In the first paper presented at the conference, Riccardo DiCecio and Edward Nelson presented a monetary policy model estimated to fit U.K. data. The model is a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model based on the popular work of Christiano, Eichenbaum, and Evans (2005; CEE). This version of the DSGE model is characterized by a number of economic frictions arising from wage and price...

This paper analyses the emergence of central Europe as a new location for the production of electronics. The main factors that drive integration in the region into global production networks are also analysed, as well as prospects for upgrading the industry by using network alignment perspectives. Foreign investment is the primary vehicle of integration of CEE electronics firms into global prod...

Summary Kraljic's purchasing portfolio approach has inspired many academic writers to undertake further research into purchasing portfolio models. Although it is evident that power and dependence issues play an important role in the Kraljic matrix, scant quantitative research has been undertaken in this respect. In our study we have filled this gap by proposing quantitative measures for ‘relati...

The paper presents the published results regarding the radon concentrations in indoor air in Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Slovenia, Slovak Republic, Ukraine and Yugoslavia from Carpathian Basin. The study is based on the materials of the International Nuclear Information System (INIS) on a 10 year period (1986 1997). It is completed with the results of the papers published in the Conferences volu...

The E proteins of mammals, and the related Daughterless (DA) protein of Drosophila, are ubiquitously expressed helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factors that play a role in many developmental processes. We report here the characterization of a related C. elegans protein, CeE/DA, which has a dynamic and restricted distribution during development. CeE/DA is present embryonically in neuronal pr...

In order to incorporate FDI factors for different MNEs, industries and countries, a unique dataset that includes country-, industryand firmlevel data is constructed. This approach avoids the aggregation or disaggregation problem by considering several levels of data simultaneously in to the analysis. The constructed database contains information on 1,223 foreign investment made by EU15 countrie...

The gas chromatography method with direct injection for quantitative determination of residual nonvolatile solvents such as 2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethanol (CEE) and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) in quetiapine--the pharmaceutical active substance has been validated. Validation was performed according to the requirement of ICH validation guidelines Q2A and Q2B. Specificity, precision, accuracy, linea...
