Spatial sciences/ surveying student BEB801 project Capstone Mini-Conference 2011
No full textProject as a Capstone Learning Unit: Courses of the QUT Faculty of BEE seek to enable students to practice as professionals in their respective disciplines. A major part of such practice is the instigation, management,monitoring, and reporting on an urban development project. \ud
\ud
This unit offers the student a capstone learning experience near the end of their fourth year of undergraduate study.\ud
Expose the student to a set of integrated activities, each building upon the preceding, and culminating in a 'completed' project.\ud
\ud
Students apply skills and knowledge attained earlier in the course and develop new abilities for application to a real-world problem, industry or research based, to simulate the design, development and management of a project solution. These 10-12minute seminar presentations comprise the mini-conference event that are of benefit to the wider surveying and spatial science industry
Asset pricing in an inefficient market
No full textA number of recent studies suggest that the hypothesis of informationally efficient capital markets may be incorrect. This has led Shiller [19] to propose integrating modern financial theory with behavioural alternatives. Whether markets are informationally efficient or not, valid models of asset pricing must explain the observed time series behaviour of changes in speculative prices. It is shown that this requirement severely restricts the class of possible models of asset pricing in an informationally inefficient capital market. © 1990
Transitory real-time property rights and exchange intellectual property
No full textAmerican exchanges own the price quotations they generate. Access to real-time price information is highly valued by most market participants. This enables exchanges to exact royalties from the sale of such market information. In this sense, an exchange's ownership of its price quotations is akin to owning a property right in a perishable commodity (i.e.,fresh market price quotations) that is most valuable for only a transitory or limited period of time. The implications of exchange ownership of price data extend beyond financial markets. Recently, Woodard (2000) has noted that some internet auction operators have asserted ownership over the prices they generate. This study reviews the legal origin and nature of the property right to price quotations generated on U.S. futures exchanges and assesses whether exchange ownership should be transitory. The legal basis for transitory real-time (real and personal) property rights is discussed and the economic implications are considered. (C) 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc
