Global Modeling and Prediction of Computer Network Traffic [PDF]
, 2009 We develop a probabilistic framework for global modeling of the traffic over a computer network. This model integrates existing single-link (-flow) traffic models with the routing over the network to capture the global traffic behavior.

Powering Transparency: Global Drivers of Sustainability Reporting in the Electricity Sector
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine the drivers of sustainability reporting quality (QSR), conceptualised along two complementary dimensions, relevance and reliability, to assess how firm‐level attributes and institutional conditions jointly shape disclosure practices in the electricity sector.

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2019 The empirical best linear unbiased prediction (eBLUP) is usually based on the assumption that the residual error variance (REV) is homogenous. This may be unrealistic, and therefore limits the accuracy of genotype evaluations for multi-location trials ...

Estimadores compuestos en estadística regional: aplicación para la tasa de variación de la ocupación en la industria [PDF]
This work is part of a project studying the performance of model based estimators in a small area context. We have chosen a simple statistical application in which we estimate the growth rate of accupation for several regions of Spain.

Semi-Parametric Empirical Best Prediction for small area estimation of unemployment indicators
, 2018 The Italian National Institute for Statistics regularly provides estimates of unemployment indicators using data from the Labor Force Survey. However, direct estimates of unemployment incidence cannot be released for Local Labor Market Areas.
