Pełny tekst źródłaCuando se realiza un estudio científico, el análisis hace énfasis sobre las variables recogidas para responder a las preguntas que se quieren hallar durante el mismo estudio. Sin embargo en muchos análisis se suele recoger más variables, como por ejemplo variables socio demográfico: sexo, status social, edad. Estas variables son conocidas como variables de segmentación, ya que pueden ser útiles en la identificación de posibles fuentes de heterogeneidad. Analizar la heterogeneidad quiere decir realizar distintas análisis para distintos colectivos homogéneos definidos a partir de las variables de segmentación. Muchas veces, si hay algún conocimiento previo, esta heterogeneidad puede ser controlada mediante la definición de segmentos a priori. Sin embargo no siempre se dispone de conocimiento suficiente para definir a priori los grupos. Por otro lado muchas variables de segmentación podrían ser disponibles para analizar la heterogeneidad de acuerdo con un apropiado algoritmo. Un algoritmo desarrollado con este objetivo fue PATHMOX, propuesto por Gastón Sanchez en 2009. Esta técnica, utilizando particiones recursivas, produce un árbol de segmentación con distintos modelos asociados a cada nodo. Para cada nodo, PATHMOX busca entre todas las variables de segmentación aquella que produce una diferencia máxima entre los modelos de los nodos hijos. Tomando como punto de partida el trabajo de Gastón Sanchez esta tesis se propone: 1. Extender PATHMOX para identificar los constructos responsables de la diferencias. PATHMOX nos permite detectar distintos modelos en un data-set sin identificar grupos a priori. Sin embargo, PATHMOX es un criterio global. Pera identificar las distintas ecuaciones y coeficientes responsables de las particiones, introduciremos los test F-block y F-coefficient. 2. Extender PATHMOX para solucionar el problema de la invariancia. En el contexto del PLS-PM (Partial Least Squares Path Modeling), PATHMOX funciona fijando las relaciones causales entre las variables latentes y el objetivo es identificar modelos con coeficientes path lo más posible distintos sin poner ninguna restricción sobre el modelo de medida. Por lo tanto, cada vez que una diferencia significativa es identificada, y dos nodos hijos vienen definidos, las relaciones causales entre las variables latentes son las mismas en ambos modelos "hijos", pero la estimación de cada variable latente se recalcula y no podemos estar seguros de comparar el comportamiento de dos individuos distintos que pertenecen a dos nodos diferentes. Para resolver este problema propondremos un test de invariancia basado en la distribución X^2, donde el objetivo del test es verificar si los modelos de cada nodo terminales se puede considerar igual o no entre ellos. 3. Extender PATHMOX para superar la hipótesis paramétrica del F-test. Una crítica a PATHMOX, aplicadas en el contexto del PLS-PM, es que el algoritmo utiliza una prueba paramétrica, basada en la hipótesis de que los residuos tienen una distribución normal, para comparar dos modelos estructurales. Para superar este límite, extenderemos el test para comparar dos regresiones robustas LAD en el contexto del PLS. 4. La generalización del algoritmo PATHMOX a cualquier tipo de metodología. El algoritmo PATHMOX ha sido propuesto para analizar la heterogeneidad en el contexto PLS-PM. Sin embargo, este algoritmo se puede aplicar a muchos otros tipos de metodologías de acuerdo con un apropiado criterio de partición. Para generalizar PATHMOX consideraremos tres escenarios distintos: modelos de regresión (modelos OLS, LAD, GLM) y el análisis en componentes principales. 5. Implementar la metodología, utilizando el software R como librería específica.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe first model "Equilibrium in Continuous Space under Decentralized Production" addresses the issue of the impact of differences across locations in exogeneous productivity on the structure of equilibrium prices, production and trade. The goal is to describe the general equilibrium in a spatially decentralized economy, when production, consumption and markets are distributed in continuous space and transportation costs are essentially linear. It is shown that an autarky equilibrium can exist only if transport costs are high enough. In the general case, the general equilibrium in this model includes some endogeneously determined trade areas, with flows of goods across space, and autarky areas where production and consumption activities take place only at the same point. An analytical solution in explicit functions is obtained; it contains equilibrium prices, labor supply and flows of goods as functions of the spatial variable. The model can be applied to a set of practical questions in regional economics. In particular, it is able to describe persistent price differentials across regions and non-local consequences of road construction and transportation cost shocks for the economy. The differences across locations in population density may have either historical or economic reasons.
