Player 1, the “government,” wishes to influence the choice of player 2. Player 2 chooses an action a2 ϵ A2 = {0, 1} and receives a transfer t ϵ T = {0, 1} from the government, which observes a2. Player 2's objective is to maximize the expected value of his transfer, minus the cost of his action, which is 0 for a2 = 0 and  for a2 = 1. Player 1's objective is to minimize the sum 2(a2 — 1)2 + t. Before player 2 chooses his action, the government can announce a transfer rule t(a2).

(a) Draw the extensive form for the case where the government's an-nouncement is not binding and has no effect on payoffs.

(b) Draw the extensive form for the case where the government is con-strained to implement the transfer rule it announced.

(c) Give the strategic forms for both games.

(d) Characterize the subgame-perfect equilibria of the two games.

CIS Assignment 1: Models for Competitive Dynamics

/in /by

Competition has, since the 90s, led to wider gaps between industry leaders and laggards. There are more “winner-take-all” environments and greater churns among industry sector rivals. We have witnessed sharp increases in quality and quantity of IT (Information Technology) investments. We’ve seen striking competitive dynamics, particularly in sectors that spend the most on IT. Some of the competitive dynamics models include the Destroy Your Business (DYB) strategy, the Grow Your Business (GYB) strategy, the Information Systems (IS) and strategic advantage, and the social business strategy.

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:

  1. Compare and contrast the DYB and GYB strategies in terms of the ability to sustain a business in the marketplace over the long term, to be competitive against rivals, and profitability.
  2. Examine the “cannibalization” strategy and determine if it is or is not a better strategy compared to the DYB strategy for growth, competitiveness, and market leadership. Provide two (2) business examples.   
  3. Determine whether or not changes in business strategy should entail reassessment of IS. Provide three (3) reasons to support your position.
  4. Examine how firms can use social IT in alignment with organizational strategy and IS strategy. Consider collaborative capabilities, what, how, and who should use social IT for a social business strategy.
  5. Use at three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the integration of enterprise systems with inter-organizational partners.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in enterprise architecture.
  • Write clearly and concisely about enterprise architecture topics using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.

A3. GEPPS Research Project: Each individual student will prepare an individual research paper that compares and contrasts the local and Chinese economies in terms of economic, global, ethical, political, physical, and societal indicators. Does the size and growth of the economies of the two nations have any relationship to capitalism and democracy? How do these nations define capitalism in relation to national policies? Is there a relationship between economic growth and personal freedom? For the purpose of assurance of learning the GEPPS Research Project will receive 5 scores based on: a. The ability of the student to conceptualize and describe the two national approaches to capitalism (MBA-3M); b. The appropriateness of choice for societal indicators, and correct metrics used to measure the local and Chinese economies (MBA-2M); c. The analysis of socio-economic issues* (MBA-2G); d. The comparison of political systems in the two nations and the impact on economic growth, supported by longitudinal data (MBA-POLITICAL SCIENCE); and e. The ability of the student to describe the relationship between economic growth and personal freedom in the two nations (MBA-3M). *This modification in score description is done to support student attainment of MBA-2G.
