ACCUMULATION AND RENTAL BEHAVIOR IN THE MARKET FOR FARMLAND
A farmerÂ’s choices of tenure and farm size result from a complex interplay of economic factors technology, entrepreneurial ability, and personal preferences. This paper examines the qualitative effects of these factors on tenure and farm size in a dynamic optimization framework. One implication of the theoretical model is that changes in technology should cause systematic differences to be observed between rates of return on farmland and rates earned on comparable long-term assets. This implication is supported by an empirical test.Land Economics/Use,

Automating embedded analysis capabilities and managing software complexity in multiphysics simulation part I: template-based generic programming
An approach for incorporating embedded simulation and analysis capabilities
in complex simulation codes through template-based generic programming is
presented. This approach relies on templating and operator overloading within
the C++ language to transform a given calculation into one that can compute a
variety of additional quantities that are necessary for many state-of-the-art
simulation and analysis algorithms. An approach for incorporating these ideas
into complex simulation codes through general graph-based assembly is also
presented. These ideas have been implemented within a set of packages in the
Trilinos framework and are demonstrated on a simple problem from chemical
engineering
