The Durability of Consumers' Durable Goods
Econometrica, 1960This paper illustrates the results obtained by adapting the model proposed by the authors in an earlier paper [6] to incorporate the method of estimating durability proposed by Nerlove [3]. It is found that in the cases examined the estimates of durability obtained in this way are very low.

ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review, 2013
Practical systems must often guarantee that changes to the system state are durable. Examples of such systems are databases, file systems, and messaging middleware with guaranteed delivery. One common way of implementing durability while keeping performance high is to use a log to persist updates to the system state.

Estimating the Durability of Consumers' Durable Goods
The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1972groups in our sample. It is quite likely that the higher an individual's permanent income prospect the higher the cost of incarceration and consequently the less likely will be the willingness to risk the act of purchase (or consumption). To the extent that permanent income prospects at present and total expenditures are positively correlated, then we ...

ASSUME that a supplier owns the total stock of a completely durable good. At what price will he sell it? To take a concrete example, assume that one person owns all the land in the United States and, to simplify the analysis, that all land is of uniform quality. Assume also that the landowner is not able to work the land himself, that ownership of land

The Meaning of Durability and Durability Prediction
1980The concept of durability is not well defined. The term durability is often used to imply the possession of qualities associated with long-life. In some standards for building components, it is nonquantitative and implies that design requirements are likely to be exceeded for the design service life or some other specified period.

On the durability of non-durable goods
Economics Letters, 1992Abstract Using both monthly and quarterly data, this paper shows that the durability rates of non-durable goods and services are significantly greater than zero, and in line with the prediction of the theory. The common practice of testing consumption and consumption-related models with the National Income and Product Account category of non-durables

For latency-critical transactional applications, durability is often what limits performance. That is, executing transactions is fast, but guaranteeing that they are durable is slow. As a result, most of each transaction's latency is attributable to durability.

ON THE TAXATION OF DURABLE GOODS [PDF]
International Economic Review, 2018 AbstractThis article proposes a dynamic Mirrleesian theory of commodity taxation in the presence of durable goods. A uniform taxation across all goods is suboptimal even when the consumption preferences are separable from labor. If the consumption utility function is strictly concave and durable stocks are adjustable without friction, durable ...
