Intercity travel demand : a utility-consistent simultaneous trip generation and mode choice model

An intercity travel decision includes a complex set of subdecisions, such as when to travel, where to travel, which mode to choose, and others. The main focus of this dissertation is to examine trip frequency and mode choice of intercity non-business travel. The objective of this study is to understand intercity travel behavior using disaggregate models. The proposed conceptual framework for intercity travel behavior leads to a nested logit/continuous choice model that is rigorously linked to the utility maximization theory. Compared to a traditional intercity travel demand model, the proposed model is utility consistent in that trip generation and mode choice models flow from one utility function. Thus, the resultant model embodies the interrelationship of trip generation and mode choice. Applying the model to the NorthEast Corridor, the calibrated results show that trip generation of non-business travelers is interdependent with mode choice. The factors influencing mode choice may exert an impact on trip generation directly or indirectly

Private Dispute Resolution in the Card Context: Structure, Reputation, and Incentives

Explosive growth in credit, debit, and other card payment systems in recent years has produced a parallel growth in private dispute resolution systems based on the web of contracts entered into by merchants, merchant acquirers, consumers, card issuers, card associations, and transaction processors. These contracts have produced legal systems based on contract and the enforcement of which rests primarily on reputational constraints. To cost-effectively resolve disputes, these private legal systems have evolved innovative procedures using resources at the lowest-possible level, including incentive-payments for producing information and rigid deadlines for parties\u27 actions. This paper describes and analyzes these legal systems and their procedures as a potential model for resolving other categories of disputes
