Abstract:
Information provision experiments allow researchers to test economic theories and answer policy-relevant questions by varying the information set available to respondents. We survey the emerging literature using information provision experiments in economics and discuss applications in macroeconomics, finance, political economy, public economics, labor economics, and health economics. We also discuss design considerations and provide best-practice recommendations on how to (i) measure beliefs; (ii) design the information intervention; (iii) measure belief updating; (iv) deal with potential confounds, such as experimenter demand effects; and (v) recruit respondents using online panels. We finally discuss typical effect sizes and provide sample size recommendations.(JEL C90, D83, D91)

Abstract:
The article deals with modern approaches to the information provision of the functioning of innovative and integrated structures. The solution of the tasks set out in the article is carried out with the help of general scientific research methods, namely: analysis, systematization and generalization. The methodological and theoretical basis of the study served as the provisions of economic theory, theory of management, ideas and provisions set forth in scientific works on the problems of information provision of the functioning of innovative and integrated structures. It is noted that one of the main problems, the solution of which ensures survival and achieving the strategic goals of the entity are the effective management of it. At the same time, the management process requires an appropriate provision system, which, along with subsystems of methodological, organizational and managerial, includes information provision, which today is the most uncertain. It is substantiated that for optimal functioning of the entity, information provision should be fully integrated into its activities, and on the other hand - business should continuously experience support from information provision and receive maximum benefits from their use. Consequently, information security is shifted to the center of the enterprise management paradigm. The modern system of management of the entity is characterized by a complex information system, which is associated with the exchange of external and internal information flows, multivariation of types of information that circulates in the management system. Approaches to the definition of categories "Information" and "Information Provision" are considered. It is emphasized that the information provision is only "tools" to achieve the goals. It is proved that the information provision of the functioning of innovative - integrated structures is more complex. The priority of the creation and functioning of innovative and integrated structures and investigates the types of their information provision. It is proved that effective functioning of innovation-integrated structures is possible only in the effective use of adequate information provision, which is an instrument for making managerial decisions at all levels, the strategic resource of innovation - integrated structures.

Abstract:
Land is the vital base of a nation. Land is not only a natural economic resource, but also a special cultural and social basis for establishing our identity. Land is also the creative space of a nation. Among the many challenges facing to the Georgian state today is resolving the land issue. The issue of land is most fundamentally linked to the fate of the country, as territorial identity is the ground of national consciousness, and its maintenance is impossible without regulating land ownership and land use. The primary attribute of the creation of a state is the possession of a certain territory, and the determining factor in the strength of the state is a detailed study of the wealth of this territory, its successful management and the development of a strategy for the development of the country. It all depends a lot on who lives in the area and how it is managed. Therefore, the issue of land management and accounting is vital not only for our country, but for all countries of the world and for humanity in general. The historical aspiration of the Georgian state to become a full member of the European family, which includes the integration and compatibility of various fields or spheres with European standards. There is also the area of land administration. The ongoing democratic transformations in Georgia and the need to fully manage land reform, as one of its organic and important components, have raised the issue of improving the land market formation-development mechanism. World experience shows that the formation of the land market should be preceded by the creation of a unified state information system, a comprehensive land code, a land registration system, a land cadastre, which legally secures the land market. The development of the land (real estate) market should be preceded by land registration and cadastre, which are interrelated systems and complement each other. The Cadastre and all other registers containing officially registered data on land and land ownership constitute the land administration infrastructure. Cadastre is a French word meaning a description of something, a set of data about something. Cadastre This is a set of data compiled by an official body or agency (eg land, water, forestry, city, etc. cadastre). The land cadastre is used in a dual sense - narrow and territorial in the narrow sense, cadastral data are accurate graphical and textual information about the configuration and location of the border of the land, buildings on it, including a linear construction, as well as easements or other legal restrictions. And in a broad sense, a land cadastre is a set of data that includes information about the natural, economic, legal, environmental, economic state of the land and answers the questions "Who? Where? How much? How?" The land registry is to some extent maintained by the LEPP - the National Public Registry Agency. The land registry prepared by the agency answers the questions: Where? whose? How much? This information is also incomplete at the moment, because, despite the reforms carried out, the number of unregistered land plots is still high. It also doesn't answer the question, what kind? In Georgia, there is no complete production of the land cadastre, a single database has not been created, which should contain information on the natural, economic, legal, ecological and economic state of lands and fully answer the questions “Who?” Where? How much? as?" The land cadastre in Georgia was last conducted in 1985 at a time when there was only state ownership of land in the country. Georgia does not currently have a complete land cadastre production, therefore, a land cadastre production methodology should be developed, which, in the presence of various forms of land ownership, will allow us to obtain comprehensive information on land plots. The land cadastre system is the basis for the functioning of the economy of any country. Having a sound land registration system is one of the most important factors in promoting an effective land administration policy for all countries and ensuring the protection of private and public interests related to land ownership and investment. Effective systems of land administration and comprehensive land registration are the basis for the productive functioning of the market economy, the development of the agricultural sector and the sustainable and efficient management of land resources, which will significantly contribute to the sustainable growth and development of the economy.

