"As a pioneer of ubiquitous computing-the embedding of technology in everyday objects from thermostats to doorbells-computer scientist Mark Weiser's descriptions of smart homes, now thirty years later, might seem to approach our reality. Weiser's views certainly influenced our technology's developers-his 1991 Scientific American article 'The Computer for the 21st Century' was flagged a must-read by Microsoft's Bill Gates and then circulated among the day's digirati, including those Silicon Valley insiders who crowded his beer garden-based 'office hours.' Unlike many of his contemporaries, Weiser's vision was motivated by the philosophies of Michael Polanyi and Martin Heidegger, collaboration with anthropologists such as Lucy Suchman, and insights from artists including Natalie Jeremijenko. He hoped to realize 'tacit computing' as an escape from a single attention-grabbing screen as a portal to work, entertainment, and education. When rivals such as Nicholas Negroponte at MIT's Media Lab championed the development of smart agents (the ancestors of Siri and Alexa) or pervasive sensing in wearable technologies (proto-Fitbits or Apple Watches), Weiser balked. Weiser wanted computers to be something closer to the white cane a person with low vision might use to navigate the world. Good technology, he argued, should not mine our experiences for data to sell or demand our attention. Technology should not rob its users of the hardships that establish their expertise, but instead give them the ability to conceive of the world in new ways. In this compelling biography of a person and idea, digital studies scholar John Tinnell shows Weiser, who died of cancer at 46, would be heartbroken if he had lived to see the ways we use technology today. Informed by deep archival research and interviews with Weiser's family and Xerox PARC colleagues, this book uses Weiser's life to offer a new history of today's technological reality, an inside view of Xerox PARC during its heyday, and a compelling vision of what computers failed to be"--

"This book describes the decades-long genealogy and governing logic of what we call the smartness mandate. While "smart" devices and infrastructures such as smart electrical grids, smart cities, and smart phones proliferated in the 1990s and early 2000s, the smartness mandate, which aims to link these individual instances of smart technologies into a coherent project of governance, was first explicitly articulated in the early 2000s"--

From the New York Times-bestselling author, a new volume on the history of human ingenuity-and its attendant breakthroughs and busts.The world is never finished catching up with Vaclav Smil. In his latest and perhaps most readable book, Invention and Innovation, the prolific author-a favorite of Bill Gates-pens an insightful and fact-filled jaunt through the history of human invention. Impatient with the hype that so often accompanies innovation, Smil offers in this book a clear-eyed corrective to the overpromises that accompany everything from new cures for diseases to AI. He reminds us that even after we go quite far along the invention-development-application trajectory, we may never get anything real to deploy. Or worse, even after we have succeeded by introducing an invention, its future may be marked by underperformance, disappointment, demise, or outright harm.Drawing on his vast breadth of scientific and historical knowledge, Smil explains the difference between invention and innovation, and looks not only at inventions that failed to dominate as promised (such as the airship, nuclear fission, and supersonic flight), but also at those that turned disastrous (leaded gasoline, DDT, and chlorofluorocarbons). And finally, most importantly, he offers a "e;wish list"e; of inventions that we most urgently need to confront the staggering challenges of the twenty-first century.Filled with engaging examples and pragmatic approaches, this book is a sobering account of the folly that so often attends human ingenuity-and how we can, and must, better align our expectations with reality.

The dramatic human story of an epic scientific quest and of one man's forty-year obsession to find a solution to the thorniest scientific dilemma of the day--"the longitude problem."Anyone alive in the eighteenth century would have known that "the longitude problem" was the thorniest scientific dilemma of the day-and had been for centuries. Lacking the ability to measure their longitude, sailors throughout the great ages of exploration had been literally lost at sea as soon as they lost sight of land. Thousands of lives and the increasing fortunes of nations hung on a resolution. One man, John Harrison, in complete opposition to the scientific community, dared to imagine a mechanical solution-a clock that would keep precise time at sea, something no clock had ever been able to do on land. Longitude is the dramatic human story of an epic scientific quest and of Harrison's forty-year obsession with building his perfect timekeeper, known today as the chronometer. Full of heroism and chicanery, it is also a fascinating brief history of astronomy, navigation, and clockmaking, and opens a new window on our world.

