The DARPA Diverse Accessible Heterogeneous Integration (DAHI) program is developing transistorscale heterogeneous integration processes to intimately combine advanced compound semiconductor (CS) devices, as well as other emerging materials and devices, with high-density silicon CMOS technology. DAHI is pursuing a holistic approach to heterogeneous integration which includes initiatives in high ...

We would like to express our deepest gratitude Wally Hopp, Mark Spearman, and the eight commentators—all luminaries in Lean—for their excellent Forum articles (Hopp & Spearman 2021, hereinafter, source “A”; Cusumano et al. “B”). These have stimulated thinking encouraged rich debate community. Over past 40 years, Lean Toyota Production System (TPS) from which it originated sourced much of resear...

A new surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor is developed through theoretical and experimental investigation to detect the surface forces (wall pressure and wall friction) and the direction of the turbulent flow as a function of position and time on the structure. The sensor is composed of a pair of SAWs having an identical center frequency with surface waves experencing shear stresses in opposite ...

Some of the first attempts at using visualization methods to aid decisions in design and optimization are found in [1]. More recent advances in computer visualization and Virtual Reality (VR) [2-4] are allowing designers and scientists to interact and manipulate vast amounts of data. Until these innovations, computers were solely relied on to interpret results and compute answers based on progr...

This paper reports preliminary and partial results of a flight experiment to address how General Aviation (GA) pilots use weather cues to make flight decisions. This research presents pilots with weather cue conditions typically available to GA pilots in visual meteorological conditions (VMC) and instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) today, as well as in IMC with a Graphical Weather Inform...

The technical innovations of precise numerical radiometry, spectral differentiation and seasonally repetitive monitoring, introduced by the Landsat system, have created a new measurement approach to terrestrial monitoring. The Landsat-7 mission reflects significant progress in realizing the scientific potential of this measurement strategy. Substantial improvements in calibration procedures, bo...

In order for an Artificially Intelligent System (AIS) to be truly Autonomous, we must provide the system with the abilities to acquire, categorize, classify, store, and retrieve information and knowledge, and provide abilities to infer or reason about the knowledge that it has stored. This drives the need for memory types that are similar to the different memories in the human brain (Crowder an...

Unexpected, non-normative events are key influences on human development across the life span. Despite this importance, little is known about how an individual may capitalize on unexpected events and transform them into opportunities for sustained positive development. In this article, to address this theoretical lacuna, I introduce the concept of serendipitous relations mutually beneficial, ad...
