Abstract:

This thesis highlights the role of transport infrastructure on educational attainment and health outcomes in Nepal. Nepal being a developing country with accessibility problems due to its mountainous terrain gives a suitable context for this research where people in rural areas often travel long distances to get to basic services like health care and education. The thesis is comprised of two papers, one of the papers has been published in an appropriate peer-reviewed journal another one is intended for publication at later stage. The first paper relates the association between travel time to

Background: Human papillomavirus vaccination is newly developed in this decade. There are 2 types of vaccines. Bivalent vaccine targets on HPV types 16, 18 to prevent cervical cancer. Quadrivalent vaccine target on HPV type 6, 11, 16, 18 to prevent genital warts and cervical cancer. England has adopted a population –based HPV vaccination program. In attempt to find out the worthiness to implement the population-based vaccination program in Hong Kong, this project reviewed 15 cost-effectiveness analyses in Asian countries.

Abstract:

Le carbone est une donnée complexe à définir et à mesurer sur le plan financier. Pour autant, il joue un rôle majeur aujourd’hui dans l’analyse et les stratégies de décision des investisseurs car il influence directement la valorisation des firmes. La littérature constate d’ailleurs une influence significative du coût du carbone sur le coût des capitaux propres. Ce lien permet de poser en amont trois hypothèses majeures qui s’appuient sur la modulation du risque, sur la recherche de légitimité et sur la préférence des investisseurs. En effet, il existe diverses typologies d’indicateurs carbone

Cost analysts exhaustively analyze manpower and resources to provide accurate estimates, however the influence of transaction costs is often ignored in traditional cost estimates. This thesis investigates the association between cost growth and transaction costs, the real cost of business negotiations and program management.

Looking at newspapers nowadays, you are likely to see reports about public projects which turn out to be more expensive than estimated, sometimes even fourteen times the planned cost budget as in the case of the Sydney Opera. In order to gain a new insight on how this problematic could be improved, this paper aims to find correlations between the causes of deviations in public procurement and in the private market. Data from a on a global scale operating firm has been analyzed and compared to causes found in prior research. The questions this paper aims to answer are “Are causes and correlatio

Abstract:

An effective silicon debug technique uses a trace buffer to monitor and capture a portion of the circuit response during its functional, post-silicon operation. Due to the limited space of the available trace buffer, selection of the critical trace signals plays an important role in both minimizing the number of signals traced and maximizing the observability/restorability of other untraced signals during post-silicon validation. In this thesis, a new method is proposed for trace buffer signal selection for the purpose of post-silicon debug. The selection is performed by favoring those signals

Abstract:

Among species, populations, and individuals, there exists a tremendous amount of variation in how hosts respond to, and are thus protected from parasites. Such variation inevitably affects host-parasite dynamics and ultimately how parasites will move through and evolve in communities. A likely factor in the diversity of immune responses seen in nature are the costs associated with activation of the immune system upon exposure to parasites. Costs can manifest in many ways, including changes in resource usage or metabolism, self-damage from inflammatory reactions, lost opportunities (e.g., forag

The United States trucking industry underwent deregulation starting in 1980.

There has been similar opposition and support for the trucking provisions of NAFTA. Although the provisions have not been fully implemented, the trucking industry is well aware it will only be a m