Startups og humanitære organisationer eksperimenterer verden over med ny, radikal teknologi i forsøget på at forbedre livsvilkårene for fattige og fordrevne. Håbet er, at nye digitale løsninger kan hjælpe folk til en bedre fremtid; at man med droner og biometriske registre kan levere mere effektiv nødhjælp, og at man med innovation kan understøtte den demokratiske udvikling og sikre menneskerettighederne.Men dataficerede tilgange til problemløsning er ikke garanti for fair eller objektiv behandling af hverken data eller mennesker. Når teknologien udvikles tusindvis af kilometer fra der, hvor den skal hjælpe mennesker i nød, har den ofte form af lappeløsninger, ligesom der sker læk med uoverskuelige konsekvenser for de mest udsatte.Vi har brug for en mere lige og kollektiv teknologiudvikling, der vender eksisterende hierarkier på hovedet og tænker i bredere forandring. Kun sådan kan vi sikre, at interventioner båret af ny teknologi er så relevante, effektive og bæredygtige som muligt.Adam Moe Fejerskov (f. 1987) er senior­forsker ved DIIS, hvor han beskæftiger sig med globale uligheders konsekvenser rundt om i verden, og hvordan uligheder formes af forhold som ny radikal teknologi.

Tids- og metodestudier tager en gammel disciplin med ind i det nye årtis udfordringer i forbindelse med Industri 4.0, robotteknologi og Lean.Tids- og metodestudier lyder for mange som noget meget støvet fra 1950’ernes akkordbaserede produktionssystemer, men erfaringer fra erhvervslivet har vist, at man er nødt til at opbygge et tidsgrundlag for at kunne lave KPI’er (Key Performance Indicators) for sit produktionssystem. Hvis man ikke kender til situationen nu, kan man ikke vurdere, om der er en gevinst ved at investere i robotteknologi.Det har desuden også vist sig, at mange af de robotinstallationer, som allerede nu er i virksomhederne, kan optimeres betydeligt ved at benytte nogle af de samme metodestudier, som man benyttede til at optimere operatører.Moderne teknologi har heldigvis spillet kraftig ind på den måde, man arbejder med discipliner på i dag. Det er ikke længere nødvendigt at stå med et clipboard med stopure for at lave et tidsgrundlag. I dag kan man i stedet optage en videofilm med sin smartphone, eksportere den til et program, hvor man i ro og mag kan benytte en række optimeringsredskaber til sit arbejde.Tids- og metodestudier gennemgår virksomhedens produktionsgrundlag og giver et historisk oprids af baggrunden for måden, hvorpå vi opbygger et produktionssystem i dag. De klassiske metodestudieværktøjer bliver gennemgået for at give en god introduktion til programmet AVIX, som er et af de væsentligste IT-programmer, der benyttes på området i dag.Bogen knytter tids- og metodedisciplinerne sammen med såvel Lean som automatisering baseret på Industri 4.0. Der er herudover et fyldigt kapitel om SMED.Tids- og metodestudier kan anvendes af alle, der arbejder med Lean og industriel optimering, men er tillige lærebog på ingeniøruddannelser, samt på produktionsteknologuddannelsen og øvrige tekniske uddannelser, som bygger på optimering af tekniske eller administrative processer.Jan Pedersen er produktionsingeniør fra Odense Teknikum/Syddansk Universitet og har en Executive MBA fra Henley – University of Reading. Han har arbejdet med tids- og metodeoptimering i mange år i forskellige virksomheder i Danmark. Siden 2007 har han været ansat på Syddansk Universitet som lektor på ingeniøruddannelserne.

