Abstract:
The efficiency and the quality of higher education institution was assessed with the use of process approach. The efficiency of the higher education institution was determined on the basis of a combination of typical financial measures, taking into account costs incurred in the process of didactics and research, and expenditures (measured by current liquidity, stock turnover, receivables and liabilities ratios) necessary for schools to maintain financial liquidity. As measures of quality, related to statutory tasks of the university, the factors determining graduates’ situation on the labour market as well as patents obtained as a result of research conducted by university were adopted. Applying measures of quality enabled the researcher to obtain a more comprehensive dimension of the universities’ efficiency, while proving the fact that financial measures alone may distort the actual picture of efficiency or even lead to erroneous conclusions. It can be hypothesized that in the case of a higher education institution that pursues its statutory goals of providing knowledge to the public by conducting didactics and research, the concept of efficiency should combine financial and qualitative dimensions. The results obtained in the study using the DEA method allow the researcher to determine the situation of the university for the period covered by the study.

Abstract:
Over the years, there has been an exponential increase in the capabilities of networks, evolving from wired networks to wireless, and finally moving towards 4G networks. This evolution has brought forth many ways in which a user can access any service, particularly accessing the Internet. From emailing and social networking to file transferring, users are on a constant venture to exploit the advantages as much as possible. Predictions show that the demand will only increase with increasing number of mobile devices and subscribers. It becomes clearer that there will be rapid growth in the demand for more energy-efficient mobile devices. However, due to relatively slow increase in the battery technologies, the mobile users' expectations were not being met. This thesis highlights few interesting points on the energy consumptions by the most common Internet browsing tasks. It then presents the measurements of energy consumption on using various network connection technologies namely Ethernet, Wi-Fi and 3G to access the Internet. The obtained data from the experiments were then analyzed to arrive at an idea on the difference in energy consumptions across various browsing tasks and access technologies. Later, it involves a survey through which critical observations with respect to power efficiency and QoE are collected. The study concludes with a picture that would help users have an insight on the technologies that they may wish to choose to connect to the Internet. It helps manufacturers understand and consider the affect of an interface on the power consumption. It also helps researchers bring better solutions of designing the network interfaces. The aim would be to reduce the energy consumption by the product components rather than struggling to design powerful batteries to meet the increasing power demands from the network components. A wise choice of networking technologies is or what is may be required to gain better energy efficiency.

Abstract:
Ces dernières années, un grand nombre de travaux ont souligné la primauté des institutions dans les processus de croissance et de développement. Dans la lignée de cette littérature, cette thèse se propose d’étudier les conséquences macroéconomiques de deux phénomènes traduisant une qualité institutionnelle dégradée : la corruption et l’évasion fiscale. Ainsi, dans le chapitre 1, nous analysons comment la qualité institutionnelle affecte de manière non-linéaire la relation entre la corruption et la croissance. Nous identifions deux canaux à travers lesquels un double effet positif et négatif peut apparaître dans un régime de second best, conditionnellement au niveau de qualité des institutions, à savoir l’investissement privé et les dépenses publiques. Dans le chapitre 2, nous prolongeons l’analyse initiée au chapitre 1 pour étudier les interactions entre la corruption fiscale, le seigneuriage et l’inflation. Nous montrons que le seigneuriage est un instrument de politique monétaire qui permet de réduire la corruption et que la corruption augmente le taux de seigneuriage optimal. Le chapitre 2 suggère également l’existence de non-linéarités entre la corruption et l’inflation. Dans le prolongement du chapitre 2, le chapitre 3 confirme empiriquement l’existence d’une relation en U entre la corruption et l’inflation. Enfin, nous examinons dans le chapitre 4 comment l’évasion fiscale affecte la dynamique d’accumulation de la dette publique. Nous montrons que la relation se caractérise par une courbe en U dans les économies à forte croissance et qu’elle négative dans les économies à faible croissance. Nous montrons également qu’en fonction du comportement du gouvernement à l’égard de l’évasion fiscale, des situations d’instabilité agrégée peuvent apparaître<br>In recent years, a large number of works have stressed the crucial role of institutions in the process of growth and development. As a follow-up to this literature, this thesis studies the macroeconomics of two phenomena characteristic of a poor institutional quality: corruption and tax evasion. Thus, in Chapter 1, we analyze how institutional quality nonlinearly affects the relation between corruption and growth. We identify two channels, namely private investment and public spending, through which a dual effect of corruption can appear in a second best regime, conditional on institutional quality. In Chapter 2, we pursue the analysis initiated in Chapter 1 to study the interactions between fiscal corruption, seigniorage and inflation. We show that seigniorage is a monetary policy instrument that allows reducing the aggregate level of corruption and that corruption increases the optimal seigniorage rate. Chapter 2 also suggests the existence of nonlinearities in the corruption-inflation nexus. Chapter 3 empirically confirms the existence of a U-shaped relation between corruption and inflation. Finally, we examine in Chapter 4 how tax evasion affects the dynamics of public debt accumulation. We show that the relation between tax evasion and public debt is characterized by a U-shaped curve in high-growth economies and is negative in low-growth economies. We also show that aggregate instability may appear in some circumstances, depending on the behavior of the government towards tax evasion

