Determinants Of Adopter Categories Using Innovation Diffusion Models, Vijay Mahajan, Eitan Muller, Rajendra Kumar Srivastava
Determinants Of Adopter Categories Using Innovation Diffusion Models, Vijay Mahajan, Eitan Muller, Rajendra Kumar Srivastava
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Using the analytical logic underlying the classical adopter categorization approach proposed by Rogers, the authors suggest that adopter categories for a product innovation can also be developed by using other well-established diffusion models such as the Bass model. With data on 11 consumer durable products, they compare adopter categories generated by the classical approach and the Bass diffusion model, respectively. An application examining the diffusion of personal computers is documented to illustrate the usefulness of the adopter categorization based on the Bass diffusion model in studying differences among adopter categories.

A Commentary On Professor Fisher’S Thesis: Ideology, Religion, Private Property And The Supreme Court 1987-88, Howard Hunter
A Commentary On Professor Fisher’S Thesis: Ideology, Religion, Private Property And The Supreme Court 1987-88, Howard Hunter
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The most important lessons to be learned from Professor Fisher's paper are that the ideologies central to American law have roots in religious thought and that the influence of ideologies can be found throughout American law, perhaps most especially in judicial decisions. To these lessons we can add a third: the ideologies embodied in judicial decisions concerning private property in the period from the American Revolution to the Civil War are still with us. Three recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court' illustrate the continuing importance of the constitutional and ideological protection of private property, while offering an interesting …
Parallel Imports And The Intellectual Property Rights In Singapore, Sze Shun, George Wei
Parallel Imports And The Intellectual Property Rights In Singapore, Sze Shun, George Wei
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Parallel imports is a term used to describe a situation where articles made and sold in one country (the country of manufacture), are imported into another country (the country of importation), without the consent of the owner or licensee of the intellectual property rights in the country of importation. … The issue which has arisen concerns the extent to which intellectual property rights in the country of importation can be used to seal off the domestic market and repel such imports. …
Jurisprudential Oaks From Mythical Acorns: The Hart‐Dworkin Debate Revisited, Andrew B.L. Phang
Jurisprudential Oaks From Mythical Acorns: The Hart‐Dworkin Debate Revisited, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
This article attempts to demonstrate, via the famous Hart-Dworkin debate on the nature and functions of judicial discretion, that substantial jurisprudential disputes as well as theories can, and do, arise from misconceived critiques, whether intended or otherwise. It also seeks to show that, whilst Dworkin's initial critique of Hart was misconceived, his theory of adjudication that arose as a result of responses to his initial views is a positive contribution to learning, although I argue that Dworkin's views are not, in the final analysis, sufficiently persuasive to constitute a radical departure from Hart's own views.
Whither Economic Duress? Reflections On Two Recent Cases, Andrew B.L. Phang
Whither Economic Duress? Reflections On Two Recent Cases, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
From its rather tentative and extremely recent beginnings, I the law relating to economic duress has developed at a relatively rapid pace during the last decade or so. We have had a series of decisions from various courts and jurisdictions* which, collectively at least, affirm the existence of the doctrine in English law. The pronouncements at the highest levels, however, have not purported to be definitive, and, as we shall see, have certainly not aided in a clarification and systematization of the doctrine of economic duress. The two recent decisions, which are the subject of the present comment, have merely …
Reception Of English Law In Singapore: Problems And Proposed Solutions, Andrew B.L. Phang
Reception Of English Law In Singapore: Problems And Proposed Solutions, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The problems pertaining to the reception of English law in Singapore are both numerous and complex. The academic literature generated in the local sphere alone is relatively large. It must, however, be conceded that, from apractical point of view, there has been very little interest or at least discussion. One cannot, of course, be sure about this observation, save for the very strong indication that takes the form of the overwhelming lack of litigation in the area, thus rendering it merely (so it appears) an academic monopoly. It should, however, be pointed out that this rather phlegmatic approach in practice …
Trellis-Coded Multidimensional Phase Modulation, S. S. Pietrobon, Robert H. Deng
Trellis-Coded Multidimensional Phase Modulation, S. S. Pietrobon, Robert H. Deng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A 2L-dimensional multiple phase-shift keyed (L×MPSK) signal set is obtained by forming the Cartesian product of L two-dimensional MPSK signal sets. A systematic approach to partitioning L×MPSK signal sets that is based on block coding is used. An encoder system approach is developed. It incorporates the design of a differential precoder, a systematic convolutional encoder, and a signal set mapper. Trellis-coded L×4PSK, L×8PSK, and L×16PSK modulation schemes are found for 1⩽L⩽4 and a variety of code rates and decoder complexities, many of which are fully transparent to discrete phase rotations of the signal set. The new codes achieve asymptotic coding …
Exclusive And Inclusive Decays Of B Mesons Into Ds Mesons, D. Bortoletto, Manoj Thulasidas
Exclusive And Inclusive Decays Of B Mesons Into Ds Mesons, D. Bortoletto, Manoj Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We have studied the production of Ds mesons in the decays of B mesons at the Υ(4S) resonance. We report on the first observation of exclusive B-meson decays B->Ds−D*+, B→Ds−D+, and B→Ds−D0. We also present a new measurement of the branching ratio and the momentum spectrum for the inclusive decay B→DsX.

