Markov regime switching models are often used to model energy prices. We have applied these to six electricity markets. The seasonal variation is corrected for by using the month ahead forward price as a predictor. This paper extends to the current framework by using Gamma distributed spikes, which improves the fit for most energy markets. Applications on European energy markets are provided with

Pauses in spontaneous speech have a freer distribution than pauses in read texts; however, they are not distributed haphazardly. The results of the present study show that the majority of the perceived pauses in the spontaneous speech material, 73%, occur in one of the following three positions: between sentences, after discourse markers and conjunctions and before accented content words. This is

A kinetic investigation of the ammoxidation of toluene was carried out over a TiO,(B)-supported vanadium oxide catalyst with a loading corresponding to a theoretical monolayer. The partial pressures of reactants toluene, oxygen, and ammonia were varied, and rates were measured for the formations of benzaldehyde and benzonitrile. By analysis of the rate dependencies on partial pressures of reactant

This paper presents a hybrid interconnect network consisting of a local network with dedicated wires and a global hierarchical network. A distributed memory approach enables the possibility to use generic memory banks as routing buffers, simplifies the implementation and reduces the area requirements of routers. A SystemC simulation environment (SCENIC) has been developed to simulate and instrumen

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling fokuserar en religiös aktör i det civila samhället under en konfliktfylld tid. Judiska, muslimska och kristna barn studerade tillsammans i anglikanska missionsskolor under den brittiska mandattiden i Palestina. Jerusalem var då etniskt och religiöst delat. Det anglikanska utbildningsprojektet var en del av den Anglikanska kyrkans försök att främja konflThis thesis concerns a religious actor in the civil society in times of violent conflict. During the British Mandate period in Palestine, Jewish, Muslim and Christian children studied together at Anglican missionary schools. At this time Jerusalem bore all the imprints of ethnic and religious separation and division. The Anglican educational project became part of the efforts made by the Anglican

Vi ser tiden som ett flöde. Händelser är först framtida, sedan nutida och efterhand alltmer dåtida. Denna ”A-tid” ville filosofen McTaggart skilja ut från ”B-tiden”, punkter som kan representeras av bestämda klockslag. Även i B-tiden finns tidpunkter som ligger före och efter varandra, men tidsrelationerna förändras aldrig. McTaggart hävdade att A-tiden inte fanns i verkligheten.

The terminal investment hypothesis predicts that individuals should invest more in their present reproduction if they are less likely to survive to future reproductive events. Infections, which reduce viability, may be used by individuals as a cue of a diminishing residual reproductive value and could therefore theoretically trigger an intensification of breeding effort. We tested this hypothesis
