The Southern African Development Community (SADC) has evolved in 1992 from the former Southern African Development Coordination Conference (SADCC) existing since 1980. The SADC aims at regional integration, sustainable growth and alleviation of poverty in ...
This short note completes the work done in the paper "Evaluation of a Swiss carbon tax with the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3" and analyzes for Switzerland the benefits of a multi-gas greenhouse ga abatement strategy. ...
Voluntary approaches (VAs) are increasingly implemented in different countries as the main instrument in environmental policies. The authors focus on the economics of VAs, their advantages and disadvantages and how they compare with other climate policy in ...
Existing fuel taxes play a major role in determining the welfare effects of exempting the transportation sector from measures to control greenhouse gases. To study this phenomenon we modify the MIT Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) model to d ...
This paper presents a new approach for the design of a full reference objective quality metric for the assessment of color pictures. Our goal is to build a multi-channel metric based on the perceptual weighting of single-channel metrics. A psycho-visual ex ...
The development of methodologies to assess the effects of pesticides in a consistent way and to enable comparison with the impacts from other agricultural practices is urgently needed. This paper describes a life cycle assessment method to determine the im ...
We characterize the optimal reordering policies for the stationary periodic review AHM inventory model when there is a quick and a -generally cheaper- slow supplier, whose delivery lags differ by one period and whose fixed and unit ordering costs are arbit ...