Abstract:
Propelled by the explosive increases in mobile data traffic volume, existing wireless technologies are stretched to their capacity limits. There is a tremendous need for an expansion in system capacity and an improvement on energy efficiency. In addition, wireless network will support more and more multimedia services and applications, in which user experience has been always an important factor in evaluating the overall network performance. In order to keep pace with this explosion of data traffic and to meet the emerging quality of experience needs, wireless heterogeneous networks have been introduced as a promising network architecture evolution of the traditional cellular network. In this dissertation, we explore video quality-aware spectrum efficiency and energy efficiency in wireless heterogeneous networks|the potentials and the associated technical challenges. In particular, aiming to significantly enhance spectrum efficiency, we need to tackle the interference issue, which is exacerbated in heterogeneous network due to ultra dense node deployment as well as heterogeneity nature of various nodes. Specifically, werst study an optimal intra-cell inter-tier cooperation to mitigate interference between high power nodes and low power nodes. Together with cooperation, optimal mobile association and resource allocation schemes are also intensively investigated in heterogeneous network to achieve system load balancing so that bandwidth at high power and low power nodes can be utilized in the optimal way. The proposed scheme can greatly alleviate inter-tier interference and significantly increase overall system spectrum efficiency in a heterogeneous network. We then further apply advanced algorithms such as precoding, and non-orthogonal multiple access into intra-cell inter-tier cooperation so that the overall system spectrum efficiency and user experience are even more improved. When supporting a video type application in such a heterogeneous network, considering only spectrum efficiency is far from enough as video application is bandwidth consuming, battery consuming, and quality demanding. We develop a video quality-aware spectrum and energy efficiency resource allocation scheme in a wireless heterogeneous network and propose novel performance metrics to establish fundamental relationships among spectrum efficiency, energy efficiency, and quality of experience. Extensive simulations are conducted to evaluate the trade-o performance among three performance metrics.

Abstract:
Las instituciones de educación superior desempeñan un papel importante en la economía de cualquier región o país, ya que contribuyen a la formación de capital humano y nuevo conocimiento; así como al emprendimiento. Debido al aumento de la competencia, las universidades están bajo presión constante para mejorar su desempeño. En este sentido, la literatura ha señalado que la calidad, productividad y orientación al cliente deben ser considerados como elementos clave para lograr un desempeño superior. Sin embargo, la evaluación de estos conceptos en el contexto de la educación superior es compleja. El propósito de esta tesis es examinar los principales factores determinantes de la calidad, la eficiencia y la orientación al cliente en la enseñanza universitaria; así como la posible relación entre estos conceptos. Los objetivos específicos de esta investigación son: examinar el impacto de los atributos de calidad y reputación en la evaluación dinámica de la productividad en una muestra de universidades en Latinoamérica (Capítulo 2); examinar la naturaleza y determinantes de las valoraciones que realizan los alumnos sobre el desempeño del profesor (Capítulo 3); y examinar la influencia de la orientación al alumno-cliente y otras variables personales en la evaluación del desempeño de los profesores (Capítulo 4). Nuestros hallazgos confirman la idea de que se obtienen resultados más fiables en la medición de la productividad de las universidades mediante la agrupación de las mismas en subconjuntos más homogéneos y que los atributos de calidad y reputación tienen un impacto en el análisis de la productividad. Los resultados también indican que la evaluación del profesorado por parte de los alumnos, es un fenómeno complejo y depende de factores relacionados con el perfil de profesores, alumnos y cursos. Los alumnos evalúan principalmente la pericia, la actitud y el comportamiento de los profesores. Los hallazgos también sugieren que la orientación al alumno-cliente mejora el desempeño de los profesores. Esta tesis integra literatura sobre marketing de servicios, administración de operaciones y educación superior, con el fin de proporcionar una visión más amplia y profunda en la evaluación del desempeño educativo. Desde un punto de vista de gestión, esta investigación puede ayudar a los administradores a generar una ventaja competitiva en las instituciones de educación superior.<br>Higher education institutions play an important role in the economy of any region or country as they contribute to the formation of human capital, new knowledge and entrepreneurship. Due to increased competition, universities are under constant pressure to improve their performance. In this vein, literature has long indicated that quality, productivity and customer orientation should be considered as key elements in order to achieve superior performance. However, assessing these concepts in the context of higher education is complex. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the determinants of quality, efficiency and customer orientation in higher education and the possible relationship between these concepts. Thus, the specific objectives of this research are the following: to examine the impact of attributes of quality and reputation on the dynamic evolution of productivity in a sample of Latin American universities (Chapter 2); to examine the nature and determinants of student evaluations of teaching performance (Chapter 3); and to examine the influence of the student-customer orientation and other personal variables on the assessment of university teachers’ performance (Chapter 4). Our findings reaffirm the idea that more reliable results in productivity measurement are sought by grouping universities into more homogeneous subsets of institutions. The results also indicate that attributes of quality and reputation have an impact on productivity analysis. Findings also show that student evaluation of teaching is a complex phenomenon that depends on factors related to teacher, student and course profiles. Students basically assess the expertise, attitude and behavior of teachers. Findings also suggest that student-customer orientation enhances teachers’ performance. This thesis integrates the literature on services marketing, operations management and higher education in order to provide a wider and deeper insight into the assessment of educational performance. From a practical perspective, this research may help managers to create a competitive advantage in higher education institutions.

