Economica, 2022 Because of sorting, more skilled workers are more productive in higher‐type firms. They also learn at different rates about their productivity and therefore expect different wage paths across firms. We show that under strict supermodularity, there is always positive assortative matching: differential learning is always dominated by the impact of ...

Scientific Reports, 2022 Abstract In pairwise interactions assortativity in cognition means that pairs where both decision-makers use the same cognitive process are more likely to occur than what happens under random matching. In this paper, we study both the mechanisms determining assortativity in cognition and its effects.

Batch Assorting for Worker-Following Assortment Carts in Parallel-Aisle Order-Assorting Systems
IEEE Access, 2022 This study introduces an order-assorting system (OAS) in a distribution center. The system supports assortments with worker-following carts. The workers and worker-following carts move during an order-assortment operation before which the binning operation splits the large-volume stock-keeping units (SKUs) into bins according to the number of aisles ...
