theoretical model showing that skilled labor has a higher growth-enhancing effect closer to the technological frontier under the reasonable assumption that innovation is a relatively more skillintensive activity than imitation.

In particular

our group members went for another brief interview but with the manager of Honda Brest instead. A brief 20-minute interview which proved much more useful and informative than the previous one. It was also our best source of information thus far. Data Collection This is probably our toughest obstacle to overcome and one we are currently still having problems with.

research and recent publications linked to the Good Childhood Inquiry, UNICEF’s work on child wellbeing and the work of the Early Years Commission. Secondary data analysis, including the collation and analysis of OECD data on national investments in children and families, data on outcomes across a range of social issues and European Social Survey data on subjective well-being.

to increase substantially in markets such as automotive (36%), industrial automation (22%), telecommunications (37%), consumer electronics (41%) and health/medical equipment (33%). The value added to the final product by embedded software is much higher than the cost of the embedded device itself. For example, in the case of a modern car, by 2010 over 35% of its value will be due to embedded electronics. ” [ARTEMIS JU Organisation -
