Why We Don't Know How to Simulate the Internet
, 1997
"... Simulating how the global Internet data network behaves is an immensely challenging undertaking because of the network's great heterogeneity and rapid change. The heterogeneity ranges from the individual links that carry the network's traffic, to the protocols that interoperate over the li ..."

"... addresses are <ugneezy@ucsd.edu>, <sm3087@columbia.edu>, and <pedro.rey@uab.cat>. 2 Economists often emphasize that "incentives matter." The basic "law of behavior" is that higher incentives will lead to more effort and higher performance: principals who are em ..."

, but the message seems to be clear; as Gneezy and Rustichini's (2000a) title suggests, "Pay enoughor don't pay at all." In one of their experiments, Gneezy and Rustichini (2000a) present field evidence that high school students who collected donations for a charity in a door-to-door fund
Materials for an exploratory theory of the network society.
- The British Journal of Sociology
, 2000
"... ABSTRACT This article aims at proposing some elements for a grounded theor y of the network society. The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation. It permeates most societies in the world, in v ..."

Temporal locality in today’s content caching: Why it matters and how to model it
- ACM Computer Communication Review
, 2013
"... The dimensioning of caching systems represents a difficult task in the design of infrastructures for content distribution in the current Internet. This paper addresses the problem of defining a realistic arrival process for the content requests generated by users, due its critical importance for bot ..."

First, with the aid of YouTube traces collected inside operational residential networks, we identify the characteristics of real traffic that need to be considered or can be safely neglected in order to accurately predict

Experiences with the ns-2 Network Simulator - Explicitly Setting Seeds Considered Harmful
- in Proceedings of the 6th Wireless Telecommunications Symposium (WTS
, 2007
"... The ns-2 network simulator is one of the most widely used packet network simulators. In version 2.1b9 its old random number generator was replaced by an implementation of MRG32k3a to fix sensitivity to seeds. Due to bad documentation and re-use of old scripts many people still use the old API functi ..."

This might affect the majority of ns-2 simulation results currently published. We show why this is the case, illustrate possible effects, and how to avoid

Culture on the Rise: How and Why Cultural Membership Promotes Democratic Politics
"... Abstract Selectively using Tocqueville, many social scientists suggest that civic participation increases democracy. We go beyond this neo-Tocquevillian model in three ways. First, to capture broader political and economic transformations, we consider different types of participation; results chang ..."

We build on recent work on class politics such as Evans (1999), Clark and Lipset If, in materialist class politics contexts, cultural membership seems