Denne håndbog er skrevet som en hjælp til de, der arbejder med at skabe forbedringer gennem tavlemøder. Tavler er det mest anvendte værktøj til procesforbedringer i Danmark. Tavlen er let at tage i brug og taler til vores kultur med inddragelse og diskussion. Desværre har det vist sig, at man mange steder har måtte stoppe, fordi det ikke gav resultater.Denne håndbog indeholder råd om, hvorledes man får tavlemøder i gang og holder dem i gang. Det overordnede budskab er enkelt: Koncentrer jer om at optimere jeres egne arbejdsprocesser og skab kontinuerlige resultater. Det skal gøre en forskel, at man står ved tavlen!Bogen indledes med, at scenen sættes for tavlemøder: Hvad vil det sige at arbejde med kontinuerlige forbedringer? Derefter præsenteres nogle hovedtyper af tavler, således at man vil være i stand til at designe en tavle, som rammer i solar plexus på det aktuelle behov. Videre drøftes, hvilke regler der skal være omkring tavlemøder, hvem styrer, hvilke forventninger osv. Når man således har fået tavlemøderne i gang, vil der typisk komme nogle bump på vejen. De typiske udfordringer omtales, og der gives forslag til, hvorledes man kan tackle dem.Nogle tror at arbejdet med tavlemøder kun foregår omkring tavlen. Det er imidlertid ikke her resultaterne skabes, det sker nemlig i arbejdet mellem tavlemøderne. Håndbogen omtaler de organisatoriske- og processuelle rammer for dette samt ledelses- og medarbejderrollerne.Tavlemøder kan foregå i forskellige udviklingsstadier. I håndbogen opstilles en udviklingsmodel, som kan anvendes til at vælge fokuspunkter for forbedringer, så man videreudvikler eget tavlemøde.Endelig til slut sammenfattes håndbogen i 10 bud for tavlemøder.

In presenting 25 industrial sites of national significance in the context of changing techno-economic paradigms, this book considers the development of Danish industrial landscapes and built-up environments in the period 1840-1970.Three case studies of ports, sugar mills, and cement plants are also presented. The book concludes with two chapters that discuss perceptions and strategies for the conversion of industrial sites, and an overview is given covering the preservation of industrial heritage in Denmark, historically."Although Denmark is often perceived as an agricultural country, industry is a very important sector in the Danish economy, employing a large number of people and having considerable influence on Danish society and culture in general. The appreciation of industrial history, as well as the tangible and intangible remains of industry, is an important heritage."Anne Mette RahbækGeneral Director of the Danish Agency of Culture

Op mod halvdelen af alle de unge, der starter på en erhvervsuddannelse, gennem­fører den ikke. De afbryder uddannelsen, falder fra eller skifter mellem forskellige uddannelser. Mange af dem er blevet en erfaring rigere og starter på en ny uddan­nelse, som de gennemfører. Men en alt for stor del af de unge forlader uddannel­sessystemet uden nogen uddannelse ud over folkeskolen. Den problemstilling sætter denne bog fokus på. Bogens artikler er skrevet af forskere på området fra forskellige forskningsinstitutioner. De formidler her ny viden om årsager til frafaldet i erhvervsuddannelserne og giver vurderinger af en række tiltag, som skolerne har iværksat for at begrænse frafaldet. Der tegnes et nuanceret billede af den gruppe af unge, som varigt forlader uddannelsessystemet uden anden uddannelse end folkeskolen. En række artikler lader eleverne komme til orde som bidrag til nye måder at forstå frafaldsproble­merne på, mens andre artikler belyser dilemmaer for lærerne i forhold til frafald. Frafald i erhvervsuddannelserne giver en kvalificeret og nuanceret forståelse af et omfattende samfunds­mæssigt problem – og dermed også bidrag til at finde nye løsninger.

