Aid for trade policy in developing and least developed countries: A GTAP simulation analysis
2011
Recent global initiatives on debt relief and development assistance call for increasing aid for trade to the poorest countries. We apply a multi-country computable general equilibrium model, to analyze if aid for trade offers the possibility that, instead of the developing and least developed countries’ being worse off—as so many were as the result of the last round of trade negotiations—they will actually be better off. Alternative aid for trade scenarios have been evaluated in terms of effectiveness and equity. Our findings show that aid for trade policies expand trade and alleviate inequalities. The developing and least developed countries will benefit mainly from aid for trade assistanc…
Estimation of pollutant emissions from road traffic by image processing techniques. A case study in a suburban area
2013
This paper suggests a methodology based on the image processing technique able to automatically calculate the vehicle traffic and its components (light vehicles, heavy vehicles and motorcycles). The method also allows to evaluate instant vehicle speeds and, where necessary, to rebuild vehicle trajectories. Traffic data obtained through the procedure described below (capacities and speeds) can be also usefully applied to estimate pollutant emissions from vehicle traffic per year; therefore, the suggested method employs the algorithms defined with CORINAIR procedures, implemented in Copert 4 software. In order to evaluate how effective is the methodology, an experiment has been carried out in…
Super-Resolution Images Methodology Applied to UAV Datasets to Road Pavement Monitoring
2022
The increasingly widespread use of smartphones as real cameras on drones has allowed an ever-greater development of several algorithms to improve the image’s refinement. Although the latest generations of drone cameras let the user achieve high resolution images, the large number of pixels to be processed and the acquisitions from multiple lengths for stereo-view often fail to guarantee satisfactory results. In particular, high flight altitudes strongly impact the accuracy, and result in images which are undefined or blurry. This is not acceptable in the field of road pavement monitoring. In that case, the conventional algorithms used for the image resolution conversion, such as the bilinea…

Achievement of thermotolerance through hsps phosphorylation in sea urchin embryos.
1995
TPA treatment of sea urchin embryos is able to induce thermotolerance. Evidence is provided that TPA treatment induces phosphorylation of a constitutive stress protein of 38 KDa.
Apoptosis in sea urchin embryos.
1997
Abstract It is demonstrated by DNA electrophoresis analysis, morphological observations and TdT in situ reaction, that Paracentrotus embryos if treated with TPA plus heat undergo an apoptotic reaction. Indication is also obtained that non treated embryos undergo spontaneous apoptosis at the early pluteus stage, expecially in the districts of arms and intestine. The possible meaning of this latter observation is discussed.
Impacto de los acuerdos comerciales preferenciales en un contexto de competencia imperfecta
2015
Los primeros países firmantes del GATT se basaron en teorías económicas clásicas y neo-clásicas abogando por las ventajas del libre comercio multilateral. Si bien en el 60º aniversario del GATT, la OMC puede hacer alarde de una reducción notable de barreras al comercio, hace en cambio un balance menos positivo de los avances del multilateralismo a escala global. En efecto, el aumento exponencial del comercio se produjo esencialmente en el marco de acuerdos comerciales regionales y mayoritariamente en beneficio de países industrializados, con poca redistribución de riquezas y tecnología entre países del Norte y países del Sur. Ese fenómeno de regionalización acelerado ha llegado a tales prop…
