Measuring the contribution of each author of a multi-author paper has been a long standing concern. As a possible solution to this, we propose a list of intellectual activities and logistic support activities that might be involved in the production of a research paper. We then develop a quantitative approach to estimate an author's relative in

This paper aims to empirically examine the degree of cointegration among ASEAN+3 money markets in order to determine and adopt remedial actions pursuant to vulnerabilities in the region’s money markets that indicate an inability to prevent possible financial crises. In order to validate vulnerabilities, this paper investigates the degree to which

This paper aims to investigate the nexus between financial integration and the real economy in ASEAN + 3 economies based on the concept of Solow-Growth Model. The equity indices as a proxy for financial markets are collected from each ASEAN + 3 members and are segmented between two periods; before and after the financial cooperation agreement perio

The present invention relates to an exhaust gas reforming system (1) for providing hydrogen gas as fuel additive to an internal combustion engine (2) comprising a reformer (3) having a first zone (3a) for mixing the exhaust gas and steam, and a second zone (3b) for generating reformed hydrogen gas and comprising a catalyst (4) having a composition

Cryptosporidium infection is a major problem in neonatal ruminants. Cryptosporidium is a zoonotic small protozoan parasite (4-6µm) that inhabit microvillus border of epithelium mucosal in many vertebrates including livestock. Cryptosporidium spp. is known as one of the most common water and foodborne diseases. It is a common cause diarrhea in huma

This study attempts to investigate the efficiency of Islamic banks in Indonesia and its determinants over the period of 2004-2014. Eleven full Islamic banks were selected for the sample. This study employs the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in first stage of the analysis based on two inputs (fixed assets and deposits) and one output (financing inc

The future generations of mobile wireless systems such as the 5G technology are expected to be available due to huge demand on network capacity, better end-to-end performance, high mobility and high data rates. Inter-cell interference (ICI) management is one of the paramount issues that should be concerned in multi-tier Heterogeneous Networks (HetN

In recent years, the utility grid system is essential for the power transmission and distribution system because it is reliable, gives low harmonic distortion, has proper phase synchronization and environment-friendly. PWM based phase synchronous invert systems are generally utilized in the high-efficiency energy supply, long distance transmission

A microgrid is a clear energy system consisting of demand management, storage, generation system and loads which are capable of operating in parallel or independently with the main power grid. There are some issues in the inverter circuit design which are, high frequency switching loss and noise. In addition, an electrostatic generator generates hi

Nowadays, microgrid system technology is becoming popular for small area power management systems. It is essential to be less harmonic-distortion and high efficiency of the inverter for microgrid applications. Pulse width modulation (PWM) controller is a conventional switching control technique which is suitable to use in the microgrid connected po
