Contagion and efficiency

Journal of Economic Theory, 2008
We consider a population of agents, either finite or countably infinite, located on an arbitrary network. Agents interact directly only with their immediate neighbors, but are able to observe the behavior of (some) other agents beyond their interaction neighborhood, and learn from that behavior by imitating successful actions.

On the efficient synthesis of efficient programs

Computer Compacts, 1983
Abstract Efficiency is a problem in automatic programming—both in the programs produced and in the synthesis process itself. The efficiency problem arises because many target-language programs (which vary in their time and space performance) typically satisfy one abstract specification. This paper presents a framework for using analysis and searching

An Efficient Quasidictionary

2002
We define a quasidictionary to be a data structure that supports the following operations: check-in(v) inserts a data item v and returns a positive integer tag to be used in future references to v; check-out(x) deletes the data item with tag x; access(x) inspects and/or modifies the data item with tag x.

Knowing efficiency: the enactment of efficiency in efficiency auditing

Accounting, Organizations and Society, 1999
Abstract This paper reports an ethnographic study of the activities of auditors in the field as they work to fulfil an efficiency auditing mandate; it analyses how auditors report on efficiency in practice. Miller and Rose's work on governmentality ( Miller & Rose (1990) . Governing economic Life.

Efficiently learning efficient programs

2017
Discovering efficient algorithms is central to computer science. In this thesis, we aim to discover efficient programs (algorithms) using machine learning. Specifically, we claim we can efficiently learn programs (Claim 1), and learn efficient programs (Claim 2).

On the Efficiency of Algorithms

Journal of the ACM, 1970
A definition is given of the efficiency of an algorithm considered as a whole. This immediately raises the question of whether it is possible to find the most efficient or “optimum” algorithm. It is shown that an optimization problem of this kind is effectively solvable if and only if the set of arguments with which one is concerned is a finite one ...

Memory Efficiency

Journal of the ACM, 1959
Memory is the heart of today's electronic computers—memory serving as a fast-access storage unit and also being used in the execution of computer commands. The problem of memory efficiency, therefore, is one of great importance. Complete efficiency has not yet been attained and research to achieve it has been up to now rather limited.

Efficient Efficiencies Analysis

The Antitrust Bulletin, 2015
Efficiencies analysis is both an important area and one where research efforts can be particularly productive. Thinking of efficiencies and competitive effects together as components of a unified analysis is a productive conceptual framework and one that may yield methodological advances.