The second model "Hotelling's Revival" extends a well-known research of H.Hotelling (1929) to the two-dimensional case with spatially heterogeneous demand density, preserving the rest of his classical assumptions. It is shown that the problem of demand discontinuity in the one-dimensional model, which was discovered by d'Aspremont, Gabszewich and Thisse (1979), disappears in this case. This also holds for any bounded distribution of consumers on any compact set on a plane, which can describe real geographical situations. Demand continuity still holds for any transport costs, strictly increasing in distance and not necessarily linear. Although this is sufficient for the existence of Nash equilibrium in mixed strategies, in pure strategies it exists only for some subset of cases. Examples of both existence and non-existence are constructed, and for some family of densities the separation point between the two cases is found.
The third model addresses locational choice of heterogeneous consumers, when land is also heterogeneous in quality. It is based on two articles. The first, "Dacha Pricing", is presented in chapter 4 and studies the problem of locational rent in a city-neighbourhood when utility includes both the impact of transport costs and time for transportation. For the case of identical agents the problem is solved explicitly and comparative statics with respect to exogeneous changes in transport cost and speed is studied. For the case of agents who are heterogeneous with respect to their income, a solution is also obtained. The model explains some evidence about dacha pricing in Russia and its dynamics during the transition period. The second article related to this model is "Location and Land Size Choice by Heterogeneous Agents". It generalizes the first one and form a separate chapter 5. A new approach about the general equilibrium allocation of heterogeneous divisible good (like land) among a continuum of heterogeneous consumers is proposed. The model is based on continuity of primitives which allow not only to finding a general equilibrium solution in a class of continuous functions, but also to treat the solution to a continuous problem as the limit of the corresponding sequence of discrete problems. This solves one of Berliant's paradoxes, related to spatial economics. The multiplicity of equilibria is shown to take place.

This paper builds a model incorporating firm heterogeneity into a lobbying setup `a la Grossman and Helpman (1994), in a monopolistic competitive environment. We obtain that increased sectorial dispersion cause a fall in equilibrium tariff provided that the exporter’s cutoff is above the mean of the distribution. Also, higher average productivity brings about a fall in the equilibrium tariff, whereas an increase in export costs cause an increase in the tariff. JEL Classification codes: D43, D7, F12, F13, L11

Although the treatment of cancer is a major focus of biomedical research, many cancers are extremely hard to treat. Tumors likely resist treatment because each tumor is heterogeneous, and can evolve. Although tumor evolution has long been appreciated, it remains incompletely understood. In this thesis, I will explore two questions related to cancer heterogeneity and evolution: how evolution can affect plastic phenotypes, and the role of purifying selection in cancer evolution. Different cell states or phenotypes have been observed within tumors, and they are associated with treatment resistance and metastasis. The observation that these phenotypes are plastic leads to a conundrum: how can selection act on such an unstable phenotype? We determined that plasticity, in the form of cell state bias, varies widely across clones in a tumor. These different biases are heritable, with each cell faithfully passing its differentiation bias to its daughters. Simulations revealed that this makes plasticity an evolvable phenotype--- in a changing environment, an optimal state bias will be selected. The second question explored in this thesis is the role of purifying selection in cancer evolution. It is widely thought that tumor evolution is dominated by positive selection. We posited that, as in the evolution of species, purifying selection would prevent the fixation of deleterious mutations in tumors. Through computational analysis of tumor genomes, we determined that purifying selection acts to remove deleterious mutations. Genes under purifying selection must be important to tumors in vivo, as only mutations in these genes would be problematic. Consistent with this prediction, most genes under purifying selection in tumors were essential in cancer cell lines. To find genes essential to tumors but not generally cell-essential, we developed a method to find genes under increased purifying selection in one tumor type over others. This revealed a number of pathways under selection in melanomas, but not other tumor types, such as DNA damage pathways. By seeking genes important to tumors, but not generally essential, our analysis revealed potential therapeutic targets. Purifying selection offers an unprecedented view into which genes are essential to tumors in vivo, a finding predominantly inaccessible through experimentation.

