E-negotiation System Development: Using Negotiation Protocols to Manage Software Components

A major challenge in developing an e-negotiation system (ENS) is that the system should fit into the context which varies with negotiation cases. To mitigate context dependency, we propose to separate e-negotiation protocols from ENS and adopt a component-oriented approach. In this paper, we present a framework for e-negotiation protocols that implements this approach. The framework has been tested by developing several ENSs of which two had been tested in laboratory negotiation experiments with more than 100 participants.     

论二语语用发展研究认知路向

“未来的研究需从心理学的不同角度，包括认知理论和社会文化理论考虑学习者的二语语用习得。”Kasper和Rose的这一设想，不仅为二语语用发展研究提出了新思路，也提出了挑战。建立在语用普遍性基础之上的二语语用发展研究，在继承传统语用研究成果的同时，汲取体验认知语用的研究成果，将概念能力发展和隐喻能力发展作为一种新的研究路向。这既有必要，也有可能。     

Agent-Based Facilitation of Water Allocation: Case Study in the Drome River Valley

The purpose of the 1992 French Water Act is to encourage negotiation and dialogue among local stakeholders within a framework which is very similar to a patrimonial approach. Potential use of models in such post-normal approaches is analyzed. Two kinds of models are compared: one is agent-based, the other follows a more classical approach. They are compared according to their contributions as negotiation support tools. This comparison is based on a specific collective decision process dealing with water allocation at the sub-basin scale, in which authors are involved. Both are used to support collective decision processes through simulation of resource use dynamics. Agent-Based Models entail the broadening of spatial information of actors in the process, revealing inter-connected topics not taken into consideration earlier. This makes it possible to remain relevant, despite the sometimes rapidly evolving stakes. The central point of this paper is the implementation, within a practical application, of theories advocating the use of ABM as a collective decision support system. This application promotes a better understanding of the kind of support ABM provides and the way it does so. This is brought about more by re-framing the discussion and modifying the representation of the system on the part of the stakeholders than by providing specific agreements.     

一体化经营企业的转移定价实证分析

为使企业总体利益最大化,在企业两个或数个不同的分部之间确定适当的价格和产量对一体化经营企业而言极为重要。同时,转移定价可作为一种分部之间的激励机制。采用边际成本等于边际收益的方法,可以得到不同的市场结构中最优的转移价格和产量。

Critical Situations for Decision Making: A Support Based on a Modelling Tool

This paper proposes to give a toll to help decision makers in critical situations. The principle of our research is based on a modelling approach for Cooperative Knowledge Based Systems. This approach is based on a Task/Method paradigm that we describe. We then propose to take into account collateral effects of tasks in order to support decision makers in a critical context. The proposed tool can then generate a degraded solution for which, collateral effects of previous tasks have been taken as new goals to reach. This study is possible thanks to the definition of several kinds of models: a Good Functioning Model and a Degraded Tasks Library.     

How do Scores of DIT and MJT Differ? A Critical Assessment of the Use of Alternative Moral Development Scales in Studies of Business Ethics

The construct of Cognitive Moral Development (CMD) has drawn much attention in the study of business ethics for over two decades. The Defining Issues Test (DIT) has made a significant contribution to the literature as an easy-to-administer CMD instrument, and the Moral Judgment Test (MJT), an alternative scale, has also been used widely especially in Europe. The two scales differ in their approaches to measuring CMD, focusing on stage preference (DIT) and stage consistency (MJT), yet empirical comparisons have been scarce. The present research empirically compares the two scales in terms of their correspondence with ethical ideology as a reference scale, and it demonstrates a clear distinction between the DIT and the MJT. Although they both aim to measure CMD, their dissimilar approaches lead to distinctly different implications.     

Does the “management approach” contribute to segment reporting transparency?

Segment reporting creates an opportunity for companies to add value to the information they disseminate about their industry and geographic operations. This article examines the “management approach” to segment reporting from a user perspective that should be of great interest to corporate financial executives. The management approach to segment reporting requires companies to report segment financial information consistent with the way they manage their businesses. We conclude that, despite more segment data being reported, the potential of the new management approach to significantly benefit users is compromised by uneven compliance among reporting companies. The complicity of external auditors in compliance shortcomings should concern all stakeholders in the financial reporting process. Noting two high-profile examples of accounting fraud, we comment on how the management approach sheds light on Enron's operations, while WorldCom concealed important segment information due to probable auditor malfeasance.     

布莱克—斯科尔斯期权定价公式的推导及推广

Black-Scholes期权定价模型是金融学中广泛应用的模型之一,该模型的提出是金融理论界和实践界的一场革命。Black、Scholes和Merton引入了动态套期保值组合的概念,期权的支付可以通过基础资产的动态组合策略复制。通过对期权定价理论的历史介绍及对该公式的几种推导方法进行分析,说明在其他金融衍生产品定价中的推广应用。     

基于ANSYS/APDL的面板堆石坝地震响应分析

在大型通用有限元软件ANSYS提供的数值平台基础上,用APDL语言编制了基于粘弹性模型的面板堆石坝地震响应等价线性法程序,将其应用于老挝某面板堆石坝的地震响应分析中。结果表明,在充分利用ANSYS已具备的线弹性材料动力分析功能的基础上,通过二次开发实现基于粘弹性模型的等价线性法,可为面板堆石坝地震响应分析提供有效分析途径。
