Migration Data And Brain Train Trends And Impacts Panel Discussion, Jennifer Zarek, David J. Drozd, Jill Heese

This paper re-examines and updates a controversial historical economic analysis, presented almost 45 years ago by Robert William Fogel1 and Stanley L. Engerman in their “Time on the Cross: The Economics of American Negro Slavery (1974).” The authors purported their work has two main objectives: 1) to revise an erroneous, “traditional” characterization of the slave economy and myths about black slaves themselves and 2) to apply rapid advances in economics, quantitative statistics, applied mathematics and the availability of high-speed computers to analyze large data sets, to re-examine and better understand the institution of slavery.

Although the self-driving technology promises to solve several urban issues, the deployment of the autonomous vehicles (AV) is an evolutionary process that depends on different factors. One of these factors is the public adoption of AVs that plays a crucial role in the deployment of this technology by controlling the level of market penetration. By analyzing the cross-national survey studies on AVs acceptance, the author finds that the rate of AVs adoption in America is considerably lower than other developed countries. Although some studies have focused on the AVs adoption in the US and the factors that affect it, there …

Notes Regarding Nebraska Population Change From The Tuesday December 20, 2016 U.S. Census Bureau Release Of State Population Estimates As Of July 1, 2016, David Drozd
Past Publications
The Census Bureau estimates the July 1, 2016 population of Nebraska to be 1,907,116. The state hit a new population milestone, exceeding the 1.9 million mark for the first time. Seven years passed between exceeding 1.8 million for the first time in 2009 and this new milestone in 2016. This 7-year timespan ties for the shortest such duration to gain 100,000 persons with the 7-year period from 1992 to 1999, when the state rose from 1.6 million to 1.7 million residents. See table below. Projections by our office in 2013 suggest it will take 9 years to move from 1.9 …
