description: A világpiaci bortrendek a magasabb tudást megtestesítő prémium- és szuperprémiumborok irányába mutatnak. Európában leginkább Franciaország határozza meg ezt a vonulatot. Magyarország az elmúlt évtizedben elmaradt ettől a trendtől. Vizsgálataink szerint a tudás használata és terjedése ugyan jelentős tényező a különféle vállalkozások sokféleségében, de nem egyértelműen szignifikáns a többféle módon mért eredményesség alakításában. Ugyanakkor az is megállapítható, hogy a magyarországi vállalkozások a vállalkozás egészének innovatív jellege, a borágazatban felhalmozódott tudás napi kapcsolatokon keresztül történő terjedése és a vállalati folyamatok innovatív menedzsmentje révén piaci sikereket érhetnek el. ------------------------------------------------------- The market trends on the world wine market tend to show up emerging importance of the premium- and super premium wine categories which represent the inclusion of higher knowledge. Hungary in the recent decade has been lagged behind this new trend. According to our empirical investigation the use and spread of knowledge plays important role in explaining the differences among the wine sector companies, but not unambiguously significant in formulating market success measured in different indicators. At the same time we can conclude that the Hungarian companies – based on the (i) innovative characteristic of the enterprise (ii) spread of accumulated knowledge in wine sector through daily personal contacts (iii) innovative management of the enterprises – can achieve market success.

description: 2.1. Transcripts of the S. spicatum MEV and MEP pathway
 To identify the core biosynthetic steps of sesquiterpene formation in S. spicatum, a transcriptome established by 454-sequencing of RNA from xylem tissue containing ray parenchyma cells, where sandalwood oil is thought to be synthesised, was explored (Jones et al., 2008). The transcriptome library of 489,364 reads was produced from a single farnesol (8)-rich tree and assembled into 12,537 apparently unique contig sequences. Contigs were classified into functional ontology groups (Fig. S3). More than half (55%) of the contigs had matches of known functions in other species. Of these, the majority (28%) were annotated with ‘‘cellular’’ or ‘‘metabolic processes’’. Genes involved in secondary metabolism were found in ‘‘metabolic processes’’ and ‘‘response to stimuli’’ groups, which comprised 14% and 7% of the transcriptome, respectively. The transcriptome included candidate TPS, P450 and allylic phosphatase sequences, as well as sequences for genes of the MEV and MEP pathways (Table 1). All steps of the MEV pathway, except for phosphomevalonate kinase, were found in the heartwood xylem transcriptome. In contrast, only two enzymes of the MEP pathway were represented. These results are consistent with the MEV pathway being the primary route by which sesquiterpene precursors are produced in plants and the heartwood xylem tissue being particularly rich in sesquiterpenoids. The most abundant transcript of the terpenoid pathway in the xylem transcriptome was HMG-CoA reductase 1 (HMGR1) classified based on sequence relatedness with Arabidopsis thaliana HMGR 1 and HMGR2 (GenBank accession No. AEE35849 and AEC06618, respectively), a critical step for isoprenoid biosynthesis in plants (Chye et al., 1992; Goldstein and Brown, 1990). The MEP pathway, which provides the isoprenoid building blocks for monoterpenes and diterpenes was underrepresented in the transcriptome of S. spicatum heartwood matching the low abundance or lack of these compounds.

The localization and specialization pointers had been used indicating of having as changeable the area in busy hec-tares in the diverse uses, as the Farming Census. The results had pointed that the space standard of the lands uses in the Brazilian South region presents strong space reorganization in Paraná State, the intensive use of the natural pastures in the Paraná and the Rio Grande do Sul States and the biggest diversification in the use lands in Santa Catarina State. The regional analysis demonstrated to a trend to the redistribution and reorganization that is still not consolidated.

