A model of growth through creative destruction
, 1990
"... This paper develops a model based on Schumpeter's process of creative destruction. It departs from existing models of endogeneous growth in emphasizing obsolescence of old technologies induced by the accumulation of knowledge and the resulting process or industrial innovations. This has both ..."

a tendency for laissez-faire economies to generate too many innovations, i.e too much growth. This "business-stealing" effect is partly compensated by the fact that innovations tend to be too small under laissez-faire. The model possesses a unique balanced growth equilibrium in which
Valgrind: A framework for heavyweight dynamic binary instrumentation
- In Proceedings of the 2007 Programming Language Design and Implementation Conference
, 2007
"... Dynamic binary instrumentation (DBI) frameworks make it easy to build dynamic binary analysis (DBA) tools such as checkers and profilers. Much of the focus on DBI frameworks has been on performance; little attention has been paid to their capabilities. As a result, we believe the potential of DBI ha ..."

Deformable models in medical image analysis: A survey
- Medical Image Analysis
, 1996
"... This article surveys deformable models, a promising and vigorously researched computer-assisted medical image analysis technique. Among model-based techniques, deformable models offer a unique and powerful approach to image analysis that combines geometry, physics, and approximation theory. They hav ..."

Culture and the self: Implications for cognition, emotion, and motivation
- Psychological Review
, 1991
"... People in different cultures have strikingly different construals of the self, of others, and of the interdependence of the 2. These construals can influence, and in many cases determine, the very nature of individual experience, including cognition, emotion, and motivation. Many Asian cultures have ..."

. In contrast, individuals seek to maintain their independence from others by attending to the self and by discovering and expressing their unique inner attributes. As proposed herein, these construals are even more powerful than previously imagined. Theories of the self from both psychology and anthropology
Geodesic Active Contours
, 1997
"... A novel scheme for the detection of object boundaries is presented. The technique is based on active contours evolving in time according to intrinsic geometric measures of the image. The evolving contours naturally split and merge, allowing the simultaneous detection of several objects and both in ..."

. Formal results concerning existence, uniqueness, stability, and correctness of the evolution are presented as well. The scheme was implemented using an efficient algorithm for curve evolution. Experimental results of applying the scheme to real images including objects with holes and medical data imagery
Framing: toward clarification of a fractured paradigm’’,
- Journal of Communication
, 1993
"... In response to the proposition that communication lacks disciplinary status because of deficient core knowledge, I propose that we turn an ostensible weakness into a strength. We should identify our mission as bringing together insights and theories that would otherwise remain scattered in other di ..."

Whatever its specific use, the concept of framing consistently offers a way to describe the power of a communicating
PAMAS -- Power Aware Multi-Access protocol with Signalling for Ad Hoc Networks
, 1998
"... In this paper we develop a new multiaccess protocol for ad hoc radio networks. The protocol is based on the original MACA protocol with the adition of a separate signalling channel. The unique feature of our protocol is that it conserves battery power at nodes by intelligently powering off nodes t ..."

A Transmission Control Scheme for Media Access in Sensor Networks
, 2001
"... We study the problem of media access control in the novel regime of sensor networks, where unique application behavior and tight constraints in computation power, storage, energy resources, and radio technology have shaped this design space to be very different from that found in traditional mobile ..."

The Determinants of Credit Spread Changes.

"... ABSTRACT Using dealer's quotes and transactions prices on straight industrial bonds, we investigate the determinants of credit spread changes. Variables that should in theory determine credit spread changes have rather limited explanatory power. Further, the residuals from this regression are ..."

On the power of unique 2-prover 1-round games
- In Proceedings of the 34th Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing
, 2002
"... ABSTRACT A 2-prover game is called unique if the answer of one prover uniquely determines the answer of the second prover and vice versa (we implicitly assume games to be one round games). The value of a 2-prover game is the maximum acceptance probability of the verifier over all the prover strategi ..."

We make the following conjecture regarding the power of unique 2-prover games, which we call the Unique Games Conjecture: The Unique Games Conjecture: For arbitrarily small constants i; ffi? 0, there exists a constant k = k(i; ffi) such that it is NP-hard to determine whether a unique 2-prover
