Abstract:
This paper explores the regulation of specific performance of sales by reference to Spain and the USA, two jurisdictions which are exemplars of their respective legal families. It contrasts provisions under the Spanish Civil Code, Spain's Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil, and under the American Uniform Commercial Code, and speculates on the interaction of these municipal laws with the regulation of specific performance under the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). The study is split into two parts, the first of which appears here, and the second of which follows in the next issue of the Edinburgh Law Review. In this first part, section B outlines method, while section C explores the modern Spanish doctrine on performance and damages in light of the Romano-Germanic preference for performance. Section D examines the preference for damages over performance in US commercial law. By comparing Spanish and United States approaches to specific performance, Section E identifies points of possible convergence between the two systems as well as some noteworthy differences between them. In the second part of the study, Section F will explore the CISG's approach to specific performance, with the goal of inquiring, on one hand, whether the drafters have successfully accounted for both the Anglo-American and the Romano-Germanic preferences, or, on the other hand, whether the CISG's synthesis of the preferences is faulty and manifests incompatible goals that may be difficult to harmonise. Recent US decisions on specific performance under the CISG will be sampled in section G, which will make explicit some assumptions underlying the reasoning processes of US courts in commercial cases. Section H, an epilogue, will speculate on reasons for the intensity of the rivalry between proponents of specific performance as a primary remedy and those favouring damages as a primary remedy.

Abstract:
This research provides the evaluation of the technical measurements of pavement marking materials from a two-year data collection on 2002 National Transportation Product Evaluation Program (NTPEP)?s Mississippi Test Deck from June, 2002 to June 2004. The materials studied in this research were divided into permanent and temporary material groups on two different pavement surfaces ---- asphalt and concrete. The retro reflectivity and durability of permanent marking materials among different surfaces, colors and groups were studied. Also the characteristics for temporary tapes, which include internal tape strength, adhesion, tackiness and dicernablity were compared and regressed. This correlation analysis is to see whether these ratings are correlated to each other. The results of this study can be used for estimating service lives of pavement marking materials. They also can be used by states to select appropriate pavement marking materials for different needs.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Economia
Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar como os retornos dos Green Funds se comparam aos retornos dos fundos convencionais entre os anos de 2005 e 2020 para os países da União Europeia. Além disso, testamos como o desempenho dos fundos verdes se correlacionam com o Business Cycle, subdividindo a análise entre períodos de expansão e recessão. As descobertas deste artigo são resumidas da seguinte forma: Nossos resultados demonstram fundos verdes e convencionais exibindo retornos negativos em relação ao World Market fator para os modelos de fator único e multifatorial. Para o European Market fator benchmark, encontramos fundos verdes apresentando desempenho positivo para ambos os modelos, e fundos convencionais apresentando uma performance negativa para o modelo CAPM e resultados positivos para o modelo multifactor. Os resultados dos fatores para fundos verdes indicam uma carga negativa em Momentum, HML e SMB, revelando uma maior exposição a empresas grandes e de valor. A análise por Business Cycle exibe fundos verdes proporcionando maiores retornos ajustados ao risco para os investidores durante os períodos de crise e resultados mistos para os períodos sem crise.
This paper aims to analyze how the risk-adjusted returns of green funds are compared to the risk-adjusted returns of conventional funds between the years 2005 and 2020 for the European Union countries. Additionally, we have tested how the performance of green funds correlates to the business cycle, subdividing their performance through expansionary and recessionary times. The findings of this paper are summarized as follows: Our regression results demonstrate green and conventional funds exhibiting negative abnormal adjusted-returns against the developed world market benchmark for the single-factor and multifactor models. For the European market benchmark, we find environmental mutual funds presenting a positive performance for both models and conventional funds displaying negative results for the single-factor model and positive results for the multifactor model. The factor loadings findings for green funds indicate a negative load on Momentum, HML and SMB, revealing a higher exposure to big and value companies. Subsampling per business cycle exhibits green mutual funds providing higher risk-adjusted returns to investors during crisis periods and mixed results for the non-crisis periods.

