TL;DR: A valid shadow price ( ASPIRA) is introduced for integer programs where the right-hand side resource availability can only be varied in discrete steps and a sufficient condition for the marginal unit shadow price to equal the average shadow price is that the Law of Diminishing Returns should hold.

TL;DR: This paper examined Indian family firms' outward FDI strategy as a response to IFDI announcements by foreign MNCs and found that the inward FDI-growth response varies across firms and is shaped by heterogeneity in management type (professional/family-based), extent of foreign institutional ownership (high/low), and family CEO's international experience (possessed/not possessed).
Abstract: International business scholarship suggests that inward FDI (IFDI) may elicit a wide variety of strategic response from host country firms. While few studies have examined emerging market firms’ outward FDI (OFDI) strategy as a response to IFDI by foreign MNCs, no study has examined if and how family firms—a common occurrence in emerging markets—initiate similar response. Drawing on three streams of literature (competitive dynamics of emerging market firms, institutional development, and family firms), this study empirically examines a sample of Indian family firms over a six-year time-period. Results suggest that family firms increase their existing OFDI in response to IFDI announcements by foreign MNCs. Results also demonstrate that the OFDI-growth response varies across firms and is shaped by heterogeneity in management type (professional/family-based), extent of foreign institutional ownership (high/low), and family CEO’s international experience (possessed/not possessed). These findings are new to the literature. The study concludes by discussing the theoretical and managerial implications of the findings, and highlighting fertile avenues of future research.

TL;DR: A call admission control (CAC) scheme for heterogeneous wireless overlay networks (WONs) that combine the benefits of the three commonly used techniques- guard channel, buffer management and priority scheduling with fuzzy logic application is proposed.
Abstract: This paper proposes a call admission control (CAC) scheme for heterogeneous wireless overlay networks (WONs) that combine the benefits of the three commonly used techniques- guard channel, buffer management and priority scheduling with fuzzy logic application. The simulation results show that the scheme is extremely efficient offering a high degree of quality of service (QoS).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employ Theil's entropy-based index to estimate diversification in consumption expenditure, and use this as a measure of welfare for both rural and urban households.
Abstract: State-led financial inclusion programmes have been implemented in many developing countries, but their effectiveness in raising welfare remains widely debated. In this article, we report evidence on this issue, against the backdrop of recent policy initiatives on financial inclusion in India. We employ Theil’s entropy-based index to estimate diversification in consumption expenditure, and use this as a measure of welfare. Using household-level panel data across all regions of the country, we find evidence that greater financial inclusion increases diversity in non-food items. Further, we also notice that there is a shift in consumption basket from food items to non-food items. These findings suggest an improvement in welfare for both rural as well as urban households.
