As evidenced by the U.S. Government’s H1-B visa program, it hasbecome necessary to import skilled practitioners in these fields from other countries to meet theneeds of the American industrial base. In South Korea, 38% of all undergraduates receive theirdegrees in natural science or engineering. In France, the figure is 47%, in China, 50%, and inSingapore 67%. In the United States, the corresponding figure is 15%2. For the long-termeconomic health of this country it is important that more students pursue studies in these fieldsand then join the workforce.

Assignment #5: • Interpret results of business process improvements.During class, students are instructed on the learning objectives that are covered in eachassignment. In the first assignment (see appendix B), the objective is to identify the differentcomponents that are required to build the model. During this class students are introduced to thevarious components required to build a model. This is accomplished by reviewing a basic codethat was created as a result of building a model. Figure 1 shows a portion of the code output thatis discussed with the students. As a second part to this first assignment, students

  (b) Rotated Image  Figure 2: Image Rotation by ThetaWhile this equation is straightforward and easily understood by the students, a problem ariseswhen it is used. Due to rounding of floating point values to integers for pixel locations, some Page 22.47.4destination pixels will be mapped to more than one source pixel. With two or more source pixelsmapping to the same destination pixel, there will also be destination pixels that are never writtento, thus leaving holes in the rotated image. To solve the problems of holes and multiplemappings, the reverse mapping equation is employed. In the