Abstract:
Economic liberalism has always been a very controversial issue in the content of development economics. The relation of neo-liberalism with economic development, as today&rsquo
s dominant discourse of economics, has been highly debated in the last decades. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate this relationship via comparing four countries&rsquo
development experiences
Argentina, China, Turkey and Poland, in between 1965-2005. In addition to that purpose, this thesis aims to analyze whether the experiences of the countries are unique or they display strong similarities with each other
and moreover to assess whether countries that follow the dominant development discourse are more successful than those that diverge from it. Development is defined on the basis of twenty-one indicators which consist of both purely quantitative ones and also others that possess qualitative elements. The comparison was concluded with the results that there was not a universal development path followed by the four countries
neo-liberal transition and reforms in the four countries have in fact brought about changes in some indicators and finally China has been performing better than the other countries by means of a number of indicators, as a country which has relatively been outside the dominant development trend in the world

Abstract:
The use of internet has increased over the past years. Many users may not have good intentions. Some people use the internet to gain access to the unauthorized information. Although absolute security of information is not possible for any network connected to the Internet however, firewalls make an important contribution to the network security. A firewall is a barrier placed between the network and the outside world to prevent the unwanted and potentially damaging intrusion of the network. This thesis compares the performance of Linux packet filtering firewalls, i.e. iptables and shorewall. The firewall performance testing helps in selecting the right firewall as needed. In addition, it highlights the strength and weakness of each firewall. Both firewalls were tested by using the identical parameters. During the experiments, recommended benchmarking methodology for firewall performance testing is taken into account as described in RFC 3511. The comparison process includes experiments which are performed by using different tools. To validate the effectiveness of firewalls, several performance metrics such as throughput, latency, connection establishment and teardown rate, HTTP transfer rate and system resource consumption are used. The experimental results indicate that the performance of Iptables firewall decreases as compared to shorewall in all the aspects taken into account. All the selected metrics show that large numbers of filtering rules have a negative impact on the performance of both firewalls. However, UDP throughput is not affected by the number of filtering rules. The experimental results also indicate that traffic sent with different packet sizes do not affect the performance of firewalls.

Abstract:
Context. Big Data and Cloud Computing nowadays require large amounts of storage that are accessible by many servers. To overcome the performance bottlenecks and single point of failure distributed storage systems came into force. So, our main aim in this thesis is evaluating the performance of these storage systems. A file coding technique is used that is the erasure coding which will help in data protection for the storage systems. Objectives. In this study, we investigate the performance evaluation of distributed storage system and understand the effect on performance for various patterns of I/O operations that is the read and write and also different measurement approaches for storage performance. Methods. The method is to use synthetic workload generator by streaming and transcoding video data as well as benchmark tool which generates the workload like SPECsfs2014 is used to evaluate the performance of distributed storage systems of GlusterFS and Compuverde which are file based storage. Results. In terms of throughput results, Gluster and Compuverde perform similar for both NFS and SMB server. The average latency results for both NFS and SMB shares indicate that Compuverde has lower latency. When comparing results of both Compuverde and Gluster, Compuverde delivers 100% IOPS with NFS server and Gluster delivers relatively near to the requested OP rate and with SMB server Gluster delivers 100% IOPS and Compuverde delivers more than the requested OP rate.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited
Complex government bureaus and their managers struggling to adapt to major changes find they are faced with alternative frameworks to improve organizational performance. Six major frameworks emerging in the U.S. since 1980, applicable to the public sector, and designed to enhance organizational change toward improved performance are reviewed and analyzed: Total Quality; 'Excellence;' Reinvention, including the National Performance Review; the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993; the Baldrige Award; and Reengineering. The purpose of the thesis is to provide guidelines to assist public managers in organizational change toward improved performance by analyzing the frameworks based on four criteria: workable in a political, pluralistic environment; realistic given constraints; comprehensive from a systems perspective; and capable of providing explicit measures of organizational performance

O presente trabalho pretende analisar a performance dos fundos de pensão brasileiros em comparação com os planos geradores de benefícios livres (PGBLs). Para tal, é preciso identificar e descrever suas características e as metodologias de avaliação de sua performance. No referencial teórico, descreve-se a evolução dos fundos de pensão no Brasil e seu cenário atual, destacando-se a legislação sobre seus investimentos. A pesquisa avalia a performance a partir da análise dos retornos, utilizando o teste não paramétrico de Kruskal-Wallis, e dos retornos ajustados ao risco, através da comparação de fundos pelos seus índices de Sharpe amostrais. Por fim, é analisada a persistência dos retornos ajustados ao risco para duas janelas de tempo a partir do coeficiente de correlação de Spearman. Com este estudo, pretende-se identificar se os resultados apresentados pelos fundos de pensão ao longo do tempo tem sido persistentes e se estes são diferentes dos apresentados pelos PGBLs.
The present work intends to analyze Brazilian pension funds in comparison with free benefits generating plans (PGBLs). To do so, it is necessary to identify and describe their characteristics and their performance evaluation methodologies. In the theoretical framework, it is described pension funds evolution and their present scenario, highlighting their investment legislation. The research evaluates performance from the return analysis, using Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test, and risk-adjusted return analysis, using a comparison of funds Sharpes index. Finally, persistence of risk-adjusted return is analyzed for two time periods, using Spearmans correlation coefficient. This study intends to identify if the results obtained by pension funds analysis have been persistent through time and if they are different from the PGBLs results.

