We study the case where parallel trade (PT) stems from government price controls in a foreign country. We remove the presumption that PT blunts dynamic efficiency if the government has partial commitment ability. We model the R&D firm’s option to serve the foreign country, and find that PT may improve quality, depending on preferences for quality. Improving quality may be a sufficient condition...

Trade-o s between code selection, register allocation, and instruction scheduling are inherently interdependent, especially when compiling for ne-grain parallel architectures. However, the conventional approach to compiling for such machines arbitrarily separates these phases so that decisions made during any one phase place unnecessary constraints on the remaining phases. Mutation Scheduling a...

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new emerging network architecture, which allows, among other things, an efficient convergence between circuit switching and packet switching. However, this convergence imposes a trade-off between control plane load and data plane efficiency: while the SDN controller needs to establish one or more paths (circuits) that can deliver the required bandwidth wit...

Among non-oil exports and in trade arena, drug has always been strategic importance and most government especially industrialized countries pay special attention to its production and trade issues. Thus, having a comprehensive view from economic perspective to this section is essential for suggesting intervention. This was a descriptive-analytical and panel study. In this study, gravity model i...

Trade studies have become an indispensable engineering activity and are used often in the early stage of system architecture development. not only help when choosing most balanced alternative, but also essential highlighting influential aspects system. highly sophisticated systems very complex. Therefore, given these complexities, we proposed a new trade study process for developed Unified Arch...

Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) have become an increasingly prominent feature of the international trade environment, with salient examples being the widening and deepening of the European Union (EU), the success of the Mercosur, and the formation of the North American Free Trade Association (NAFTA). In fact, a majority of the active agreements notified to gatt through 1995 were signed in ...

Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) on services have proliferated since 2000. This working paper briefly presents the expansion of the dataset initially developed in Marchetti and Roy (2008). The data permits to assess the extent to which market access commitments undertaken by WTO Members in PTAs go beyond GATS commitments and offers made in the context of the Doha Development Agenda. The dat...