Esta questão torna-se relevante com a dificuldade da Europa em competir com a concorrência asiática enquanto, dentro da união, os novos membros aparentam ser incapazes de convergir na direção da vanguarda em inovação. Nós analisamos os dados da participação no “SME instrument” (um canal exclusivo a PMEs – Pequenas e médias empresas) para expor os padrões de participação dos países e as tendências atuais. Os resultados corroboram firmemente a hipótese de não-convergência entre EU15 e EU13, no entanto, apesar disto, existem casos discordantes, como a Estónia e a Eslovénia, casos aqui desenvolvidos em dois casos de estudos. Novas questões também emergiram como o aparecimento de uma periferia Sul na Europa e indicadores de apatia nos países do ‘coração’ europeu. Concluímos com uma serie de recomendações de politicas para reverter o atual cenário e trazer convergência para a excelência, reforçando assim o papel da Europa no sistema de I&D e Inovação mundial.

The regulation of entry and aggregate productivity Euro Area economies have lower firm turnover rates, lower total factor and labor productivity, and higher capital intensity than the Unites States. I argue that differences in entry cost contribute to this pattern by affecting firms' technology choice. Introducing technology choice into a standard heterogeneous firm model, small differences in administrative entry cost suffice to explain 10-20% of differences in total factor productivity and the capital-output ratio. The productivity difference arises because higher equilibrium capital intensity acts as an entry barrier and protects low-productivity incumbents. Both firm heterogeneity and technology choice are crucial for strengthening results compared to previous studies. 2 Employment protection, firm selection, and growth This paper analyzes the effect of ring costs on aggregate productivity growth. For this purpose, a model of endogenous growth through selection and imitation is developed. It is consistent with recent evidence on firm dynamics and on the importance of reallocation for productivity growth. In the model, growth is driven by selection among heterogeneous incumbent firms, and is sustained as entrants imitate the best incumbents. In this framework, firing costs not only induce misallocation of labor, but also affect growth by affecting firms' exit decisions. Importantly, charging firing costs only to continuing firms raises growth by promoting selection. Also charging them to exiting firms is akin to an exit tax, hampers selection, and reduces growth { by 0.1 percentage points in a calibrated version of the model. With job turnover very similar in the two settings, this implies that the treatment of exiting firms matters for welfare. In addition, the impact on growth rates is larger in sectors where firms face larger idiosyncratic shocks, as in services. This fits evidence that recent EU-US growth rate differences are largest in these sectors and implies that firing costs can play a role here. A brief empirical analysis of the impact of firing costs on the size of exiting firms supports the model's conclusions. 3 The labor market, the decision to become an entrepreneur, and the firm size distribution Why do some people become entrepreneurs, and how do labor markets affect this choice? This paper addresses this question using a matching model with occupational choice and heterogeneity in both ability as a worker and ex ante unknown productivity of firm start-ups. Key effects are the following: labor market conditions affect incentives to start firms differently for workers and the unemployed, with repercussions on aggregate productivity; and they affect the expected value of firm creation due to the possibility of failure. These effects go beyond the standard impact of labor market conditions on firms' employment policy and value. The correlation of observed productive ability and potential productivity significantly shapes the firm size distribution, suggesting that the empirical correlation is positive but far from perfect. Finally, the model allows for a comparatively flexible lower tail of the firm size distribution and can explain the existence and persistence of small, lowproductivity firms with low profits: their owners have low outside options in the labor market.

Pełny tekst źródłaMoore's Law has continued for almost half of a century and is not expected to stop for at least another decade, and perhaps much longer. Moore observed a trend in the process technology advances. So, the number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit has increased exponentially, doubling approximately every two years. Nevertheless, having more available transistors can not be always directly translated into having more performance.
The complexity of state-of-the-art software has reached heights unthinkable in prior ages, both in terms of the amount of computation and the complexity involved. If we deeply analyze this complexity in software we would realize that software is comprised of smaller execution processes that, although maintaining certain spatial/temporal locality, imply an inherently heterogeneous behavior. That is, during execution time the hardware executes very different portions of software, with huge differences in terms of behavior and hardware requirements. This heterogeneity in the behaviour of the software is not specific of the latest videogame, but it is inherent to software programming itself, since the very beginning of Algorithmics.
In this PhD dissertation we deeply analyze the inherent heterogeneity present in software behavior. We identify the main issues and sources of this heterogeneity, that hamper most of the state-of-the-art processor designs from obtaining their maximum potential. Hence, the heterogeneity in software turns most of the current processors, commonly called general-purpose processors, into overdesigned. That is, they have much more hardware resources than really needed to execute the software running on them. This fact would not represent a main problem if we were not concerned on the additional power consumption involved in software computation.
