    Notes: Summary Clofibrate inhibits the synthesis of adrenal steroids when administered in vitro. In the present study the effect in vivo of clofibrate on adrenal steroid secretion has been investigated. Basal levels of plasma progesterone, corticosterone, aldosterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, 11-deoxycortisol, cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate and dehydroepiandrosterone, and their response to ACTH 1 mg im, were not reduced by chronic administration of clofibrate 2 g per day p.o. for 8 to 34 days to 6 hyperlipidaemic men.

    Notes: This paper is a survey of recent contributions to, and developments of, the relationship between outsourcing, efficiency and productivity growth in manufacturing and services. The objective is to provide a thorough and up–to–date survey that provides a significant discussion on data, as well as on the core methods of measuring efficiency and productivity. First, the readers are introduced to the measurement of partial and total factor productivity growth. Different parametric and non–parametric approaches to the productivity measurement in the context of static, dynamic and firm–specific modelling are discussed. Second, we survey the econometric approach to efficiency analysis. The issues of modelling, distributional assumptions and estimation methods are discussed assuming that cross–sectional or panel data are available. Third, the relationship between outsourcing and productivity growth in manufacturing and services is discussed. The correspondence between a number of hypotheses and empirical findings are examined. Examples of varieties of relevant empirical applications, their findings and implications are presented. Fourth, measurement of inputs and outputs in manufacturing and services are discussed. Finally, to promote useful research, a number of factors important to the analysis of outsourcing, efficiency and productivity growth in the service sector are summarised.

    Notes: This paper investigates the process of adjustment in employment. A dynamic model is applied to a panel of six Tunisian manufacturing industries observed over a period of 25 years, from 1971 to 1996. Industries are assumed to adjust their labor inputs toward a desired level. A labor requirement function is specified in terms of observable variables used to model the desired level of labor. The adjustment process is both industry-specific, as well as time-specific, and is expressed in terms of factors affecting the speed of adjustment. The empirical results show that, in the long run, employment demands respond greatest to output, followed by changes in capital stock, and least by wages. Over time, the speed of adjustment in employment and the degree of labor-use efficiency show large variations among the industries.

    Notes: In this article we present two composite indices of globalization. The first is based on the Kearney/Foreign Policy magazine and the second is obtained from principal component analysis. They indicate which countries have become most global and show how globalization has developed over time. The indices are composed of four components: economic integration, personal contact, technology and political engagement, each generated from a number of variables. A breakdown of the index into major components provides possibilities to identify sources of globalization and associate it with economic policy measures. The empirical results show that a low rank in the globalization process is due to political and personal factors with limited possibility for the developing countries to affect. The high ranked developed countries share similar patterns in distribution of various components.

    Notes: Abstract We have successfully synthesized and optimized a range of copolymers of 2,4-dimethylstyrene and 3/4-chloromethylstyrene (vinyl benzyl chloride, VBC) as high-performance single-stage-crosslinking electron-beam resists. The formulations were synthesized by a reproducible free-radical-initiated solution polymerization technique which has the merit of simplicity. While the product polymers are not monodisperse, and hence cannot achieve optimal lithographic contrast, they benefit from a structural feature which prevents chain scission during irradiation and hence increases the intrinsic sensitivity of the resist. Resists with sensitivities very close to target values of 5 and 12 μC cm-2 have been demonstrated, with negligible chain scission and lithographic contrast of 2.3. ©1999 Kluwer Academic Publishers

    Notes: Abstract The nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) model has become increasingly popular in the analysis of productive efficiency, and the number of empirical applications is now very large. Recent theoretical and mathematical research has also contributed to a deeper understanding of the seemingly simple but inherently complex DEA model. Less effort has, however, been directed toward comparisons between DEA and other competing efficiency analysis models. This paper undertakes a comparison of the DEA, the deterministic parametric (DFA), and the stochastic frontier (SFA) models. Efficiency comparisons across models in the above categories are done based on 15 Colombian cement plants observed during 1968–1988.
