. Information was gathered from Texterity, Incorporated’s “Profile of the Digital Magazine Reader.” The results of these surveys showed that there is a growing demand for digital magazines and concluded the major trends. Major trends included rich media streams like video and

in different areas of applications. In this survey of CLP, a primary goal is to give a systematic description of the major trends in terms of common fundamental concepts. The three main parts cover the theory, implementation issues, and programming for applications.

Abstract—This paper summarizes the current state of the art and recent trends in software engineering economics. It provides an overview of economic analysis techniques and their applicability to software engineering and management. It surveys the field of software cost estimation, including

Printing has become a mature industry, forcing printers to create new applications for their manufacturing process. One such application is printed electronics. The gravure printing process allows for incredible speed and exceptional quality for tra-ditional graphic printing. Theoretically, this would be an ideal method for the com-mercial production of printed electronics. This study analyzes gravure’s capabilities to produce a uniform conductive ink line and what to expect in the future of gravure printed electronics. Printed line properties such as line widening and scalloped edges were determined to impede gravure’s ability to lay down a conductive ink line. Best results were achieved with high viscosity inks, high pressure, and a slow printing speed. Ink surface uniformity was also a problem due to ink dots created from the electromechanically engraved cells, thus increasing line resistance. In gen-eral, the gravure process needs to be substantially modified before a mass production of printed electronics can take place. Although it is unlikely that any specific printing process, will completely dominate the production of a single electronic product, gra-

are discussed from an algorithm design perspective. The focus is on the major issues such as fitness assignment, diversity preservation, and elitism in general rather than on particular algorithms. Different techniques to implement these strongly related concepts will be discussed, and further important aspects

Identifying major trends related to the supply and demand for teachers in Michigan provides the purpose for this study. The data was gathered primarily from the Professional Personnel Register compiled annually by the Teacher Education and Professional Service Division of the Michigan Department

This paper documents the major trends in debt (bank and bond) markets in emerging economies since the early 1990s, when these markets started expanding. The paper shows that banks have increased in size in most emerging economies though from low bases. But bond markets have expanded even more

The available bandwidth (avail-bw) in a network path is of major importance in congestion control, streaming applications, QoS verification, server selection, and overlay networks. We describe an end-to-end methodology, called Self-Loading Periodic Streams (SLoPS), for measuring avail-bw. The basic

Abstract: This paper provides a review of the literature that documents technology mentoring models used in higher education and K-12 schools. Various mentoring models from teacher education programs and K-12 schools are described. After summarizing the mentoring models, a description of commonalties found among these mentoring programs are shared. Despite the variety of technology mentoring models, effective programs include common elements. These elements include providing visions for technology use, individualizing technology support, breaking down hierarchical structure, establishing learning communities, and providing mutual benefits for mentors and mentees.
