Behavioral mechanism design

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2023
Abstract The authors make a convincing case that behavioral scientists have mistakenly focused on improving individual decision making and in so doing have deflected attention from necessary changes in the rules of the game – societal institutions and policies – that shape individual decisions.

Mechanical design

2007
AbstractThis chapter discusses various mechanical designs for STM and AFM. The central piece of the mechanical design of STM and AFM is the course positioner. Therefore, various types of course positioners are also discussed. The louse and the pocket-size STM are discussed first.

Mechanism Design and Payments [PDF]

open access: possible, 2005
We use mechanism design in order to study efficient arrangements when the ability of agents to perform certain welfare-improving transactions is subject to random and unobservable shocks. We study implementation via a payment system that involves assigning balances to participants and optimally adjusting these balances given their histories of ...

Mechanical design in arteries

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT The most important mechanical property of the artery wall is its non-linear elasticity. Over the last century, this has been well-documented in vessels in many animals, from humans to lobsters. Arteries must be distensible to provide capacitance and pulse-smoothing in the circulation, but they must also be stable to inflation ...

Incremental Mechanism Design [PDF]

open access: possible, 2018
Mechanism design has traditionally focused almost exclusively on the design of truthful mechanisms. There are several drawbacks to this: 1. in certainsettings (e.g. voting settings), no desirable strategyproof mechanisms exist; 2. truthful mechanisms are unable to take advantage of the fact that computationally bounded agents may not be able to find the

Mechanism Design Experiments

2008
Mechanism design is the art of designing institutions that align individual incentives with overall social goals. Mechanism design theory was initiated by Hurwicz (1972) and is surveyed in Groves and Ledyard (1987). To bridge the gap between a theoretical mechanism and an actual economic process that solves fundamental social problems, it is important ...

Stochastic Mechanism Design

2007
We study the problem of welfare maximization in a novel setting motivated by the standard stochastic two-stage optimization with recourse model. We identify and address algorithmic and game-theoretic challenges that arise from this framework. In contrast, prior work in algorithmic mechanism design has focused almost exclusively on optimization problems

Crowdsourcing Mechanism Design

2017
Crowdsourcing is becoming increasingly popular in various tasks. Although the cost incurred by workers in crowdsourcing is lower than that by experts, the possibility of errors in the former generally exceeds that of the latter. One of the important approaches to quality control of crowdsourcing is based on mechanism design, which has been used to ...

Mechanizing Privacy by Design

Proceedings of the 2025 ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security
Privacy by design requires integrating data protection into systems from the outset, during their design, rather than building it in later. Related legislation does not specify how to achieve this and mainstream languages and frameworks lack support for privacy by design.
