	The Perfect-Information Economy Model (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It outlines four classes of information and four plateaus of performance that could theoretically be achieved.
		Plateau 4 is typified by a comprehensive information model of a self-directed enterprise, where enterprise values or goals are inserted into the enterprise simulation model, and the model itself makes choices as to how to behave to maximize the enterprise performance.
		Enterprise managers have a responsibility to make the right investments in the search to achieve perfect information, but they must be aware of the point at which the benefits are not adequate to justify the required investment.

		Consequently, it is generally possible to obtain additional information about the problem that could be used to improve the accuracy of the subjective estimates.
		Additional information should rationally be used to revise our prior estimates, not to supplant them (assuming, of course, the original estimates were not a haphazard guess).
		Perfect information would increase ACME's expected payoff by $1.5 million, so that is what the perfect information is worth (to ACME's managers).

	Perfect information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Perfect information is a term used in economics and game theory to describe a state of complete knowledge that is available to all market participants,or players, and that is instantaneously updated as new information arises.
		In asense it is a requirement of the assumption also made in economic theory that market participants act rationally; if you could not assume that all themarket participants had all the information available, then you would have to model and forecast how the market would be affectedby the uneven distribution and delayed diffusion of information.
		Chess and yahtzee are perfect informationgames while scrabble and poker are not.

	Perfect (1985) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		PERFECT reminds you of precisely what you wanted to forget about the mid-80s, including the movie, itself.
		But PERFECT is useful for one thing and one thing only, being an send up of East coast pretentiousness and presumptions about the "Los Angeles"/airhead image.
		Diagnosis: if PERFECT is any indicator, the "California"/LA image is the fantastic, mass-marketed product of the very people claiming to critique it from such an "objective" distance.

	Information, by Joseph E. Stiglitz: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Information economics has provided explanations for why unemployment may persist and for why fluctuations are so large.
		If information about their workers' output were costless, employers would not pay such high wages because they could costlessly monitor output and pay accordingly.
		Because information is costly, both suppliers and demanders must spend resources to acquire and disseminate information.

	Games of Perfect Information - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
		An RTS is not a game of perfect information if it has a fog of war, because this prevents the player from seeing outside the line of sight of his units.
		A sequential game is a game of perfect information if the players move one at a time and if, when it is my turn to play, I know every action that every other player has made up to now.
		The "information" in "perfect information game" is more about having seen your opponent's actions/strategy rather than having seen the state of the game.

	Random Bytes...by Ross Rader :: Perfect Information: Involving Registrants in the Expiring Names Market
		It is important to note that all of this activity exists simply to deal with imperfect information and regulatory limitations; "first-come-first-serve" registrations, equivalent access to registry resources and mandatory flat pricing of domain name registrations at the registry level.
		Better information or more efficient market alignment would inevitably work to the detriment of these three groups and to the benefit of registrants.
		The catalyst that will allow the market to move towards greater efficiency and a healthier market is to increase the flow of information to current registrants and accommodate the corresponding effect of increasing the flow of benefits to them.

		The expected value with perfect information is the expected or average return, in the long run, if we have perfect information before a decision has to be made.
		Thus, if we had perfect information, we would expect, on average, a payoff of $100,000 if the decision could be repeated many times.
		The maximum EMV is computed for $40,000, which is the expected outcome without perfect information.

	Perfect Information and the Net Bazaar
		In the first: markets are profitable because information is not perfect, thus helping one to buy low and sell high (other factors are relevant as well: skills, capital, marketing).
		At that point the buyers would simply go from one seller to the next until they found the lowest possible price because they would have perfect information and the lowest possible price would soon be battered down to an infinitesimal amount over the cost of production price and you couldn't make a profit.
		It is not only that consumers have more, quicker, and easily accessible, information, but they have now information that reflects their aspirations, their ideal standards.

		A Phase Perfect unit is able to feed power from the generated phase back into the power system as well.
		The Phase Perfect system is similar to static and rotary phase converters in that two of the phase leads to the load come directly from the power line.
		In the example of the 7.5 HP rotary converter used in a machine shop where one of the line-line voltages from the rotary converter was at 280 V, the electronics unit of a CNC would probably be damaged if it were operated at such a high voltage.

	Lemons and the Nobel Prize - Mises Institute
		Furthermore, it was a welcome break from the "perfect information" thesis that has dominated neoclassical economics since the days of Alfred Marshall.
		The theme of the "imperfect information" economists is as such: market participants often do not enjoy the "perfect information" that is necessary to make markets function in the proper fashion, as indicated by the point of equilibrium demonstrated in the famous Marshallian Cross where supply and demand are equal.
		So-called imperfect-information economic analysis was intended to bring economics out of the unrealistic "perfect competition" models in which there was no "market failure" or inability of parties to gain all of the necessary information.

	Expected Value of Perfect Information (EVPI) Concepts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Let's first take another look at what the concept of expected value of perfect information (EVPI) is. The EVPI in a given situation is the maximum amount of money that you should spend for additional information.
		Calculating the expected profit given perfect information is based on the assumption that the decision maker has a perfect predictor available.
		The expected value of perfect information (EVPI) is, in general, equal to the expected opportunity loss of selecting the optimum act in an uncertain environment.
