Abstract:-This paper provides review of various wire length estimation techniques. Wire length plays an important role in the design of circuit. If wire length of the circuit is known before placement delay, resistance, power dissipation, and capacitance can be predicted. All these parameters play an important role in designing of the circuit. These parameters help in predicting the performance of the circuit in early design phase. Such estimations are very useful to optimize the circuits. This…

Maya Angelou once said, “My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” In her poem called “Alone”, she gives an extended example of a reason as to why some people are unable to thrive in life and why others do. “Alone” is about the fact that no one can survive in this rough, cruel world alone, and Maya Angelou depicts this through mood, figurative language, and symbolism. First of all, stanza one of…

The analysis of Kamil’s classroom work, test scores, as well as brief interviews I conducted with him in English and Polish indicate Kamil’s quick acquisition of the second language. According to several research studies, children who are taught to read and write in both their first and second languages at the same time, were successful in learning the second language (Slavin & Cheung, 2005). When Kamil moved to the U.S., he had already had a strong foundation of his first language, and what is…

During the period of 1885 to around 1920, Pictorialism photography dominated , which was likened to paintings as the image had visible brush strokes. Australian artist Harold Cazneaux produced images, which contained an atmospheric sense displayed by soft hues and grainy styles. This specific style was used throughout the world, and was also called the “Fuzzy Wuzzy Style”. Shortly after Pictorialism declined in popularity, Modernism was pioneered in Germany at the Bauhaus school of design. This…

An Arm’s Length Away A new day has begun, and once again I am awoken by the alarm. However, it is not the traditional jarring brrrrriiiiings of an alarm clock but rather the wispy chimes tolling from my phone. I have started anew and that dusty, old thing is no longer worth my time. There is not a need for it and neither is there a need for my mother’s echoing calls every morning. As I drag myself out of bed, I head past my curtains while checking the weather with a quick swipe and touch. I then…

Richard Learoyd is a British photographer, born 1966 – present, who utilizes a particular photographic processes called camera obscura, Latin translation “dark room,” to create his works of art. Learoyd designed and built his own room-sized portable camera obscura which sits adjacent to room his subject possess – separated by a singular lens. During this process, light falls upon the subject and is instantly fixated onto the photographic paper, no negative is produced. Learoyd’s approach to the…

This analysis focuses on assessment information provided by an elementary class comprised of 20 students. The results for one particular student named Bobby will also be highlighted in order to analyze and discuss his present developmental word study stage and procedures to support his and his peers spelling acquisition. The words spelled correctly, feature points, and the total feature score will be explained along with the rationalization for grouping the students recorded in this classroom…

Richard Norris Brooke was a prolific artist in the 1800s. He was most famous for his paintings of African-Americans.1 What made him so special was the fact that he was a Caucasian man painting positive depictions of African Americans by portraying them with dignity and happiness in the late 19th century. This was a time when African Americans were at a much lower societal class and weren’t liked by society. Brooke was an apprentice of an artist named, Leon Bonnat. He studied with Bonnat in…

For the line shot I chose a vertical line. I saw that m railing had vertical lines and the curtain next to it did as well. So as I shoot this I make sure that I get all the vertical lines into the shot. Next is the depth of field shot. This was my favorite shot, I just loved the way the camera would focus in and out and doing that was changing the depth of the shot. I used the pen I was using for my homework and sat it on a book and put them inside of a bookshelf. I moved it many angles to show…
