This paper has been prepared for the Global Agenda Council of the World Economic Forum. It addresses the issue of the shift toward reduced entrepreneurial dynamism in Europe as well as in the United States. The paper starts from a few insights about “the d ...
Four novel tetrahydroquinoline dyes by inserting isophorone and/or thiophene moieties as π bridge between the electron donating unit of substituted tetrahydroquinoline and the electron withdrawing unit of cyano carboxylic acid have been synthesized and suc ...
In this paper, we show that many formal and informal security results on distance-bounding (DB) protocols are incorrect/incomplete. We identify that this inadequacy stems from the fact that the pseudorandom function (PRF) assumption alone, invoked in many ...
Since the early 80s, numerous developed and also developing countries on all continents have embarked on reforms of their national electricity sectors with varying degrees of ambition. The reforms were associated with hopes for accelerated innovation, enha ...
This thesis analyses three distinct aspects of the economics of water distribution in Switzerland. Climate change and mounting pressure regarding the performance of network industries command an understanding of the drivers of cost and efficiency of water ...
This paper revisits the question of the appropriate domain of a currency area using a New-Keynesian open economy model in which the world is split in two areas, each framed as a continuum of small open regions. We show that the adoption of a common currenc ...
This paper describes a new patent-based indicator of inventive activity. The indicator is based on counting all the priority patent applications filed by a country's inventors, regardless of the patent office in which the application is filed, and can ther ...
The disturbances of energy supply that may result from both external and domestic events create a significant threat for national economy due to potential impacts on the productivity, employment and overall economic growth. Building scenarios of the econom ...
In this paper, we show how interference can be exploited to perform gossip computations for average-based consensus over a larger local neighborhood, rather than only pairs of nodes. We use a new channel coding technique called computation coding to comput ...
A coumarin derivative was employed for the detection of biogenic amines in buffered aqueous solution by UV-Vis or fluorescence spectroscopy. Incorporated in a polymeric matrix, the dye can also be used for the optical detection of gaseous amines. ...
