cFS Tutorial Stage 2: Transform the NASA sample_app To Your Own ...

Copy & Customize Stock cFS sample_app and Connect It Up Build Automation ... by David Ferreira NOTE: This post is a sequel to my first cFS tutorial . These steps assume you have completed all the steps in the prior post. Without those step, these instructions will make no sense. Intro In my last post, we downloaded NASA's cFS framework, made a slight modification to the NASA sample_app and then build it and ran it. In this post, we will start where we left off and progress to cloning the sample_app and making it our own. We will focus on the idiosyncrasies of loading a new application module on cFE boot and linking our new, cloned application into the existing cFS build automation which relies on CMake and make to build both the applications and the framework. This is very much non-trivial and worthy of its own blog post. This post WILL NOT FOCUS ON how to efficiently rename 20+ files at a time in Linux terminal. Nor will we focus clever use of find/replace in a text editor to

Baumol's Cost Disease Explained

[Note:  Derek Ferreira helped edit this article. Additionally, William J. Baumol was my instructor at NYU.] Background Here are some background articles for more in-depth understanding of Baumol's Cost Disease: Wikipedia Entry   Vox article The Exaggerated Role Of 'Cost Disease' In Soaring College Tuition What is it? Baumol's Cost Disease is phenomenon where real wages increase in a sector or a job that has seen little or no productivity growth.   It was first described and analyzed in a study by William J. Baumol and William G. Bowen in the 1960s. You may be tempted to immediately point to inflation as a simple explanation for this. But note that we have already ruled out inflation by specifying "real wages" above. (You may already know that when economists use the word "real", they generally mean "inflation adjusted" or "excluding inflation".) So you should be visualizing a case where wages for a particular job where there has b
