  1. 1. Vertical Trade

    Författare :Anna Andersson; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Trade in intermediate inputs; fragmentation; private standards; rules of origin; duration;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three separate papers. They are all empirical papers that examine how fragmentation of production processes and global value chains have affected international trade patterns. The first paper focuses on how private standards in the increasingly geographically fragmented food sector affect firm-import behaviour. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Studies on design automation of analog circuits : performance metrics

    Författare :Robert Hägglund; Sven Mattisson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The trend of today is to integrate large systems containing analog and digital circuits on a single chip. This has the advantages of decreased power consumption and cost. In order to reduce the design time for these systems, efficient design automation tools are required. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Essays on International Trade : Theory and Evidence on the Determinants and Implications of Firms' Import Behaviour

    Författare :Evangelia Pateli; Rikard Forslid; Anders Åkerman; Philippe Martin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; international trade; extensive margins of trade; international sourcing; hierarchical sorting; information spillovers; devaluations; intermediate import dependence; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aspires to further contribute to our understanding of both the determinants as well as the implications of intermediate goods trade. Faced with intensifying global competition, firms are increasingly developing their production process and their sourcing strategies beyond national borders in order to take advantage of lower costs, superior quality and technological advances.

  5. 4. Energy Saving vs. Performance: Trade-offs in Optical Networks

    Författare :Pawel Wiatr; Paolo Monti; Josep Solé-Pareta; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy-efficiency; optical networks; RWA; side-effects; device reliability performance; network performance; operational cost; benefits; loss; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Sammanfattning : The energy consumption of communication networks is continuously growing. Many energy saving approaches have been proposed at the device, system, and network level. The most promising way to address this problem is to utilize photonic technologies as much as possible thanks to their low energy consumption per bit performance. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Trade, Innovation, and Gender

    Författare :Josefin Videnord; Oskar Nordström Skans; Teodora Borota Milicevic; Andreas Moxnes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; International Trade; Gender Wage Gap; Export; Import; R D; Innovation; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : Essay I (with Olga Lark): We examine whether exposure to gender inequality at export destinations affects the gender wage gap in exporting firms. We motivate the analysis through a stylized model where wages depend on worker productivity, and men have a comparative advantage when trading with gender-unequal countries due to customer discrimination.
