We propose a model of a firm's reversible investment decision with macroeconomic conditions based on optimal switching of a diffusion regime. The switching costs and the cash flow generated from the firm depend on a business cycle alternating via a Markov ...
By offering new empirical evidence on Indian skilled migration, this volume attempts to fill two gaps in the literature. Firstly, it contributes to a better understanding of the activities of Indian skilled professionals and students in continental Europe. ...
The internal rate of return (IRR) is generally considered inferior to the net present value (NPV) as a tool for evaluating and ranking projects, despite its inherently useful comparability to the cost of capital and the return of other investment opportuni ...
The surge of modern techniques to fabricate structured materials paired with our ever deeper understanding of complex forms of matter present us with the opportunity to make and study dramatically new forms of designed materials and structures.This movemen ...
Cameroon’s electricity sector is undergoing significant changes. Before 1974, electricity was supplied by many different companies until they were nationalized and merged into a single, vertically integrated company that had responsibility for production, ...
We present a new code assistance tool for integrated development environments. Our system accepts free-form queries allowing a mixture of English and Java as an input, and produces Java code fragments that take the query into account and respect syntax, ty ...
Write-once memory (WOM) is a storage medium with memory elements, called cells, which can take on q levels. Each cell is initially in level 0 and can only increase its level. A t-write WOM code is a coding scheme, which allows one to store t messages to th ...

The identification of biological signatures of diseases will enable the development of new biologically grounded classifications of brain diseases, leading to a new systematic understanding of their causes, and new diagnostic tools. In this paper we presen ...
This deliverable specifies the utility metrics that are considered and used in the scope of the OpenIoT project. These utility metrics are recorded as part of the implementation of the Utility Manager component of the OpenIoT platform, while they have also ...