description: There are several FeSe based superconductors, including the bulk FeSe, monolayer FeSe thin film, intercalated KxFe2-ySe2 and Li1-xFexOHFeSe, etc. Their normal states all show metallic behavior. The key player here is the FeSe layer which exhibits the highest superconducting transition temperature in the form of monolayer thin film. Recently a new FeSe based compound, CsFe4-xSe4 with the space group of Bmmm was found. Interestingly the system shows a strong insulator-like behavior although it shares the same FeSe planes as other relatives. Density functional theory calculations indicate that it should be a metal, in sharp contrast with the experimental observations. Here we report the emergence of unconventional superconductivity by applying pressure to suppress this insulator-like behavior. At ambient pressure, the insulator-like behavior cannot be modeled as a band insulator, but can be described by the variable-range-hopping model for correlated systems. Furthermore, the specific heat down to 400 mK has been measured and a significant residual coefficient gamma_0=C/T|T->0 is observed, which contrasts the insulator-like state and suggests some quantum freedom of spin dynamics. By applying pressure the insulator-like behavior is gradually suppressed and the system becomes a metal, finally superconductivity is achieved at about 5.1 K. The superconducting transition strongly depends on magnetic field and applied current, indicating a fragile superfluid density. Our results suggest that the superconductivity is established by diluted Cooper pairs on top of a strong correlation background in CsFe4-xSe4.

description: An ab-initio calculation of the inelastic neutral reaction of neutrino on 4He is presented, including realistic nuclear force and full final state interaction among the four nucleons. The calculation uses the powerful combintation of the Lorentz integral transform (LIT) method and the hyperspherical-harmonic effective interaction approach (EIHH). The neutrino - nucleus interaction is taken in the impulse approximation. With respect to previous calculations, the current work predicts an increased reaction cross-section by 10%-30% for neutrino temperature up to 15 MeV.

description: This study aims to evaluate the producers’ efficiency using measurements of technical and scope efficiencies and calculating in-dicators of economic performance for milk producers in the municipa-lity of Sobral, Ceará, Brazil. The data type was primary gathered by applying questionnaires to 40 rural producers. The sample included only producers with a minimum yield around 15 liter/day, however yields below that level were consumed by the own farmers. The mea-surement of efficiency was determined for each one of the production units (Decision Making Unit – DMU), utilizing the technique of data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the Software DEAP v. 21, developed by Coelli (1996). First, the producers were separated according the degree of technical efficiency. After that, they were compared using economic indicators aiming to determine the magnitude of inefficiency performance (scores of efficiency lower than 0.9), which represented 67.5% of the sample. Therefore, the number of efficient producers was very low (32.5% of the sample). In general, the efficient producers showed better economic results. The negative net margin of inefficient producers indicated a serious crisis that they were suffering, which was confirmed by the disadvantageous relationship between the sale price of the product and the average cost of production.
Resource allocation problems in MIMO-OFDM systems
Creators: name: Zaidi, Irtiza
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis investigates resource allocation problems in MIMO-OFDM wireless communication systems. First, a stochastic adaptive multilevel waterfilling algorithm for optimal power allocation in a MIMO-OFDM system using imperfect channel estimates is presented. The algorithm has a self-learning capability that allows it to adapt to non-stationary fading channels. Analysis and simulations reveal the algorithm's excellent tracking ability in a slowly time-varying channel. Next, optimization of the ARITH-SINR linear cost function that takes into account power allocation issues, cross-layer issues, and the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in a MIMO-OFDM system is presented. We show that the fairness constraints on the powers result in a polymatroid. As a result, optimal power allocation is performed via a Greedy Algorithm that attains the solution in O(nlogn) computations, where n is the number of fairness power constraints. Next, the problem is extended to consider antenna constraints that take into account the PAPR at each antenna. A computationally efficient Greedy-Revised Dual Simplex Algorithm for optimal power allocation is devised. The worst case complexity of this algorithm is O(n²) per iteration. Finally in numerical studies we show the user power allocations and spectral efficiency of the algorithms.
Understanding the Fundamental Plane and the Tully Fisher Relation

