In order to determine the sustainable supporting capacity of current Kiamusze water utilization situation to future society and economy, a dynamic simulation model of water resources sustainable utilization was built based on system dynamics (SD). The simulation results indicated that current Kiamusze water resources could not satisfy future demand of industrial and agricultural production and ...

Post Keynesian macrodynamic models make various assumptions about the normal rate of capacity utilization. Those rooted in Classical and neo-Keynesian traditions assume is fixed, whereas Kaleckian treat it as a variable that endogenous to actual This paper contributes debate utilization by developing model strong or genuine hysteresis, which firms discrete decisions depending on degree uncertai...

As the increased demands of wireless channel, there is the need for the proper utilization of the spectrum which leads us to the new technique called cognitive radio technologies. Static spectrum allocation need to merge with a technique where it can be share for the proper utilization of the spectrum. Higher capacity requirement is of great need. As long as the technology is been evolving the ...

We study the e ciency property of responsive pricing, a scheme that propose to increase prices as a function of the level of capacity utilization in environments where traditional allocation schemes (e.g. competitive markets, auctions) cannot be implemented in practice. We show that although responsive pricing implements allocations that are arbitrarily close to full capacity utilization (no wa...

We measure the capacity output of a firm as the maximum amount producible by a firm given a specific quantity of the quasi-fixed input and an overall expenditure constraint for its choice of variable inputs. We compute this indirect capacity utilization measure for the total manufacturing sector in the US as well as for a number of disaggregated industries, for the period 1970-2001. We find con...

Ð In developing countries, credit shortages are often so severe as to impact a ®rm's dayto-day production decisions. Using ®rm-level data from ®ve African countries, I show supplier credit is positively correlated with capacity utilization; the result continues to hold when credit access is instrumented using supplier characteristics. I claim that this is because ®rms lacking credit likely face...

Packet-switching WDM ring networks with a hotspot transporting unicast, multicast, and broadcast traffic are important components of high-speed metropolitan area networks. For an arbitrary multicast fanout traffic model with uniform, hotspot destination, and hotspot source packet traffic,we analyze themaximumachievable long-run average packet throughput, which we refer to as multicast capacity,...
