Based on empirical data, a two-equation game-type corruption reaction function model was developed. A data to model approach was used rather than the usual a priori approach. The general hypothesis tested was the monkey see, monkey do principle. The latest data on corruption among developing...

In this paper, a simple dynamic model of efficient firm-level managerial resource allocation to two uses, one involving productivity activities and another one involving corruption activities to get things done was developed. The model follows the optimal control theory process. Two operational...

This paper presents an intuitive model of university-industry (hereafter, UI) research linkages (or collaborations), focusing on the sharing principle under uncertainty. The paper draws from an earlier more complicated dynamic control theory model, but it differs in that it brings into the...
