Known AHF constructions are based on error-correcting codes, which yield asymptotically efficient constructions. However, previous works do not clarify how the code should be instantiated concretely in the real world. The rate and the minimal distance of the selected code have significant impact on the efficiency of the resulting cryptosystem, therefore it is unclear if and how the aforementioned constructions can be used in practice.\r\n\r\nFirst, we explain inherent limitations of code-based AHFs. Concretely, we assume that even if we were given codes that achieve the well-known Gilbert-Varshamov or McEliece-Rodemich-Rumsey-Welch bounds, existing AHF-based constructions of verifiable random functions (VRFs) can only be instantiated quite inefficiently. Then we introduce and construct computational AHFs (cAHFs). While classical AHFs are information-theoretic, and therefore work even in presence of computationally unbounded adversaries, cAHFs provide only security against computationally bounded adversaries. However, we show that cAHFs can be instantiated significantly more efficiently. Finally, we use our cAHF to construct the currently most efficient verifiable random function with full adaptive security in the standard model."}],"date_created":"2021-03-08T16:50:31Z","status":"public","has_accepted_license":"1","file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2021-03-08T17:02:37Z","relation":"main_file","file_size":706743,"creator":"davnie","file_id":"21399","access_level":"closed","date_created":"2021-03-08T17:02:37Z","file_name":"Jager und Niehues - 2020 - On the Real-World Instantiability of Admissible Ha.pdf"}],"file_date_updated":"2021-03-08T17:02:37Z","keyword":["Admissible hash functions","Verifiable random functions","Error-correcting codes","Provable security"],"publication":"Lecture Notes in Computer Science","quality_controlled":"1","author":[{"last_name":"Jager","full_name":"Jager, Tibor","first_name":"Tibor"},{"first_name":"David","full_name":"Niehues, David","last_name":"Niehues","id":"36113"}]},{"_id":"21403","intvolume":" 18","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:54:59Z","issue":"3","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://research.owlit.de/document/f8b7cc3d-e39d-32e9-887f-0e79b55578cd"}],"page":"98-104","type":"journal_article","year":"2020","citation":{"short":"S.

Most studies assume that agents have an accurate perception regarding their tax burden. However, there is a growing body of literature analyzing whether taxes are indeed perceived correctly. We review 127 studies on the measurement of tax misperception and its behavioral implications. The review reveals that many taxpayers have substantial tax misperceptions that lead to biased decision making. We develop a Behavioral Taxpayer Response Model on the impact of provided tax information on tax perception. Besides individual traits, characteristics of the tax information and the decision environment determine the extent of tax misperception. We discuss opportunities for future research and methodological limitations. While there is much evidence on tax misperception at the individual level, we hardly find any research at the firm level. Little is known about the real effects of managers’ tax misperception and on how tax information is strategically managed to impact stakeholders. This research gap is surprising as a large part of the accounting literature analyzes decision making and disclosure of firms. We recommend a mixed-method approach combining experiments, surveys, and archival data analyses to improve the knowledge on tax misperception and its consequences.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"21222","title":"Tax Misperception and Its Effects on Decision Making - a Literature Review"},{"date_created":"2021-03-09T08:17:04Z","status":"public","department":[{"_id":"187"}],"author":[{"id":"72748","last_name":"Bornemann","full_name":"Bornemann, Tobias","first_name":"Tobias"},{"first_name":"Adrian","full_name":"Schipp, Adrian","last_name":"Schipp","id":"44288"},{"last_name":"Sureth-Sloane","id":"530","first_name":"Caren","full_name":"Sureth-Sloane, Caren"}],"title":" 2018/2019 Umfrage zur Steuerkomplexität in deutschen Finanzverwaltungen","user_id":"68751","year":"2020","citation":{"short":"T.

In addition to introducing individual variables like risk aversion or income, we allow agents to observe the behaviour of their neighbours. Depending on the behaviour of their peer group’s members, the agents’ utilities may increase or decrease, respectively. Simulation results show that taxpayers favour illegal evasion over legal optimisation in most cases. We find that interactions between taxpayers and their social networks have a deep impact on aggregate behaviour. Parameter changes such as increasing audit rates affect the results, often being intensified by social interactions. The effect of such changes varies depending on whether or not a fraction of agents is considered inherently honest.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Tax Avoidance and Social Control","user_id":"68607"},{"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"European regulation mandates public country-by-country reporting for banks and is expected to increase reputational costs in case of tax haven activities.

