Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, the project studies optimal assignment of individual tasks to workers. Tasks are nested in a network that captures technological linkages between them. Workers differ in their costs of effort. After tasks are allocated, workers simultaneously choose efforts which create positive externalities on the connected tasks. Under the assumption that the differences in costs of effort are small, we characterize the surplus maximizing assignment of tasks to workers. We find that under certain conditions it might be optimal to assign the most important “central” tasks to the least efficient workers. Secondary, the project introduces the equilibrium matching process and examines the relationship between its process and stable matching. Finaly, the project gets preliminary results on potential games for empirical applications.