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo comparar os índices de desempenho de média-variância com os critérios de dominância estocástica de primeira, segunda e terceira ordens para fundos de gerenciamento ativo presentes no mercado brasileiro. Foram analisados 84 fundos de ações entre maio de 1999 e abril de 2001. Para o cálculo da dominância estocástica foi criada uma função em Matlab que, a partir dos retornos dos fundos, compara-os entre si e retorna quais os fundos mais dominantes em relação aos outros. O que se concluiu é que os indivíduos que selecionam seus investimentos com base somente nos índices de média-variância podem tomar decisões que contrariam seus critérios de aversão ao risco e de aversão crescente ao risco. Igualmente, o desempenho de fundos de investimento medido apenas através dos critérios de dominância estocástica não significará necessariamente um maior excesso de retorno com relação ao risco corrido. Para se tomar uma decisão de investimento bem estruturada, o investidor deve considerar todos os momentos da distribuição dos retornos e realizar uma análise tanto por média-variância quanto por dominância estocástica.
The scope of this dissertation is the comparison between the meanvariance based performance measurers of active management Brazilian-based stock funds and stochastic dominance of first, second and third orders criteria. 84 funds were considered and the period studied goes from May 1999 to April 2001. For the stochastic dominance calculus a Matlab function was created so that, with the funds returns as inputs, it gives the most dominating funds in relation to the others. The conclusion of this study is that individuals that chose investments taking account solely mean-variance measurers can make decisions that goes against their criteria of risk aversion and absolute decreasing risk aversion. In the same way, investments funds performance measured only by stochastic dominance criteria will not lead necessarily to a highest reward-to- risk ratio. Regarding a well structured investment decision, investors should consider all moments of the distribution of returns and perform not only a mean- variance but also a stochastic dominance analysis.

Abstract:
Objectives. This systematic review evaluates the rehabilitation interventions for patients who have undergone (or will undergo) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the treatment of osteoarthritis. We addressed four Key Questions (KQs): comparisons of (1) rehabilitation prior (“prehabilitation”) to TKA versus no prehabilitation, (2) comparative effectiveness of different rehabilitation programs after TKA, (3) prehabilitation prior to THA versus no prehabilitation, (4) comparative effectiveness of different rehabilitation programs after THA. Data sources and review methods. We searched Medline®, PsycINFO®, Embase®, the Cochrane Register of Clinical Trials, CINAHL®, Scopus®, and ClinicalTrials.gov from Jan 1, 2005, to May 3, 2021, to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and adequately adjusted nonrandomized comparative studies (NRCSs). We evaluated clinical outcomes selected with input from a range of stakeholders. We assessed the risk of bias and evaluated the strength of evidence (SoE) using standard methods. Meta-analysis was not feasible, and evidence was synthesized and reported descriptively. The PROSPERO protocol registration number is CRD42020199102. Results. We found 78 RCTs and 5 adjusted NRCSs. Risk of bias was moderate to high for most studies. • KQ 1: Compared with no prehabilitation, prehabilitation prior to TKA may increase strength and reduce length of hospital stay (low SoE) but may lead to comparable results in pain, range of motion (ROM), and activities of daily living (ADL) (low SoE). There was no evidence of an increased risk of harms due to prehabilitation (low SoE). • KQ 2: Various rehabilitation interventions after TKA may lead to comparable improvements in pain, ROM, and ADL (low SoE). Rehabilitation in the acute phase (initiated within 2 weeks of surgery) may lead to increased strength (low SoE) but result in similar strength when delivered in the post-acute phase (low SoE). No studies reported evidence of risk of harms due to rehabilitation delivered in the acute period following TKA. Compared with various controls, post-acute rehabilitation may not increase the risk of harms (low SoE). • KQ 3: For all assessed outcomes, there is insufficient (or no) evidence addressing the comparison between prehabilitation and no prehabilitation prior to THA. • KQ 4: Various rehabilitation interventions after THA may lead to comparable improvements in pain, strength, ADL, and quality of life. There is some evidence of no increased risk of harms due to the intervention (low SoE). • There is insufficient evidence regarding which patients may benefit from (p)rehabilitation for all KQs and insufficient evidence regarding comparisons of different providers and different settings of (p)rehabilitation for all KQs. There is insufficient evidence on costs of (p)rehabilitation and no evidence on cost effectiveness for all KQs. Conclusion. Despite the large number of studies found, the evidence regarding various prehabilitation programs and comparisons of rehabilitation programs for TKA and THA is ultimately sparse. This is a result of the diversity of interventions studied and outcomes reported across studies. As a result, the evidence is largely insufficient or of low SoE. New high-quality research is needed, using standardized intervention terminology and core outcome sets, especially to allow network meta-analyses to explore the impact of intervention attributes on patient-reported, performance-based, and healthcare-utilization outcomes.

