"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

R-boundedness of smooth operator-valued functions
No full textIn this paper we study -boundedness of operator families \mathcal{T}\subset \calL(X,Y), where and are Banach spaces. Under cotype and type assumptions on and we give sufficient conditions for -boundedness. In the first part we show that certain integral operator are -bounded. This will be used to obtain -boundedness in the case that is the range of an operator-valued function T:\R^d\to \calL(X,Y) which is in a certain Besov space B^{d/r}_{r,1}(\R^d;\calL(X,Y)). The results will be applied to obtain -boundedness of semigroups and evolution families, and to obtain sufficient conditions for existence of solutions for stochastic Cauchy problems.Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc

The sociolinguistic stratification of a connected speech process – The case of the t to r rule in the Black Country

The T to R rule is well known as a linguistic marker of local varieties of the middle and far north of England. Less well understood is its position in the phonological systems of Midlands varieties.
Varieties of the Midlands of England are underresearched in comparison with varieties of the north, and what is known about the application of the T to R rule in this transitional dialect area is correspondingly nebulous. This paper focuses on the Black Country area, and examines the possible outputs in the contexts which give rise to /t/ becoming [ɹ] in local varieties of the north. I examine the written and spoken evidence which suggests that the T to R rule does indeed operate in the Black Country variety. My analysis focuses on possible phonetic outcomes of the T to R rule across time. In my conclusion, I discuss briefly the possibility that, lying on a bundle of isoglosses separating north from south, the variety of the Black Country reflects this in that a T to [ɾ] rule, rather than a T to R rule, is the dominant output of this connected speech process in the Black Country
