The Effect of Data Revisions on the Basic New Keynesian Model

This paper proposes an extended version of the basic New Keynesian monetary (NKM) model which contemplates revision processes of output and inflation data in order to assess the importance of data revisions on the estimated monetary policy rule parameters and the transmission of policy shocks. Our empirical evidence based on a structural econometric approach suggests that although the initial announcements of output and inflation are not rational forecasts of revised output and inflation data, ignoring the presence of non well-behaved revision processes may not be a serious drawback in the analysis of monetary policy in this framework. However, the transmission of inflation-push shocks is largely affected by considering data revisions. The latter being especially true when the nominal stickiness parameter is estimated taking into account data revision processes.

An Estimated New-Keynesian Model with Unemployment as Excess Supply of Labor

Wage stickiness is incorporated to a New-Keynesian model with variable capital to drive endogenous unemployment uctuations de ned as the log di¤erence between aggregate labor supply and aggregate labor demand. We estimated such model using Bayesian econometric techniques and quarterly U.S. data. The second-moment statistics of the unemployment rate in the model give a good t to those observed in U.S. data. Our results also show that wage-push shocks, demand shifts and monetary policy shocks are the three major determinants of unemployment fl uctuations. Compared to an estimated New-Keynesian model without unemployment (Smets and Wouters, 2007): wage stickiness is higher, labor supply elasticity is lower, the slope of the New-Keynesian Phillips curve is flatter, and the importance of technology innovations on output variability increases.

Zoning a cross-border city

This paper investigates zoning in a cross-border linear city that consists of two bordering towns. In each town a local regulator has a say in the location of the local firm. The incentive to gain consumers from the other town, or not to lose local consumers, may push regulators to approve only locations for firms close enough to the frontier. When zoning is costly an asymmetric equilibrium may emerge: only one regulator resorts to zoning. In the case of towns of different sizes the regulator of the larger town is the only one that zones in an asymmetric equilibrium.

Desarrollo de cliente OMA PoC para Android

[ES]Se presenta el siguiente proyecto de desarrollo, enfocado en el contexto de suplir las necesidades de los equipos de emergencias. Actualmente los equipos de emergencias, hacen uso de walkie talkies para comunicarse entre sí, es decir, hacen uso de la tecnología PTT (Push-to-talk). Es una comunicación unidireccional de un usuario a muchos, de manera que pueden transmitir la información necesaria a varios usuarios simultáneamente. Por otra parte, la comunicación mediante esta tecnología hace posible que sea en tiempo real sin prácticamente ningún retraso. Sin embargo el uso de esta forma de comunicación trae consigo algunos inconvenientes. Por ejemplo, los dispositivos tienen un rango de alcance de transmisión-recepción limitado. Además la banda de frecuencia para poder comunicarse debe ser reservada a fin de evitar posibles problemas de comunicación debido a que el canal estuviera ocupado por otros usuarios, posibles interferencias, etc. La reserva de este rango de frecuencia, supone un coste añadido para el uso de esta tecnología. Con el desarrollo de las redes móviles que ofrecen grandes velocidades de transmisión, se hace posible el uso de la tecnología PTT mediante la red móvil existente. De esta manera, surge el siguiente proyecto de desarrollo de una aplicación móvil Android, como cliente que haga uso de la tecnología PTT sobre la red móvil PoC (Push-to-talk Over Cellular).

Exploring Game Performance in the National Basketball Association Using Player Tracking Data

Recent player tracking technology provides new information about basketball game performance. The aim of this study was to (i) compare the game performances of all-star and non all-star basketball players from the National Basketball Association (NBA), and (ii) describe the different basketball game performance profiles based on the different game roles. Archival data were obtained from all 2013-2014 regular season games (n = 1230). The variables analyzed included the points per game, minutes played and the game actions recorded by the player tracking system. To accomplish the first aim, the performance per minute of play was analyzed using a descriptive discriminant analysis to identify which variables best predict the all-star and non all-star playing categories. The all-star players showed slower velocities in defense and performed better in elbow touches, defensive rebounds, close touches, close points and pull-up points, possibly due to optimized attention processes that are key for perceiving the required appropriate environmental information. The second aim was addressed using a k-means cluster analysis, with the aim of creating maximal different performance profile groupings. Afterwards, a descriptive discriminant analysis identified which variables best predict the different playing clusters. The results identified different playing profile of performers, particularly related to the game roles of scoring, passing, defensive and all-round game behavior. Coaching staffs may apply this information to different players, while accounting for individual differences and functional variability, to optimize practice planning and, consequently, the game performances of individuals and teams.
