Mexico's Free Trade Agreements - NAFTA and the EU-Mexico FTA in comparison
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: 1,0, Jönköping International Business School, course: Economics, language: English, abstract: Mexico has concluded various free trade agreements over the last decade, with NAFTA and the EU-Mexico FTA being the most important ones. In this paper, the effect of both agreements on bilateral trade is presented through descriptive statistics on the one hand, and by applying a time series analysis in the form of an export and import demand function on the other.

Transactions on Computational Collective Intelligence XXVIII
These transactions publish research in computer-based methods of computational collective intelligence (CCI) and their applications in a wide range of fields such as the semantic Web, social networks, and multi-agent systems. TCCI strives to cover new methodological, theoretical and practical aspects of CCI understood as the form of intelligence that emerges from the collaboration and competition of many individuals (artificial and/or natural). The application of multiple computational intelligence technologies, such as fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, neural systems, consensus theory, etc., aims to support human and other collective intelligence and to create new forms of CCI in natural and/or artificial systems. This twenty-eight issue is a special issue with 11 selected papers from the International Conference on Agents and Artificial Intelligence, ICAART 2016 and 2017 editions.

How Insights from Moral Psychology and Character Research can aid Development Cooperation
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Politics - Topic: International development, Birkbeck, University of London (Birkbeck), course: BA Philosophy, language: English, abstract: This thesis explores the integration of insights from moral psychology and moral character research into Official Development Aid (ODA) allocation criteria, arguing for its potential to enhance the moral foundations of development cooperation and improve aid effectiveness. Despite the widespread acknowledgment of geopolitical interests and the evolution of aid modalities, the discussion on aid allocation has largely overlooked moral considerations. By assuming a shift towards non-political allocation mech...
Organic Service-Level Management in Service-Oriented Environments
Dynamic service-oriented environments (SOEs) are characterised by a large number of heterogeneous service components that are expected to support the business as a whole. The present work provides a negotiation-based approach to facilitate automated and multi-level service-level management in an SOE, where each component autonomously arranges its contribution to the whole operational goals. Evaluation experiments have shown an increased responsiveness and stability of an SOE in case of changes.
