1. GDP measures both the total income of everyone in the economy and the total expendi- ture on the economy's output of goods and services. GDP can measure two things at once because both are really the same thing: for an economy as a whole, income must al expenditure. As the circular flow diagram in the text illustrates, these are alter- native, equivalent ways of measuring the flow of dollars in the economy

1 Intellectual property The Dutch legal system of intellectual property rights is highly determined by European legis lative initiatives. Both the European Directive on software protection and the European Directive on Data base protection have been implemented into Dutch law. This implied a Iment of the Copyright Law as well as the introduction of sui generis law on the protection for those databases that do not meet the requirement of under the Dutch Copyright

Exercise 2.3(Inverted Pendulum: Gaussian Membership Functions): Suppose that for the inverted pendulum example, we use Gaussian membership functions as defined in Table 2. 4 on page 53 rather than the triangular membership functions. To do this, use the same center values as we had for the triangular membership functions, use the\left\and\right\membership functions shown in Table 2. 4 for the outer edges of the input

n contrast to alcohols with their rich chemical reactivity, ethers (compounds contain- ing a C-0-C unit) undergo relatively few chemical reactions. As you saw wher we discussed Grignard reagents in Chapter 14 and lithium aluminum hydride reduc- tions in Chapter 15, this lack of reactivity of ethers makes them valuable as solvents in a number of synthetically important transformatio. In the present chapter you will learn

Corporate law is a field that underwent as thorough a revolution in the 1980s as can be imagined, in scholarship and practice, methodological and organizational, in which finance and the economic theory of the firm were used to inform the field. The timing of this revolution was not a fortuitous occurrence: it followed a revolution in corporate finance and

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are liquids or solids that contain organic carbon (carbon bonded to carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, or sulfur, but not carbonate carbon as in CaCO3 nor carbide carbon as in CaC2 or CO or CO2), which vaporize at significant rates. VOCs are probably the second-most widespread and diverse class of emissions after particulates
