Trade Performance of Fruit and Vegetable Industry in Selected ASEAN Countries
No full textThis paper examines the trade performance for thirteen commodities in the fruit and vegetable industry in relation to that of selected ASEAN countries (Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand), based on Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) indicator. The analysis shows that Singapore has comparative advantage in 5 commodities (ground-nuts, hazelnuts, plums, apricots and walnuts), Philippines has comparative advantage in 3 commodities (tomatoes nes prepared or preserved, tomatoes whole or in peaces and cherries), Thailand and Malaysia has comparative advantage in 2 commodities (citrus fruits, fruit and vegetable juice, and tomatoes and apple juice, respectively) while Indonesia has comparative advantage in 1 commodity (cashew nuts). Malaysia has comparative advantage only in tomatoes and apple juice but comparative disadvantage in other commodities such as cashew nuts, walnuts and fruit and vegetable juice. The RCA index for apple juice in Malaysia is increasing over the years 2000 to 2006 indicating improvement in comparative advantage. However, the comparative advantage of tomatoes is constant.Trade performance, fruit and vegetable sector, revealed comparative advantage and ASEAN

From Albania to Brazil: Ismail Kadaré's Broken april and its filmic adaptation, Walter Salles' Abril despedaçado
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira
The life and mathematics of Ismail Mohamed
No full textIsmail Mohamed’s major contributions, which were in collaboration with Hermann Heineken, was to provide a procedure for constructing groups with prescribed characteristics. In particular, they constructed examples of non-nilpotent groups in which every subgroup is subnormal and nilpotent. These have become known as the Heineken–Mohamed groups. This construction led to settling a few questions posed, in the 1940s, by Kurosh and Cernikov in their survey of various generalisations of nilpotency. He also studied properties of series of subgroups of a group G that are constructed from arbitrary subgroups of automorphisms of a group
Video Streaming over D2D Networks
No full textA Master of Science thesis in Electrical Engineering by Ibtihal Mohamed Taha Ahmed entitled, “Video Streaming over D2D Networks”, submitted in April 2019. Thesis advisor is Dr. Mahmoud H. Ismail Ibrahim and thesis co-advisor is Dr. Mohamed S. Hassan. Soft and hard copy available.Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has been presented as an innovation that can improve the cellular network performance by exploiting the proximity-based service between closely-located devices. Enabling D2D communication increases the energy efficiency, improves the capacity of the network and reduces the communication delay. Despite the above-mentioned advantages, D2D communication presents some challenges, for example, the need for proper interference management, power control, mode selection and device discovery. Nowadays, the increasing demand for video streaming has led to rapid growth in data traffic that is unable to be handled by traditional networks. Consequently, many works in the literature suggested employing D2D communication for video transmission to offload the cellular network and enhance the quality of video streaming. Moreover, the emergence of video-based applications has stimulated the need for high-performance D2D communication. This thesis focuses on video streaming over D2D communications underlaying a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network where Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is assumed. In particular, joint resource allocation, mode selection and power control for multiple D2D pairs are addressed. The objective is to maximize the throughput of D2D pairs while considering the minimum data rate requirements by both the Cellular Users (CUs) as well as the D2D pairs and maintain video quality and continuity. Resources are allocated to each CU and D2D pair in three modes of operation; cellular, dedicated and reuse and a mode selection algorithm is implemented. Furthermore, a packet-layer video assessment model is applied to predict the impact of network conditions on video quality. Finally, the effect of mobility on mode selection is examined. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated through extensive simulations and compared to the scenarios where only one mode of transmission is used for all D2D pairs. Simulation results show that mode selection improves the throughput of D2D pairs while providing better video quality. We assess the effect of user mobility on system performance and observe quality degradation for high mobility scenario.College of EngineeringDepartment of Electrical EngineeringMaster of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE
