To Root or Not to Root? The Economics of Jailbreak [PDF]
Abstract We construct a structural model that allows us to jointly estimate the demand for smartphones and paid apps using a Bayesian approach. Our data comes from more than 500 college students in Hong Kong and Shanghai. We find that the utility cost rather than the upfront monetary cost of jailbreaking smartphones determines its prevalence.

A root is a root is a root? Water uptake rates of Citrus root orders [PDF]
ABSTRACT Knowledge about the physiological function of root orders is scant. In this study, a system to monitor the water flux among root orders was developed using miniaturized chambers. Different root orders of 4‐year‐old Citrus volkameriana trees were analysed with ...

Exploiting a novel geo-referenced data set of population diversity across ethnic groups, this research advances the hypothesis and empirically establishes that variation in population diversity across human societies, as determined in the course of the exodus of humans from Africa tens of thousands of years ago, contributed to the differential ...

The New EURODAC Regulation: Fingerprints as a Source of Informal Discrimination
The EURODAC Regulation establishes the database of the fingerprints of asylum seekers. In 2015, the new EURODAC Regulation came in force and some basic concepts that were not in the previous regulation have been changed.

The estimation of phylogenetic relationships is an essential component of understanding evolution. Accurate phylogenetic estimation is difficult, however, when internodes are short and old, when genealogical discordance is common due to large ancestral effective population sizes or ancestral population structure, and when homoplasy is prevalent ...

The impact of the Lisbon Treaty on the development of EU immigration legislation
Although the status of the Lisbon Treaty is still pending, the possible impact that it can have on the EU’s immigration legislation is worth analysing and discussing.

A wide range of counting and occurrence constraints can be specified with just two global primitives: the Range constraint, which computes the range of values used by a sequence of variables, and the Roots constraint, which computes the variables mapping onto a set of values. We focus here on the Roots constraint.

Taro Roots: An Underexploited Root Crop
Taro (Colocasia esculenta) is a root crop that remains largely underutilized and undervalued despite its abundance and affordability. In comparison to other root vegetables, such as potatoes, yams, carrots, and cassava, taro stands out as a plentiful and low-cost option.

Physiological changes of three woody plants exposed to progressive salt stress
The saline character of water imposes restrictions on plant growth and survival in the Taklamakan Desert, China. Experiments were conducted on woody plant species, Tamarix ramosissima, Populus euphratica, and Haloxylon ammodendron grown under different ...

Root Vertex Valency Distributions of Rooted Maps and Rooted Triangulations
We obtain the asymptotic distributions of root vertex valencies for rooted maps and rooted triangulations on general surfaces. We show that the asymptotic distributions are independent of the surface.
