post-purchase consumption patterns. By varying the degree to which products can be reused and transferred among peers, a company can engineer their shareability, which together with a capacity of aftermarket control, allows for flexible non-linear pricing that involves charging for the initial purchase and for subseque...

摘要：While expert rating is still a dominant approach for selecting winners in contests for creative works, a few crowdsourcing platforms have recently used crowd voting for winner selection - that is, let users of the crowdsourcing community publicly vote for contest winners. We investigate how a contest's reliance on crowd voting for winner selection, defined as the percentage of crowd-voted prizes to the total prize sum (in dollar amounts), affects contest participation. Drawing upon expectancy ...

摘要：Sensor-based home Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) monitoring systems have emerged to monitor elderly people's self-care ability remotely. However, the unobtrusive, privacy-friendly object motion sensor-based systems face challenges such as scarce labeled data and ADL performer confusion in a multi-resident setting. This study adopts the design science paradigm to develop an innovative deep transfer learning framework for human identification (DTL-HID) to address both challenges. A novel conv...

摘要：We discuss the economic impacts of the interplay between vertical integration and zero-rating for digital content. To this end, we develop a game-theoretic model that involves an Internet Service Provider (ISP), two competing content providers (CPs)-one an ad-supported CP, the other ad-free-and consumers. While previous studies have separately examined vertical integration and zero-rated content, none to our knowledge has explored the simultaneous interaction of both phenomena, which became ap...

摘要：Commitment to a neutral point of view is a pillar of Wikipedia culture. Despite a strong culture, the open nature of the community presents challenges for cultural assimilation. Central contributors who make up the community's core engage in activism to combat traditional forms of bias. However, peripheral contributors may not adopt or adhere to the community's cultural values and may reflect the very bias the community attempts to combat. These differences create tensions between central and ...

摘要：Most previous studies about online product recommendation sources (recommendation agents [RAs], consumers, and experts) have been limited to the evaluation by a single source on a website. Thus, the relative influence of convergent recommendations from different sources on consumers' acceptance of the advice remains largely unknown. We draw upon and extend the product uncertainty model to theorize how the convergence of recommendations from various sources differentially influences customers' ...

摘要：Deception is an unfortunate staple in group work. Guarding against team members' deceptive tactics and alternative agendas is difficult and may seem even more difficult in technology-driven business environments that have made multitasking during teamwork increasingly commonplace. This research develops a foundation for a nuanced theoretical understanding of deception detection under these conditions. The intersection of information technology multitasking and deception detection theories is s...

摘要：The proliferation of the Internet has enabled platform intermediaries to create two-sided markets in many industries. Time-series data on the number of customers on both sides of the markets allow platform intermediaries for estimating the direction and magnitude of network effects, which can then support growth predictions and subsequent information technology (IT) or marketing investment decisions. This article investigates the conditions under which this estimation of same-side and cross-si...