description: The relation between early type galaxy size, surface brightness and velocity dispersion, "the fundamental plane", has long been understood as resulting from equilibrium in their largely pressure supported stellar dynamics. The dissipation and feedback involved in reaching such an equilibrium through merger formation of these galaxies over cosmic time can be responsible for the orientation of the plane. We see a correlation between surface brightness enhancement and youth in the 6dF Galaxy Survey. Correlations of this `tilt' with stellar mass, age, concentration, shape and metallicity now point the direction for further work on the resolved kinematics and structure of these nearby galaxies and on their initial mass function and dark matter component. On the face of it, the Tully Fisher relation is a simpler one dimensional scaling relation. However, as late type galaxies have bulges as well as disks, and, as the surface density of disks is only standard for the more massive galaxies, additional parameters are involved.

We have seen that the transition rates converges toward the constant function with the value 1 in the limit delta -> 0. The observed critical exponent of the singularity at the lower boundary is compared with the one predicted from the comformal field theory. We confirm that they are in good agreement. Further we have discovered that a small peak emerges near the upper boundary in the line shape of S(q,omega) for 0

description: The chicken production in Viçosa area is done by integration agreement with Pif Paf Company and it is an important option for incre-asing the income of small farmers. The objective of this paper is to check the viability of integration agreements. A project of a plant for chicken production was drawn and observed in order to determine its profitabi-lity and risks, with the purpose of helping the decision making. The Net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return, Cost/Benefit Ratio, Risk Sensitivity and Risk Analysis were calculated. The results show that the project is fea-sible and the profitability is more sensitive to changes in production price than changes in production costs. This study also points out that the in-tegration agreement does not eliminate the risk of the production, in other words, the company transfers part of the price risk to the producers.

description: We define the equivariant Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a possibly singular algebraic variety with a group action over the complex number field (or a field of characteristic 0). In fact, we construct a natural transformation from the equivariant constructible function functor to the equivariant homology functor (in the sense of Totaro-Edidin-Graham), which may be regarded as MacPherson's transformation for (certain) quotient stacks. We discuss on other type Chern/Segre classes and give some applications generalizing orbifold Euler characteristics and Thom polynomials of singularities. The Verdier-Riemann-Roch formula takes a key role throughout.

description: The knowledge of demographic traits such as longevity, growth rates and age at sexual maturity is crucial for understanding the structure of a population in its natural environment and implementing appropriate strategies for its management and conservation. Based on counts of growth layer groups in sections of decalcified teeth using the paraffin technique, we estimated the age and growth of 25 individuals of striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba) found dead stranded along the coast of Campania and Calabria (south Italy, central-western Mediterranean) from 2013 to 2018. Seven individuals, with TL of 100–110 cm, were calves under 1 year old. The oldest male and female individuals were 19 and 14 years old, respectively. Growth curve estimated using the Gompertz growth model (GGM) showed that in S. coeruleoalba male growth trajectories are partly in accordance with those reported in other studies on the same species from different Mediterranean areas. The high frequency (28%) of calves strongly suggests that females of this species use the marine area all around the south-western Italian coasts to give birth to their offspring. Furthermore, a comparison with the estimated age of striped dolphins from other Mediterranean marine areas shows that the longevity of the individuals examined in this study is much lower. Our study provides information toward understanding the demographic traits of S. coeruleoalba from Mediterranean Sea. The results reported here can be useful for future research aimed at understanding population structure, mortality patterns and the effects of anthropogenic activity on the survival of this species in this marine area.

description: There is an urgent need to rethink our global food systems. The world is facing a nutrition crisis, and the way we produce and consume food is altering the equilibrium of our planet, causing environmental damage and biodiversity loss, and climate change which further compromises food security. Children are disproportionately affected, and school meals are being increasingly recognized as a key investment for governments to tackle these challenges. 