Thesis: S.B., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, 2017.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 54-55).<br>Thermalization losses drastically reduce the efficiency of silicon solar cells. In an age where we need sustainable energy production more than ever, silicon is the best material to target due to its high stake in the sustainable energy market. An organic-inorganic solar cell hybrid of tetracene-covered silicon can reduce thermalization losses through the downconversion process of using a high energy photon to generate two lower energy electron-hole pairs. This occurs through the singlet-triplet fission process that excitons can undertake in tetracene. The effect of the interface quality between tetracene and silicon on successful triplet energy transfer is investigated. RFPCD (Radio Frequency Photoconductive Decay) is used to measure the bulk lifetime as well as the surface recombination lifetime of minority carriers in both n- and p-type Silicon of various doping concentrations. The surface recombination velocity was calculated from the measurement of surface recombination lifetime and analyzed after the silicon underwent RCA clean, RCA clean followed by an HF dip, tungsten nitride ALD, and tetracene evaporation using various combinations of these steps to form appropriate process flows. It was found that the highest surface quality was obtained by the lowest doped wafers. Additionally, similar doping levels were affected similarly by the various processing steps outlined above while the type of dopant did not seem to dictate the surface quality response. Triplet energy transfer was not fully confirmed from tetracene to silicon, but the surface quality turned out to be a very important indication for whether or not this energy transfer could occur.<br>by Eveline Postelnicu.<br>S.B.

