Penalty mechanism design

Computational and Mathematical Organization Theory, 2013
Penalty is a crucial approach to maintain society in order in both the legal and the political philosophies. How to establish a rational and efficient penalty mechanism is exceedingly important in practice in economics and politics and this paper explores the optimal mechanism design of penalty.

Evolutionary Mechanism Design

2023
The advent of large-scale distributed systems poses unique engineering challenges. In open systems such as the internet it is not possible to prescribe the behaviour of all of the components of the system in advance. Rather, we attempt to design infrastructure, such as network protocols, in such a way that the overall system is robust despite the fact ...

Mechanical Design Considerations

1985
Once the type and size of engine have been determined, the number and disposition of the cylinders have to be decided. Very often the decision will be influenced by marketing and packaging considerations, as well as whether or not the engine needs to be manufactured with existing machinery.

Monotonicity in Mechanism Design

2009
Consider a model with a finite number of alternatives, and buyers with private values and quasi-linear utility functions. A domain of valuations for a buyer is a monotonicity domain if every finite-valued monotone randomized allocation rule defined on it is implementable, in the sense that there exists a randomized truth-telling direct mechanism, which

Mechanism Design by Creditability

2007
This paper attends to the problem of a mechanism designer seeking to influence the outcome of a strategic game based on her creditability. The mechanism designer offers additional payments to the players depending on their mutual choice of strategies in order to steer them to certain decisions.

Challenges for Mechanism Design

2009
Mechanism Design has been the core of mechanical engineering and indeed of industrial engineering since the beginning of engineering practice and particularly in modern times. This has been motivated by the mechanical nature of tasks and interactions with machines that will be still fundamental in human-machine operations, although new and new ...

Contributions of Archimedes on mechanics and design of mechanisms

Mechanism and Machine Theory, 2014
Abstract Relevant contributions are ascribed to Archimedes as related to early developments in mechanics with application to mechanism design with a modern vision. Archimedes developed theoretical advances that were motivated by and applied to practical problems with an enthusiastic behaviour and with a modern spirit that can be summarized in his ...

Responsible Mechanism Design

Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
Traditionally, the goal of mechanism design was to promote socially desirable behaviour of rational agents, to achieve fairness, or to promote efficiency. I would like to suggest a new subfield of mechanism design, Responsible Mechanism Design, focused on achieving individual accountability of agents for their contributions to the outcome of collective