Abstract:
An important mission of forensic accounting expertise is to identify and prevent economic crime. Today, scientists and practitioners mostly study procedural issues of forensic accounting expertise. Organizational and methodological principles ofthe prevention, identification and termination of economic offenses in the conditions of the accounting reform are not stud-ied efficiently. At the same time, today the possibilities of committing violations have expanded, state control over the activi-tiesof economic entities has significantly weakened, motivation for theft and other abuses has significantly increased.Practical need for forensic accounting expertise is due to the fact that investigators often experience difficulties in de-tecting distortions in the fact of economic activities of the enterprise and violations of financial discipline that caused materi-al losses for the enterprise. Thus, forensic accounting expertise is an important means of collecting evidence in many crimi-nal and civil casesof violation and abuse. A qualified opinion of an expert accountant contributes to the establishment of objective truth and a fair court decision. To provide the expert’s opinion, it is necessary to provide sources of information. Information sources of forensic accounting expertise are divided into legislative, normative, and factual. Authentic sources of information provided to the expert for study must meet the quality criteria (formal criterion, legality criterion, reality criteri-on, and validity criterion of carried out transaction).Documents, both accounting and non-accounting, reflect a variety of economic transactions. To identify unfavourable documents, the experts needs to consider that prescribing, paperwork can take place in hindsight, etc. To establish these vio-lations, you must check all related documents. However, the expert accountant must have not only knowledge of accounting, analysis and control, but also know the specifics of the business entity (branch of economy: construction, trade, agriculture) to provide a qualitative conclusion.

