This paper attempts to provide an empirical evaluation of the potential relationship between sectoral linkages (backward and
forward) and technical efficiency using the 1995 input–output tables for 14 EU countries. Sectoral technical efficiency is
obtained by the econometric estimation of a “multilateral” stochastic input distance function, while sectoral backward and
forward linkage coefficients were computed using the noncomplete hypothetical extraction method suggested by Dietzenbacher
and Van der Linden (J Reg Sci 37:235–257, 1997). The empirical results suggest that the relationship between industrial technical
efficiency and sectoral interdependence is ambiguous. Although the majority of the countries, in the sample exhibit a negative
relationship, for some countries, the opposite is revealed. This implies that policy makers should not be blindly based on
sectoral interdependence in forming development plans, and they should take into consideration the efficiency of resource
utilization of individual sectors. The combination of the information provided by both indices will assist in devising effective
policy plans in stimulating internal economic growth. 相似文献

Extensions in prerequisite‐free, disjunction‐free default theories have been shown to be in direct correspondence with kernels
of directed graphs; hence default theories without odd cycles always have a “standard” kind of an extension. We show that,
although all “standard” extensions can be enumerated explicitly, several other problems remain intractable for such theories:
Telling whether a non‐standard extension exists, enumerating all extensions, and finding the minimal standard extension. We
also present a new graph‐theoretic algorithm, based on vertex feedback sets, for enumerating all extensions of a general prerequisite‐free,
disjunction‐free default theory (possibly with odd cycles). The algorithm empirically performs well for quite large theories.
This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

Dynamics and reactivity in heme proteins include direct and indirect interactions of the ligands/substrates like CO, NO and O2 with the environment. Direct electrostatic interactions result from amino acid side chains in the inner cavities and/or metal coordination in the active site, whereas indirect interactions result by ligands in the same coordination sphere. Interactions play a crucial role in stabilizing transition states in catalysis or altering ligation chemistry. We have probed, by Density Functional Theory (DFT), the perturbation degree in the stretching vibrational frequencies of CO, NO and O2 molecules in the presence of electrostatic interactions or hydrogen bonds, under conditions simulating the inner cavities. Moreover, we have studied the vibrational characteristics of the heme bound form of the CO and NO ligands by altering the chemistry of the proximal to the heme ligand. CO, NO and O2 molecules are highly polarizable exerting vibrational shifts up to 80, 200 and 120 cm−1, respectively, compared to the non-interacting ligand. The importance of Density Functional Theory (DFT) methodology in the investigation of the heme-ligand-protein interactions is also addressed. 相似文献

The next generation of wireless mobile communications termed beyond 3G (or 4G), will be based on a heterogeneous infrastructure
that comprises different wireless networks in a complementary manner. Beyond 3G will introduce reconfiguration capabilities
to flexibly and dynamically (i.e., during operation) adapt the wireless protocol stacks to better meet the ever-changing service
requirements. For the dynamic reconfiguration of protocol stacks during runtime operation to become a practical capability
of mobile communication systems, it is necessary to establish a software architecture that functionally supports reconfiguration.
In the present paper, a generic architecture and respective mechanisms to achieve protocol stack and component based protocol
layer reconfiguration are proposed.

The weakly NP-hard single-machine total tardiness scheduling problem has been extensively studied in the last decades. Various heuristics have been proposed to efficiently solve in practice a problem for which a fully polynomial time approximation scheme exists (though with complexity O(n
7/)). In this note, we show that all known constructive heuristics for the problem, namely AU, MDD, PSK, WI, COVERT, NBR, present arbitrarily bad approximation ratios. The same behavior is shown by the decomposition heuristics DEC/EDD, DEC/MDD, DEC/PSK, and DEC/WI. 相似文献

Traditionally, end customers have been offered different categories of communication, data and media services (e.g., fixed/mobile voice, fixed/mobile data, broadcasting) through vertically separated, rigidly integrated infrastructures. Major advances in a variety of technological fields, mainly in the area of mobile computing and networking, have created prospects for a fully converged environment, where ubiquitous access to an abundance of value-added services will be offered over a single, as perceived by the users, highly reconfigurable system. This vision can be enabled by the seamless plugging of diverse access networks to a high-speed IP backbone; however the path to its realization poses a variety of additional challenges. The required support of complicated business models and service delivery over highly diverse contexts introduces significant complexity to service management and provision. The present contribution presents object-oriented mediating service management platforms as a catalyst for making these demanding tasks feasible, identifies their desired functionality and provides an overview of such a distributed framework that we have designed and prototyped. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the latter is able to be a critical enabler of flexible, adaptable service provision over future heterogeneous networks, while supporting advanced business paradigms. 相似文献

Website Archivability (WA) is a notion established to capture the core aspects of a website, crucial in diagnosing whether it has the potential to be archived with completeness and accuracy. In this work, aiming at measuring WA, we introduce and elaborate on all aspects of CLEAR+, an extended version of the Credible Live Evaluation Method for Archive Readiness (CLEAR) method. We use a systematic approach to evaluate WA from multiple different perspectives, which we call Website Archivability Facets. We then analyse archiveready.com, a web application we created as the reference implementation of CLEAR+, and discuss the implementation of the evaluation workflow. Finally, we conduct thorough evaluations of all aspects of WA to support the validity, the reliability and the benefits of our method using real-world web data. 相似文献

The monitoring of sleep patterns is of major importance for various reasons such as the detection and treatment of sleep disorders, the assessment of the effect of different medical conditions or medications on the sleep quality, and the assessment of mortality risks associated with sleeping patterns in adults and children. Sleep monitoring by itself is a difficult problem due to both privacy and technical considerations. The proposed system uses a combination of non-invasive sensors to assess and report sleep patterns: a contact-based pressure mattress and a non-contact 3D image acquisition device, which can complement each other. To evaluate our system, we used real data collected in Heracleia Lab’s assistive living apartment. Our system uses Machine Learning techniques to automatically analyze the collected data and recognize sleep patterns. It is non-invasive, as it does not disrupt the user’s usual sleeping behavior and it can be used both at the clinic and at home with minimal cost. 相似文献
