This paper focuses on the significance of the cross-border dimension in promoting
peace and reconciliation. Its central argument is that cross-border co-operation can help undermine the territorial “caging” which has been ...
Phosphorus transported from agriculture land has been identified as a major source of water pollution in a large number of Irish catchments. Models of this process are required in order to design and assess management ...
This paper is based on research undertaken in Ireland that sought to understand how parents communicate with their children about sexuality. Forty-three parents were interviewed and data were analysed using analytical ...

An increasing number of international agreements require “nondiscrimination”
from their participants, i.e. the government of one country cannot treat
foreign firms differently from domestic firms. This is at odds with a ...
A cognitively plausible measure of semantic similarity between geographic concepts is valuable across several areas, including geographic information retrieval, data mining, and ontology alignment. Semantic similarity ...
We have recently developed a novel and efficient method for synthesising Erlenmeyer azlactones under mild and rapid conditions. The reaction is performed by reacting 2-phenyl-5-oxazolone with an aldehyde in dichloromethane ...

A convenient artifical regression based LM test of non-normality in the probit model is derived using a Gram Charlier type A alternative. The test is simply derived and may be extended to the bivariate probit case. The ...

A simple and convenient artificial regression based LM tests of asymmetry in the logit model is derived. The test does not use the outer product gradient (OPG) form and in thus likely to have fairly good small sample properties.
Murphy, Anthony(University College Dublin. School of Economics, 1994-10)
A simple artificial regression based test of the fit of the binary choice models is derived. the test statistic is likely to have reasonable small sample properties since it is not based on the outer product gradient form ...
Gestural interfaces are now a familiar mode of user interaction and gestural input is an important part of the way that users can interact with such interfaces. However, entering gestures accurately and efficiently can be ...

A simple artificial regression based on Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test for zero correlation in the censored bivariate probit model is derived. The outer product gradient form of the LM test is not used so the proposed test ...

This paper outlines a simple routine to calculate the marginal effects of logit and probit regressions using the popular statistical software package R. I compare results obtained using this procedure with those produced ...

A numerical method is developed that can price options, including exotic options that can be priced recursively such as Bermudan options, when the underlying process is an exponential Lévy process with closed form conditional ...
In a small open economy with fixed exchange rates, tandard theory suggests that domestic inflation and interest rates should equal those abroad. In a credible target zone, the same theories suggest that inflation and ...
Traffic load is identified as one of the greatest sources of uncertainty in the assessment of bridges. In recent years, simulation techniques, using measured traffic data, have been used to predict the characteristic traffic ...
Many next generation lithography schemes for the semiconductor industry are based on a 13.5-nm tin plasma light source, where hundreds of thousands of 4d-4f, 4p-4d, and 4d-5p transitions from Sn5+–Sn13+ ions overlap to ...
This paper presents the formulation of a simple method for the prediction of the additional stresses induced in frame type integral bridges due to thermal expansion of the deck. These stresses are controlled to a large ...
Capacity credits are widely used to quantify the
ability of different generating technologies to support demand.
Most practical capacity credit calculations are based on detailed
risk modelling, however a wide range of ...
Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) are primarily regarded as data gathering entities that route data to a central server for subsequent processing. However, as WSN technologies mature and their prevalence increases, it is ...
