Agri-food Trade Specialisation Pattern in the New EU Member States
No full textThe paper analyses development of agri-food trade specialisation pattern in eight EU Member States of the 2004 and 2007 enlargements (NMS) during the period 2000 – 2005. Over the period analysed, the NMS were not able to hold trade positions in the most competitive commodities, but on the other hand, positions of a number of previously uncompetitive commodities improved. We show convergence of dynamism of agri-food trade specialisation across NMS in trade with the partners/groupings investigated.agri-food trade, specialisation, EU Member States of 2004 and 2007 enlargements, International Relations/Trade,

Dissertatio inauguralis of Serbian poet Laza Kostić: 'De legibus serbicis Stephani Uros Dusan'
No full textOn the basis of the archival material he recently discovered, the author provides the answer to the question he asked in his recently published paper: 'Defense of doctorate by Serbian poet Laza Kostić in Pest in 1866: Dissertatio or Theses?' By analyzing the previously unknown contents of Kostić's doctoral diploma and original records from his doctoral examinations at the Royal University in Pest (1864-1866), the author concludes that Laza Kostić was awarded the title of 'Doctor of General Law', both civil and canonical (doctor universi iuris, utriusque iuris), on the basis of defending the work of a smaller volume 'Theses e(x) scientiis juridicis et politicis', but also by the presentation of dissertatio inauguralis called 'De legibus serbicis Stephani Uros Dusan'. The author believes that this information significantly complements our knowledge of the study of Dušan's legislation in the mid-nineteenth century and enables us to better understand the overall extent of Serbian cultural elite in Hungary at that time
Szerbia államiságának kezdetei
No full textThe author describes the rising of the constitutionalism of Serbia in this paper. First he introduces the Slavic peoples and nations. The next chapters contain the history of the development of the uniform Serbian state. The author writes the political biography of the most important Serbian kings like Stefan Nemanja and Stefan Dusan "the Great". Nemanja established the state and the dynasty of the Nemanjics in the 12'h century. The golden age of the kingdom was in the middle of the le century during the rule of Stefan Dusan who became an emperor in 1346. After his death the Serbian Empire fell into pieces. The author pays attention on the legislation, the law and the jurisdiction of the state as well. Finally the Serbian Kingdom was occupied by the Turkish Empire in the 15" century
Differential games and applications to counter-terrorism
No full textThe application of dynamic games to the study of terrorism has the potential to provide insight for policymakers on the behavior of terrorists and inform them how best response to terror threats. We studied several applications of differential games to counter-terrorism and analyzed the usefulness of each approach. We also discussed possible future research topics.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2018-05-01The student, John Nguyen, accepted the attached license on 2016-04-19 at 11:33.The student, John Nguyen, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2016-04-19 at 11:40.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2016-04-19 at 15:02.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9336 on 2016-07-07 at 13:50:06Made available in DSpace on 2016-07-07T20:27:45Z (GMT).

Silicon Photonics for Next-Generation Optical Processing and Communications
No full textThe rapid growth of transistor and fiber-optic technologies has brought unprecedented advancements in computing and telecommunications. While fiber-optics are poised to grow in speed this year, growth in computing power continues to slow down as the limits of transistor downscaling are approached. This has given rise to the growing field of silicon photonics, where the well-established microelectronic fabrication process is being adapted to create integrated devices that bridge the electronic and optical domains for large performance gains in data centers and high-performance computers. However, the inherent cost of switching between the two domains, and the fact that much of on-chip data transfer is still carried out by low-speed, high-power electronics, are problems that scale with the growing global demand for bandwidth. In this thesis, a novel optoelectronic computing logic architecture based on the silicon photonics platform is presented. This architecture combines the best of optical data transfer and electronic control for the highest level of throughput presented in the literature— presenting a promising option for future, "Beyond Moore" computing and processing. The main driver of this architecture is the silicon microdisk modulator, which achieves the best combination of energy efficiency, operating speed/bandwidth, compactness, and cost of all previously demonstrated optoelectronic processing devices. New configurations of the microdisk modulator are introduced to further improve the performance, not just for optical logic, but for all optical processing and communications applications. One of these applications is a novel on-chip optical communications circuit, presented in this thesis, that achieves ultrahigh-bandwidth-density through efficient microdisk-based design. As integrated photonic circuits like these become more complex, with hundreds or thousands of components on the chip, the design process becomes lengthier and more expensive. Even for small circuits, like those presented in this work, the time taken from design to characterization is delayed by having to design components secondary to the main devices (e.g., for coupling light into the chip). As the final part of this work, a machine learning based photonic device modeller is created to accelerate the photonic simulation and design process by multiple orders of magnitude, with minimal input from the designer

JNP Zbor and Serbian orthodoxy
No full textIn this article the author researches the relationship between the Yugoslav National Movement Zbor and Serbian Orthodoxy. In the first part of the article he gives a short historical review of Ljoic's biography and history of the JNP Zbor. Thus, the theme is situated in historical context. In the second part of the article the author treats the Ljotic's relations, as a founder, president, leader and main ideologist of Zbor, with Serbian Orthodoxy and institution of the Serbian Orthodox Church. Special emphasis is on Ljotic's personal religiousness. In the last part the author researches influence of Orthodoxy upon JNP Zbor as an organization and ties between Zbor and the Serbian Orthodox Church.</jats:p