Abstract:
The problem of determining the investment priorities of the national economy development has been actuated. It has been argued that the formation of institutional preferences for activation of industry investment processes should be carried out taking into account the potential ability of each sectoral group enterprises to increase the added value. The scientific and methodical approach for sub-sectors investment attractiveness assessment has been formed on the example of the Ukrainian food industry. It has been recommended to use for this substantiated set of relative performance indexes which are duplicated in aggregate statistical state surveys based on the enterprise’s financial statements. It has been formed the recommendations for the investment priorities of food industry development in Ukraine which are based on the appropriate calculations made by the TOPSIS and CRITIC methods. Methods of economic-statistical and comparative analysis were used for structural and dynamic characteristics of the Ukraine industrial enterprises activities. Given that innovation processes should also cover small and medium-sized industrial enterprises, whose resource opportunities are mostly limited, it is proposed to expand them within the framework of a strategic partnership. Graphic modeling methods have been used to visualize the process of building the business structures resource potential on the basis of their strategic partnership. The influence of the motivational environment on the value of organizational relations within the partnership has been formalized.

Abstract:
The performance of supply chains used to be mainly the concern of academics and professionals who studied the potential efficiencies and risks associated with this aspect of globalisation. In 2021, major disruptions in this critical sector of our economies are making headlines and attracting the attention of policy makers around the world. Supply chain bottlenecks create shortages, fuel inflation, and undermine economic recovery. This report provides a transversal and multidisciplinary analysis of the challenges and opportunities regarding data interoperability and data sharing as they relate to the ‘Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Seaway Trade Corridor’ (GLSLTC)’s intermodal transportation and trade data strategy. The size and scope of this trade corridor are only matched by the complexity of its multimodal freight transportation systems and growing urbanization on both sides of the Canada-US border. This complexity is exacerbated by the lack of data interoperability and effective collaborations between the different stakeholders within the various jurisdictions and amongst them. Our analytical work relies on : 1) A review of the relevant documentation on the latest challenges to supply chains (SC), intermodal freight transport and international trade, identifying any databases that are to be used.; 2) A comparative review of selected relevant initiatives to give insights into the best practices in digital supply chains implemented in Canada, the United States, and the European Union.; 3) Interviews and discussions with experts from Transport Canada, Statistics Canada, the Canadian Centre on Transportation Data (CCTD) and Global Affairs Canada, as well as with CIRANO’s research community and four partner institutions to identify databases and data that they use in their research related to transportation and trade relevant data availabilities and methodologies as well as joint research opportunities. Its main findings can be summarized as follow: GLSLTC is characterized by its critical scale, complexity, and strategic impact as North America’s most vital trade corridor in the foreseeable further intensification of continental trade. 4% of Canadian GDP is attributed to the Transportation and Logistics sector (2018): $1 trillion of goods moved every year: Goods and services imports are equivalent to 33% of Canada’s GDP and goods and services exports equivalent to 32%. The transportation sector is a key contributor to the achievement of net-zero emissions commitment by 2050. All sectors of the Canadian economy are affected by global supply chain disruptions. Uncertainty and threats extend well beyond the COVID-19 Pandemic. “De-globalization” and increasing supply chains regionalization pressures are mounting. Innovation and thus economic performance—increasingly hinges on the quantity and quality of data. Data is transforming Canada’s economy/society and is now at the center of global trade “Transport data is becoming less available: Canada needs to make data a priority for a national transportation strategy.” * “How the Government of Canada collects, manages, and governs data—and how it accesses and shares data with other governments, sectors, and Canadians—must change.”

