New in iOS 5.0, Newsstand provides a central place for users to read magazines and newspapers. Publishers who want to deliver their magazine and newspaper content through Newsstand can create their own iOS applications using the Newsstand Kit framework. This document intends to supplement the available technical documentation on the Newsstand Kit framework by answering frequently asked questions from Newsstand app developers.
I'm trying to learn about NK. In what cases is an app launched because it has the newsstand flag set in its main plist? My impression is that it isn't launched in that way, because the NK buffers incoming issues. But I am probably wrong so I wonder: Is an NK-aware app ever launched into the background?Thanks.
In his latest article in Journal of Communication, Erik Knudsen, is providing the Recommender Influence Selective Exposure framework, in which he aims to enable researchers in the field to study and model the conditional effects of News recommender system on selective exposure.
In his article, Knudsen, are providing a theoretical understading currently missing in the field, about conditions under which news recommender systems are expected to increase or decrease the chance of selective exposure. Knudsen propose a new framework titled RISE, where he asks "what are the conditions under which news recommenders systems amplify or reduce selective exposure in online news environment given that they are designed to do so?
The framework adds the ability to model the conditional cusing on experimentally controlling the news recommender systems design and programming decisions. It builds on and extends two key theoretical arguments that News recommenders systems can casually influence user behavior depending on what the system is designed to achieve and that news recommender systems be designed to influence selective exposure through promoting factors that prior work has identified as moderators of selective exposure.
a selection of international publications curated by mint LIST will be presented inside the structure, opening at the new generations festival from september 24th to 26th, 2017. versatile and flexible, the 4 x 4 x 4 meter modular structure has been designed by SET architects for assembly in under four hours thanks to its quick mounting system. the elements are made of affordable building materials: the main framework and furnishing is made in plasterboard and stainless steel, while the shelves and magazine supports are shaped from stainless steel.
Opinion No 03/2023 lays out a comprehensive regulatory framework for safe operations of new aircraft types. It introduces requirements for piloted electric air taxi operations, flight crew licensing, air traffic management, and standardized European rules of the air (SERA). The proposal also suggests a criteria and process for the certification and maintenance of remotely piloted drones.
Safety is at the core of the proposal. But EASA also hopes to promote the acceptance and adoption of emerging aircraft by E.U. citizens, accelerate innovation, harmonize regulatory frameworks across member states, and create an operation-centric, performance-based regulatory framework.
EASA wants to adopt an operation-centric and performance-based framework, with certification criteria that are proportionate to the type of intended operation and environment. VCA carrying passengers, for example, may be bound to stricter requirements. Manned VCA and complex and critical drone operations, in particular, could require hundreds of flight hours rather than tens.

As a part of the programme, which ran over two months in late 2021 for executives from European news organisations (and will run again soon for even more news executives from many other parts of the world, including Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa), we set about identifying some of the core brand assets news organisations must cultivate in order to market themselves while still maintaining their standards as objective and impartial, mission-focused organisations. Our framework has eight brand asset dimensions.
Based on data from leading global brands across media, CPG, nonprofit, finance, tech, and health care sectors, with qualitative inputs from over 40 CMOs and marketing leaders, this Playbook provides a comprehensive framework for identifying the industry benchmarks for marketing capabilities.
In The Anatomy of an iPhone 4S we looked at the hardware contained within an iPhone 4S device. When we develop apps for the iPhone, Apple does not allow us direct access to any of this hardware. In fact, all hardware interaction takes place exclusively through a number of different layers of software which act as intermediaries between the application code and device hardware. These layers make up what is known as an operating system. In the case of the iPhone, this operating system is known as iOS.In order to gain a better understanding of the iPhone development environment, this chapter will look in detail at the different layers that comprise the iOS operating system and the frameworks that allow us, as developers, to write iPhone applications.
Some diagrams designed to graphically depict the iOS software stack show an additional box positioned above the Cocoa Touch layer to indicate the applications running on the device. In the above diagram we have not done so since this would suggest that the only interface available to the app is Cocoa Touch. In practice, an app can directly call down any of the layers of the stack to perform tasks on the physical device.That said, however, each operating system layer provides an increasing level of abstraction away from the complexity of working with the hardware. As an iOS developer you should, therefore, always look for solutions to your programming goals in the frameworks located in the higher level iOS layers before resorting to writing code that reaches down to the lower level layers. In general, the higher level of layer you program to, the less effort and fewer lines of code you will have to write to achieve your objective. And as any veteran programmer will tell you, the less code you have to write the less opportunity you have to introduce bugs.
Now that we have identified the various layers that comprise iOS 5 we can now look in more detail at the services provided by each layer and the corresponding frameworks that make those services available to us as application developers.
The Cocoa Touch layer sits at the top of the iOS stack and contains the frameworks that are most commonly used by iPhone application developers. Cocoa Touch is primarily written in Objective-C, is based on the standard Mac OS X Cocoa API (as found on Apple desktop and laptop computers) and has been extended and modified to meet the needs of the iPhone hardware.The Cocoa Touch layer provides the following frameworks for iPhone app development:
