Local consequences of international drug control
(Instituto Vasco de Criminología, 2005)
[ES] Se analiza la relación entre la legislación india sobre drogas y los diversos usos culturales e históricos que se dan en esta sociedad. Frente a una aceptación social de los usos culturales se impone una criminalización ...
On pole-placement controllers for linear time-delay systems with commensurate point delays
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
We investigate the exact and approximate spectrum assignment properties associated with realizable output-feedback pole-placement-type controllers for single-input single-output linear time-invariant time-delay systems ...
Fractional hold circuits versus positive realness of discrete transfer functions
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
The appropriate use of fractional-order holds(beta-FROH) of correcting gains beta is an element of[- 1,1] as an alternative to the classical zero- and first-order holds(ZOHs, FOHs) is discussed related to the positive ...
How Does the New Keynesian Monetary Model Fit in the U.S. and the Eurozone? an Indirect Inference Approach
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2005-05)
This paper estimates a standard version of the New Keynesian monetary (NKM) model under alternative specifications of the monetary policy rule using U.S. and Eurozone data. The estimation procedure implemented is a classical ...
Robustly stable multiestimation scheme for adaptive control and identification with model reduction issues
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
A discrete pole-placement-based and multiestimation-based adaptive control scheme involving a relative adaptation dead zone is presented for a plant with known poles and unknown zeros., The basic usefulness of the proposed ...
Adaptive control of single-input single-output hybrid systems possessing interacting discrete- and continuous-time dynamics
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
This paper deals with the problem of synthesizing a robust adaptive controller for a specific class of single-input single-output (SISO) time-invariant hybrid controlled object (plant) which can operate under bounded ...
Valuing Flexibility: The case of an Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle Power Plant
(2005-10)
In this paper we analyze the valuation of options stemming from the flexibility in an Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) Power Plant. First we use as a base case the opportunity to invest in a Natural Gas Combined ...
A two-stage stochastic integer programming approach
(2005)
We present an algorithmic approach for solving two-stage stochastic mixed 0-1 problems. The first stage constraints of the Deterministic Equivalent Model have 0--1 variables and continuous variables. The approach uses the ...
Semiparametric estimation in perturbed long memory series
(2005-05)
The estimation of the memory parameter in perturbed long memory series has recently attracted attention motivated especially by the strong persistence of the volatility in many financial and economic time series and the ...
Multiple imputation of time series: an application to the construction of historical price indexes
(2005)
Time series in many areas of application, and notably in the social sciences, are frequently incomplete. This is particularly annoying when we need to have complete data, for instance to compute indexes as a weighted average ...