The final goal of this PhD dissertation consists in assigning each portion of software exactly the amount of hardware resources really needed to fully exploit its maximal potential; without consuming more energy than the strictly needed. That is, obtaining complexity-effective executions using the inherent heterogeneity in software behavior as steering indicator. Thus, we start deeply analyzing the heterogenous behaviour of the software run on top of general-purpose processors and then matching it on top of a heterogeneously distributed hardware, which explicitly exploit heterogeneous hardware requirements. Only by being heterogeneity-aware in software, and appropriately matching this software heterogeneity on top of hardware heterogeneity, may we effectively obtain better processor designs.
The PhD dissertation is comprised of four main contributions that cover both multithreaded single-core (hdSMT) and multicore (TCA Algorithm, hTCA Framework and MFLUSH) scenarios, deeply explained in their corresponding chapters in the PhD dissertation memory. Overall, these contributions cover a significant range of the Heterogeneity-Aware Processors' design space. Within this design space, we have focused on the state-of-the-art trend in processor design: Multithreaded Multicore (CMP+SMT) Processors.
We make special emphasis on the MPsim simulation tool, specifically designed and developed for this PhD dissertation. This tool has already gone beyond this PhD dissertation, becoming a reference tool by an important group of researchers spread over the Computer Architecture Department (DAC) at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) and the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC).

A previsão da produção de poços tem um papel crucial na engenharia de petróleo. Logo, a modelagem do escoamento no reservatório e no poço é fundamental em diversos problemas nessa área. Na maioria esmagadora dos problemas, a equação de Darcy é a escolha para prever o comportamento do fluxo em rochas petrolíferas. O grande sucesso do uso da equação de Darcy, infelizmente, levou sua aplicação para fora do âmbito dos problemas para os quais esta se aplica. A equação clássica de Darcy apresenta limitações quando aplicadas em meios porosos altamente heterogêneos, por exemplo com cavidades conectadas por redes de fraturas, com vugs e cavernas. Ao longo dos anos, outras modelagens foram propostas e derivadas de outros pontos de vista para tratar o escoamento em meios porosos, por exemplo, através do processo de média de volume ou através de teoria de mistura. O presente trabalho utiliza as equações médias em meios porosos. O modelo desenvolvido contabiliza termos adicionais para a equação de quantidade de movimento linear que são relevantes em várias situações práticas, e envolve a solução conjunta das equações de conservação. No modelo desenvolvido neste trabalho, o escoamento no reservatório é resolvido de forma acoplada ao escoamento ao longo do poço, considerando a possibilidade de utilização de diferentes tipos de completação. As previsões dos campos de pressão e velocidade, assim como a produtividade de poços de petróleo utilizando o modelo desenvolvido são comparadas com as previsões do modelo baseado na equação de Darcy. Mostra-se que para determinadas situações, em especial em reservatórios carbonáticos, altamente heterogêneos, grandes diferenças podem ser obtidas. A previsão da produtividade de um poço a partir da equação de Darcy pode ser significativamente super-estimada.
Predicting wellbore production plays a crucial role in petroleum engineering. Therefore, the modeling of the ow in reservoir and in wellbore is fundamental in several problems in this area. In the overwhelming majority problems, Darcy s equation is the choice to predict the behavior of ow in reservoirs. The great success of Darcy s equation, unfortunately, took its application out of the scope of the problems for which it applies. The classic Darcy s equation presents limitations when applied in highly heterogeneous porous media, for example with cavities connected by fracture networks, with vugs and caves. Over the years, other models have been proposed and derived from other points of view to treat ow in porous media, for example through the average volume process or through mixture theory. The present work considers the average volume process in porous media. The developed model includes additional terms for the linear momentum equation that are relevant in several practical situations, and involves the joint solution of conservation equations. In the model developed in this work, the ow in the reservoir is solved coupled to the wellbore ow, considering the possibility of using different completion types. The pressure and velocity fields predictions as well as the productivity of oil wellbores using the developed model are compared with the predictions of the model based on the Darcy s equation. It is shown that for certain situations, especially in highly heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs, large differences can be obtained. The prediction of the productivity of a wellbore from the Darcy s equation can be significantly overestimated.
