Corporate governance and cost of debt financing: Empirical evidence from Canada by Ghouma, Hatem

“…In such context, bondholders value stronger boards (in terms of composition as well structured board can mitigate agency problems), and are also particularly concerned with the quality of the firms’ disclosure policies (to reduce information asymmetry). In addition to the Board Composition and the Disclosure sub-indexes, we also find a significant negative relationship between shareholder rights sub-index and the cost of debt for issuers headquartered in Quebec. …”

Impact of time synchronization error on the mode-shape calculation in wireless sensor networks for structural health monitoring by Abdaoui, Abderrazak

“…In this paper, we study the impact of time synchronization error (TSE) on the mode shape calculation in a semi-local manner using frequency domain decomposition (FDD) implemented in a semi-local manner. In order to decrease the size of the transmitted data by the sensor nodes and reduce the processing load and needed storage capacity on the central unit, we adopt a semi-local processing approach where each node partially processes the measured data. …”
