Cooperative nanosystems

Journal of Peptide Science, 2008
AbstractMultivalent systems are well known for their enhanced ability to bind multivalent counterparts. This contribution addresses the question whether they can also behave as cooperative catalysts. Analyzing examples from our own laboratory we show that self‐assembled systems obtained by covering gold nanoclusters with thiol‐terminated amino acids ...

From Cooperation to Cooperability

2008
In many countries of the European Union the system of Local Government is highly fragmented and characterized by the prevalence of small municipalities.

Cooperation and Expectations of Cooperation

Journal of Public Policy & Marketing, 1994
The results of both a survey of utility customers and an experiment using role-playing students support the hypothesis that a person is more likely to install load control devices on their heating or cooling units (cooperate) if he or she thinks that others will cooperate.

Reflections on Cooperation and Cooperatives

1986
Cooperation is looked upon favorably because it connotes collective economic organization without duress or exploitation. This conceptualization may underlie most thinking about the place of cooperative organization in today’s society and the modern economy.

Designing for cooperation: cooperating in design

Communications of the ACM, 1991
This article will discuss how to design computer applications that enhance the quality of work and products, and will relate the discussion to current themes in the field of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). Cooperation is a key element of computer use and work practice, yet here a specific “CSCW approach is not taken.” Instead the focus is ...

To Cooperate or Not to Cooperate?

2014
This chapter examines a phenomenon we observed in a real–life consortium and for which a proper academic explanation is still lacking: under the same challenging conditions, why do only a few inexperienced partners behave cooperatively in the formation process of R&D consortia?

On Learning to Cooperate

Journal of Economic Theory, 2002
The authors consider a version of a finitely-repeated prisoner's dilemma (PD) with large but fixed average length of players' lifetimes. At each time period \(r=1,\dots,n\) every member of the population plays a game \(\text{PD}(a,r)\) where it receives \(1\) if both players use the strategies \((CC)\) and \(-a^r, 1+a^r, 0\) in the case \((CD), (DC ...
