In this report we contribute to the growing debate about how the introduction of technology affects labour demand. First, we provide some background of the main theoretical frameworks (SBTC and RBTC) used by researchers to explain recent changes in the employment distribution. Second, we review...

In this report we review the literature on the relationship between ICT and productivity. In Sect. 1 we discuss in broad terms the theoretical relationship between ICT and productivity, while in Sect. 2 we present the growth accounting methodology, which tries to measure the contributions to...

Ten years ago, when the Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan was launched, the energy transition was in the making but still looked distant. While the challenge of successfully transforming our energy system still lies ahead of us, few would deny that the chances of success seem today much...

This report presents some preliminary calculations for the simulation of rat, monkey and human head behaviour (in particular of the brain) under imposed deceleration conditions by the EUROPLEXUS code. EUROPLEXUS (also abbreviated as EPX) is a computer code jointly developed by the French...

The purpose of this technical paper is to illustrate a computationally cheap approach of conducting the multivariate sensitivity analysis with a very large and complex non-linear model RHOMOLO. We evaluated model responses to the different combinations of the following input data a) elasticity...

The PN-PEMS is considered a "black box" where efficiency tests and linearity have to be checked with thermally stable soot like aerosol. The efficiency is checked with monodisperse aerosol. The most straight forward way is to check the efficiency of the complete PN-PEMS but checking the thermal...
