SPECIALIZATION

Gilles Muller, Calton Pu, Charles Consel · 2008

Specialization is an approach which consists of adapting a generic program component to a given usage context. A specialization context can be composed of various things such as machine features, hardware or software configurations, values or properties of program inputs. Specialization is aimed at evaluating the computations which rely on the information provided by the usage context. Therefore, this process can lead to considerable performance gains. Specialization for Distributed Systems A key feature of modern distributed computing environments is their changing nature: heterogeneous machines are connected together and tasks can migrate as they execute; connections can evolve in time and in space; software environments provide applications with changing services; etc. This situation calls for systems to adapt to these changing parameters. A conventional way to achieve adaptation consists of structuring systems in terms of modules and layers to enable various functionalities to be added to match varying features of the computing environments. However, what seems to be an adequate strategy at the design level often leads to performance problems in the implementation. This situation is illustrated by micro-kernels (see Mach and Chorus), and middleware based systems (see Corba). By optimizing a program for a given context, specialization permits the elimination of some of the inefficiency due to

Forecasting regional variables provides very important information for political, institutional and economic agents. In this paper, we use predictions from spatial panel data models to evaluate regional resilience to the present economic crisis in terms of annual growth rate of employment. Furthermore, we evaluate whether specialization plays a significant role in the degree of resilience to the economic crisis suffered in Spain from 2007. Results show that while specialization in energy and manufacturing, construction or finance and other activities in the tertiary sector decreases resilience to the crisis, specialization in distribution, transport and common services enlarges the availability of returning to his pre-shock growth path. Furthermore, those regions specialized in distribution, transport and common services and agriculture are even super-resilience to the crisis.

This paper provides a dynamic general equilibrium framework to investigate how organizations change the modes to govern transactions over time and how such organizational change leads to endogenous process of economic development. We show that the agency problem becomes less serious when the economy is developed well so that large market size favors decentralized organizations having more specialization, which in turn actually leads to higher economic development. We then show how different organizational modes endogenously emerge in the same economy and cause endogenous process of economic development.

Abstract Probably the best known fact about Oystercatcher biology is that individuals differ in the feeding technique they adopt. Niko Tinbergen even produced a film about Oystercatchers called The specialist. The suggestion that these birds learn which feeding technique to use from their parents has become a classic example of the cultural transmission of behaviour while the presence of individual specializations has numerous consequences for understanding many aspects of their physiology, behaviour and population ecology. Partridge and Green (1985) suggested that the three main factors rhat will result in differences in foraging behaviour between individuals are differences in morphology, frequency-dependent advantage and differences in habitat.
