Abstract:
La crescente necessità di detector ad alto rate nei moderni esperimenti di Fisica delle Alte Energie genera molte sfide tecnologiche. In particolare, gli sviluppi nella tecnologia dei detector ha aumentato i requisiti sui sistemi di readout e stimolato la ricerca su sistemi integrati di readout. I circuiti integrati CMOS sono largamente diffusi e sono una scelta comune per i chip di readout. In questa tesi vengono analizzati alcune delle maggiorni criticità nel readout di detectors mentre vengono riportati nuovi risultati sperimentali riguardanti prototipi esistenti.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the pricing relationship between the FTSE 100 Stock Index and the FTSE 100 Stock Index futures market. We develop and apply a framework in which it is possible to evaluate whether or not markets can be said to function effectively and efficiently. The framework is applied to both the daily and intra-daily pricing relationship between the aforementioned markets. In order to analyse the pricing relationship within days, we develop a new method to remove the effects of nonsynchronous trading from the FTSE 100 Index. We find that on a daily basis the markets generally func

Automatic design modification is used to introduce FTFS characteristics into a design. A taxonomy of FTFS techniques is introduced and is used to identify a number of features which an "automatic design for FTFS" system should exhibit. A silicon compilation system, Chip Churn 2 (CC2), has been implemented and has been used to demonstrate the feasibility of automatic design of FTFS systems.

Includes abstract.<br>Includes bibliographical references.<br>This paper is an investigation into the performance of GARCH-based VaR models on the South African FTSE/JSE Top 40 Index. Specifically, this paper investigates whether stability has returned to the VaR measure following its poor performance during the latest global financial crisis (2007). GARCH models are used in both an analytic and historical approach for modeling 1%, 2.5% and 5% daily VaR for a three year backtest period (2010-2012). Four distributions are used: the normal, generalised error, t-distribution and the skewed t-dist

Abstract:
Few studies have examined the impact of portfolio concentration upon the realised volatility of stock index portfolios, such as the FTSE 100. Instead, previous research has focused upon diversification across industries, across geographic regions and across different firms. The present study addresses this imbalance by calculating the daily time series of four concentration metrics for the FTSE 100 Index over the period from January 1984 through March 2003. In addition, the value weighted variance covariance matrix (VCM) of daily FTSE 100 Index constituent returns is decomposed into four sub-c

Abstract:
Derivatives have a large and significant role on the financial markets today and the popularity of options has increased. This has also increased the demand of finding a suitable option pricing model, since the ground-breaking model developed by Black &amp; Scholes (1973) have poor pricing performance. Practitioners and academics have over the years developed different models with the assumption of non-constant volatility, without reaching any conclusions regarding which model is more suitable to use. This thesis examines four different models, the first model is the Practitioners Black &amp;

This study investigates FTSE/JSE All Share index monthly and daily equity returns for evidence of the January and TY effect. Four different measures of monthly return are analysed for the 1995-2006 period, whilst daily returns are analysed during the 1995-2005 period. In addition to this, analysis is conducted on monthly Fama-MacBeth risk premium estimates tor the FTSE/JSE All Share Index. Descriptive statistics are first analysed, followed by ANOV A or Kruskai-Wallis tests, the paired t-test and finally dummy variable regression analysis in investigating the seasonality of FTSE/JSE All Share

Abstract:
This study intensely investigated Korean university students' attitudes to a Face-to-Face Interview (FTFI) and a Computer Administered Oral Test (CAOT) first and then their performance on the tests, and finally their effects on performance on the two tests in a Korean university context. The 42 university students participating in the study took part in both the FTFI and the CAOT. After these tests, they completed a questionnaire about their attitudes towards and their perceptions of the tests. Ten of them were interviewed after the questionnaire to understand more deeply their attitudes and p

Abstract:
This study examines the role of board social and human capital in assessing the market value of firms in the UK context. As the world economy has shifted from manufacturing to service and knowledge-based economies, attributes such as knowledge, expertise, skills, ability and reputation are increasingly fundamental to the success of business enterprises. There is a growing consensus that these attributes are an increasingly valuable form of capital, asset or resource, despite their intangibility. In accounting, there are a number of problems arising from the accountability of non-physical, non-

In this way, the execution of digital CMOS circuits is more and more welcomed than that of analog CMOS circuits. In fact, basically, analog CMOS circuits shares the same space with digital CMOS circuits for the following reasons: analog which takes the most important role; the chip area; and the performance of circuits.

A simple and efficient simulation circuit was developed. Three physical FTFN circuits were illustrated and simulated to demonstrate the feasibility of the developed circuit. When this circuit was employed, the simulation results showed that it was able to sense the leakage current of the terminal x of the FTFN, and then the accuracy of the current response of the FTFN circuit has been improved.
