Les relations Union européenne-Inde
En ce début de XXIe siècle, l'Inde s'impose chaque année un peu plus comme une nation incontournable dans le jeu des puissances. Etat le plus peuplé du monde à la croissance économique vertigineuse, acteur militaire de premier plan en devenir, elle suit une trajectoire de développement qui rappelle celle d'autres pays d'Asie avant elle, comme le Japon, puis les "Dragons" du Sud-Est et plus récemment la Chine. L'Inde pâtit néanmoins d'une pauvreté endémique, d'un secteur informel écrasant dans son économie et d'une capacité d'innovation technologique en-deçà de ses concurrents. L'Union européenne, de son côté, tente d'exister dans l'ombre grandissante des Etats-Unis et de ...

Actores de protagonismo inverso. La acción exterior de España y Francia en los ochenta
Los estudios internacionales han cobrado un interés inusitado en los últimos años. La Transición española, que cuenta ya con una importante historiografía, sigue pendiente, sin embargo, de completar el tratamiento de la parcela exterior, un asunto que ha pasado a ser tema estrella después de años de casi invisibilidad. La cronología del periodo está condicionada por la Transición exterior, que no se culminaría hasta la normalización diplomática española con la incorporación a las Comunidades Europeas y la integración en la Alianza Atlántica. Todo ello fue posible después de que los primeros Gobiernos democráticos reforzaran el peso internacional del Estado, modernizaran la acción exterior y desarrollaran una nueva diplomacia estructural pragmática, realista y multilateral. Por desgracia, la historiografía española sobre las relaciones España-Francia ha sido víctima de una preeminencia casi estructural de las lecturas en clave nacional, lo que esta publicación pretende contribuir a cambiar. La atención al caso francés viene dada por la enorme importancia que el vecino del norte jugó en aquel orden internacional con el que se puso fin a la guerra fría.
Dynamic Incentives for Optimal Control of Competitive Power Systems
This work presents a real-time dynamic pricing framework for future electricity markets. Deduced by first-principles analysis of physical, economic, and communication constraints within the power system, the proposed feedback control mechanism ensures both closed-loop system stability and economic efficiency at any given time. The resulting price signals are able to incentivize competitive market participants to eliminate spatio-temporal shortages in power supply quickly and purposively.
Advances in Wind Power
Today's wind energy industry is at a crossroads. Global economic instability has threatened or eliminated many financial incentives that have been important to the development of specific markets. Now more than ever, this essential element of the world energy mosaic will require innovative research and strategic collaborations to bolster the industry as it moves forward. This text details topics fundamental to the efficient operation of modern commercial farms and highlights advanced research that will enable next-generation wind energy technologies. The book is organized into three sections, Inflow and Wake Influences on Turbine Performance, Turbine Structural Response, and Power Conversion, Control and Integration. In addition to fundamental concepts, the reader will be exposed to comprehensive treatments of topics like wake dynamics, analysis of complex turbine blades, and power electronics in small-scale wind turbine systems.
The Elgar Companion to the European Union
Constituting a major contribution to literature on the EU, this comprehensive Companion analyses the structure and value of the EU, capturing the normality of its politics alongside crises and political breakdown.
Semiconductor Research
The book describes the fundamentals, latest developments and use of key experimental techniques for semiconductor research. It explains the application potential of various analytical methods and discusses the opportunities to apply particular analytical techniques to study novel semiconductor compounds, such as dilute nitride alloys. The emphasis is on the technique rather than on the particular system studied.
Philosophical Issues in Tourism
The aim of this book is to bridge the disciplines of philosophy and tourism and to provide an analysis and application of philosophical issues of tourism. In doing so this book focuses on three key areas of knowledge, aesthetics and values.
Data Science Ethics
Data science ethics is all about what is right and wrong when conducting data science. Data science has so far been primarily used for positive outcomes for businesses and society. However, just as with any technology, data science has also come with some negative consequences: an increase of privacy invasion, data-driven discrimination against sensitive groups, and decision making by complex models without explanations. While data scientists and business managers are not inherently unethical, they are not trained to weigh the ethical considerations that come from their work - Data Science Ethics addresses this increasingly significant gap and highlights different concepts and techniques tha...
Machine Learning and Data Sciences for Financial Markets
Leveraging the research efforts of more than sixty experts in the area, this book reviews cutting-edge practices in machine learning for financial markets. Instead of seeing machine learning as a new field, the authors explore the connection between knowledge developed by quantitative finance over the past forty years and techniques generated by the current revolution driven by data sciences and artificial intelligence. The text is structured around three main areas: 'Interactions with investors and asset owners,' which covers robo-advisors and price formation; 'Risk intermediation,' which discusses derivative hedging, portfolio construction, and machine learning for dynamic optimization; and 'Connections with the real economy,' which explores nowcasting, alternative data, and ethics of algorithms. Accessible to a wide audience, this invaluable resource will allow practitioners to include machine learning driven techniques in their day-to-day quantitative practices, while students will build intuition and come to appreciate the technical tools and motivation for the theory.
