The Exact Theoretical Rational Expectations Monetary Aggregate
(Cambridge University Press, 2000-06-01)In aggregation theory, index numbers are judged relative to their ability to track the exact aggregator functions nested within the economy's structure. We compare two statistical index numbers—the Divisia monetary aggregate ... -
Editor's Preface to the Dialogue Series
(Cambridge University Press, 1999-03-01)This dialogue is the first to appear in Macroeconomic Dynamics. Other dialogues on topics of importance to macroeconomics will appear occasionally in this journal. Unlike interviews appearing in the MD Interview series, ... -
Editor's Preface to the Surveys Section
(Cambridge University Press, 1998-12-01)This interview with Wassily Leontief is the first to appear in Macroeconomic Dynamics. Other interviews of importance to the history of economic thought will appear occasionally in this journal. Since this journal prizes ... -

CAPM Risk Adjustment for Exact Aggregation Over Financial Assets
(Cambridge University Press, 1997-06-01)Barnett originated the Divisia monetary aggregates, which in continuous time exactly track any monetary aggregator function under perfect certainty. With user costs measuring the prices of the services of components, ... -
Editorial
(Cambridge University Press, 1997-01-01)Macroeconomics is at a crossroads. The call of real science is drawing it forward to a degree that is without precedent in the history of the field. But the field's origins are related to the exceptional policy relevance ... -
Gains from Synchronization
(Berkley Electronic Press, 2005-03-30)This paper investigates the transmission mechanisms of structural shocks and volatility between economies through trade links, and the effects of synchronization on business cycles. We investigate the transmission of outside ... -
Stabilization Policy as Bifurcation Selection Would Stabilization Policy Work if the Economy Really Were Unstable?
(Cambridge University Press, 2002-11-01)Taken literally, the concept of “stabilization policy” implicitly assumes that the macroeconomy is unstable without imposition of a policy. Hence, selection of a “stabilization policy” can be viewed as selection of a policy ... -
Stability Analysis of Continuous-Time Macroeconometic Systems
(De Gruyter, 1999-01-01)There has been increasing interest in continuous-time macroeconometric models. This research investigates stability of the Bergstrom, Nowman, and Wymer continuous-time model of the U.K. when system parameters change. This ... -
The Family Employment Awareness Training (FEAT): A Mixed-method Follow-up
(IOS Press, 2014-01-13)BACKGROUND: Although competitive employment (i.e., employment in community settings among peers without disabilities for minimum wage or higher) is associated with numerous benefits for individuals with disabilities ... -
First Generation Indian External Sector Reforms in Context
(National Law University, Jodhpur, India, 2013)India's first generation external sector reforms are a fascinating case study of emergence from a post-Independence socialist-style economy to the world’s largest free market democracy. Part I of this article reviews the ... -
Transcriptomic responses in mouse brain exposed to chronic excess of the neurotransmitter glutamate
(BioMed Central, 2010-06-07)Background: Increases during aging in extracellular levels of glutamate (Glu), the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, may be linked to chronic neurodegenerative diseases. Little is known about the molecular ... -
Genomic and biochemical approaches in the discovery of mechanisms for selective neuronal vulnerability to oxidative stress
(BioMed Central, 2009-02-19)Background: Oxidative stress (OS) is an important factor in brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases. Certain neurons in different brain regions exhibit selective vulnerability to OS. Currently little is known about the ... -
Toward epigenetic and gene regulation models of specific language impairment: looking for links among growth, genes, and impairments
(BioMed Central, 2012-11-24)Children with specific language impairment (SLI) are thought to have an inherited form of language impairment that spares other developmental domains. SLI shows strong heritability and recent linkage and association studies ... -
Ψ-RA: a parallel sparse index for genomic read alignment
(BioMed Central, 2011-07-27)Background Genomic read alignment involves mapping (exactly or approximately) short reads from a particular individual onto a pre-sequenced reference genome of the same species. Because all individuals of the same species ... -
Turmeric inhibits parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) secretion from human rheumatoid synoviocytes
(BioMed Central, 2012-06-12)Excessive production of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) by tumor-like synoviocytes contributes to joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Having previously demonstrated that curcuminoid-only and essential ... -
A novel scoring function for discriminating hyperthermophilic and mesophilic proteins with application to predicting relative thermostability of protein mutants
(BioMed Central, 2010-01-28)Background: The ability to design thermostable proteins is theoretically important and practically useful. Robust and accurate algorithms, however, remain elusive. One critical problem is the lack of reliable methods to ... -
Bioinformatics process management: information flow via a computational journal
(BioMed Central, 2007-12-03)This paper presents the Bioinformatics Computational Journal (BCJ), a framework for conducting and managing computational experiments in bioinformatics and computational biology. These experiments often involve series of ... -
Comparative analysis of remotely-sensed data products via ecological niche modeling of avian influenza case occurrences in Middle Eastern poultry.
(BioMed Central, 2011-03-28)Ecological niche modeling integrates known sites of occurrence of species or phenomena with data on environmental variation across landscapes to infer environmental spaces potentially inhabited (i.e., the ecological ... -
Identification of Properties Important to Protein Aggregation Using Feature Selection
(BioMed Central, 2013-10-28)Background: Protein aggregation is a significant problem in the biopharmaceutical industry (protein drug stability) and is associated medically with over 40 human diseases. Although a number of computational models have ...
