"... Explaining cross-country differences in growth rates requires not only an understanding of the link between growth and public policies, but also an understanding of why countries choose different public policies. This paper shows that ethnic diversity helps explain cross-country differences in publi ..."

Explaining cross-country differences in growth rates requires not only an understanding of the link between growth and public policies, but also an understanding of why countries choose different public policies. This paper shows that ethnic diversity helps explain cross-country differences

Risk-management: coordinating corporate investment and financing policies

by Kenneth A. Froot, David S. Scharfstein, Jeremy C. Stein , 1993
"... This paper develops a general framework for analyzing corporate risk management policies. We begin by observing that if external sources of finance are more costly to corporations than internally generated funds, there will typically be a benefit to hedging: hedging adds value to the extent that it ..."

that it helps ensure that a corporation has sufficient internal funds available to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities. We then argue that this simple observation has wide ranging impli-cations for the design of risk management strategies. We delineate how these strategies should depend

The x-Kernel: An Architecture for Implementing Network Protocols

by Norman C. Hutchinson, Larry L. Peterson - IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering , 1991
"... This paper describes a new operating system kernel, called the x-kernel, that provides an explicit architecture for constructing and composing network protocols. Our experience implementing and evaluating several protocols in the x-kernel shows that this architecture is both general enough to acc ..."

abstractions through which processes running on those processors exchange messages. Network software is extremely complex: it must hide the details of the underlying hardware, recover from transmission failures, ensure that messages are delivered to the application processes in the appropriate order

Semantic matching of web services capabilities

by Massimo Paolucci, Takahiro Kawamura, Terry R. Payne, Katia Sycara , 2002
"... Abstract. The Web is moving from being a collection of pages toward a collection of services that interoperate through the Internet. The first step toward this interoperation is the location of other services that can help toward the solution of a problem. In this paper we claim that location of web ..."

"... ABSTRACT Using dealer's quotes and transactions prices on straight industrial bonds, we investigate the determinants of credit spread changes. Variables that should in theory determine credit spread changes have rather limited explanatory power. Further, the residuals from this regression are ..."

How to make a decision: the analytic hierarchy process

by Thomas L. Saaty - European Journal of Operational Research , 1990
"... Policy makers at all levels of decision making in organizations use multiple criteria to analyze their complex problems. Multicriteria thinking is used formally to facilitate their decision making. Through trade-offs it clarifies the advantages and disadvantages of policy options under circumstances ..."
Abstract - Cited by 411 (0 self) - Add to MetaCart
thinking leads to sequences of ideas that are so tangled that their interconnections are not readily discerned. The lack of a coherent procedure to make decisions is especially troublesome when our intuition alone cannot help us to determine which of several options is the most desirable, or the least
