Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Causal Relationship between Trade, Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth in GreeceMelina Dritsaki, Chaido Dritsaki, Antonios AdamopoulosThis study investigates the relationship between Trade, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and economic growth in Greece over the period 1960-2002. The cointegration analysis suggested that there is a long-run equilibrium relationship. The results of the Granger causality test showed that there is a causal relationship between the examined variables. Economic growth, trade and FDI appear to be mutually reinforcing under … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 9,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of the TENs Program on the Greek EconomyParis Tsachouridis, Andreas CholopoulosThis is a short survey of the impact of the Trans-European Program on the Greek economy. Greece is a predominantly mountainous country and as such has never developed a dense transportation network grid. On the other hand, Greece is making an extensive use of European funding to modernize its infrastructures and this is expected to have a considerable impact on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 6,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExergoeconomic Analysis of a Refrigeration CycleDurriye Bilge, Galip TemirThe exergoeconomic theory is applied to a two stage vapour compression refrigeration cycle. An exergy-aided cost analysis, taking into account pressure drops and heat gain/loss for all of the components in the refrigeration system as well as the pipe connections, has been made. Exergoeconomic factors, showing whether the monetary expenditures mostly originate from capital investment and Operating and Maintenance (O&M) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChildren Perception on TV Advertisement: The Impact of Age, Gender and Parental InfluenceAhasanul Haque, Ali KhatibiThis study examined two components of understanding TV advertising: the recognition of the difference between programmes and commercials and the comprehension of advertising intent. ANOVA analyses were performed to assess the effect on age, gender, parent-child interaction and parental control over children of TV programme watching. Research found that majority of children aged between five and eight have some understanding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,357 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Causal Relationship between Inflation and Productivity: An Empirical Approach for RomaniaNikolaos DritsakisThis study attempts to analyze the relationship between the productivity and the inflation of a transition country of the European Union as Romania. For this purpose we use quarterly data since 1990: IV in 2003: I and the causality analysis, which is based on an error correction model. The results of the empirical analysis showed that there is a causal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInformation Provided by Accrual and Cash Flow Measures in Determining Firms’ Performance: Malaysian EvidenceNorita Mohd Nasir, Shamsul Nahar AbdullahAccrual and cash flow measures have been argued to be able to evaluate firms’ performance, although the results are inconclusive throughout countries and time. This study examined the accrual and cash flow measures independently and jointly among Malaysian firms. The study predicted that the low cash flow subgroups (high income to cash flow firms) would show better results in operating, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Iterative Algorithms with Accelerate Convergence for Solving Implicit Difference EquationsQing-Fu Liu, Wei-Jun Zhong, Mancho ManevThis study focuses on the solution of implicit difference equations, which are very difficult to compute in parallel for the diffusion equation. For improving the convergence rates and the properties of gradual-approach convergence of Segment-Classic-Implicit-Iterative (SCII) and Segment-Crank-Nicolson-Iterative (SCNI) algorithms realizing efficient iterative computation in parallel by segmenting grid domains, SCII and SCNI algorithms with accelerated convergence are studied and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStandard Abundance Distribution of Elements in the Universe and Magic Numbers with Boltzmann ProbabilityFrederick Osman, Heinrich HoraThe decay of the standard abundance distribution of elements in the Universe for heavy elements has well-know maxima near magic numbers of the nuclear shell model and deep minima in between. Combining the maxima as a generation probability N (Z) on the proton number Z of the nuclides, a Boltzmann probability shows decay N (Z) = N’ exp (-Z/Z’). The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRevisiting the Unit Root Hypothesis and Structural Break: Asia and Emerging Economies Foreign Exchange MarketsChristopher Gan, Sirimon Treepongkaruna, Hue Hwa Au YongThis study examines the stationary of ten Asian and for emerging Foreign Exchange (FX) rates during the 1990s. The paper employs the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root test to the following FX rates: Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) Japanese Yen (JPY), South Korean won (KRW) new Taiwan dollar (TWN), Chinese Renminbl (CHR), Indonesia Rupiah (IDR), Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), Singapore Dollar (SGD), … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmall Business Critical Success/Failure Factors In Developing Economies: Some Evidences From BotswanaZelealem T. Temtime, J. PansiriAlthough the discovery of diamond has propelled Botswana from one of the poorest countries in 1966 to its current economic status as a middle-income country, the country still faces the problems of economic diversification, employment creation, income generation and distribution and poverty alleviation. Governmental and non- Governmental organizations have put many efforts on the development of small and medium Enterprises … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 9,322 accessesView PDFCite