Measurement Of The C+ Decay-Asymmetry Parameter, Avery, P.; Et Al., M. Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We report a measurement of polarization in the two-body decay c+, in nonresonant e+e- interactions from data taken with the CLEO detector. Using these data we have determined the parity-violating asymmetry decay parameter c to be -1.0-0.0+0.4. We see no evidence for significant c+ polarization.

We report on the observation of ; mesons from T(4S) decays which are too energetic to come from 8 mesons. These events provide evidence for non-88 decays of the T (4S). The measured rate is B(T(4S)+fX)=0.22•0.06•0.041 for ; momentum above 2 GeV/c.
Dividend Policy And Tax Structure, Kian Guan Lim
Dividend Policy And Tax Structure, Kian Guan Lim
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
We show that a certain class of progressive tax structure induces an optimal dividend policy which is autogressive in nature. The theoritical model is consistent with empirically observed dividend policies.
Icac And The Community, Mark Findlay
Icac And The Community, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Recently the language of 'community' has been widely used in the official discourse of criminal justice administration in Australia, in an obvious effort to legitimate new developments away from more traditional crime control. Commentators are now asking, why all this 'community speak' about policing, mediation, and corrections? As regards the 'community' perspective of anti-corruption initiatives, it is an attempt to transfer to the new institutions and processes some of the more positive implications which are assumed to flow from community allegiance.
Welfare Implications Of Hdb Policy On The Public Housing Price Gradient, Sock Yong Phang
Welfare Implications Of Hdb Policy On The Public Housing Price Gradient, Sock Yong Phang
Research Collection School Of Economics
In Singapore, extensive government intervention in the housing market has resulted in much deviation from assumptions made in the simple neoclassical urban models. The monocentric model of urban structure is extended to incorporate a subsidized public housing market in which the government-determined price gradient is flatter than the private housing price gradients. The propositionthat the utility of public housing households varies inversely with residential location distance from the CBD is empirically tested by estimating net returns to public housing using resale market data. It was found that net returns decreased with distance from the CBD.
High Rate Concatenated Coding Systems Using Multidimensional Bandwidth Efficient Inner Codes, Robert H. Deng, Daniel J. Jr. Costello
High Rate Concatenated Coding Systems Using Multidimensional Bandwidth Efficient Inner Codes, Robert H. Deng, Daniel J. Jr. Costello
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A concatenated coding system using two-dimensional trellis-coded MPSK inner codes and Reed-Solomon outer codes for application in high-speed satellite communication systems was proposed previously by the authors (ibid., vol.37, no.5, p.420-7, May 1989). The authors extend their results to systems using symbol-oriented, multidimensional, trellis-coded MPSK inner codes. The concatenated coding systems are divided into two classes according to their achievable effective information rates. The first class uses multidimensional trellis-coded 8-PSK inner codes and achieves effective information rates around 1 b/dimension (spectral efficiency 2 b/s/Hz). The second class employs multidimensional trellis-coded 16-PSK inner codes and provides effective information rates around 1.5 …

Show Trials In China: The Aftermath Of Tiananmen Square, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
After the military massacre in Tiananmen Square on 4 June it came as no surprise that the nominated 'rioters and counter revolutionaries' would soon be paraded before the courts. Even in the People's Republic of China, where a formal criminal court structure is a comparatively recent addition to the social control framework, the trial process is being employed as an immediate state response to community disjuncture and political challenge.
Exception Clauses And Negligence-The Influence Of Contract On Bailment And Tort, Andrew B.L. Phang
Exception Clauses And Negligence-The Influence Of Contract On Bailment And Tort, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Judgments at first instance have rarely been the subject of comment.' The recent decision of Steyn J in Singer Co (UK) Ltd v Tees and Hartlepool Port Authority,2 however, merits consideration for at least three reasons. First, it focuses upon important issues in the law of bailment, at least one of which has hitherto only been considered at first instance in any event. Secondly, the decision provokes thought on the much broader issue of the effect of exception clauses upon the general duty of care in tort, in particular whether the reasoning in the bailment context could be extended and …
A Direct Test Of Rock's Model Of The Pricing Of Unseasoned Issues, Francis Koh, Terry Walter
A Direct Test Of Rock's Model Of The Pricing Of Unseasoned Issues, Francis Koh, Terry Walter
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Unique data availability and institutional arrangements for new issues in Singapore allow a direct test of the empirical implications of Rock's model of pricing unseasoned new issues. Our empirical results are consistent with the model. Specifically we find that the unseasoned new issues' anomaly disappears when the rationing associated with new issues is incorporated into the analysis. The winner's curse is evident in allocation patterns used in Singapore.
Differential Perceptions In Auditing Terms, Pearl Tan, Hian Chye Koh, Aik Meng Low
Differential Perceptions In Auditing Terms, Pearl Tan, Hian Chye Koh, Aik Meng Low
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
This paper investigates the differences in the relative perceptions of auditing terms among groups of accountants, bankers and students. Perceptual models were constructed using multi-dimensional scaling and cluster analysis techniques. The models derived therefrom indicate that there are no major inter-group differences in the relative perceptions of auditing terms. This study does not therefore support the hypothesis that the “expectation gap” between users and preparers of the audit report are caused by semantical problems.
Of Codes And Ideology: Some Notes On The Origins Of The Major Criminal Enactments Of Singapore, Andrew B.L. Phang
Of Codes And Ideology: Some Notes On The Origins Of The Major Criminal Enactments Of Singapore, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
This article, as its title suggests, surveys the historical background to the major criminal enactments of Singapore. As a subsidiary function, it also attempts to illustrate the possible ideology underlying the enactment of one particular statute, viz., the Penal Code - a possibility that might point the way toward broader conclusions as well as studies encompassing the role and function of the law in colonial Singapore from a more general point of view.
Parity Retransmission Hybrid Arq Using Rate 1/2 Convolutional Codes On A Nonstationary Channel, L. R. Lugand, D. J. Costello, Jr., Robert H. Deng
Parity Retransmission Hybrid Arq Using Rate 1/2 Convolutional Codes On A Nonstationary Channel, L. R. Lugand, D. J. Costello, Jr., Robert H. Deng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A parity retransmission hybrid automatic repeat request (ARQ) scheme is proposed which uses rate 1/2 convolutional codes and Viterbi decoding. A protocol is described which is capable of achieving higher throughputs than previously proposed parity retransmission schemes. The performance analysis is based on a two-state Markov model of a nonstationary channel. This model constitutes a first approximation to a nonstationary channel. The two-state channel model is used to analyze the throughput and undetected error probability of the protocol presented when the receiver has both an infinite and a finite buffer size. It is shown that the throughput improves as the …
Competitive Groups As Cognitive Communities: The Case Of The Scottish Knitwear Manufacturers, Joseph F. Porac, Howard Thomas, Charles Baden-Fuller
Competitive Groups As Cognitive Communities: The Case Of The Scottish Knitwear Manufacturers, Joseph F. Porac, Howard Thomas, Charles Baden-Fuller
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
This article explores how the mental models of organizational strategists determine perceptions of competing organizations and responses to competitive conditions. We first outline a cognitive perspective for discussing competitive strategy, and then use this framework to analyse the particular case of the Scottish knitwear industry. We show how the structure of that industry both determines and is determined by managerial perceptions of the environment. We conclude by drawing out a few general implications of our framework for research and theory on competitive strategy.
