Abstract: In this paper a game theoretic model is used to extend information value theory, as developed in decision analysis, to competitive situations. One of the main differences between competitive and noncompetitive situations is that part of the environment namely the competitors may be modified as a result of experimentation in another part of the environment nature. Hence, states of the world and actions may no more be independent. Nevertheless, we shall show how the classical concept may be generalized to cover competitive situations.

TL;DR: A lockable cover for push button telephones was proposed in this paper to prevent the unauthorized making of outgoing telephone calls consisting of a base member attachable to the underside of the telephone and a cover member having a raised portion to cover the push buttons.
Abstract: A lockable cover for push button telephones to prevent the unauthorized making of outgoing telephone calls consisting of a base member attachable to the underside of the telephone and a cover member having a raised portion to cover the push buttons of the telephone. The base member and cover members are pivotally secured together at the front edges thereof with tabs on the rear edges that have aligned openings for receiving a lock. When the lockable cover is in place on the telephone, the push buttons cannot be actuated to make unauthorized outgoing phone calls.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the published literature on the subject and set the stage for a detailed discussion of the proposed two-phase approach, where the initial survey of productspecific measures on both psychographies and communications behavior in addition to the standard attitudinal and usage data are included.
Abstract: M ARKET segmentation helps the firm gear a specific product to the likes or requirements of a particular target group. For many companies, it is far better to capture bigger pieces of fewer markets than to scramble about for a smaller share of every market in sight. The segmentation concept would be more meaningful to management if research were to cover the entire scope of the problem. This means the inclusion in the initial survey of productspecific measures on both psychographies and communications behavior in addition to the standard attitudinal and usage data. After the segments have been selected, a second-phase research should be conducted to estimate the response elasticities of different submarkets to the firm's communication mix. In this way, management will be in a firm position to evaluate the profitability of the segmentation strategy. Most of the research undertaken at present does not adopt this two-fold approach. Even the initial survey is often unsatisfactory. In some cases, the criteria employed for grouping consumers are so general that they cannot discriminate among users of various brands within a product category. In other cases, these bases are so specific that they ignore the different nuances of consumer behavior and thus are not very helpful for developing marketing strategies. A brief review of the published literature on the subject brings these problems out clearly and sets the stage for a detailed discussion of the proposed two-phase approach. A case history from the food industry illustrates the usefulness of this procedure.

TL;DR: In this article, an electric switch mounted within an enclosure having a hinged cover is manually operated from outside the enclosure by a handle mechanism secured to the enclosure, with the cover provided with a single aperture near the edge of the cover, remote from the cover hinges, with this aperture providing clearance for the operating handle of the mechanism when the cover is closed and also providing a catch which holds the cover closed.
Abstract: An electric switch mounted within an enclosure having a hinged cover is manually operated from outside the enclosure by a handle mechanism secured to the enclosure. The cover is provided with a single aperture near the edge thereof remote from the cover hinges, with this aperture providing clearance for the operating handle of the mechanism when the cover is closed and also providing clearance for a catch which holds the cover closed. The mechanism also includes a defeatable cover interlock to prevent opening of the cover when the switch is closed, and a defeatable switch interlock to prevent closing of the switch when the cover is open.

TL;DR: In this article, a cover is provided that is pivotable on a hinge to cover the switches and a remote control blocking switch is mounted beneath and normally engaged by the cover so that when the cover is opened, remote operation of the switch operating mechanism is blocked by disengagement of the cover from the cover.
Abstract: Motorized high voltage switch operating mechanisms may have local control switches located on the front thereof which may be operated to control the operation of the switch operating mechanism. It is desirable to limit access to the local control switches by a cover that may be locked to prevent unauthorized tampering or actuation. A cover is provided that is pivotable on a hinge to cover the switches. The cover is arranged so that it may be opened in two ways. First, when a lock is removed, the cover may be first moved upwardly to disengage a flange mounted on a door of the switch operating mechanism so that the cover can be pivoted to an open position. Second, even when the lock is in place, the door can be opened so that the flange disengages the cover so that the cover can be pivoted to an open position. A remote control blocking switch may be mounted beneath and normally engaged by the cover so that when the cover is opened, remote operation of the switch operating mechanism is blocked by disengagement of the switch from the cover.
