The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of domestic and foreign outsourcing on level of employment. We will distinguish between narrow outsourcing (intra-industrial purchases of inputs) and broad outsourcing (inputs from all sectors). Outsourcing is calculated using domestic and import – use matrices of input-output tables for 28 Spanish manufacturing industries for the period 1993 t...

In this article, real exchange rate behavior and its effects on macroeconomic variables are studied by explaining two models; impulse function and forecasting predicted error decomposition. Studies show that high artificial currency value has caused domestic and foreign accounts equilibrium disturbance and foreign income decrease due to the slackening of commercial and agricultural activities, ...

t his study investigates the factors affecting the demand for new residential buildings in urban areas of iran during 1976-2010. the demand function for new residential buildings in urban areas was estimated and then the existence of a long-run relationship among variables of this function was studied using the bounds testing of the autoregressive distributed lag co-integration procedure. the t...

Geography might be expected to affect export performance in several ways. One is that the strength of international demand linkages varies between countries. Countries in South-East Asia have been at the centre of a fast growing region, which has created rising import demand. Given all we know about the importance of distance as a barrier to trade, the export opportunities created by these grow...

Each nuclear pore is responsible for both nuclear import and export with a finite capacity for bidirectional transport across the nuclear envelope. It remains poorly understood how the nuclear transport pathway responds to increased demands for nucleocytoplasmic communication. A case in point is cellular hypertrophy in which increased amounts of genetic material need to be transported from the ...

The RanGTP-binding nuclear transport receptors transportin1 (TRN1) and transportin2 (TRN2) are highly similar in sequence but are reported to function in nuclear import and export, respectively. Here we show that TRN2 possesses properties of a nuclear import receptor. TRN1/2 both interacted with a similar set of RNA-binding proteins in a RanGTP-sensitive manner. TRN2 bound RanGTP with high affi...

knowledge of energyconsumption has many uses in industry. factors that are energy dependent have already been studied hence decision making on them are easier. energy demand studies of industry helps us to learn factors that are responsive to this demand. therefore planners can use these collected data in their decision making using the above factors. another use of energy demand can be used as...
