Coase-UBI experiment: give a community of adults a high UBI, require that they can only buy from outside world but not sell to it (Ie produce free stuff or nothing) and track *size* of collaborations they form among themselves. They can pool funds but can’t pay each other

This would be an empirical estimate of “state-of-nature” org size distribution that factors out currency mediated transactions and contracts. I predict median person would join a band of size ~12-30, whatever the activity.

Lateral group transfer rate (with associated assets) seems like a relevant parameter to control for.

Ah yes, curiously enough that was my PhD topic (a set of teams being mixed via lateral transfers towards ideal configuration as system evolves)

Methods are specific to some aerospace multiagent domains but we did look into generalizing to airline crew scheduling.

I’m tucking it away for later reading (once I get a hold of the full manuscript). Related: I’ve seen airline crew scheduling multiple times for organizational studies. Is it the zebrafish of orgs? If so, why?

I’ll send the pdf link later. Airline crew scheduling is just a very clean-edged OR problem where schedule constraints dominate the problem enough that it’s a good testbed.
