Efficiency gains from mergers
- European Economy, No
, 2001
"... The purpose of this report is to contribute to the analysis of two questions. Should a merger control system take into account efficiency gains from horizontal mergers, and balance these gains against the anti-competitive effects of mergers? If so, how should a system be designed to account for effi ..."

EFFICIENCY GAINS AND MERGERS
, 2008
"... In the theoretical literature, strong arguments have been provided in support of the ef-ficiency defense in antitrust merger policy. One of the most often cited results is due to Williamson (1968) that shows how relatively small reduction in cost could offset the deadweight loss of a large price inc ..."

increase. Furthermore, Salant et al. (1983) demonstrate that (not for monopoly) mergers are unprofitable absent efficiency gains. The general re-sult, drawn in a Cournot framework by Farrell and Shapiro (1990), is that (not too large) mergers that are profitable are always welfare improving. In the present

The Market for Corporate Assets: Who Engages in Mergers and Asset Sales and Are There Efficiency Gains?
- JOURNAL OF FINANCE
"... We analyze the market for corporate assets. There is an active market for corporate assets, with close to seven percent of plants changing ownership annually through mergers, acquisitions, and asset sales in peak expansion years. The probability of asset sales and whole-firm transactions is related ..."

to firm organization and ex ante efficiency of buyers and sellers. The timing of sales and the pattern of efficiency gains suggests that the transactions that occur, especially through asset sales of plants and divisions, tend to improve the allocation of resources and are consistent with a simple
Overlooks Sectoral Efficiency Gains*
"... One-sector aggregate growth accounting does not distinguish capital investments made in response to an economy's newfound ability to produce new goods efficiently from capital deepening in existing industries. This can lead to biased interpretations like Krugman's (1994) paradox that techn ..."

Efficient similarity search in sequence databases
, 1994
"... We propose an indexing method for time sequences for processing similarity queries. We use the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) to map time sequences to the frequency domain, the crucial observation being that, for most sequences of practical interest, only the first few frequencies are strong. Anot ..."

the sequences and e ciently answer similarity queries. We provide experimental results which show that our method is superior to search based on sequential scanning. Our experiments show that a few coefficients (1-3) are adequate to provide good performance. The performance gain of our method increases
Chaff: Engineering an Efficient SAT Solver
, 2001
"... Boolean Satisfiability is probably the most studied of combinatorial optimization/search problems. Significant effort has been devoted to trying to provide practical solutions to this problem for problem instances encountered in a range of applications in Electronic Design Automation (EDA), as well ..."

. In this paper we describe the development of a new complete solver, Chaff, which achieves significant performance gains through careful engineering of all aspects of the search – especially a particularly efficient implementation of Boolean constraint propagation (BCP) and a novel low overhead decision strategy
