Payroll tax reductions for the low paid.
No full textA review of different theoretical models confirms that economists of opposing beliefs find themselves agreeing about the usefulness of employment subsidies. In a country with a relatively high wage floor, they reduce the cost of labour for firms. In countries where wage floors are low, subsidies can increase the net real wage of workers. In both cases, employment is likely to rise. Generally, allowing the price system to perform its allocative function while pursuing distributive objectives through the tax system is welfare enhancing. It is therefore surprising that such a remedy has not yet been implemented on a large scale in all countries suffering from labour market problems. One reason is that there may be a problem of transition. Empirical evidence suggests that reductions in taxes on labour will not solve employment and distribution problems, but will, in the long run, promise progress in both.
Voice Compression and Communications: Principles and Applications for Fixes and Wireless Channels
No full textUp-to-date, expert coverage of topics in wireless voice communications Voice communication is the most important facet of mobile radio service. Even when the predicted surge of wireless data and Internet services becomes a reality, voice will remain the most natural means of human communication. Voice Compression and Communications details issues in wireless voice communications and treats compression, channel coding, and wireless transmission as a joint subject. Part I covers background material, whereas Part II provides detailed information on both proprietary and standardized analysis-by-synthesis codecs, including the speech codecs of virtually all existing wireline-based and wireless systems. Parts III and IV discuss mainly research-based wideband, audio, as well as very low-rate schemes likely to find their way into future standards. Voice Compression and Communications describes fundamental concepts in a non-mathematical way early in the book for those with only a background knowledge of signal processing and communications. More advanced readers will find detailed discussions of theoretical principles, future concepts, and solutions to various specific wireless voice communications problems

Entrainment and detrainment rates from the piv measurements at the top of laboratory analogs of stratocumulus and cumulus clouds
No full textWe analyze mixing at the top of laboratory analogs of convective clouds: stratocumulus and cumulus to investigate entrainment of environmental air into the cloud. We retrieve two components of air velocity using Particle Image Velocimetry technique. Suitable image processing allows to determine cloud–clear air interface. Using velocity differences between cloudy and clear sides of the interface we calculate entrainment / detrainment rates
Vortex Dynamics in The Transitional and Turbulent Wake of 6:1 Prolate Spheroid at 45-deg incidence angle
No full textThe incompressible flow past a 6:1 prolate spheroid with an inclination angle of 45o at Re = 3,000 has been studied by means of direct numerical simulations (DNS). The Reynolds number is based on the inflow velocity and minor-axis length. The preliminary results presented here are focused mainly on vortex dynamics and vortical structures in the wake. The wake behind this configuration starts almost symmetric but is soon strongly deflected and bent as it evolves to the intermediate wake. A pair of unequal-strength vortices dominates the intermediate wake, of which one exhibits the shape of a long vortex tube while the other rapidly breaks down into turbulent-like vortical structures

L'union économique et monétaire européenne. Table ronde P. Artus C. de Boissieu G. Etrillard J.P. Fitoussi J.P. Landau P.A. Muet N. Thygessen.
No full text[fre] qu'un dispositif contraignant et centralisé apparaisse justifié. La convergence des structures économiques et comportements nationaux se révélera difficile et devra être facilitée par une politique active de transferts, mise en œuvre au sein du budget européen. [eng] Along with obvious benefits for european economies, monetary union will bring new constraints and disciplines. Some form of coordination of national fiscal policies, will be necessary, although not necessarily through binding controls at community level. Convergence between national economies will have to be facilitated by fiscal transfers through the community budget.