Abstract:
La qualité des décisions individuelles et collectives dépend de la quantité d’informations disponibles, de la capacité à les acquérir et de la connaissance des incitations et des préférences des autres agents. Cette thèse vise à étudier comment l'information est communiquée et apprise dans des environnements stratégiques multidimensionnels, et ce qui peut être fait pour réduire les motivations stratégiques et promouvoir la fourniture d'informations véridiques.La thèse peut être divisée en 2 parties. La première partie traite de l'agrégation d'informations sur les préférences dans des comités. Il suggère différents mécanismes de vote en comité qui possèdent des propriétés désirables et sont significativement plus simples pour les membres du comité que certains mécanismes classiques de la littérature. La deuxième partie de la thèse étudie les effets de la multidimensionnalité de l’environnement et de l’accès imparfait à l'information sur la communication stratégique et sur la formation et la polarisation des croyances.Le chapitre 1 examine le problème de l'agrégation des préférences dans un comité qui doit choisir une alternative parmi plusieurs alternatives, comme un comité de recrutement. Nous proposons une nouvelle classe de mécanismes de vote simultané dans lesquels chaque équilibre de Nash est coalition-proof . L'article étudie ensuite les conditions nécessaires pour qu’un mécanisme mettent en œuvre une règle Pareto efficace garantissant que chaque équilibre est coalition-proof et montre que la présence de droits de veto dans le mécanisme est inévitable pour réaliser cette notion de double mise en œuvre.Le chapitre 2 examine les situations dans lesquelles un comité doit choisir entre deux alternatives. Cette situation presente un intérêt particulier pour diverses institutions politiques telles que le Parlement européen ou le Congrès américain. Nous concevons deux mécanismes, un simultané et un séquentiel, qui garantissent que l'option majoritaire l'emporte dans tous les équilibres. L’existence du mécanisme simultané surmonte les récents résultats d’impossibilité concernant la mise en œuvre de la règle majoritaire. La version séquentielle du mécanisme permet d’atteindre le résultat (correct) en beaucoup moins d’étapes que le vote par appel nominal.Le chapitre 3 se concentre sur la communication stratégique dans des environnements multidimensionnels. Il considère un jeu multidimensionnel émetteur-récepteur dans lequel le récepteur peut acquérir des informations limitées après avoir observé le signal de l’émetteur. En fonction des paramètres décrivant le conflit d'intérêts entre l'émetteur et le récepteur, il caractérise la strategie optimale de divulgation des informations et les informations acquises par le récepteur. Le chapitre montre que dans le cas de conflits d’intérêts partiels (alignés sur certaines dimensions et mal alignés sur d’autres), l’émetteur utilise la multidimensionnalité de l’environnement pour détourner l’attention du récepteur des dimensions de désalignement des intérêts. L’article présente des applications au choix des consommateurs et au lobbying informationnel.Le chapitre 4 démontre l’existence d’un nouveau mécanisme de polarisation des croyances des agents bayésiens dans le cas où ces derniers observent la même information. Le mécanisme est basé sur la réduction de dimension présente dans l'information: l'état de nature est d'une dimension supérieure à l'espace du signal et chaque signal est une projection de l'état réel sur l'espace du signal. Les agents interprètent différemment ces informations en fonction de leurs convictions antérieures ou de leur niveau d'expertise. Le chapitre caractérise les conditions dans lesquelles cette divergence de croyances se produit et propose des interprétations du point de vue des médias et de leurs effets sur la polarisation de l'opinion
The quality of individual and collective decisions depends significantly on the amount of information available, on the ability to acquire it and on the knowledge of the incentives and preferences of other agents. This thesis aims to study how information is communicated and learned in strategic multidimensional environments, and what can be done to reduce the strategic motives and to promote truthful information provision.The thesis can be divided in 2 parts. The first part, consisting of 2 chapters, both joint with Matias Nunez, deals with the aggregation of information regarding preference in committees in varied settings. It suggests different mechanisms for committee voting which have some desirable properties which most of the currently used mechanisms lack, and are significantly easier for the committee members than some classic mechanisms in the literature. The second part of the thesis studies the effects of the multidimensionality of the environments and of an imperfect access to information on strategic communication (Chapter 3) and on beliefs formation and polarization (Chapter 4).Chapter 1 considers the problem of preference aggregation in a small committee which needs to choose one alternative from the set of many such as a hiring committees. We propose the first class of simultaneous voting mechanisms in which each Nash equilibrium is coalition-proof thus preventing coordination failures. The paper then studies necessary conditions for arbitrary mechanisms to implement a Pareto efficient rule ensuring that each equilibrium is coalition-proof and shows that the presence of veto rights in the mechanism is unavoidable to achieve this double implementation notion.Chapter 2 considers the settings in which a committee needs to choose one alternative from the set of two which is of a particular relevance for the variety of political institutions such as the European Parliament or the US Congress. We design two mechanisms, one simultaneous and one sequential, that ensure that the majority preferred option wins in all equilibria. The existence of the simultaneous mechanism overcomes recent impossibility results concerning the implementation of majority rule. The sequential version of the mechanism allows to reach the (correct) outcome in significantly fewer steps than the widely used roll call voting. The results extend to the settings in which voter can abstain or have incomplete information about the preferences of others.Chapter 3 focuses on strategic communication in multidimensional environments. It considers a multidimensional Sender-Receiver game in which Receiver can acquire limited information after observing the Sender’s signal. Depending on the parameters describing the conflict of interest between Sender and Receiver, it characterises optimal information disclosure and the information acquired by Receiver as a response. The chapter shows that in the case of partial conflict of interests (aligned on some dimensions and misaligned on others) Sender uses the multidimensionality of the environment to divert Receiver’s attention away from the dimensions of misalignment of interests. The paper present applications to consumer’s choice and informational lobbying.Chapter 4 uses some techniques developed in Chapter 3 and demonstrates a novel channel for polarization of beliefs of Bayesian agents as a reaction to the same information. The mechanism is based on the dimension reduction present in information: the state of nature is of a higher dimension than the signal space and each signal is a projection of the true state on the signal space. Agents interpret differently such information depending on their prior beliefs or level of expertise. The chapter characterizes conditions under which this divergence of beliefs occurs, and provides interpretations from the perspective of media and its effect on opinion polarization

Mylonopoulos, Nikolaos. "The governance of information technology service provision." Thesis, University of Warwick, 1999. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/34705/.

