The Baltic challenge and Euro-area entry. Bruegel Policy Contribution 2009/13, November 2009
Get PDFResident Fellow Zsolt Darvas takes a look at the issue of the Baltic states - Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania - and the challenges facing those three countries in the aftermath of the financial crisis. He argues that because it is in the broader European interest to prevent a collapse in the Baltics, the best option is immediate euro entry at a suitable exchange rate supported by appropriate resolution in order to manage the resulting debt overhang. However, there seems to be no legal basis for this under the current euro accession criteria. Furthermore, the economic foundations of the criteria are fundamentally flawed, as euro-area members continue to violate the criteria while the EU's expansion to 27 members has made the criteria tougher for new member states to meet themselves. Ultimately, the European Council has the ability to reform the criteria without a formal treaty change. The Council should do so, the author argues, and allow for more meaningful benchmarks for all future euro-area applicants

Building Digital Commons through Open Access Management of Copyright-Related Rights
Get PDFThis paper seeks to explore how the implementation of open access licences onto recordings and other forms of digital performance of creative works which have entered the public domain, complements the notion of digital commons. The paper starts from the assumption that there are types of creative works (i.e. music works, theatre plays, etc) whose effective dedication to the public domain for the benefit of the public at large would never reach the full status of “commons” if digitised performances of these works were not disseminated under open access licences (e.g., Creative Commons’). The introduction draws on the assumption that creative works which give rise to a huge stock of the public domain in certain fields of creativity would not become available to the public in digital formats (at least for free) without the necessary intermediation of performers and producers of audio and video recordings. From this perspective, there would be no lawful way for the public at large to enjoy for free digital items embodying creative works such as a Bach’s suite, a Brahms’s symphony or a Shakespeare’s play, if certain kinds of music and theatre performers and/or recording producers did not release their digital performances and recordings using open access licences. The paper seeks to explain why the implementation of these licences to the management of copyright-related rights for the achievement of an effective dedication of certain works in the public domain to the digital commons is of very high relevance. It is argued that, at least in civil law (i.e. droit d’auteur) systems, newly created works of art are copyright protected by default and fall into the public domain only after expiration of the protection term of 70 years post mortem autoris. Unlike U.S. law, droit d’auteur systems do not seem to endorse and confer validity upon copyright licences which aim to make new works available in the public domain immediately, through a relinquishment in perpetuity of all present and future rights under copyright law by the author. By considering some examples of digital platforms making use of open access licences for the dissemination of music works adopted by both music performers and recording producers, the paper shows that, as European digital copyright laws stand, the mostly evident and fruitful use of open access licences for the building of digital commons in the field of creative works concern old works whose copyright protection is expired and whose copying, dissemination and, possibly, re-use has been preventively authorised on the grounds of a “copyleft” licence. The paper concludes that public bodies and other entities that institutionally pursue the policy objective of building platforms and repositories of digital commons should promote the implementation of open access licences by holders of copyright-related rights (e.g., educational institutions, young performers and ensembles, virtual recording labels, etc) and provide incentives to make their digital works available to the public for purposes other than that of making an immediate profit from the sale/licensing of digitised items
An Open Labelled Double Arm Non-Randomised Phase II Clinical Trial, to Compare the Efficacy of Varma Manipulation with Uzhignai Kiyazham (Internal) and Piratharani Ennai (External) in the treatment of Pidari Vatham

System Safety Analysis for Critical System Applications Using Bayesian Networks
No full textAbstractSafety Assessment (SA) is a well-established process for assuring the safety and reliability of critical systems. It uses probabilistic analysis to provide precise measures about the safety requirements of a system. This research work introduces SA into safety critical systems like unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) that have prominent roles in both the commercial and military aerospace industries. The absence of thinking, observing, reacting and decision making pilot reduces the capability of UAVs to manage adverse situations such as faults and failures. There are number of various sensors in UAV, any major faults or failures in such critical sensors affect the total functionality of the system and hence will make the system unsafe. So for safety analysis of UAV here the functionality of different sensors is considered. The goal is to monitor the safety critical sensor outputs and ensure successful performance of UAV sensors using Bayesian Networks (BN), and this is implemented using the software BayesiaLab 5.4.3 DE. Simulation results comprise the influence analysis on the system safety by the sensor functionality modes and the total precision of the network using samples