Through national school meals programs, around 418 million children currently receive a meal at school every day. This provides an exceptional opportunity for the implementation planet-friendly policies which have enormous co-benefits for child health and the wider society. To explore these opportunities, this White Paper was prepared by The Research Consortium for School Health and Nutrition, an initiative of The School Meals Coalition (SMC), a multilateral coalition of 95+ countries aiming to improve and expand national school meal programs for all children. The White Paper, written in collaboration with 85 organizations worldwide, explains how implementing planet-friendly school meal programs can provide far reaching co-benefits for public health and human capital. The paper proposes that to maximize the transformative potential of school meal programs, governments should focus on two sets of policies. First, those that can create immediate benefits for children and the planet, including: adopting nutritious, diverse, whole foods menus; switching to clean, efficient and sustainable energy for cooking; minimizing food and package waste; and empowering children by establishing life-long healthy and sustainable food habits through holistic food education. Secondly, leveraging the power of procurement, governments can create demand-driven changes to support sustainable ecological and regenerative agriculture practices, which promote biodiversity, resilience, and food sovereignty.

The cryostat is a multi stage device with several shielding in addition to several optical stages. The system has been designed with an external liquid Nitrogen boiler to reduce the liquid bubbling. The optical and mechanical properties of the optical elements were calculated and optimized for the designed configuration while the optical layout has been simulated and optimized among different configurations based on the geometry of the device. The final design has been optimized for low noise radiation measurements of proximity junction arrays under applied magnetic field in the wavelength range $λ$=250-2500 $μ$m.

description: The present article aims at measuring the final demand im-pact on the forest-based industry by using the 1998 State of Paraná so-cial accounting matrix as the analysis tool. We also had to calculate the matrix multipliers. The increased effects of exogenous activity on the Wood/Furniture and Paper/Pulp activities brought a more intense demand shock to that sector. We noticed that the Wood and Furniture activity is mostly connected with the tertiary sector activities, while the Paper and Pulp activity is mostly connected with activities that need packing. Finally, we could identify the main impacts originated by an increased final demand in spite of the reduction in the number of Paraná Social Accounting Matrix economic activities.

description: Integral geometry deals with those integral transforms which associate to ``functions'' on a manifold their integrals along submanifolds parameterized by another manifold. Basic problems in this context are range characterization--where systems of PDE appear--and inversion formulae. As we pointed out in a series of joint papers with Pierre Schapira, the language of sheaves and D-modules provides both a natural framework and powerful tools for the study of such problems. In particular, it provides a general adjunction formula which is a sort of archetypical theorem in integral geometry. Focusing on range characterization, we illustrate this approach with a discussion of the Radon transform, in some of its manifold manifestations.

description: A dynamic rational expectation storage models was developed to represent the Brazilian corn market in the late 90’s. In theses years the Brazilian agricultural price policy changed from a buffer stock scheme to a producer price subsidy (Prêmio para Escoamento de Produto – PEP) and the Brazilian market was open to international trade. The model was estimated through stochastic dynamic programming. The results show that with open markets, exports and imports play the role of shocks absorbers, played by storage in closed economies. Results suggest that the producer price subsidy policy may lead the country to be an exporter, depending on the relative values between minimum price and export price at the cost of ever increasing government expenditures.
Jet break time -- flux density relationship and constraints on physical parameters of GRB afterglows

description: We derive a relation between the flux density $F_{ν,j}$ at the light-curve break of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow and the break time $t_{j}$. The break is due to the transition from the spherical-like to jet-like evolution of the afterglow, when the Lorentz factor of the jet equals the inverse of the initial half-opening angle, i.e., $γ=1/θ_0$. We show that this relation indeed behaves as $F_{ν,j}\propto t_{j}^{-p}$ among GRBs for the slow-cooling case, where $p$ is the power-law index of electron distribution. A statistical analysis of the optical jet breaks of nine GRBs gives $p=2.10\pm 0.21$, which is consistent with the shock acceleration theory. The value of $p$ derived in this way is different from the observed temporal index $α_2$ ($F_ν\propto t^{-α_{2}}$) of the late-time light curve after $t_{j}$, which suffers several uncertainties from the unclear hydrodynamics of the sideways expansion and exhibits a large dispersion. Our results not only confirm that the remnants of GRBs are standard candles, but also provide the first evidence that the physical parameters of relativistic shocks are universal, with the favored values $ε_{e}\sim 0.1$ and $ε_{B}\sim 10^{-3}$.