Dickman, Martin B., and Oded Yarden. Role of Phosphorylation in Fungal Spore Germination. United States Department of Agriculture, August 1993. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/1993.7568761.bard.

Abstract:
Spore germination is a common and fundamental event in fungal development and in many instances an essential phase of fungal infection and dissemination. Spore germination is also critical for hyperparasites to function as biocontrol agents as well as in fermentation proceses. Our common objective is to understand the mechanisms which regulated spore germination and identify factors involved in pathogenicity related prepenetration development. Our approach is to exploit the overall similarity among filamentous fungi using both a plant pathogen (Colletotricum trifolii) and a model system that is genetically sophisticated (Neurospora crassa). The simulataneous use of two organisms has the advantage of the available tools in Neurospora to rapidly advance the functional analysis of genes involved in spore germination and development of an economically important fungal phytopathogen. Towards this we have isolated a protein kinase gene from C. trifolii (TB3) that is maximally expressed during the first hour of conidial germination and prior to any visible gene tube formation. Based on sequence similarities with other organisms, this gene is likely to be involved in the proliferative response in the fungus. In addition, TB3 was able to functionally complement a N. crassa mutant (COT-1). Pharmacological studies indicated the importance of calmodulin in both germination and appressorium differentiation. Using an antisense vector from N. crassa, direct inhibition of calmodulin results in prevention of differentiation as well as pathogenicity. Both cAMP dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) like genes have been cloned from C. trifolii. Biochemical inhibition of PKA prevents germination; biochemical inhibitors of PKC prevents appressorium differentiation. In order to analyze reversible phosphorylation as a regulatory mechanism, some ser.thr dephosphorylative events have also been analyzed. Type 2A and Type 2B (calcineurin) phosphatases have been identified and structurally and functionally analyzed in N. crassa during this project. Both phosphatases are essential for hyphal growth and maintenance of proper hyphal architecture. In addition, a first novel-type (PPT/PP5-like) ser/thr phosphatase has been identified in a filamentous fungus. The highly collaborative project has improved our understanding of a fundamental process in fungi, and has identified targets which can be used to develop new approaches for control of fungal plant pathogens as well as improve the performance of beneficial fungi in the field and in industry. In addition, the feasibility of molecular technology transfer in comparative mycology has been demonstrated.

Abstract:
This rapid literature review of primary and grey sources found substantial evidence of the merits of donor support to Public Financial Management (PFM) initiatives but no specific evidence assessing donor support for external government audit, such as Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs). PFM reforms are established as being generally beneficial, assist in reducing or preventing corruption, increasing transparency and accountability, as well as improving service delivery quality, although the exact impacts are difficult to measure. Performance auditing has recently attracted more attention than traditional financial or compliance auditing and is seen by many sources to be conducive to improving accountability, although compliance and financial auditing are still viewed as the core of external audit. There is a substantial body of literature on donor-assisted PFM reforms but a paucity of focused study or discussion of donor support to external audit specifically. This evidence gap may be due to the cost of examining the narrow focus required on donor-assisted external audit specifically. This is compounded by the complexity of gathering a sufficiently large database through surveys combined with the lack of access (for individual academics) to official datasets across countries. Furthermore, measuring the impact of SAIs, for example, is difficult due to the variety of regulatory structures that exist, inhibiting comparative cross-country studies, which has resulted in a preference for in-depth analyses. Only multilateral institutions have conducted comprehensive cross-country surveys. However, the evidence does show that strengthened PFM systems and SAIs,1 if they are independent and fully resourced, increase transparency and accountability, helping to combat corruption, when governments are made answerable to their audit findings. The evidence on the effectiveness of SAIs (against corruption) is mixed and not as strong as for PFM reforms in general. The impact of PFM interventions in preventing or reducing corruption increases when reforms are sector-specific and complemented by societal awareness initiatives, citizen participation, and infomediary advocacy. This finding seems applicable to SAIs as the discourse is increasingly on improving comprehension of audit reports and wider dissemination to relevant stakeholders.
