A Censored Random Coefficients Model for Pooled Survey Data with Application to the Estimation of Power Outage Costs [PDF]

open access: yes
In many surveys multiple observations on the dependent variable are collected from a given respondent. The resulting pooled data set is likely to be censored and to exhibit cross-sectional heterogeneity.

Outage Analysis of Correlated Source Transmission in Block Rayleigh Fading Channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A goal of this paper is to theoretically derive the outage probability of the correlated source transmission in block Rayleigh fading channels. The correlation between the two information sources is assumed to be expressed by the bit flipping model ...

Institutional Diversity in Banking and Economic Complexity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we test whether institutional diversity in banking systems is beneficial to economic complexity, using data for Italian provinces in the period 1998–2017. We compute different indexes that consider diversity from an ownership, institutional, business model and competition point of view and find that higher diversity has a ...

Investigation of the Lower Bound of Outage Threshold in Indoor Power-Line Networks

open access: yes, 2016
We theoretically investigate lower bound of the outage threshold based on channel capacity degradation in indoor power-line networks and its practical applicability to a realistic indoor power-line network existing in practice.

Institutional Fragility and E‐Business Adoption: A Study of SMEs in a Conflict‐Affected Economy

open access: yesStrategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines e‐business adoption among SMEs in Yemen, a conflict‐affected and institutionally fragile economy. Drawing on a mixed‐methods design, it combines Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS‐SEM) with qualitative interviews to analyse how war and firm size moderate the effects of key adoption drivers and barriers.
