Embedded creative workers and creative work in education

This article is concerned with the many connections between creative work and workers, and education work and industries. Employment in the education sector has long been recognised as a significant element in creative workers’ portfolio careers. Much has been written, for example, about the positive contribution of ‘artists in schools’ initiatives. Australian census analyses reveal that education is the most common industry sector into which creative workers are ‘embedded’, outside of the core creative industries. However, beyond case studies and some survey research into arts instruction and instructors, we know remarkably little about in which education roles and sectors creative workers are embedded, and the types of value that they add in those roles and sectors. This article reviews the extant literature on creative work and workers in education, and presents the findings of a survey of 916 graduates from creative undergraduate degrees in Australia. The findings suggest that education work is very common among creative graduates indeed, while there are a range of motivating factors for education work among creative graduates, on average they are satisfied with their careers, and that creative graduates add significant creative-cultural and creative-generic value add through their work.     

The careers of fine artists and the embedded creative

While there is a growing body of scholarship on the creative industries and on the career trajectories of graduates from creative industries programmes, there has to date only been a limited amount of research that examines in detail, the careers of fine arts graduates. Fine art is arguably the least ‘vocational’ of creative disciplines, in that there are relatively few employers that seek to employ fine artists as fine artists. If fine arts graduates are not employed in their chosen field – that is, in the ‘Creative Trident’ terminology, in a core creative occupation – how do their careers parallel or differ from those of other creative graduates? Do they find employment as ‘embedded creatives’, using or applying their experience and practice in sectors beyond the core creative industries, or as ‘support workers’, enabling and facilitating the creative work of others? Do they experience portfolio careers? And how do their artistic training and attitudes to creativity affect their working relationships and experiences? This article draws on rich qualitative data about the experiences of a small group of graduates (including the author) who all graduated from the same course at the same institution in the UK in 1994, to provide some insights into the career paths and trajectories of a sample of fine arts graduates.     

基于多线程通讯服务模型的交通诱导系统设计

提出并描述了多线程通讯服务模型的设计和实现方法,该模型充分利用面向对象理论将交通诱导系统中嵌入式外场设备、通讯服务中心与监控客户端和他们之间的通讯过程分别进行了模型抽象和系统实现。对比之前的监控机单点监控模型,能够更好的解决多监控机在多网络连接内与多类型外场设备的实时通讯控制问题。同时,相对于单线程和双线程通讯模型,通过系统运行测试,该多线程模型有效的解决了由于个别通讯故障引发的整体系统轮询等待滞后问题,缩短了整个轮询和控制通讯周期。     

嵌入式系统亚稳态高阶扩散模糊决策能耗管理

嵌入式系统最优能耗敏捷管理技术是解决广泛应用下系统能耗制约的关键。传统的系统能耗敏捷管理方法采用基于双基准态稳定下的判决思想,对固定的稳态和固定的非稳态进行低阶扩散研究,受限于低阶扩散特性对于系统高阶风险管理的片面性,无法实现最优敏捷管理。提出一种基于亚稳态高阶扩散模糊决策的最优嵌入式系统能耗敏捷管理设计,采用亚稳态下的高阶扩散特性,对嵌入式系统亚稳态下的实际特性进行描述分析,采用亚稳态描述符判断中间量,然后基于模糊决策思想,对亚稳态高阶扩散进行模糊向量积分,得到模糊决策,并将模糊决策结果应用于能耗管理,实现最优能耗敏捷管理。最后采用实际的嵌入式系统进行最优化系统能耗敏捷管理测试实验,结果表明,该方法的嵌入式系统在各种风险态下的能耗管理均优于传统方法,能耗平均节约37%,对于系统能耗管理具有很好的指导意义。

网络结构视角下的产业转移与企业创新绩效

在回顾产业转移本地嵌入和企业创新绩效文献的基础上,将区域创新合作网络结构作为中介变量引入到两者的关联关系中,构建产业转移本地嵌入、区域创新合作网络结构和企业创新绩效间关系的理论模型,根据对欠发达地区213家企业进行问卷调查所获得的数据,运用结构方程模型进行实证研究。结果表明:产业转移本地嵌入对欠发达地区企业创新绩效有正向促进作用,区域创新合作网络结构在两者关系中起到了重要的中介作用;产业转移垂直嵌入的促进作用主要通过代表短期创新能力的财务绩效体现,而产业转移水平嵌入的促进作用主要通过代表长期创新能力的战略绩效体现。
