FDI And The Composition Of Tasks: Evidence From Linked Employer-Employee Data: Theories of offshoring stress that it generates international trade in tasks and as such affects the composition of tasks performed at home. Detailed information is used about the employees at German multinationals to analyze how the firms' foreign activities affect the demand for different types of tasks. The effect on...; Tags: worker, foreign direct investment, theory; White papers 2007-03-09
Electoral Manipulation Via Expenditure Composition: Theory and Evidence: This article presents a model of the Political Budget Cycle in which voters and politicians have preferences for different types of government spending. Incumbents try to influence voters by changing the composition of government spending, rather than overall spending or revenues. Rational voters may support an incumbent who targets them...; Tags: Vertical industries, National Bureau of Economic Research, government, theory; White papers 2005-01-01
Central Bank Governance: A Survey of Boards and Management: This paper identifies issues to consider when designing the structure, size, and composition of the governing boards and management of a central bank. While central bank autonomy and accountability are generally accepted as good practice, there is less consensus regarding the structure, size, and composition of the governing bodies. This...; Tags: Corporate governance, Financial services, IMF, autonomy, bank, survey, board, accountability; White papers 2004-12-01

High-Pressure Phase Equilibrium for Ethylene + Ethanol at 283.65 K: The phase equilibria and saturated density for the ethylene + ethanol system at high pressures were measured at 283.65 K with a static-circulation apparatus. The coexisting phase composition and saturated density of each phase can be measured by means of the apparatus with a maximum temperature and pressure of 400...; Tags: American Chemical Society; White papers 2004-11-20
Scanning Raman Spectroscopy for Characterizing Compositionally Spread Films: Composition-spread La1-xSrxMnO3 thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition technique from LaMnO3 and SrMnO3 targets. The films were epitaxial with a continuous variation of the out-of-plane lattice parameter along the direction of composition gradient. Scanning Raman spectroscopy has been employed as a nondestructive tool to characterize the composition-spread films....; Tags: PRODUCTIVITY, American Chemical Society, technique, agreement, tool; White papers 2004-10-23
A Calorie Is a Calorie Violates the Second Law of Thermodynamics: The principle of "a calorie is a calorie," that weight change in hypocaloric diets is independent of macronutrient composition, is widely held in the popular and technical literature, and is frequently justified by appeal to the laws of thermodynamics. The paper reviews here some aspects of thermodynamics that bear on...; Tags: BioMed Central, calorie, thermodynamics; White papers 2004-07-28
An Ontology-Based Approach for Competence Bundling and Composition of Ad-Hoc Teams in an Organisation: This paper describes the current work in supporting the ad-hoc composition of teams, recruited from independent departments in an organisation, in order to solve a specific customer request. The paper proposes the usage of a web-based decision support system using ontologies as a conceptual model for representing the organisation-specific competence...; Tags: Team, Ontology, Composition, Team Management, Strategy, Management; White papers 2004-06-30
Nutritive Value of Feeds for Beef Cattle: Producers have to ensure that their animals' diets include the proper balance of the six essential nutrients in a physical form that maintains digestive system health and function. To accomplish this, producers must have good knowledge of available feed nutrient composition, physical and digestive characteristics, and the animal's nutrient requirements....; Tags: knowledge; White papers 2004-06-01
Mergers And The Composition Of International Commerce: From the executive summary: 'The paper illuminates a theory of cross-border Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As). Firms can choose between different modes of foreign market access: exporting, Greenfield Foreign Direct Investment FDI, and cross border M&A. The theory is based on three key ideas. First, there is heterogeneity in firms' capabilities....; Tags: Mergers & Acquisitions, M&A, merger, theory, mobility; White papers 2004-03-01
Crystallization Path of Natural Brine Evaporation Using the DPAO Method: The aim of this work is computing the chemical composition changes of a given initial solution and the number of moles of salt precipitated along a progressive concentration of brine solution by evaporation with DPAO, then to determine crystallization paths of a mineral assemblage reacting with water, and finally to...; Tags: Reed Elsevier Inc.; White papers 2004-02-25
Surface Characterization of Low-Temperature Plasma Treated Wool Fibre: Investigation results revealed that after the Low-Temperature Plasma LTP treatment, the hydrophilicity of wool fibers was improved significantly. Such an improvement enhances the wool dyeing and finishing processes, which might be due to the wool surface changing to a more reactive one. This paper explains the results of a process...; Tags: Network technology, fiber, plasma, oxygen, hydrogen; White papers 2003-12-01
Hydrate Composition From Seismic Data - An Inverse Procedure: The presence of clathrates gas hydrates is well established observationally in the offshore region of the South caspian basin as well as in many other regions of the world.1-3 hydrates of given composition can exist under particular pressure/temperature conditions. In that case, part or all of the mass of hydrates...; Tags: Business Briefings; White papers 2003-11-04
Sequential Composition for Control of Underactuated Systems: This white paper presents a new approach for developing hybrid feedback policies for the control of systems with nonholonomic constraints and extends the idea of sequential composition and uses it to switch between controllers in a state based manner, resulting in a globally convergent, pure feedback policy. Individual controllers in...; Tags: Carnegie-Mellon University, vision; White papers 2003-11-01
Managing Milk Composition: Evaluating Herd Potential: This fact sheet discusses key points that can help determine your herd's potential for milk production. Producers using DHIA Dairy Herd Improvement Association records are in the best position to critically evaluate their nutrition and feeding management programs. They are encouraged to work with their management teams to consider the...; Tags: herd, nutrition; White papers 2003-08-01
Risk Sharing and the Distribution of Copyright Collective Income: Copyright collectives are groups of individual copyright holders who join together in order to save on the important transactions costs that exist in the market for their individual rights. The objective of this paper is to analyze the risk sharing benefits that copyright collectives can offer, but currently do not....; Tags: Consumer electronics, University of Georgia, CD-ROM, income, benefit; White papers 2003-05-23
Housing, Consumption, and Asset Pricing: This paper builds an equilibrium asset pricing model with housing consumption. Agents care about the composition of a consumption basket that contains shelter and other goods. The presence of composition risk increases the mean and variance of excess stock returns and lowers the risk free rate. Stock prices exhibit mean...; Tags: Asset management, Investment, Stanford University, asset pricing, asset, stock, stock price, agent; White papers 2003-05-01
Understanding and Complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley and NYSE and Nasdaq Requirements Affecting Audit Committees: "The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”) and the new corporate governance listing standards proposed by The New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
