fought back by a number of reactive measures (new protector lists, actively contacting bots with new RList updates, DDoS-ing sybil C&C servers, etc.). This falls within another very interesting and novel area of research, i.e. the application of Game Theory to computer security. 4. CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK As a first conclusion based on our results, we think it is important to note that, with respect to certain performance measures, directly targeting a lot of repeaters is not more efficient than

Many paper currencies were initially ‘‘promises to pay’’ against gold held in reserve. In theory dollars issued by the US Federal Reserve could be exchanged for their gold and is set entirely by the US Treasury, without reference to its gold reserves. Such fiat currencies rely on people’s confidence in a country’s economic stability, which is

Pour lui, ce type d’innovation de rupture se définit comme “ a fundamental reconceptualization of what the business is all about that, in turn, leads to a dramatically different way of playing the game in an existing business” (Markides (1998) p.32). Dans un article fondateur (Markides, 1997), il reprend la proposition d’Abell (1980), et explique que l’innovation stratégique est mise à jour lorsque l’entreprise remet en cause les trois interrogations

stumble upon a process that is truly better. By watching the edges of the marketplace, we gain great insight into the direction that the larger market will take in the future. Lead users in software development came from several widely-divergent areas. • Game industry. Here, small crossfunctional teams built products focused entirely on serving emotional needs. Due to intense competition and vicious delivery cycles, many teams were forced to innovate far outside the traditional software development methodologies

narrator and Mary, and the history of a beer bottle. Waterland, which is cast in the form of a fictional autobiography, probes the role of narrative and in so doing raises questions about the means and methods of autobiography. Like much recent theory and criticism, the novel looks skeptically at two aspects of narrative. First, it expresses suspicion of the way human beings gravitate towards folktales, myths, and other well-shaped narratives that falsify experience and keep us from encountering

sensible are to combine both? The investigation field of my study is mainly going to concern European professional clubs of football. I shall consider five countries, those who have the best championships due to the level of practised game and the numerous trophies gained by the teams participating to it: Germany called Bundesliga, England called Premier league, Spain called Liga, France and its Ligue 1-orange and Italy with The Calcio. My analysis can also lean on foreign clubs to these

concerns of a global community of women without becoming fractious is the crucial question facing feminism within this neocolonial, postmodern era. For as critics such as Susan Bodo warn, a real danger of too much “gender trouble” within feminist theory is the creation of a discourse so nuanced and fragmentary it renders feminism meaningless as a political force. According to Cliff and other post-colonial women writers, however, the acknowledgment of multiple and interconnected forms of oppression

present hereafter our research hypotheses and the experimental design for testing them. 2.2. Hypotheses Consumers' valuation of a product can be assessed by the aggregation of the marginal values of its characteristics. We follow the consumption theory developed by Lancaster (1966) who assumes that consumers' utilities are a function of the characteristics of the goods. These characteristics define specific features of the products or their process. In our case, the most relevant attributes of
