    In response to concerns over the efficacy of the WTO dispute settlement system, especially in regard to its use by developing countries, Mexico has tabled a proposal to introduce tradable remedies within the Dispute Settlement Understanding. The idea is that a country that has won cause before the WTO, and who is facing non-implementation by the author of the illegal act but feels that its own capacity to exercise its right to impose countermeasures is unlikely to lead to compliance, can auction off that right. The attractiveness of this idea is that it offers an additional possibility to injured WTO members to get something from the dispute settlement mechanism without putting into question the legal nature of the existing contract, that is, the predominantly decentralized system of enforcement in the WTO. Examining all disputes brought to the WTO since its inception, the authors find some support for Mexico's perception that developing countries face a practical problem when they attempt to carry through with effective retaliation within the WTO system. And based on the formal results of Bagwell, Mavroidis, and Staiger (2003), they describe arguments that lend some support to the efficacy of Mexico's proposed solution from the perspective of formal economic theory.Information Technology,International Terrorism&Counterterrorism,General Technology,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Trade and Services,Economic Theory&Research,International Terrorism&Counterterrorism,Information Technology,World Trade Organization

Eng. in Computer Science and Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2019Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 81-84).Developing new drugs relies heavily on understanding the various molecular properties of potential drug candidates. While experimental assays performed in the lab are the best source of information about molecular properties, these assays are slow and expensive. For this reason, there has been great interest in the potential of machine learning models to predict molecular properties without the need for experimental assays. However, recent literature has not yet clearly determined which machine learning models are optimal for molecular property prediction. In this thesis, I apply the Direct Message Passing Neural Network (D-MPNN) from [47, 48] to 19 publicly available property prediction datasets, and I demonstrate that it consistently outperforms prior machine learning models. Additionally, I introduce several optimizations to the D-MPNN which further enhance its performance and lead to new state-of-the-art results.by Kyle Swanson.M.

    This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Thesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Architecture, 2019Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references.Architecture has historically been situated within the world of mixed reality. Brunelleschi's Baptistery in Florence introduced illusory space inserting depth into a two-dimensional plane in the fifteenth century. Centuries later, the Bauhaus challenged the hegemony of perspectival space in favor of axonometric projection, subverting the perceived experience of architecture for its formal attributes. Today our perception of the world is mediated by social media, photo manipulation software, and screen resolution. These technologies conspire not for a fidelity to reality but to promote social and political agendas-truth is not truth. Conversely, rapid improvements in camera technology attempts an objective unification of what qualifies as "clear" and "crisp" photography to document the world while counter-cultural technologies, including hallucinogenic drugs, seek clarification of a different kind. Sightfulness is a guided trip through media phase changes. It fluidly moves between photo realistic representations of common elements in space to impossible infinite multiplications, inversions, distortions and moments of pure abstraction. It leverages advances in computational software that allow a blurring between the virtual and the real. It disorients the viewer through unpredictable transitions, destabilizing their conception of the world that they are inhabiting.by Kyle Branchesi.S.M.S.M.

    Data from: Individual repeatability in laying behaviour does not support the migratory carry-over effect hypothesis of egg-size dimorphism in Eudyptes penguins

    Penguins of the genus Eudyptes are unique among birds in that their first-laid A-egg is 54–85% the mass of their second-laid B-egg. Although the degree of intra-clutch egg-size dimorphism varies greatly among the seven species of the genus, obligate brood reduction is typical of each, with most fledged chicks resulting from the larger B-egg. Many authors have speculated upon why Eudyptes penguins have evolved and maintained a highly dimorphic 2-egg clutch, and why it is the first-laid egg that is so much smaller than the second, but only recently has a testable, proximate mechanism been proposed. In most species of Eudyptes penguins females appear to initiate egg-formation at sea during return migration to breeding colonies. In macaroni penguins E. chrysolophus, females with a shorter pre-laying interval ashore (and thus presumably greater overlap between migration and egg-formation) lay more dimorphic eggs, suggesting a physiological conflict may constrain growth of the earlier-initiated A-egg. This migratory carry-over effect hypothesis (MCEH) was tested in eastern rockhopper penguins E. chrysocome filholi on Campbell Island, New Zealand, by recording the arrival and lay dates, body sizes, and egg masses of transponder-tagged females over two years. Females with longer pre-laying intervals laid less dimorphic clutches, as predicted by the MCEH. However, repeated measures of individual females revealed that within-individual variation in egg-size dimorphism between years was unrelated to within-individual variation in pre-laying interval. Egg masses, and to a lesser extent egg-size dimorphism, were highly repeatable traits related to body size and body mass. These results and a detailed consideration of the MCEH suggest that egg-size dimorphism in Eudyptes penguins is unlikely to be caused by a migratory carry-over effect

