This paper extends our previous work on the
selective excitation of mechanical vibration modes in MEMS devices using Pulsed Digital Oscillators. It begins by presenting extensive simulation results using the set of iterative ...
The aim of this paper is to show that it is possible to excite selectively different mechanical resonant modes of a MEMS structure using Pulsed Digital Oscillators (PDOs). This can be done by simply changing the working ...

The definition of the decline of long term yields in the light of increasing short term yields as a conundrum by Chairman Greenspan in February 2005 has generated a significant amount of research. This paper presents a ...
Crystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) coatings have been widely used in photo-electrochemical solar cell applications. In this study, TiO2 and carbon-doped TiO2 coatings were deposited onto unheated titanium and silicon wafer ...
This paper characterizes long-run outcomes for broad classes of symmetric games, when players select actions on the basis of average historical performance. Received wisdom is that when agent’s interests are partially ...
One of the most important factors to be considered when developing an application for a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is its power consumption. Intelligent Power Management (IPM) for a WSN is crucial in maximising the ...

The last few years have seen a wide adoption of the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC/PHY standard for low-power communication between
wireless sensor nodes. Within this work we study some fundamental drawbacks of the 802.15.4 specifications ...
This paper studies advertising in vertically differentiated product markets with positive consumption externalities. In markets with consumption externalities, the value of the product to the consumer depends on the ...
The so-called Social Web has helped to change the very nature of the Internet by emphasising the role of our online experiences as new forms of content and service knowledge. In this paper we describe an approach to improving ...
Nowadays, control of heating, cooling and ventilation equipment operation is mainly achieved via timers with fixed setback schedules, configured using experience and standard models of space occupancy. Applying generic ...
We incorporate previously omitted controls of external conditions in transportation and commodity markets into Porter's (1983) analysis of industry demand, conduct and stability of the JEC
railroad cartel. We estimate the ...
Purpose – This paper reviews traditional corporate governance and accountability research, to suggest opportunities for future research in this field. The first part adopts an analytical frame of reference based on theory, ...
This research analyses corporate governance practices as disclosed in the annual reports of Irish companies. In particular the paper investigates:
Independence of boards;
Separation of the role of chairman and chief ...
The use of the Internet for financial reporting purposes by 109 Irish companies in 1998 is examined. The relationship between Internet disclosure and size, leverage, demand for corporate information and industry is analysed. ...
This paper investigates the correlation dynamics in the equity markets of 13 Asia-Pacific countries, Europe and the US using the asymmetric dynamic conditional correlation GARCH model (AG-DCC-GARCH) introduced by Cappiello, ...
Quantifying uncertainty in flood forecasting is a difficult task, given the multiple and strongly nonlinear
model components involved in such a system. Much effort has been and is being invested in
the quest of dealing ...