description: We introduce a method for generating a continuous, mass-conserving and high-order differentiable density field from a discrete point distribution such as particles or halos from an N-body simulation or galaxies from a spectroscopic survey. The method consists on generating an ensemble of point realizations by perturbing the original point set following the geometric constraints imposed by the Delaunay tessellation in the vicinity of each point in the set. By computing the mean field of the ensemble we are able to significantly reduce artifacts arising from the Delaunay tessellation in poorly sampled regions while conserving the features in the point distribution. Our implementation is based on the Delaunay Tessellation Field Estimation (DTFE) method, however other tessellation techniques are possible. The method presented here shares the same advantages of the DTFE method such as self-adaptive scale, mass conservation and continuity, while being able to reconstruct even the faintest structures of the point distribution usually dominated by artifacts in Delaunay-based methods. Additionally, we also present preliminary results of an application of this method to image denoising and artifact removal, highlighting the broad applicability of the technique introduced here.

description: This paper aims to identify the influence of several factors linked with the familiar farmer income, which can reinforce or not the basic idea of policy of incentive of the familiar agricultural implemented by Government since 1996. The profits were estimated based on OLS linear regression in two stages, with the equation of second moment has been adjusted by incorporation of inverse ration of Mills generate with the result of probit model, where is estimated the possibility of the producers of vegetables demand or not the credit. It was evident the di-sadvantage of trade via the big supermarkets, because they contribute to reduce, in according to Mello (2001), the gains of vegetables producers.

description: In-vehicle human object identification plays an important role in vision-based automated vehicle driving systems while objects such as pedestrians and vehicles on roads or streets are the primary targets to protect from driverless vehicles. A challenge is the difficulty to detect objects in moving under the wild conditions, while illumination and image quality could drastically vary. In this work, to address this challenge, we exploit Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGANs) with Single Shot Detector (SSD) to handle with the wild conditions. In our work, a GAN was trained with low-quality images to handle with the challenges arising from the wild conditions in smart cities, while a cascaded SSD is employed as the object detector to perform with the GAN. We used tested our approach under wild conditions using taxi driver videos on London street in both daylight and night times, and the tests from in-vehicle videos demonstrate that this strategy can drastically achieve a better detection rate under the wild conditions.

description: Based on the standard energy reservoir of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets and the relationship between peak energy ($E_p$) of $νF_ν$ spectrum and the equivalent-isotropic energy ($E_{\rm{iso}}$), we test the GRB probability distributions as a function of viewing angle ($θ$) and of viewing angle together with redshift $z$, $P(θ)$ and $P(θ,z)$, predicted by the universal-structured jet (USJ) model with simulations on observational bases for a detection threshold of $S>4 \times 10^{-5}$ erg cm$^{-2}$, where $S$ is the total fluence in an energy band $>20$ keV. We simulate a sample including $10^{6}$ GRBs, and then derive $P(θ)$ and $P(θ,z)$. We show that both simulated and theoretical $P(θ)$ and $P(θ,z)$ are consistent with each other. This consistency seems to be regarded as support for the USJ model. A small difference between the theoretical and simulated results might be due to the observed $E_p$ distribution used in our simulations, which perhaps suffers a little of biases for $E_p<100$ keV.

description: The CMS experiment recorded 177.75 /fb of proton-proton collision data during the RUN-1 and RUN-2 data taking period. Successful data taking at increasing instantaneous luminosities with the evolving detector configuration was a big achievement of the collaboration. The CMS RPC system provided redundant information for the robust muon triggering, reconstruction, and identification. To ensure stable data taking, the CMS RPC collaboration has performed detector operation, calibration, and performance studies. Various software and related tools are developed and maintained accordingly. In this paper, the overall performance of the CMS RPC system and experiences of the data taking during the RUN-2 period are summarised.

