NASA and its international partners will increasingly depend on software-based systems to implement advanced functions for future space missions, such as Martian rovers that autonomously navigate long distances exploring geographic features formed by surface water early in the planet's history. The software-based functions for these missions will need to be robust and highly reliable, raising s...

Purpose Although data rich building information models have been widely adopted in the Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry United Kingdom (UK), use of 2D drawings on site for construction is still norm. The ability 2-dimensional (2D) to convey complex 3-dimensional limited requires interpretation from operatives, can be quickly superseded by model updates. constructing dire...

OBJECTIVE There appears to be a common network of brain regions that underlie the ability to recall past personal experiences (episodic memory) and the ability to imagine possible future personal experiences (episodic future thinking). At the cognitive level, these abilities are thought to rely on "scene construction" (the ability to bind together multimodal elements of a scene in mind--depende...
