It explores that the objectives behind the introduction of Islamic finance and banking system were the elimination of capitalist banking interest, exploitation of poor segment of the society and the establishment of an economic system which may lead to sustain a balance economic order and social justice. In this context, it intends to analyze the mode of leasing provided by Islamic Banking system in the light of the objectives of Shari'ah and discloses that although Islamic Banking system is based on the principle of mudarbah, musharkah and Ijarah and deals with the customers in that context, yet apparently, the effects of these transactions are not much different from capitalist modes due to same consequences and effects of these transactions. It thus, provides a comparative analysis of the issue, i.e., mode of leasing at both Islamic and capitalist Banks. It argues that a common man can not avail Islamic financing/leasing if he lacks financial resources. If a poor person tries to purchase something by way of ijarah through Islamic Banking finance, he does not find any difference in the payment of the total cost between capitalist mode of leasing and Islamic mode of ijarah. Hence, this article concludes that although Islamic financing achieved a remarkable development among the Muslims, yet there is a need to revise the policy and system of Islamic financing in the light of the objectives of Shari'ah. It also concludes that the mode of leasing provided at Islamic Banks does not accomplish the objectives of its establishment which is public interest. At present, this system is unable to assist the poor segment of the society or to provide ease to them.展开更多

However, Common model does not consider the obligation of Primary System (PS) and is unfair to Secondary System (SS), while the cooperation based on Property-rights model has problems on its feasibility. This paper proposes a novel system model, in which a Cost-Prediction scheme for Spectrum Leasing (CPSL scheme) is designed to forecast the cost that PS would pay for leasing spectrum. Cost Function is introduced as a criterion to evaluate the potential cost of spectrum leasing for PS. The simulation results show that compared with Common model based scheme, CPSL scheme substantially improves the QoS of the delay-sensitive traffic in SS at the cost of a small degradation of PS performance.展开更多

In this paper, we propose a pricing-based spectrum leasing framework between one PU and multiple SUs. In this scenario, the PU attempts to maximize its utility by setting the price of spectrum. Then, the selected SUs have the right to decide their power levels to help PU s transmission, aiming to obtain corresponding access time. The spectrum leasing problem can be cast into a stackelberg game, where the PU plays the seller-level game and the selected SUs play the buyer-level game. Through analysis based on the backward induction, we prove that there exists a unique equilibrium in the stackelberg game with certain constraints. Numerical results show that the proposed pricing-based spectrum leasing framework is effective, and the performance of both PU and SUs is improved, compared to the traditional mechanism without cooperation.展开更多

Migrating the system to a geo-distributed cloud and leasing servers is an ideal alternative for supporting large-scale live streaming applications with dynamic contents and demands. The new challenge of multimedia live streaming applications in a geo-distributed cloud is how to efficiently arrange and migrate services among different cloud sites to guarantee the distribute users’ experience at modest costs. This paper first investigates cloud leasing policies for live streaming applications and finds that there is no detailed algorithm to help live streaming applications arrange and migrate services among different cloud sites. Then, we present a quality of service(Qo S) guarantee cost-effective cloud leasing policy for live streaming applications. Meanwhile, we design a genetic algorithm(GA) to deal with the leasing policy among cloud sites of diverse lease prices. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed model and the efficiency of the involved GA.展开更多

文摘The main objective of this study is to determine a lease agreement to finance an investment project and a solution for managing credit risk.This study investigates three types of contingent leases to reduce the costs associated with bankruptcy and compensate for the lessor’s position.A leasing defaultable contract allows the lessor to obtain the rent that will be recovered if the lessee defaults.A leasing convertible contract can be automatically converted into shares when certain default conditions related to the cash flows generated by the firm are met.These conditions are triggered by the ratio of the firm’s value and leasing payments.A Defaultable-Convertible-Leasing contract with a payback option grants the lessor the right but not the obligation to convert the remaining lease payments into stocks or to break up the contract and pick up the rented equipment when the firm reaches the default threshold.These contracts are motivated by contributing to the range of risk-management strategies by adding more flexibility to standard leasing contracts and contingent rents.Closed-form securities pricing solutions are set forward in a dynamic model for firms with existing assets and a growth option financed by shares and a contingent lease.Risk-neutral pricing theory and the backward induction method are used to determine the pricing of corporate securities.Numerical analysis shows that leasing convertible contracts and defaultable-convertible contracts with payback options impact the service value of the leased asset,maturity,and inefficiencies resulting from insolvency and asset substitution.An optimal conversion rate reduces inefficiencies,thus making the leasing convertible contract and defaultable-convertible-leasing contract with payback option a reliable solution to ensure business continuity and loss coverage of the leasers upon default.
文摘The thesis combs the existing legal provisions about rural housing land from the perspectives of use restriction,means restriction,subject restriction and mortgage prohibition,and finds out their defects,namely,weakening real right,confused knowledge about the integration of house property and land property,the loophole in Land Administration Law,the bans on the rural residents' purchase of housing land and so on.Then the thesis expounds the harms of restricting the circulation of housing land,for example,it will result in underground transaction of housing lands;lead to untenanted lands and waste of resources;bring about financing difficulty for peasants;do harm to the interest of land owners(rural collective economic organizations) and so on.The thesis further proposes to establish the legal lease model to solve the problems in the circulation of housing lands,specifically explains the definition of the legal lease model of housing lands,illustrates its detailed information from the aspects of object,subject and content and elaborates a series of problems involving,how to distribute the rent of housing lands,as well as how to perfect relevant procedures and formalities in the credit circulation of housing lands so as to realize the legitimate and effective circulation of rural housing lands and protect the peasants' interests.
