The Limits of Granularity Adjustments

The limits of Granularity Adjustments

We provide a rigorous proof of granularity adjustment (GA) formulas to evaluate loss distributions and risk measures (value-at-risk) in the case of heterogenous portfolios, multiple systemic factors and random recoveries. As a significant improvement with respect to the literature, we detail all the technical conditions of validity and provide an upper bound of the remainder term at a finite di...

Interoperability and Granularity: Some limits of Corba

In order to discuss Corba granularity, we present two case studies addressing fine grained objects (the Hector system), and coarse grained ones (Corba applicability in CAD Airplane). Finally we give a synthesis of some Corba limits which are very similar in both cases.

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

CHANGE CO 2 Emissions Limits : Economic Adjustments and the Distribution of Burdens

Pulmonary and circulatory adjustments determining the limits of depths in breathhold diving.

Data on pulmonary gas exchange were collected in breathhold dives to 90 feet in a tank and in open-sea breathhold dives to depths of 217.5 and 225 feet. Thoracic blood volume displacements were measured at depths of 25, 50, 90, and 130 feet, by use of the impedance plethysmograph. The open-sea dives were carried out with an average speed of descent of 3.95 feet per second and an average rate of...
