Heterogeneous Characteristics of Korean Patients with
, 2011
"... This study was not sponsored by any industries, governments or institutions. Dysferlinopathy is caused by mutations in the DYSF gene. To characterize the clinical spectrum, we investigated the characteristics of 31 Korean dysferlinopathy patients confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The mean age of sy ..."

A Measurement Study of Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems
, 2002
"... The popularity of peer-to-peer multimedia file sharing applications such as Gnutella and Napster has created a flurry of recent research activity into peer-to-peer architectures. We believe that the proper evaluation of a peer-to-peer system must take into account the characteristics of the peers th ..."

to these hosts, how often hosts connect and disconnect from the system, how many les hosts share and download, the degree of cooperation between the hosts, and several correlations between these characteristics. Our measurements show that there is significant heterogeneity and lack of cooperation across peers
An Architecture for Wide-Area Multicast Routing
"... Existing multicast routing mechanisms were intended for use within regions where a group is widely represented or bandwidth is universally plentiful. When group members, and senders to those group members, are distributed sparsely across a wide area, these schemes are not efficient; data packets or ..."

Travel Demand Model Calibration for Areas with Heterogeneous Characteristics
- ITE Journal
, 1992
"... T ravel demand model calibration is ~ usually a very cumbersome process that involves several iterative trial-anderror procedures. The degree of difficulty in calibrating a travel demand model depends on several elements, including the scope of the study, the availability of data, the software used, ..."

Global Sourcing
- Journal of Political Economy
"... We present a North-South model of international trade in which differentiated products are developed in the North. Sectors are populated by final-good producers who differ in productivity levels. On the basis of productivity and sectoral characteristics, firms decide whether to integrate into the pr ..."

in which firms with different productivity levels choose different ownership structures and supplier locations. We then study the effects of withinsectoral heterogeneity and variations in industry characteristics on the relative prevalence of these organizational forms. I.
Equilibrium Wage Dispersion with Worker and Employer Heterogeneity
- ECONOMETRICA
"... We construct and estimate an equilibrium search model with on-the-job-search. Firms make take-it-or-leave-it wage offers to workers conditional on their characteristics and they can respond to the outside job offers received by their employees. Unobserved worker productive heterogeneity is introduc ..."

Frictionless commerce? a comparison of internet and conventional retailers
- Management Science
, 2000
"... There have been many claims that the Internet represents a new nearly “frictionless market. ” Our research empirically analyzes the characteristics of the Internet as a channel for two categories of homogeneous products—books and CDs. Using a data set of over 8,500 price observations collected over ..."

Taming Heterogeneity - The Ptolemy Approach
, 2003

Modern embedded computing systems tend to be heterogeneous in the sense of being composed of subsystems with very different characteristics, which communicate and interact in a variety of ways---synchronous or asynchronous, buffered or unbuffered, etc. Obviously, when designing such systems, a mode ..."

Who trusts others?

Using individual level data drawn from US localities we find that the strongest factors associated with low trust are: (i) a recent history of traumatic experiences; (ii) belonging to a group that h ..."