Full text
Abstract:
The governance of information technology (IT) service provision entails all those elements of the structure and process of contracting and organisation that are necessary in order to deliver effective and efficient IT services within today's organisations. This thesis develops a framework integrating those elements of governance with a view to explaining actual governance structures and to guiding relevant decisions in practice. Until the late 1980s, the principal concerns with respect to the organisation of IT activities revolved around the issues of centralisation versus decentralisation and end-user computing versus specialist control. Whilst contracts for various systems and services have always been a significant part of the IT department's activity, the issue of structuring such contracts took a prominent position on the management agenda in the beginning of 1990s with the proliferation of large contracts of the 'total outsourcing' kind. IT outsourcing rekindled interest in and reshaped the agenda of the organisation of IT provision. The debate on IT outsourcing provided the motivation and the starting point of this thesis. Thus, chapter 1 reviews this debate and, following on the opinion of others, recasts the question of 'whether to outsource or not' as 'how to set up the governance (i. e. the structure and process of contracting and organisation) of IT service provision'. In order to shed some light on the elements of governance, chapter 2 turns on a range of economic theories of the firm. These theories are critically reviewed and some preliminary suggestions as to how they might inform the governance of IT are put forth. The chapter concludes by setting the theoretical foundations for the rest of the thesis. The notion of a governance continuum between the ideal pure market and the ideal pure hierarchy is introduced. Actual governance structures, it is argued, can be placed on this continuum as individual instances. Before advancing onto more substantive work, chapter 3 pauses to reflect on the epistemological basis of this research project. The main principles of the epistemological position adopted here are taken from the philosophical arguments of transcendental realism. The implications of this epistemological position for the empirical methods and the theoretical claims made in this thesis are also examined. Chapter 4 documents an intensive case study at British Petroleum Plc. The purpose of this case study was to draw lessons from practice and to assess the relevance of the theories of chapter 2. This case study was an interactive learning process through which the researcher sought access to management practice in order to assess economic theories, while the managers at BP sought a broader understanding of IT outsourcing. The outcome of this interaction was the S-CAGE framework which coupled theoretical insights with practical relevance. The S-CAGE (Service Clustering And Governance Establishment) framework is described in detail in chapter 5. It is put forth as both an explanatory and a normative account of the governance of IT service provision. It is based on the notion of governance continuum, it introduces the idea of grouping services into clusters and it provides a classification of the elements of governance that should be customised to the characteristics of each cluster of services. Chapter 6 presents two further case studies aimed at evaluating the usefulness of SCAGE in understanding and explaining alternative outsourcing practices. ICI and Anglian Water have been visited for this purpose. On the basis of these cases, the concluding chapter summarises the strengths and limitations of the proposed framework. An attempt is also made to set forth some preliminary theoretical ideas extending the notions of clustering and governance continuum. The thesis concludes with a final short illustration of the use of the S-CAGE framework.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the generation of a framework for addressing soil data needs, specifically for biophysical modelling. The soil system is an important ecosystem actor, supporting most of the worlds' food production and being the major terrestrial carbon stocks, thereby information about it is crucial for management and policy making. To provide this information, it is important to deliver information of the highest possible quality; thus the need to define guidelines to standardise, not only the methodologies, but the minimum requirements that information must meet. In this project, providing soil data is addressed in two ways. The first scenario investigates the use of soil information to predict other soil properties, using pedotransfer function (PTFs). In the second scenario, it is assumed that the end-user does not have extra information about the soil properties at a specific location. In this case, the use of existing soil maps is a traditional solution, thus a framework for generating maps at national/continental scale, using digital soil mapping (DSM) techniques, is proposed.

The literature relating to women's health in Africa focuses on health information seeking needs. It rarely focuses on how women's health information needs link to the development of the continent. The dissertation examines the interrelationships between women's health information needs and development. The study sought to establish the significance of information to women's health and development. In order to validate this link the study employed three data collection techniques - documentary research, interviews and electronic mail questionnaires. In illustrating that there is a relationship between women's health and development, the study argues that women's empowerment can only be achieved where sufficient information is provided for women to make informed independent decisions concerning health issues that affect them. This relates especially to when to have children; how to protect themselves against AIDS, what the early warning signals of breast and cervical cancer are, and how best to look after their children and the community at large. The study further argues that these types of challenges can only be met with an efficient and effective health information service that is both gender sensitive and context specific to the African continent.