M is what we can all acheive" A Mature Outlook On Life... PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Our Yearbook has come of age! It is gratifying to note that in the last couple of years deadlines have been met and the student committee has accepted real responsibility for the publication. And incredible as it may appear, the year­book account should show a moderate surplus this year. A cooperative effort has paid off! Thanks are due to the advisor Mr. Morrison, to the student’s councils for al­locating special funds, to the publisher’s representatives for their guidance, and especially to the yearbook committees for their committment and determination. However, the future of our current school program does not look so bright. In recent years the opertional costs haf have escalated along with rising costs everywhere. Inflation has taken its toll—decreasing purchasing power for supplies and replacement of equipment. We have six fewer teachers than we had five years ago, although our average yearly enrol­ment has not declined in that proportion. It has become in­creasingly difficult to maintain a broad program for the ben­efit of students with diverse needs and interests. Many classes are larger than they should be for effect­ive teaching and learning; some classes in special interest areas may be too small to justify in strictly economic terms, but justifiable in terms of opportunities for non academically - oriented students. Provincial funding does not appear to be geared to a suf­ficiently high priority for education. The quality and extent of programs are bound to be affected. I expect that in the next few years the question of local priorities will become much more urgent, and that decisions may be made concerning substantial reduction or elimination of certain programs. If present trends continue there is a high probability that W. R, Myers will become essentially an academic Junior/ Senior high school simply because the operational costs per student per year are thereby minimized. Although there may be little argument over the need to main maintain a basic core academic program, there is likely to be much anxiety and stress when it comes to areas such as indust­rial arts, home economics, business education, art and music. What criteria will be used to judge their comparative educa­tional values? Will comparative financial costs be the crucial factor? In the final analysis we must all face this question: How important is the school, and what do we want it to do for our students?

R. Myers High School on June 23, 1975 en route to Calgary airport. Wardair took efficient care of us and all our baggage, and once installed inside the 747, Myer's students lost no time im getting down to the business of eating, drinking, and trying to impress the stewardesses. The night was very short flying at 35000 feet and the next morning with the sun shining down on the green fields, our plane touched down at Gatwich airport, 40 miles south of London. There we were met by 2 buses and their drivers, Phil and Sinclair, who stayed with us throughout the entire 3 weeks. Suffice it to say that Phil and Sine turned out to be not only excellent drivers in England's congested traffic, but travel counsellors, baggage handlers, and our most enthusiastic applauders at every concert. It is impossible to summarize the varied activities of three weeks in a few short paragraphs. However some over-riding impressions remain: The support from the community, the unity which developed be­tween student, teacher and parent, and the work of the execu­tive committee were the three main factors in the success of the project The thrill of performing to capacity audiences nearly every­where we went; the chance to look at a foreigh educational system; the chance to view Taber and our life style from a distance and to compare it with another. These were experi­ences not commonly met with in day to day life. The trip helped to invest the music program at the school with a certain amount of prestige. It also laid an excel­lent groundwork of cooperation amoug parents of music stud­ents—a spirit that has been carried on further this year by the Myers Music Association add those whose liaison in the future may help to benefit the music program at Myers still more.

      Using a multicenter, randomized controlled trial, (N = 123, age 23 [+ or -] 4 years) we sought to determine whether administration of a novel, topical creatine supplement could improve muscular performance after acute and repeated (7-day) exposure. To study the acute performance enhancing effects of the supplement, subjects completed 5 sets of 15 maximal concentric single-leg knee extensions with and without the application of a low- (low dose [LD]-3.5 ml) or high-dose (high dose [HD]-7 ml) topical creatine cream. After a wash-out period, subjects had one leg randomized to receive either the creatine or placebo cream, with further randomization into an oral creatine or placebo supplement group. Subjects completed 5 sets of 15 maximal concentric single leg knee extensions before and after the supplementation protocol. After acute application, no significant differences in peak power (LD: 252 [+ or -] 93 W, HD: 261 [+ or -] 100 W, p = 0.21), average power (LD: 172 [+ or -] 65 W, HD: 177 [+ or -] 69 W, p = 0.78), or fatigue index (LD: 13.4 [+ or -] 10.6%, HD: 14 [+ or -] 11.9%, p = 0.79) were observed between experimental and placebo creams (peak power: LD: 244 [+ or -] 76 W, HD: 267 [+ or -] 109 W; average power: LD: 168 [+ or -] 57 W, HD: 177 [+ or -] 67 W; fatigue index: LD: 12.4 [+ or -] 9.6%, HD: 12.8 [+ or -] 10.6%) or when controlling for sex. After the 7-day supplementation protocol, a significant increase in average power (creatine: 203 [+ or -] 61-220 [+ or -] 65 W, placebo: 224 [+ or -] 61-214 [+ or -] 61 W) and peak power (creatine: 264 [+ or -] 73-281 [+ or -] 80 W, placebo: 286 [+ or -] 79-271 [+ or -] 73 W) in the leg receiving creatine cream was observed in male subjects. No differences were observed in female subjects. The topical creatine cream did not enhance measures of muscle performance after acute application, but was able to improve peak and average power in male subjects after 7 consecutive days of application

