Smart Contract: Attacks and Protections
IEEE Access, 2020 Smart contracts are programs that reside within decentralized blockchains and are executed pursuant to triggered instructions. A smart contract acts in a similar way to a traditional agreement but negates the necessity for the involvement of a third ...

Contracting planar graphs to contractions of triangulations
Journal of Discrete Algorithms, 2011 For every graph $H$, there exists a polynomial-time algorithm deciding if a planar input graph $G$ can be contracted to~$H$. However, the degree of the polynomial depends on the size of $H$. In this paper, we identify a class of graphs $\cal C$ such that for every $H \in \cal C$, there exists an algorithm deciding in time $f(|V(H)|) \cdot |V(G)|^{\bigO{

Contract theory and EU contract law [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015 This paper explores the relationship between contract theory and European contract law. In particular, it confronts the leading contract law theories with the main characteristics of EU contract law. The conclusion is that the two do not match well. In particular, monist normative contract theories are largely irreconcilable with the contract law of ...

Vaccine literacy is undervalued
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019 Despite weak health literacy is considered a concause of vaccine hesitancy, it is rarely taken into account when discussing about this subject. The association between health literacy skills and vaccine acceptance has been shown to be uneven when using ...

Proceedings of the 24th ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2023 We explore the deliberate infusion of ambiguity into the design of contracts. We show that when the agent is ambiguity‐averse and hence chooses an action that maximizes their minimum utility, the principal can strictly gain from using an ambiguous contract, and this gain can be arbitrarily high.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