This thesis studies information provision in two contexts: online rating systems and traffic information systems. In the first part of the thesis, we develop a model of Bayesian learning from online reviews and investigate the conditions for asymptotic learning of the quality of a product. Moreover, we characterize the speed of learning under different rating systems and characterize the impact of information provision on the speed of learning. In the model, a sequence of potential customers after observing the ratings of the product, and based on their ex ante valuation, decide whether to purchase. If they purchase, the true quality of the product, their ex ante valuation and ex post valuation determine their overall satisfaction. Given the rating system of the platform, they decide to leave a review as a function of their overall satisfaction. We study learning dynamics under two classes of rating systems: full history, where customers see the full history of reviews, and summary statistics, where the platform reports some summary statistics of past reviews. In both cases, we characterize the asymptotic speed of learning and show that the incentivizes of the platform is aligned with maximizing the speed of learning. We then study the design of rating systems in terms of information collection and information provision schemes. In particular, we identify situations in which providing more information leads to slower learning. In the second part of the thesis, we develop a framework for systematically analyzing how changes in the information sets of users in a traffic network (e.g., due to route guidance systems) impact the traffic equilibrium, and show the conditions under which even those with access to additional information may suffer greater congestion. To this regard, we first introduce a new class of congestion games in which users have differing information sets about the available edges and can only use routes consisting of edges in their information set. We then define the notion of information constrained Wardrop equilibrium for this class of congestion games and establish its existence and uniqueness. Finally, we turn to our main question formulated in the forms of Informational Braess' Paradox (IBP), which extends the classic Braess' Paradox in traffic equilibria. IBP asks whether users receiving additional information can become worse off. We provide a comprehensive answer to this question by providing a tight characterization of network topologies under which IBP emerges.

Lamont, Deborah Margaret. "Understanding and addressing dyslexia in travel information provision." Thesis, University of the West of England, Bristol, 2008. http://eprints.uwe.ac.uk/16861/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis synthesises two previously disparate fields of study by investigating the attitudes and aspirations of dyslexic people regarding travel information provision. One of the first in-depth qualitative studies of its kind is presented, with the findings having significance for academia, professionals and government. There are four main parts to the thesis. Part 1 considers the literature review. Part 2 presents the empirical research strategy adopted (a series of focus groups and a travel ethnography study). Following this, Part 3 presents the empirical research findings. Finally, Part 4 concludes the thesis, introducing discussion of the key findings, the contribution of the research to the fields of study, and avenues for further research in this area. It is clear that the attitude towards disabled people is changing. However, dyslexic people are experiencing the benefits of the social model of disability at a considerably slower rate than other disabled people. This is clearly the case across the transport industry, particularly within travel information provision. At present the distinct needs of dyslexic people are being lost within a 'design-for-all strategy'. Essentially, dyslexic people are facing limited travel horizons and mobility-related exclusion as a result. This thesis effectively supports the drive towards greater recognition and awareness of (and support for) dyslexia within the transport industry. Although the research provides much to consider, it constitutes an important opportunity to positively change this aspect of life for dyslexic people. Dyslexic-friendly travel information can ameliorate the access barriers to transport, which in turn could broaden the travel horizons of these individuals. For Government, the subsequent effects of better information access upon public transport patronage and use of the road network (and the perceptions of the transport industry as a whole) could be extremely positive. It is also certain that the research has the potential to further embed the social model of disability within dyslexia. By changing the fundamental attitudes of the transport industry towards dyslexia would provide a positive step forward in achieving greater social inclusion for dyslexic people. This in turn could provide greater access to opportunities previously unavailable, create better social opportunities, and more positive life experiences.

Abstract:
Abstract As information relating to manufacturing becomes more complex, it is inevitable that information overload will occur. When the information cannot be retrieved with ease, it is human nature to work without it. This paper discusses the use of an open hypermedia system, to resolve this problem. To be viable the hypermedia resource base must operate factory wide, and not centered on a single piece of plant. However the scale of the problem introduces a wide range of problems. We present a number of methodologies that need to be implemented to ensure that the introduction of hypermedia on the factory floor is successful. By considering two industrial applications, it is shown that in all cases information is retrieved faster and to a higher quality than current practice.

Abstract:
Air pollution is one of the primary causes of premature death worldwide. This paper examines the cost-effectiveness of two different air quality information programs that were implemented as part of randomized control trials. In the case of the SMS air quality alerts in Mexico City, we find that the program was not cost-effective in the experimental sample, but it would likely be cost-effective if the program were extended to all of Mexico City. In the case of real-time feedback on wood stove emissions in Valdivia, we find that the program was cost-effective in both the experimental sample and at scale.
