Institutions and economic change : A critical survey of the new institutional approaches and empirical evidence
(2008)The purpose of this paper is to review the main literature that has analyzed the channels through which institutions influence economic change, hence development. The interest for this topic arises from the relatively ... -
Institutions and Financial System Development in Africa
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014-08-27)Recent research suggests that financial system development is important for economic development and for reducing financing constraints of firms (Levine, 2005). Consequently, researchers started investigating the factors ... -
Institutions and individuals : Interaction and evolution
(2007)The conceptualization of the relation between individual and structure is central to social science. After making some key definitions, this paper overviews some recent developments in the social theory of structure and ... -
Instruction cache tuning for embedded multitasking applications
(2010)With the advent of mobile and handheld devices, power consumption in embedded systems has become a key design issue. Recently, it has been shown that cache requirements of the applications vary widely and a significant ... -
Instruction scheduling for a superscalar architecture
(University of Hertfordshire, 1996)It is increasingly accepted that superscalar processors can only achieve their full performance potential through compile-time instruction scheduling. This paper presents preliminary performance results using a Conditional ... -
Instructors’ emotional intelligence and learning engagement of online students
(2023-07-12)This study explored how online students perceived their instructors’ emotional intelligence (EI) and its impact on their learning engagement. Using eight EI behaviours of online instructors and a learning engagement ... -
An instrument for monitoring number and mass of ambient particles in coarse, fine and ultrafine size ranges
(University of Hertfordshire, 2003)Airborne particulate matter is today recognized as an important category of air pollutants. Current air quality standards, and hence most particle instruments, are based on particle mass concentration-the European standard, ... -
An instrument for the simultaneous acquisition of size, shape, and spectral fluorescence data from single aerosol particles.
(SPIE, 2004)We describe the construction of a bio-aerosol monitor designed to capture and record intrinsic fluorescence spectra from individual aerosol particles carried in a sample airflow and to simultaneously capture data relating ... -
Instrumentational operation and analytical methodology for the reconciliation of aerosol water uptake under sub- and supersaturated conditions
(2010)The methodology for the operation and calibration of a hygroscopicity tandem differential mobility analyser (HTDMA) and cloud condensation nuclei counter (CCNc) for size-resolved measurements of aerosol water uptake are ... -
Instumentation of Ultrasonic High-Frequency Machine to Estimate Applied Stress in Middle Section of Specimen
(2012-07)The objective of this paper is to describe the instrumentation of a new developed ultrasonic fatigue testing machine at 20 kHz working frequency and compare the possible solutions to estimate the stress applied in the ... -
Insulin inhibits glucagon release by SGLT2-induced stimulation of somatostatin secretion
(2019-01-11)Hypoglycaemia (low plasma glucose) is a serious and potentially fatal complication of insulin-treated diabetes. In healthy individuals, hypoglycaemia triggers glucagon secretion, which restores normal plasma glucose levels ... -
Integer division by small constants
(University of Hertfordshire, 1990)Integer division is considered within the context of the development of iHARP, an integrated circuit version of HARP, the HAtfield RISC Processor architecture. The paper demonstrates that execution times for division by ... -
Integrable achiral D5-brane reflections and asymptotic Bethe equations
(2011-07-20)We study the reflection of magnons from a D5-brane in the framework of the AdS/CFT correspondence. We consider two possible orientations of the D5-brane with respect to the reference vacuum state, namely vacuum states ... -
An integrable deformation of the AdS5 x S5 superstring action
(2014-02-05)An integrable deformation of the type IIB AdS5xS5 superstring action is presented. The deformed field equations, Lax connection, and k-symmetry transformations are given. The original psu (2,2\4) symmetry is expected to ... -
Integrable double deformation of the principal chiral model
(2015-02-01)We define a two-parameter family of integrable deformations of the principal chiral model on an arbitrary compact group. The Yang–Baxter σ-model and the principal chiral model with a Wess–Zumino term both correspond to ... -
Integrable Models From Twisted Half Loop Algebras
(2006-09-21)This paper is devoted to the construction of new integrable quantum mechanical models based on certain subalgebras of the half loop algebra of gl(N). Various results about these subalgebras are proven by presenting them ...
