Multithread Approximation: An OpenMP Constructor
ABSTRACT This study introduces an OpenMP construct designed to simplify and unify the integration of approximate computing techniques into shared‐memory parallel programs. Approximate Computing leverages the inherent error tolerance of many applications to trade computational accuracy for gains in performance and energy efficiency.

Dynamic Debt With Intensity‐Based Models
ABSTRACT This article proposes a dynamic debt model where the face value of debt can change. In particular, our dynamic debt setting allows debt changes ruled by intensity processes that are linked to the firm value through the correlation between the stochastic processes. Analytical solutions are obtained, and we extend the proposed dynamic debt model

Robust option replication for a Black-Scholes model extended with nondeterministic trends [PDF]
Statistical analysis on various stocks reveals long range dependence behavior of the stock prices that is not consistent with the classical Black and Scholes model.

N2 fixation is linked to the ability to encroach in African savanna trees
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Encroachment is a globally ubiquitous phenomenon, characterised by increasing indigenous tree densities in savanna and grassland. Encroachment has been attributed to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations fertilising tree growth and shifting the competitive balance ...

Correction to Black-Scholes formula due to fractional stochastic volatility
Empirical studies show that the volatility may exhibit correlations that decay as a fractional power of the time offset. The paper presents a rigorous analysis for the case when the stationary stochastic volatility model is constructed in terms of a ...

Supply chain risk in grain trading: Inventories as real options for shipping grain
Abstract Integrating trading and logistics is an important challenge in commodity trading. Trading and logistics are strategic decisions and are integral to most commodities including grain shipping by rail, in addition to other modes (barges, ocean shipping). There are substantial risks, such as the ordering and placement of rail cars.

Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with

Implicit cubic B-spline scheme for the fractional Black-Scholes model with Caputo-Hadamard derivative [PDF]
In this study, we introduce a novel numerical scheme for solving the Black–Scholes equation endowed with a Caputo-Hadamard fractional time derivative. The temporal derivative is discretized via a finite-difference approach, ensuring both stability and ...

Tournament incentives and reserve management
Abstract This paper examines the impact of internal tournament incentives on reserve management within the property‐liability insurance industry. We find a positive relationship between internal tournament incentives and reserve errors, suggesting that a larger tournament prize is associated with more conservative loss‐reserve management.
