This paper presents five-stage and seven-stage traveling-wave amplifiers (TWA) in a 0.12m SOI CMOS technology. The five-stage TWA has a 4–91-GHz bandpass frequency with a gain of 5 dB. The seven-stage TWA has a 5–86-GHz bandpass frequency with a gain of 9 dB. The seven-stage TWA has a measured 18-GHz noise figure, output 1-dB compression point, and output third-order intercept point of 5.5 dB, ...

If the matrix oi pararrreters of a discrete multiplicative process 1s suhecl Cu certain sequentially dependent random perturbations, the long-run growth rate of the average process is not in general bounded above by the largest sup, Ai of the growth rates A, of the individual matrices which drive the process. The growti rate p of the average process may, in general, be greater or less than the ...

Hanlon (2005) and Lev and Nissim (2004) provide rather compelling evidence that book-tax differences, on average, are systematically related to earnings growth, future stock returns, and earnings persistence. Among other implications, these studies suggest that book-tax differences are useful measures in evaluating firm performance. Consistent with these studies, Shevlin (2002) and Hanlon, Lapl...

This research essay highlights the need to integrate predictive analytics into information systems research and shows several concrete ways in which this goal can be accomplished. Predictive analytics include empirical methods (statistical and other) that generate data predictions as well as methods for assessing predictive power. Predictive analytics not only assist in creating practically use...

abstract in this research, a radial basis function artificial neural network (rbf-ann) model was developed to predict the hot deformation flow curves of api x65 pipeline steel. the results of the developed model was compared with the results of a new phenomenological model that has recently been developed based on a power function of zener-hollomon parameter and a third order polynomial functio...

We examine whether investor sentiment can explain anomalies such as size and book-to-market in the US stock market. Differently from literature, we test combination portfolios (portfolios formed on more than one factor size, ratio, etc.) of developed markets for same purpose. find that is related to some Europe, Japan, North America global portfolios; hence, anomaly relationship may be universa...

Behavioral economics increases the explanatory power of economics by providing it with more realistic psychological foundations. This book consists of representative recent articles in behavioral economics. This chapter is intended to provide an introduction to the approach and methods of behavioral economics, and to some of its major findings, applications, and promising new directions. It als...
