Geometrical Modeling of Non-Stationary Polarimetric Vehicular Radio Channels
2019
This paper presents a geometry-based statistical model (GBSM) of polarimetric wideband multipath radio channels for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. The proposed model captures the effects of depolarization caused by multipath propagation, and it also accounts for the non-stationary characteristics of wideband V2V channels. This is a novel feature, because the existing polarimetric channel models are built on the assumption that the channel is a wide-sense stationary random process. In the modeling framework described in this paper, the channel depolarization function is given by a linear transformation in the form of a simple rotation matrix. This linear transformation is transpare…
Evaluation of a Visual Tool for Early Patent Infringement Detection During Design
2019
Patent infringement detection usually implies research among documents in different forms, in both natural and unstructured language, often involving a lot of human resources and time. In order to ease this patent check process, we previously presented a visual tool to be used by designers themselves at any stage of the design process, providing them with useful and reliable information for deciding whether to steer their design away from potential patent infringements. In this work, we report on a usability study carried out on such a tool with 21 professional designers from industry in the field of mechanical engineering. The outcome of our study shows that our tool is very well accepted …
Differences in Immaterial Details: Dimensional Conversion and Its Implications for Protecting Digital Designs Under EU Design Law
2021
AbstractThe paper considers three main questions: the legal status of digital designs from the perspective of EU design law, whether the protection is tied to the reproduction of physical products, and whether the scope of protection covers dimensional conversion such as using a 3D design in 2D form or vice versa. There are two sets of views regarding dimensional conversion: the “abstract” and the “concrete” view. These two different attitudes towards the scope of protection influence the manner in which the protectability of digital designs is assessed. In the “abstract” protection, it would not matter whether a product only exists as a digital image and not as a physical shape. In the “co…
A legal and economic analysis of the concept of anticipatory breach under the CISG
2021
Contractual remedies are traditionally available after the breach of a contract, but can a party suspecting non-performance prior to the date of performance entitled to seek for remedies? The United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods (CISG), regulates the doctrine of anticipatory breach in Articles 71-73, outlining the circumstances in which an anticipatory breach is deemed to occur and the remedies available to the aggrieved party. The Convention entitles the innocent party to the right to suspend or avoid but it contains unambiguous terms in need for interpretation. Additionally, the doctrine of anticipatory breach begs the questions of economic efficiency, a fundamenta…
How Vulnerable is the Reaction Time Concealed Information Test to Faking?
2021
The reaction time-based Concealed Information Test (RT-CIT) can be used to detect information a suspect wishes to conceal. While it is often argued that it is easily faked, empirical research on its vulnerability to faking is scarce. In three experiments, we tested whether receiving faking instructions enables guilty participants to fake an innocent test outcome in an RT-CIT. In Experiment 1, when not using a response deadline, we found the RT-CIT to be vulnerable to faking (d = 1.06). Experiment 2 showed that when using a response deadline, faking was ineffective (d = −0.25). Critically, Experiment 3 replicated these findings within one between-subject design, showing again a faking effect…

CORRELATION OF LEGAL ASPECTS AND MARKETING TECHNIQUES IN THE GRANTING PROCESS OF PATENTS, TRADE MARKS AND COPYRIGHT IN ROMANIA, THE EUROPEAN COMMUNIT…
2012
The paper summarizes the mechanism for obtaining a patent and presents a clear picture of how the international bodies involved in the process of patenting of inventions and patent-pending isfunctioning. Explore, in a specific marketing vision, the ways to motivate and help inventors to patent their discoveries. Also investigates the reasons why some offices are receiving more patent applications than others, and the methods by which are able to analyze them in less time. Finally it is shown how, using marketing techniques, patent offices can streamline their work to support all the involved parties.
CURRENT ISSUESOFFISCAL CONTROLIN ROMANIA
2012
The main task of any tax administration is to collect the correct amount of taxes payable to the budget, with minimum costs for both government and taxpayers. Achieving this goal is possible only when there is an efficient and effective tax administration, which is based the procedures established and consistent management of each function. That is why the current paper addressed issues regarding the improvement of fiscal control in Romania.
Controlled-by-owner firms, mobility of capital and microeconomic profit rate maximization
1999
When they actively control the firm, owners select the firm that has the best profit rate if the hypothesis of mobility of capital is adopted: controlled-by-owner firms are profit-rate-maximizing when sleeping-owner firms are pure-profit-maximizing. Both types are compared in monopoly, in perfect competition, in classical or in mixed duopoly. Always, controlled-by-owner firms have a lower output than comparable sleeping-owner firms. It only takes a fixed coefficient of equity capital to do that price plays no role for controlled-by-owner firms in perfect competition; in duopoly, it only takes a similar condition plus a linear demand to do that reaction functions vanish.
