How to design decentralisation to curb secessionist pressures? Top-down vs. bottom-up reforms
Abstract This paper looks at decentralisation as an institutional solution for curbing secessionist pressures by making potentially seceding regions strictly better off by staying in the union. We show that a bottom-up decentralisation reform, where single regions that can opt to assume or not stronger fiscal responsibilities on the basis of ...

Study of Top-down and Bottom-up Approaches by Using Design of Experiment (DoE) to Produce Meloxicam Nanocrystal Capsules [PDF]
In order to investigate the correlation among energy input-related, drug-related, and stabilizer-related aspects for both top-down and bottom-up nanocrystal production, meloxicam nanosuspensions (NS) were produced by using three different methods (low-energy wet milling, high-pressure homogenization, and precipitation) and each method was optimized by ...

The engineering of TBBPA-degrading synthetic microbiomes with integrated strategies
The capability to understand and construct synthetic microbiomes is crucial in biotechnological innovation and application. Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is an emerging pollutant, and the understanding of its biodegradation is very limited.

20% by 2020? Economy-wide impacts of energy efficiency improvement in Germany [PDF]
The paper presents results of the implementation of an efficiency strategy in Germany until 2020 which is focused on cost-effective measures. The efficiency measures are calculated in bottom-up models and translated into a top-down macro-economic model ...