      This report explored the feasibility of dechlorination of mixed plastic waste systems using a low-temperature pyrolysis process. Decomposition of plastics into chlorides is of interest due to the damage these can pose to both the process system, products, and the environment. Therefore, dechlorination of mixed plastics waste streams is essential to remove detrimental chlorides before entering the processing stage. Relevant literature presents that chloride is found in PVC in plastic mixtures, which decomposes two stages; a dechlorination step below 330 0C and then a thermal decomposition of the hydrocarbon chain. This is due to the weaker C-Cl binding energy present in the molecule. Hydrochloride gas is produced from PVC as a result of dechlorination at temperatures below 300 0C. DKR 350 is a plastic mixture that is studied in this report, and this plastic waste stream can contain approximately 0.2-5% PVC. The process of dechlorination of plastic wastes is investigated in this report. As a result of understanding the parameters required to remove chlorides from a mixed plastic waste stream, an experimental setup was created to examine the viability of the process. The results were analysed and compared with relevant literature on PVC degradation to assess its efficiency. Overall, the methodology established by this report was unsuccessful in producing a practical result. However, the viability of the dechlorination process in mixed plastics wastes has been shown as a result of the 84.9% conversion of chlorides in the plastic from the initial mixture to other sources. As a result of this positive indication of the viability of the process, further testing was recommended based on lessons learned from the current report. Further, an improved test setup was suggested based on several recommendations explored as a result of findings from the experimental.Mechanical Engineering | Process and Energy Technolog

      What explains the pattern of public goods distribution across ethnic groups in the states of the former Soviet Union? In this dissertation, I seek to demonstrate how the unique pattern of nation-state formation in the former Soviet states interacts with other institutional legacies in a manner that differentiates it from other regions. Rather than the logic of “ethnic diversity deficit” applied in most analyses of the theme, I explain post-Soviet public goods provision through a logic of ethnic domination and its relationship to other salient features of sociopolitical organization, including informal social networks and ethnodemographic configurations. The unintended institutionalization of an enduring ethnic titular / non-titular binary combines with the Soviet legacy of informal social networks of access that are endemic throughout the region and structure state-society relations. Thus, I propose that Soviet institutional legacies determine both the supply and demand sides of public goods and service provision: ethnic titular political domination ensures preferential targeting to titular coethnics, while the continued significance of informal networks of access disproportionately allows elite and non-elite titulars to demand state resources successfully. I demonstrate the effects of this relationship in three empirical chapters. Analyzing large-N data from Kyrgyzstan, I show that ethnic Kyrgyz titulars are not only more positive than non-titulars in their evaluations of public goods provision in general, but also that more extensive integration into informal social networks exacerbates this intergroup distributive differentiation. My next chapter presents qualitative data collected during fieldwork in Kyrgyzstan and illustrates the causal mechanisms and grounded understandings of the previous chapter’s findings. The third empirical chapter presents an analysis of large-N data from eight post-Soviet countries in which I explore the extent to which individual coethnicity and coregionality with national leaders is predictive of public goods outcomes. As suggested by much existing research, the findings are dependent on the outcome one studies. Coethnicity and coregionality with national leaders is related to education outcomes in an additive fashion. However, there is no relationship coethnicity or coregionality and first year child survival. I find a more complex interactive relationship between the two explanatory variables and child immunization.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2021-08-01The student, Kyle Estes, accepted the attached license on 2019-07-08 at 10:06.The student, Kyle Estes, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2019-07-08 at 10:12.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2019-07-08 at 16:12.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #14188 on 2019-11-26 at 13:04:36Made available in DSpace on 2019-11-26T20:49:22Z (GMT).
