This paper starts by outlining the technologies involved in RFIDs and reviews the issues raised by their general application. It then identifies their potential application areas within the library sector based on a generic ...
In machine defect detection, namely those of gears, the major problem is isolating the
defect signature from the measured signal, especially where there is significant background noise or multiple machine components. This ...
The concept of capacity credit is widely used to quantify the contribution of renewable
technologies to securing demand. This may be quantified in a number of ways; this paper
recommends the use of Effective Load ...
While there is extensive research on educational leadership and management, the selection of leaders has received comparatively little attention. This article examines how educational leadership is constructed through the ...
Nonlocal Polymerisation Driven Diffusion model describes grating formation in
photopolymer materials and gives valuable insight into the processes taking place during formation. For weak exposures, NPDD reduces to a ...
We examine the return distributions of 332 funds of hedge funds and associated indices.
Over half of the sample is significantly skewed according to the skewness statistic, and these are split 50/50 positive and negative. ...
Conventional methods of analysis of poverty assume resources are shared so that each individual in a household/family has the same standard of living. This article measures differences between spouses in a large sample in ...

Search-engines are among the most used resources on the Internet. Google, for example, now hosts over eight billion items and returns answers to queries in a fraction of a second, thus realising some of the more far-fetched ...
In any dataset with individual forecasts of economic variables, some forecasters will perform
better than others. However, it is possible that these ex post differences reflect sampling variation
and thus overstate the ...
On average, the poor European periphery converged on the rich industrial core in the four or five decades prior to the First World War. Some, like the three Scandinavian economies, used industrialization to achieve a ...

Lagrange Multiplier tests for omitted variables , heteroscedasticity, incorrect functional form and asymmetry in the ordered logit model may be readily calculated using an artificial regression. The proposed artificial ...
Murphy, Anthony(University College Dublin. School of Economics, 1994-10)
Lagrange Multiplier (LM) tests for omitted variables, heteroscedasticity, incorrect functional form, and non-normality in the ordered probit model may be readily calculated using an artificial regression. The proposed ...
Murphy, Anthony(University College Dublin. School of Economics, 1994-07)
LM tests for omitted variables, neglected heteroscedasticity and other mis-specifications in general discrete choice models may be simply and conveniently calculated using an artificial regression. This artificial regression ...
This paper begins with a commentary on the unfolding of the
Asian crisis, and includes summary information on the effect of the crisis on
the rate of economic growth and unemployment in the region. A review of
current ...
