Full textNetwork science and its many applications provide insight into several genres, including biological, neural, logistical and technical problems. The study of complex networks extends to the Internet as well, merging graph theoretical concepts with those of computer science in an effort to perform Internet topology measurements, ultimately contributing to inferred Internet mapping. In this research, we examine whether the time of day is a factor when measuring Internet topology. In doing so, we employ graph measures, statistical measures, and complex network measures to compare graphs inferred from probes of the Internet via network monitors. Using comparisons of these measures, we did not find indication that time was a factor for the seven probing cycles examined in this study.

Recent scientific progress has left virtually no question that nanotechnology will become a tremendous and significant part of worldwide culture. Nanotechnology is expected to become an active part of our daily interactions with people, machines, and the environment. This vision has been set forth by someone who many consider the founder of nanotechnology, Dr. Richard Feynman. In his 1959 lecture, "There is room at the bottom", Dr. Feynman challenged scientists and researchers to discover materials and devices that could be fabricated at the atomic/molecular scale. Since Dr. Feynman's speech a significant amount of progress and numerous investments have been made securing a future for nanotechnology. The question that remains is not if nanotechnology will develop into an industry, but when might it evolve and deliver on the promises so intrepidly set forth by researchers, corporations, and investors. The when question is debated many times over in today's popular press. For certain, no one is exactly sure what when really means and for what part of this industry. What this thesis is most interested in is the how. How will nanotechnology evolve? What factors will determine the industry structure that will influence the development of this industry? How large can we expect this industry to grow? What will be the key drivers for growth? How will different members of this industry facilitate the development of this science? In the last fifty years alone, the world has witnessed the remarkable formation of two very large, socially influential, and global industries: Semiconductors and Biotechnology. These industries have many similarities and dissimilarities to nanotechnology. By studying the key factors and developments in these industries different lessons and patterns can be extrapolated which may help answer some of the burning questions surrounding nanotechnology industry evolution. The results of this analysis do indeed conclude that there are many similarities between biotechnology and semiconductors to the current nanotechnology evolution. These similarities are not only in the underlying technology, but also in funding, intellectual property development, and firm composition. Building upon this foundation, the future potential nanotechnology industry size, as well as the number of firms, and critical growth factors have been identified and articulated.

Full textThe main objective of this thesis is to make welfare comparisons involving different population sizes. This is relevant for two reasons. First, the evaluation of public policies often implies comparisons of situations where the number of individuals differs from one situation to another. Second, the theoretical foundations of social evaluation provide little measurement guidance on how changes in population size and population distribution can be socially evaluated. After a literature review on population problems and particularly questions related to population sizes and social well-being, and after discussing how variable populations are socially evaluated, we use critical-level generalized utilitarianism as a social evaluation function. This function exhibits ethically desirable foundations and is shown to be more convenient for comparing well-being between variable populations. But it requires a value of the critical level, a key parameter in this approach. We propose a dominance framework based on critical-level generalized utilitarianism. We show how this dominance is related to stochastic poverty dominance. This is presented in the first essay. In the second essay, we develop a theoretical, normative and statistical framework to estimate some robust lower and upper bounds of critical levels within which population distributions can be ordered. We illustrate our theoretical results by using real data from Canada’s household surveys. We extend the applications to national, regional and world scales. The results indicate that the value of humanity can be persuasively shown to have increased globally between 1990 and 2005, but not so for many of the world’s regions. This is done in the third essay.