description: We propose generalizations of the Hotelling's $T^2$ statistic and the Bhattacharayya distance for data taking values in Lie groups. A key feature of the derived measures is that they are compatible with the group structure even for manifolds that do not admit any bi-invariant metric. This property, e.g., assures analysis that does not depend on the reference shape, thus, preventing bias due to arbitrary choices thereof. Furthermore, the generalizations agree with the common definitions for the special case of flat vector spaces guaranteeing consistency. Employing a permutation test setup, we further obtain nonparametric, two-sample testing procedures that themselves are bi-invariant and consistent. We validate our method in group tests revealing significant differences in hippocampal shape between individuals with mild cognitive impairment and normal controls.

description: The breeding of ovine and caprine possess high partner-econo-mic importance in the Northeast, however, the low genetic potential of the herds, as well as the scarcity of pastures during the dry season, limits the productivity and lucrativeness indices to a low level. The use of cultivated pastures is a way to maintain in high level the carrying capacity of the pasture over the year. This work was conducted with the aim of increase the productivity, expand the income and stimulate the producer to invest in new productive techniques. 100 Sem Raça Definida sheep and three periods were used. The rest period consisted of: treatment 1 - time for expansion of 1.5 new leaves per tiller; treatment 2 - time for expansion of 2.5 new leaves per tiller and treatment 3 - time for expansion of 3.5 new leaves per tiller. The analysis considered the use of 1, 3 or 5 hectares of pasture, fenced by campestre screen or electric fence. The efficiency indices adopted were: benefit cost relation, liquid present value, return internal tax, and sensitivity analysis. The 2.5 leaves rest period exploring at least 5.0 hectares presented best performance, in terms economics, biological and environmental. So, to promote economic return, it is necessary to use sheep of higher genetic potential and pastures areas above 5.0 hectares.

Nationalist propaganda and the February 28th incident : re-sinicizing the 'japanized' Taiwanese, 1945-1947
Creators: name: Yang, Meng-Hsuan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis seeks to examine the factors that led to the February 28th Incident of 1947 in Taiwan in which tens of thousands of Taiwanese were massacred by the Nationalist troops from Mainland China. The Nationalist crackdown was a counter measure against a spontaneous island-wide insurrection that broke out approximately a year and a half after Taiwan was returned to China at the end of the Pacific War. The Incident was a censored issue in Taiwan until recently. Since the late 1980s and early 1990s, it has become one of the most intensively researched and vehemently debated subjects in Taiwan. After fifteen years of study, main contributing factors to the Incident such as Nationalist misrule, social and cultural differences between China and Taiwan, and factional struggles in the Nationalist Party were identified. This study aims to provide a more nuanced interpretation of the origins of the Incident by demonstrating that Nationalist propaganda designed to re-Sinicize the 'Japanized' Taiwanese also contributed to the Taiwanese uprising. Evidence from three major newspapers published in Taiwan between October 1945 and February 1947 will be used to illustrate the author's contention. Theories of propaganda and communication will also be utilized to support the main argument.

Error analysis of quadratic power spectrum estimates for CMB polarization: sampling covariance

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004

description: Quadratic methods with heuristic weighting (e.g. pseudo-C_l or correlation function methods) represent an efficient way to estimate power spectra of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and their polarization. We construct the sample covariance properties of such estimators for CMB polarization, and develop semi-analytic techniques to approximate the pseudo-C_l sample covariance matrices at high Legendre multipoles, taking account of the geometric effects of mode coupling and the mixing between the electric (E) and magnetic (B) polarization that arise for observations covering only part of the sky. The E-B mixing ultimately limits the applicability of heuristically-weighted quadratic methods to searches for the gravitational-wave signal in the large-angle B-mode polarization, even for methods that can recover (exactly) unbiased estimates of the B-mode power. We show that for surveys covering one or two per cent of the sky, the contribution of E-mode power to the covariance of the recovered B-mode power spectrum typically limits the tensor-to-scalar ratio that can be probed with such methods to around 0.05.
