    Abstract : The common theme of this thesis is the analysis of asymmetric information when applied to the market for health care production. The thesis consists of six more or less independent papers and an introduction to the thesis were purpose and methodology are stated (part one). Part two is an investigation into the pricing of pharmaceuticals in Sweden. READ MORE

  2. 2. Datafication in Public Health Surveillance : Making Authoritative Accounts

    Author : Martin Stojanov; Mats Edenius; Claes Thorén; Eivor Oborn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Datafication; public health; authority; sociomateriality; care; valuation; design ethnography; influenza surveillance; Information Systems; Informationssystem;

    Abstract : The data traces we increasingly leave behind through interactions with information technology are being integrated into public health practice for continuous real-time monitoring and decision-making in a process of datafication. While previous research suggests there are challenges in producing and moving representations, datafication relies on reusing data primarily intended for a different purpose. READ MORE

  3. 3. Optimal stopping, incomplete information, and stochastic games

    Author : Yuqiong Wang; Erik Ekström; Sören Christensen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimal stopping; sequential analysis; incomplete information; asymmetric information; stochastic filtering; Dynkin games; tug-of-war games; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis contains six papers on the topics of optimal stopping and stochastic games. Paper I extends the classical Bayesian sequential testing and detection problems for a Brownian motion to higher dimensions. We demonstrate unilateral concavity of the cost function and present its structural properties through various examples. READ MORE
