An oligopoly model with endogenous sunk costs illustrates the trade off between ex ante extraction of oligopoly rents and market entry of firms in the mobile telecommunications industry. Competitive bidding for radio frequency licences provides scope for setting market structure endogenously: the higher the licence fee, the lower the number of competitive firms sustained by the market. High lic...

On the face of it all this sounds hygienically excellent, but as far as achievement of a national supply of clean milk is concerned there is still one very weak point. Dairymen are in no way legally bound to hold these licences. If the public is foolish enough still to accept heavily infected milk, it will be delivered to them indefinitely. The local health authority cannot compel the productio...

This paper provides an overview of the OneGeology-Europe project’s work on the harmonisation of access and licensing policies of the national Geological Surveys in the European U7nion. After presenting the European legal framework for the availability of public sector spatial data, it sets out some of the main challenges for harmonising data policies and the activities that were undertaken in t...

Learning and Teaching Corpus of the online educational experiment Simuligne (2001). Its scenario is based on a global simulation for the learning of French as a foreign language. It also includes an intercultural activity, "Interculture", based on the Cultura project. The corpus includes the pedagogical scenario, described in several formats, the research protocol, participant's online interact...

The characterisation of scholarly communication is dominated by citation-based measures. In this paper we propose several metrics to describe different facets of open access and open research. We discuss measures to represent the public availability of articles along with their archival location, licences, access costs and supporting information. Calculations illustrating these new metrics are ...

We present an updated and improved version of our syntactic analysis query toolkit, dep search, geared towards morphologically rich languages and large parsebanks. The query language supports complex searches on dependency graphs, including for example boolean logic and nested queries. Improvements we present here include better data indexing, especially better database backend and document met...
