The book is written by Mariarosa Dalla Costa and Monica Chilese; translated by Silvia Federici; Common Notions; NY.2014.

Rebuilding the limit order book: Sequential Bayesian inference on hidden states

The limit order book of an exchange represents an information store of market participants' future aims and for many traders the information held in this store is of interest. However, information loss occurs between orders being entered into the exchange and limit order book data being sent out. We present an online algorithm which carries out Bayesian inference to replace information lost at the level of the exchange server and apply our proof of concept algorithm to real historical data from some of the world's most liquid futures contracts as traded on CME GLOBEX, EUREX and NYSE Liffe exchanges. © 2013 © 2013 Taylor & Francis.

Hydrophobic pocket modification and humanized catalytic antibodies with glutathione peroxidase activity (I) - Preparation and characterization of haptenes and conjugates

The thiol group of glutathione (GSH) was protected by 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), the product S-substituted dinitrophenyl GSH(GSH-S-DNP) was alcoholized to obtain haptenes 4 and 5 respectively. As haptenes, the two GSH derivatives were characterized by means of H-1 NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS and IR, followed by individually coupling with bovine serum albumin (BSA) via glutaraldehyde. BSB-Hp4 and BSA-Hp5 were purified by Sephadex G-25 gel filtration chromatography. For each conjugate, the average haptene-BSA ratio was 12 : 1. The electrophoresis analysis showed that the average molecular weight of each conjugate was 76 500. The CD spectrum indicated that the conjugates had more a-helix content than BSA did.

Analysis and Assessment of Conclusions in the White Book regarding Threats and Challenges in EU Common Security and Defence Policy

Among the many issues that were raised in the White Book on National Security of the Republic of Poland (WBNSRP), there were also those related to the functioning of a Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). Its importance for the security of Poland was indicated, as well as the need on the part of EU Member States to broaden collaboration in the sphere of security and defence. The key problems occurring in the context of CSDP were also emphasised and their causes indicated. The aim of the article is to present the factors responsible for the weakening of CSDP effectiveness, ones taken into account in the White Book, and subsequently to present a Framework for their analysis in the light of further scholarship.
