(BRAC University, 2006)Bangladesh has a unique Banking system with multiple types of Banking with Nationalized Commercial Banks (NCBs), Private Commercial Banks (PCBs), Foreign Commercial Banks (FCBs), Islamic Commercial Banks (ICBs), Specialized ... -
Reconciling self-urban development practice and social justice
(BRAC University, 2005)We live in a world that is full of contradictions, of multiple positionalties, and of highly contested meanings and aspirations. Trying to position oneself in this complex world requires an understanding of the power, ... -
Migration, urbanization, industrialization, export promotion and economic development
(BRAC University, 2005)Import substitution was the main trend of industrial and trade policy after the World War Two. This policy in now disfavored and almost all developing countries are at present trying to increase exports to become developed. ... -
Incorrect F-statistic to test nonhomogeneous hypothesis in bivariate regression analysis
(BRAC University, 2005)In Regression analysis, an F test can be viewed as a comparison between a full and a restricted model. The most general F formula compares the error sums of squares (SSE’s) of these two models. This F formula is always ... -
Contested history of Neo-classical economic models of households in development
(BRAC University, 2005)The models outlined in this essay were basically put together to help economists analyze household behavior and subsequently propose government policies for poverty reduction. From the arguments posed in the above text, ... -
Factors associated with pregnancy complications during antenatal period: an extended GEE approach
(BRAC University, 2005)The purpose of the paper is to examine the factors affecting pregnancy complications during antenatal period of mothers. The study uses data which have been repeated over time i.e., the nature of the data is longitudinal ... -
Handloom industry on the way of exticntion: an empirical study over the pre-dominant factors
(BRAC University, 2005)Handloom industry in Bangladesh is having glorious past, questionable present and blurry future due to a lot of internal and external factors that are acting behind the scene. In this paper, we have identified those ... -
A fast tree based cluster labeling algorithm for Monte Carlo simultaitons
(BRAC University, 2005)A highly efficient tree based algorithm for studying site or bond percolation on any lattice system is described. Our approach is to identify the connectivity of the lattice sites in a single phase and to reduce the redundant ... -
The strategic implication of electronic commerce for small and medium sized enterprises (SME)
(BRAC University, 2005)The objective of this Paper is to examine the strategic implication of Electronic Commerce for small and medium sized enterprises. This paper explores how electronic commerce has the potential to transform the concept of ... -
Generation of supersonic solitions by earthquake emission in the van Allen rediation belt
(BRAC University, 2005)The parametric coupling between earthquake emitted circularly polarized electromagnetic radiation and ponderomotively driven ion-acoustic perturbations in the Van Allen Radiation Belt is considered. A cubic nonlinear ... -
A new approach on the torison and curvature tensors in supermanifolds
(BRAC University, 2005)In this paper geometric space, super space, supermanifold, superconnection, the torsion and the curvature tensors are studied and some new notions of local forms of the torsion and curvature tensors are established, for ... -
The economic impact of E-commerce
(BRAC University, 2005)E-commerce has a significant impact on business costs and productivity. E-Commerce has a chance to be widely adopted due to its simple applications. Thus it has a large economic impact. It gives the opportunity for “boundary ... -
Transactional analysis counselling: an introduction
(BRAC University, 2005)Transactional analysis is a systematic tool for personal growth and development. In Transactional Analysis counselor does counseling for developing adult ego states of the client. Though all time an individual behaves, ... -
Free convection and mass transfer flow past an infinite vertical porous plate with dufour and soret effects in a porus medium
(BRAC University, 2005)A numerical solution of unsteady free convection and mass transfer flow is presented when a viscous, incompressible fluid flows along an infinite vertical porous plate embedded in a porous medium. Both the Dufour and Soret ... -
Parsing Bangla using LFG: an introduction
(BRAC University, 2005)This paper is intended to introduce LFG (Lexical Functional Grammar) for parsing Bangla. The LFG formalism, which has evolved from extensive computational, linguistic, and psycholinguistic research, provides a simple set ... -
Finite volume methods for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations on curved manifolds
(BRAC University, 2005)The natural mathematical arena to formulate conservation laws on curve manifolds is that of differential geometry. Ricci developed this branch of mathematics from 1887 to 1896. Subsequent work in differential geometry has ... -
Linear and nonlinear dynamic conductivity of carbon nanotubes
(BRAC University, 2005)Electronic properties of carbon nanotubes are studied. L inear response of dynamic conductivity of both zigzag and armchair nanotubes is analyzed at different temperatures and for different radii of nanotubes in the framework ... -
Gravitational waves in a magnetized plasma
(BRAC University, 2005)An overview of gravitational wave and its possible detection while propagating in a plasma is given. The linear propagation of gravitational wave in magnetized plasma is considered. It is found that a × polarized gravitational ... -
Interaction in second language classrooms
(BRAC University, 2005)Dealing with reticent students in a second language classroom is one the major issues a language teacher is faced with, and it becomes an exasperating experience when the students are from multicultural background who do ...
