The Internet is rapidly growing in number of users, traffic volume, and topological complexity. At the same time it is increasingly driven by economic competition. These developments render it more difficult, and yet more critical, to characterize network usage and workload trends, and point to the need for a high performance monitoring system that can provide workload data to Internet users an...

Horticulture is the agricultural subsector that mostly occupied by farmers, this can be seen from amount of land use for horticulture which more dominant than other subsectors, according to Department Agriculture and food security, sector has a planting area ​​6449,758 hectares with total hectares. As many as 71 horticultural commodities are cultivated, Batu City one areas in East Java relies o...

1. The second question suggested by the analytical framework is whether market failures will result from decreases in the prices of commodity outputs, in a context of agricultural policy reform. To answer this question, we need to know: (1) how price decreases will affect the level of production of both commodity and non-commodity outputs, and (2) what is the value of the resulting reduction in...

The authors found that, concurrent with the rapidly growing index investment in commodity markets since the early 2000s, prices of non-energy commodity futures in the United States have become increasingly correlated with oil prices; this trend has been significantly more pronounced for commodities in two popular commodity indices. This finding reflects the financialization of the commodity mar...

This paper presents a theory of inflation in an economy with commodity money and supports it by evidence from the inflationary episodes in France during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The paper shows that commodity money can be inflated similarly to fiat money through repeated debasements, which act like devaluation. Furthermore, as with fiat money, demand for commodity money falls wit...

The construction of commodity-by-commodity input-output matrices from Make and Use matrices is a much debated area. Different views compete with each other, both in theoretical aspects as in practical appraisement of the importance of the various issues involved. The commodity-technology assumption and the industry-technology assumptions form the basic theoretical concepts between which one mus...

There has been considerable success in analytic modeling of the 802.11 MAC layer. These models are based on a number of fundamental assumptions. In this paper we attempt to verify these assumptions by taking careful measurements using an 802.11e testbed with commodity hardware. We show that the assumptions do not always hold but our measurements offer insight as to why the models may still prod...

Future contracts in commodity market with limited maturities are primarily used for hedging commodity price-fluctuation risks or for taking advantage of price movements, rather than for the buying or selling of the actual cash commodity. This paper is an effort to analyze the market efficiency of the Indian commodity market and volatility spillover effects between the spot and future market wit...

We study here numerically the behavior of an ideal gas like model of markets having only one non-consumable commodity. We investigate the behavior of the steady-state distributions of money, commodity and total wealth, as the dynamics of trading or exchange of money and commodity proceeds, with local (in time) fluctuations in the price of the commodity. These distributions are studied in market...