Abstract:
Context: Now a day’s end users are using different types of computer applications like web browsers, data processing tools like MS office, notepad etc., to do their day-to-day works. In the real world scenario, the usage of Open Source Software (OSS) products by both industrial people and end users are gradually increasing. The success of any OSS products depends on its quality standards. ‘Efficiency’ is one of the key quality factor, which portray the standards of product and it is observed that this factor is given little importance during its development. Therefore our research context lies within evaluating the efficiency quality attribute in OSS web browsers. Objectives: As discussed earlier the context of this research lies in evaluating the efficiency of OSS web browsers, the initial objective was to identify the available efficiency measures from the current literature and observe which type of measures are suitable for web browsers. Then our next objective is to compute values for the identified efficiency measures by considering a set of predefined web browsers from all the categories. Later we proposed Efficiency Baseline Criteria (EBC) and based on this criterion and experiment results obtained, the efficiency of OSS web browsers had been evaluated. Therefore the main objective of conducting this research is to formulate EBC guidelines, which can be later used by OSS developers to test their web browsers and ensure that all the quality standards are strictly adhered during the development of OSS products. Methods: Initially Literature Review (LR) was conducted in order to identify all the related efficiency quality attributes and also observe the sub-attribute functionalities, that are useful while measuring efficiency values of web browsers. Methods and procedures which are discussed in this LR are used as input for identifying efficiency measures that are related to web browsers. Later an experiment was performed in order to calculate efficiency values for CSS &amp; proprietary set of web browsers (i.e. Case A) and OSS web browsers (i.e. Case B) by using different tools and procedures. Authors themselves had calculated efficiency values for both Case A and Case B web browsers. Based on the results of Case A web browsers, EBC was proposed and finally an statistical analysis (i.e. Mann Whitney U-test) is performed in order to evaluate the hypothesis which was formulated in experiment section. Results: From the LR study, it is observed that efficiency quality attribute is classified into two main categories (i.e. Time Behavior and Resource Utilization). Further under the category of Time behavior a total of 3 attributes were identified (i.e. Response time, Throughput and Turnaround time). From the results of LR, we had also observed the measuring process of each attribute for different web browsers. Later an experiment was performed on two different sets of web browsers (i.e. Case A and Case B web browsers). Based on the LR results, only 3 efficiency attributes (i.e. response time, memory utilization and throughput) were identified which are more suitable to the case of web browsers. These 3 efficiency attributes are further classified into 10 sub-categories. Efficiency values are calculated to both Case A and B for these 10 identified scenarios. Later from Case A results EBC values are generated. Finally hypothesis testing was done by initially performing K-S test and results suggest choosing non-parametric test (i.e. Mann Whitney U-test). Later Mann Whitney U-test was performed for all the scenarios and the normalized Z scores are more than 1.96, further suggested rejecting null hypothesis for all the 10 scenarios. Also EBC values are compared with Case B results and these also suggest us that efficiency standard of OSS web browsers are not equivalent to Case A web browsers. Conclusions: Based on quantitative results, we conclude that efficiency standards of OSS web browsers are not equivalent, when compared to Case A web browsers and the efficiency standards are not adhered during development process. Hence OSS developers should focus on implementing efficiency standards during the development stages itself in order to increase the quality of the end products. The major contribution from the two researchers to this area of research is “Efficiency Baseline Criteria”. The proposed EBC values are useful for OSS developers to test the efficiency standards of their web browser and also help them to analyze their shortcomings. As a result appropriate preventive measures can be planned in advance.<br>+91 - 9491754620

Abstract:
Abstract. The use of multifaceted quality analyses contributes to increasing the efficiency of production processes and quality control as part of maintaining competitiveness. The aim of the study was to identify an integrally configured method for analysing the effectiveness of control points in the context of their ranking in terms of given variables. Verification of the model was carried out against the production process of an aluminium casting. The obtained ranking of the detection methods indicated the MT method as the most effective, which was influenced by the significant detection of critical non-conformities. The study observed little difference between the performance parameters of visual inspection and endoscopic testing, which is largely due to the detection of non-conformities of lower significance and the relatively low cost of testing. Further work will relate to the implementation of the model against other processes carried out in the company.

Abstract:
This article discusses the modern concept of eco-efficiency, based on the methods of using resources for the development of an organization in terms of economic and environmental indicators through more efficient use of resources and reducing pollution. Its differences from the traditional principles of environmental efficiency are determined. Mathematical models for assessing the eco-efficiency of industrial production are proposed. The applicability of the developments is shown on the example of a microelectronics enterprise. The presented models make it possible to measure the eco-efficiency indicator, taking into account the use of all eco-parameters affecting the change in the efficient use of resources and reducing the level of pollution.

Abstract:
Poorer countries have a much smaller public sector and correspondingly a smaller tax burden than richer countries, yet, their economic performance has not been necessarily better. Using a simple model, this paper suggests that the growth and welfare effects of taxation are mediated through institutional quality; consequently, optimal tax levels increase with improved institutional quality. The paper then employs firm-level perceptions on the quality of public services and on the tax burden to test some of the model¿s predictions. Consistent with these predictions, the paper finds that a higher level of institutional quality bolsters positive perceptions of the quality of public services while at the same time moderating the view of taxes as an obstacle to growth.

Abstract:
Hospitals are a critical component of health systems. This technical note proposes a policy-oriented framework for measuring hospital performance and provides a short list of indicators related to the efficiency and quality of hospital care in Latin America and the Caribbean. The note draws on international and country-specific experiences, including those of Brazil, Mexico, the OECD, the United Kingdoms National Health Service, and the United Statess Medicare program. The proposed indicators are feasible and relevant, and the list can be used immediately to inform hospital performance measurement efforts in the region.

Abstract:
It is generally accepted that institutions are important for economic development. In this work, we analyse how the quality of regional institutions impacts performance of Italian electricity distribution utilities and show that utilities in regions with better government effectiveness, responsiveness towards citizens, control of corruption, and rule of law, also tend to be more cost efficient. The results suggest that national regulators should take regional institutional diversity into account in incentive regulation and efficiency benchmarking of utilities.