Sugar Coated Bullets: Corruption And The New Economic Order In China, Mark Findlay, Thomas Chor-Wing Chiu
Sugar Coated Bullets: Corruption And The New Economic Order In China, Mark Findlay, Thomas Chor-Wing Chiu
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The recent political debate concerning the influence of corruption on the “new economic order” in the People's Republic of China is unique not only for its detailed and public manifestations, but also because it works around the acceptance of some degree of corporate private ownership of the means of production within China. The concern for corruption in Chinese government and commerce is not, of itself, novel.We prefer in this paper briefly to focus on the economic and political environment from within which this concern has been generated, to comment on the significance for the Government of the PRC in associating …

High Rate Concatenated Coding Systems Using Bandwidth Efficient Trellis Inner Codes, Robert H. Deng, D. J. Costello, Jr.
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
High-rate concatenated coding systems with bandwidth-efficient trellis inner codes and Reed-Solomon (RS) outer codes are investigated for application in high-speed satellite communication systems. Two concatenated coding schemes are proposed. In one the inner code is decoded with soft-decision Viterbi decoding, and the outer RS code performs error-correction-only decoding (decoding without side information). In the other the inner code is decoded with a modified Viterbi algorithm, which produces reliability information along with the decoded output. In this algorithm, path metrics are used to estimate the entire information sequence, whereas branch metrics are used to provide reliability information on the decoded sequence. …
Parameter Non-Stationarity In A Model To Estimate The Business Value Of Information Technology, Robert J. Kauffman
Parameter Non-Stationarity In A Model To Estimate The Business Value Of Information Technology, Robert J. Kauffman
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Developing robust and refined measures to quantify strategic impacts is a major challenge facing researchers who seek to improve methods for IT investment evaluation. This paper presents a means to test for parameter "non-stationarity" in a model which quantifies the strategic contribution of IT. An iterative "jackknife" procedure is used to diagnose if different local competitive and demographic conditions present in branch banking enhance or suppress leverage on deposit market share associated with membership in an ATM network. Preliminary results suggest this approach will be useful for managers who need to evaluate similar ITs which operate in different environments.
Remote Sensing And Diplomacy, Ann Florini
Remote Sensing And Diplomacy, Ann Florini
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
The advent of a variety of commercial and national remote-sensing satellites has eliminated a long-standing superpower monopoly on a key source of information about global events. As these systems proliferate, it will become increasingly difficult to maintain secrecy about certain sensitive activities. Nations other than the superpowers will be able independently to verify compliance with arms control accords, and to monitor global “hot spots.” These new capabilities both reflect and contribute to an inevitable diffusion of power among nations. Although there will be adjustment costs, particularly for the superpowers, the enhanced global transparency is likely to promote global stability and …

Flexibility: The Next Competitive Battle: The Manufacturing Futures Survey, Arnoud De Meyer, Jinichiro Nakane, Jeffrey M. Miller, Kasra Ferdows
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Over the past 4 years research teams from INSEAD (Fontainebleau), Boston University and Waseda University (Tokyo) have administered a yearly survey on the manufacturing strategy of the large manufacturers of the three industrialized regions of the world. In this paper the results for the 1986 survey are compared. One of the most striking results of that year’s survey is the emphasis some of the more advanced manufacturers put on their efforts to overcome the trade-off between flexibility and cost efficiency. In particular for the Japanese respondents these attempts become clear. Europeans and North Americans are not yet seizing the opportunity …
Measuring The Unjust Enrichment In A Restitution, Howard Hunter
Measuring The Unjust Enrichment In A Restitution, Howard Hunter
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Unjust enrichment is a theme common to most restitution cases in the United States. The theory of recovery is based on a justice principle the disgorgement of an unfairly obtained gain. The goal, in general, is to require the defendant to give up his gain rather than to compensate the plaintiff for a loss, as in a tort case, or to substitute damages for an unfulfilled expectancy, as in a contract case. This paper examines some of the issues that surround the measurement of the unjust enrichment and the defendant's liability. There are a number of straightforward rules for the …
