We introduce finite-function-encoding (FFE) states which encode arbitrary Refrigerant Gas Leak Detector $d$-valued logic functions, i.e., multivariate functions over the ring of integers modulo $d$, and investigate some of their structural properties.We also point out some differences between polynomial and non-polynomial function encoding states:
It has often been argued that countries that produce Pliers natural resources mobilize less non-resource tax revenues than other countries.In this paper, we exploit the exogenous variation in the timing of giant oilfield discoveries to estimate the causal impact of natural resources on taxation.The timing of giant oilfield discoveries is arguably e
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measures are used to assess the multifaceted impact of disease, and determine the utility and associated Cap disability.In addition, the impact of medical interventions must be assessed by psychometrically robust HRQOL measures based on a comprehensive and dynamic model.To develop such a model, the concepts of
