    Under the direction of James Hughes, the Bloustein School surveyed all 92 member institutions of the New Jersey Bankers Association and received a 73 percent response rate. This year’s survey results indicate a soaring confidence in the US economy. Nearly 85 percent of respondents indicated the national economy’s health as “good,” and a record 10 percent rated it as “excellent.” For the first time in the survey’s history, no one rated it as “poor.” While somewhat more muted than sentiments toward the national economy, confidence in the NJ economy is nonetheless surging. 42 percent of respondents rated New Jersey’s economic health as “good” in 2018, compared to 15 percent in 2016. Still, 2018 marks the eighth consecutive year in which no respondent has rated New Jersey’s economy as “excellent.”Survey conducted for New Jersey Bankers Association by Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy. Field period: February 26-April 20, 2018. Published May, 2018

    Metadata initiatives and emerging technologies to improve resource discovery

    No full text
    This paper discusses some emerging issues on metadata as a mechanism of resource discovery and its impact on precision of search results in a distributed network environment. It presents a brief account of the recent major developments related to metadata across the globe. Highlights a consistent growth of multiple metadata standards to meet the variety of needs in a hierarchy of complexity. Examines various metadata-harvesting tools and related technologies that fulfill the task implicit in a user’s search. Brings out popular standards, useful protocols, and open-source harvesters along with their intrinsic capabilities for harvesting and presenting metadata and introduces a variety of metadata services viz., OCLC’s catalogue service, UKOLN metadata editor service, OAIster harvester service, DP9 gateway service, etc. explores the underlying principles of metadata-harvesting in DSpace and web search engines. Discusses use of multiple metadata formats in DSpace archives for exposing domain-specific metadata; and the inherent mechanism for extensibility and interoperability functions. Proposes methods for creating metadata that can pursue high-precision document retrieval in dynamic collections. Also discuses semantic web technologies and use of specialized metadata for long-term management and preservation of digital objects

    Marc Bloch et Lucien Febvre face à l'Allemagne nazie

    No full text
    Marc Bloch and Lucien Febvre in the face of Nazi Germany Contrary to a widespread preconception, the Annales of Marc Bloch and Lucien Febvre were not «unaware» of Nazism, but attempted to explain its genesis and particularities in a number of articles. Thus, in discussing the work of L. Varga, Febvre proposed to analyze Nazism as a socio-cultural movement and not as a doctrine. During the war, the editors of the Annales were directly confronted with the yoke of Nazism in the form of the terrible choice between discontinuing or continuing to publish the revue. Whereas several commentators have recently accused Febvre of «accommodating» or even «collaborating» with the occupying regime, the author reconstitutes the facts involved in the conflict between Bloch and Febvre, arguing in favour of a more impartial understanding of the latter's behaviour.■ Peter Schöttler : Marc Bloch et Lucien Febvre face à l'Allemagne nazie Contrairement à un préjugé répandu, les Annales de Marc Bloch et de Lucien Febvre n'ont pas «ignoré» le nazisme, mais tenté d'expliquer dans de nombreux articles sa genèse et ses particularités. Ainsi, reprenant les travaux de L. Varga, Febvre proposa d'analyser le nazisme termes de mouvement socio-culturel non de doctrine. Durant la guerre, directeurs des Annales furent de façon directe au joug nazi : arrêter continuer la revue, telle fut la alternative dont ils durent débattre. Tandis que plusieurs commentateurs récemment accusé Febvre d'«accomodation», voire même de avec le régime d'occupation, reconstitue les conditions concrètes conflit entre Bloch et Febvre et pour une compréhension plus du comportement de ce dernier.Schöttler Peter.

    Equilibrium transition study for a hybrid MAV

    Wind tunnel testing was performed on a VTOL aircraft in order to characterize longitudinal flight behavior during an equilibrium transition between vertical and horizontal flight modes. Trim values for airspeed, pitch, motor speed and elevator position were determined. Data was collected by independently varying the trim parameters, and stability and control derivatives were identified as functions of the trim pitch angle. A linear fractional representation model was then proposed, along with several methods to improve longitudinal control of the aircraft
