Measuring Consumer Resistance to Innovation in Meat Packaging-Evidence from Choice Experiments
DownloadSpring 2012
In this thesis, consumers’ perceptions and willingness-to-pay for a new packaging technology for beef steaks, vacuum packaging, are measured using real choice experiments and different information scenarios. The findings suggest that information plays an important role in consumers’ attitudes...

The Dual Failure Restorability (DFR) problems involve the design of network topology to be restorable in the event of single and dual failures scenarios. We developed new integer linear programming (ILP) models to optimally design mesh topology networks with various survivability schemes; span...

Modern integrated and system-on-chip electronics require high-quality on-chip passive components. Existing inductor designs for microwave and millimetre-wave applications are typically prohibitively large and have low quality factors, requiring circuit designers to avoid integrating them or to...

This paper proposes a cooperative adaptive cruise control model, adding a communication network structure to an existing model that has been shown to capture real commercial adaptive cruise control vehicle behavior. The proposed model is interesting because it only requires minimal information...