Applying a game-theory disclosure model for voluntary disclosure strategies of firms to a tax setting, we argue that firms face a trade-off in their ETR disclosure decisions. On the one hand, firms have an incentive to enhance their ETR disclosure when the ratio offers shareholders “favourable conditions”, for example in terms of higher expected after-tax cash-flows. On the other hand, the disclosure of a favourable low ETR could attract the attention of tax auditors and the public and ultimately result in disclosure costs. We empirically test disclosure behaviour by examining the relation between disclosure visibility and different ETR conditions that reflect different stakeholder specific costs and benefits. While we find that unfavourable ETR conditions are not highlighted, we observe higher disclosure visibility for favourable ETRs (smooth, close to the industry average, decreasing). Additional analyses reveal that this high visibility is characteristic of firm-years with only moderately decreasing ETRs at usual ETR levels, while extreme ETRs are not highlighted. Interestingly and in contrast to our main results, a subsample of family firms do not seem to highlight favourable ETRs.","lang":"eng"}],"volume":"No. 37","date_created":"2021-03-09T08:39:42Z","status":"public","department":[{"_id":"187"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Flagmeier","first_name":"Vanessa","full_name":"Flagmeier, Vanessa"},{"first_name":"Jens","full_name":"Müller, Jens","last_name":"Müller","id":"1245"},{"first_name":"Caren","full_name":"Sureth-Sloane, Caren","last_name":"Sureth-Sloane","id":"530"}],"oa":"1","_id":"21411","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:54:59Z","type":"working_paper","citation":{"short":"V.

The index, called the Tax Complexity Index (TCI), is composed of a tax code subindex covering tax regulations and a tax framework subindex covering tax processes and features. For a sample of 100 countries, we find that tax complexity varies considerably across countries, and tax code and framework complexity also vary within countries. Among others, tax complexity is strongly driven by the complexity of transfer pricing regulations in the tax code and tax audits in the tax framework. When analyzing the associations with other country characteristics, we identify different patterns. For example, with regard to GDP, we find a positive association with tax code complexity and a negative association with tax framework complexity, suggesting that highly economically developed countries tend to have more complex tax codes and less complex frameworks. Overall, our tax complexity measures can serve as valuable proxies in future research and supportive tools for a variety of firm decisions and national and international tax policy discussions."}],"title":"Measuring Tax Complexity Across Countries: A Survey Study on MNCs","user_id":"68607","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3469663","open_access":"1"}],"series_title":"TRR 266 Accounting for Transparency Working Paper Series","type":"working_paper","year":"2020","citation":{"short":"T.

For a sample of 15,607 new foreign subsidiaries, we find no association between total tax complexity, as proxied by the TCI, and the location probability. When we decompose the TCI into tax code complexity and tax framework complexity, we find opposing associations. Tax code complexity is positively related to the location probability, while tax framework complexity is negatively related to it. These associations are, for example, driven by the complexity of transfer pricing and loss offset regulations in the tax code and the dimensions guidance, audits, as well as filing and payments, in the tax framework. In additional analyses, we find that the associations are sensitive to certain characteristics, such as country-specific and firm-specific characteristics. For example, the positive tax code association diminishes when tax rates are high. Overall, we are the first to provide empirical evidence on potential cost-benefit tradeoffs of tax complexity for FDI and thereby enhance prior literature, which has primarily focused on the costs of tax complexity."}],"title":"The Relation between Tax Complexity and Foreign Direct Investments: Evidence Across Countries","user_id":"68607"},{"language":[{"iso":"ger"}],"year":"2020","citation":{"chicago":"Sureth-Sloane, Caren. “Steuerkomplexität als Standortfaktor.

Because of a limited portable energy budget by e.g. batteries, and more demanding algorithms, an efficient computation is of interest. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) for example can provide fast and efficient processing and the Robot Operating System (ROS) is a popular\r\nmiddleware used for robotic applications. The novel ReconROS combines version 2 of the Robot Operating System with ReconOS, a framework for integrating reconfigurable hardware. It provides a unified interface between software and hardware. ReconROS is evaluated in this thesis by implementing a Sobel filter as the video processing application, running on a Zynq-7000 series System on Chip. Timing measurements were taken of execution and transfer times and were compared to theoretical values. Designing the hardware implementation is done by C code using High Level Synthesis and with the interface and functionality provided by ReconROS. An important aspect is the publish/subscribe mechanism of ROS. The Operating System interface functions for publishing and subscribing are reasonably fast at below 10 ms for a 1 MB color VGA image. The main memory interface performs well at higher data sizes, crossing 100 MB/s at 20 kB and increasing to a maximum of around 150 MB/s. Furthermore, the hardware implementation introduces consistency to the execution times and performs twice as fast as the software implementation."}],"supervisor":[{"first_name":"Christian","full_name":"Lienen, Christian","last_name":"Lienen","id":"60323"},{"first_name":"Marco","full_name":"Platzner, Marco","last_name":"Platzner","id":"398"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"type":"bachelorsthesis","citation":{"short":"L.-S.
