The Influences on Tokyo’s Post-War Marine Seafood Consumption Patterns
, 2007
"... Marine ecosystems are experiencing declines in fish stock. These declines relate to a number of factors, most important of which is over-fishing (Pauly & Alder 2005). Seafood demand, driven by population growth, human migration to coastal areas and rising incomes has lead to a total global suppl ..."

the 1940s. We use the ecological footprint and trophic level analyses to calculate the historical patterns of Tokyo’s seafood consumption over the last fifty years and relate these findings to increasing wealth, fisheries production and related policies in Japan and Tokyo. The paper has three main findings
Geography-informed Energy Conservation for Ad Hoc Routing
- ACM MOBICOM
, 2001
"... We introduce a geographical adaptive fidelity (GAF) algorithm that reduces energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks. GAF conserves energy by identifying nodes that are equivalent from a routing perspective and then turning off unnecessary nodes, keeping a constant level of routing fidelity. GA ..."

Is Consumption Growth Consistent with Intertemporal Optimization? Evidence for the Consumer Expenditure Survey
- Journal of Political Economy
, 1995
"... In this paper we show that some of the predictions of models of consumer intertemporal optimization are in line with the patterns of nondurable expenditure observed in U.S. household-level data. We propose a flexible specification of preferences that allows multi-ple commodities and yields empirical ..."

The nature of precautionary wealth
- Journal of Monetary Economics
, 1997
"... This paper uses the Panel Study of Income Dynamics to provide some of the first direct evidence that wealth is systematically higher for consumers with predictably greater income uncertainty. However, the apparent pattern of precautionary wealth is not consistent with a standard parameterization of ..."

Regional Preferences in the Spanish Meat and Seafood Consumption
"... Abstract. In the study of a geographically aggregated market, the choice of a representative household leads to consider the whole territory as a single, homogeneous one. However, there are reasons to believe that regional preference differences do exist when there are important cultural and climati ..."

The econometric analysis of separate demand systems of meat and seafood consumption for the aggregate Spain and for three regions, shows that differences
An Analysis of Power Consumption in a Smartphone.

, 2010
"... Abstract Mobile consumer-electronics devices, especially phones, are powered from batteries which are limited in size and therefore capacity. This implies that managing energy well is paramount in such devices. Good energy management requires a good understanding of where and how the energy is used ..."
