Why do patents facilitate trade in technology? Testing the disclosure and appropriation effects

Gaétan Jean A de Rassenfosse

Evidence suggests that patents facilitate technology transactions but the reasons for the effect are unclear. Patents may assist trade in technology by either: (i) protecting buyers against the expropriation of the idea (the 'appropriation effect'); or (ii ...

Children’s Peer Assessment and Self-disclosure in the Presence of an Educational Robot

Pierre Dillenbourg, Séverin Lemaignan, Shruti Chandra, Ana Paiva

Research in education has long established how children mutually influence and support each other's learning trajectories, eventually leading to the development and widespread use of learning methods based on peer activities. In order to explore children's ...

CoShare: A Cost-effective Data Sharing System for Data Center Networks

Karl Aberer, Rameez Rahman, Hao Zhuang, Imen Filali

Numerous research groups and other organizations collect data from popular data sources such as online social networks. This leads to the problem of data islands, wherein all this data is isolated and lying idly, without any use to the community at large. ...

Transparency Instead of Neutrality

Adrian Perrig, Christos Pappas

The technical community has so far defined network neutrality in terms of specific mechanisms, e.g., policing or shaping. We argue that these definitions are problematic: according to them, a non-neutral network may be preferable (for all users) to a neutr ...

Distributed throughput optimization over P2P mesh networks using diffusion adaptation

Ali H. Sayed

This work develops a decentralized adaptive strategy for throughput maximization over peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. The adaptive strategy can cope with changing network topologies, is robust to network disruptions, and does not rely on central processors. T ...
