Incentives and Computing Systems for Team-Based Organizations: A Mathematical and Economic Analysis
对Barua等人1995年发表在《组织科学》上的论文进行了数学与经济分析，指出其定义不清、与经典生产理论不符等问题，并提出了替代方案和未来研究方向。
This paper provides a mathematical and economic analysis “Incentives and Computing Systems for Team-Based Organizations” by A. Barua, C. H. Sophie Lee, and A. B. Whinston, which was published in Organization Science in 1995. Several points were not adequately stated in the original article and one of the key definitions is not clear, nor is it in keeping with the classical theory of production. Although the Cobb-Douglas production function is often used in the article, it does not comply with the article's definitions. The two main contributions of this paper are (1) to provide a word of caution to other readers who might try to extend Barua et al. (1995) and (2) to suggest alternative formulations and directions for future research.
