Scotland’s international competitiveness within Western Europe
The paper measures regional competitiveness of Scotland in comparison to ten EU regions and small countries using the International Benchmarking Index Family (‘IB Index Family’) developed by BAK Basel Economics.1 The IB Index Family contains an index with three dimensions of competitiveness: Performance, Attractiveness and Structural Potential. The Performance Index measures recent economic success; the Attractiveness Index measures how well a region is an attractive location to companies and highly-qualified individuals; and the Structural Potential Index estimates future potential economic growth based on current economic structure. The application of the IB Index Family provides a first-step into a more in-depth benchmarking of the competitiveness of a region, which is necessary when working towards detailed policy conclusions. The paper explains these measurement tools and applies them in a short benchmarking analysis of Scotland and ten EU regions and small nations (e.g. Ireland, Norway, Western Sweden etc.)

From wavelets to multiwavelets
This paper gives an overview of recent achievements of the multiwavelet theory. The construction of multiwavelets is based on a multiresolution analysis with higher multiplicity generated by a scaling vector. The basic properties of scaling vectors such as L 2 -stability, approximation order and regularity are studied. Most of the proofs are sketched
Sparse Data Representation on the Sphere using the Easy Path Wavelet Transform
In this paper we consider the Easy PathWavelet Transform (EPWT) on spherical triangulations. The EPWT has been introduced in [7] in order to obtain sparse image representations. It is a locally adaptive transform that works along pathways through the array of function values and exploits the local correlations of the data in a simple appropriate manner. In our approach the usual one-dimensional discrete wavelet transform (DWT), orthogonal or biorthogonal, can be applied
Jonathan Hoch Collection
Jakob Jonathan Hoch was born on March 9, 1826, in Basel, Switzerland. After completing his education in Europe, he spent time as a missionary in Nigeria, and then taught for a short time at Nazareth Hall in Nazareth, PA. He then married Francis "Fanny" Erisman in 1859, after being called to a missionary position in Central America. The couple worked as missionaries on the Mosquito Coast and the Bluefields in Nicaragua, on the Corn Islands off the coast of Nicaragua, in St. Thomas, and in Barbados before returning to the United States. Hoch died on November 1, 1869 in Emmaus. 1 box Four volume collection of transcriptions of Jakob Jonathan Hoch\u27s letters to his family from German script to Latin script. The letters describe his time as a member of the church in Europe and North America, as well as his time as a missionary in Africa and Central America. The letters also include notes, clarifications, and translations by the transcriber. Also included are several letters from Hoch\u27s wife to her mother-in-law in English and one original letter from Hoch to his mother. The letters were transcribed by H. and L. Hoch-Fischer in 1925 in Switzerland and sent to Hoch\u27s daughters, who were living in Bethlehem