Hvordan ser den digitale modstand ud? Den som mange af os i det stille udøver, uden for mediernes og politikernes søgelys?Flere og flere har et ambivalent forhold til de digitale teknologier, som omgiver os. Vi kan ikke undvære dem, men de forstyrrer os også i vores dagligdag.Jesper Balslev gennemgår i denne bog årsagerne til, at digitaliseringen ikke har indfriede mange af sine løfter. Han kigger også på de mange velbegrundede motiver til digitale fravalg og de teknologier, der i dag er på markedet og kan hjælpe os med et fravalg.Med denne bog piller Jesper Balslev debatten, der forhindrer os i at rykke fremad, fra hinanden og giver ny substans til de oversete tematikker inden for digitalt overforbrug, sundhed, eksistentialisme, bæredygtighed og privatliv.

Point clouds are deemed to be one of the foundational pillars in representing the 3D digital world, despite irregular topologies among discrete points. Recently, advancements in sensor technologies that acquire point cloud data for flexible and scalable geometric representation have paved the way for the development of new ideas, methodologies, and solutions in countless remote sensing applications. State-of-the-art sensors are capable of capturing and describing objects in a scene by using dense point clouds from various platforms (satellites, aerial, UAVs, vehicle-borne, backpacks, handheld, and static terrestrial), perspectives (nadir, oblique, and side view), spectra (multispectral), and granularity (point density and completeness). Meanwhile, the ever-expanding application areas of point cloud processing have already covered not only conventional domains in geospatial analysis but also manufacturing, civil engineering, construction, transportation, ecology, forestry, mechanical engineering, etc. Readers can learn about the latest innovative technologies for generating, processing, and analyzing point cloud data from these contributions, which helps to understand the challenges faced by point cloud data and develop new 3D applications.

This book investigates in detail the mathematical methods and computation methods in efficient solution of some open nonlinear seepage flow problems involved in engineering problems. Developed engineering technologies and some relevant practical field applications are also provided. The introduced open nonlinear problems include nonlinear quadratic pressure gradient term problem, compressible gas seepage flow problem and low-velocity non-Darcy seepage flow problem. Studies on these nonlinear seepage flow problems have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines, such as geo-energy engineering, civil and environmental engineering, fluid mechanics, applied mathematics and computation. In particular, the book systematically establishes a fundamental theory for a strongly nonlinear problem of low-velocity non-Darcy seepage flow from a new perspective of moving boundary, while emphasizing the usage of mathematical linearization transformation methods and computational methods into the analytical and numerical solution of the strongly nonlinear partial differential equations. Sufficient knowledge of mathematics is always introduced ahead of model solution to assist readers. And the procedure of strict formula deduction in the model solution process is provided in detail. High-solution figures and tables from model solution are rich in the book. Therefore, it is very helpful for the readers to master the nonlinear model solution methods and engineering technologies. The book is intended for upper undergraduate students and graduate students who are interested in engineering technology, fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, researchers and engineers working on geo-energy science and engineering and field applications.

The Internet's great success has been essentially based on the simplicity and versatility of its TCP/IP architecture, as it imposes almost no restrictions on either the underlying network technology or the data being transmitted. In essence, applications built on top of TCP/IP get a point-to-point channel that can be used to transmit arbitrary information. This approach has served quite satisfactorily for many years, but it is no longer well suited to some of the new communication paradigms now being used on the Internet. Nowadays, most applications running on top of the Internet are no longer interested in using a point-to-point channel to exchange traffic between two endpoints. In contrast, what they want is to obtain some piece of information that is available in the network somewhere. The current use of load balancers and cache overlay networks is an interim solution to address this mismatch between the network communication model and the needs of applications, but such a solution suffers from significant shortcomings. Information-centric networks (ICNs), particularly Named Data Networking (NDN) and CCNx, offer a service where users can directly obtain information, regardless of location. This service suits current network uses and can provide the traditional point-to-point communication service if desired. This Special Issue highlights and presents recent advances in different problems related to using information-centric network architecture.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Ingenieurwissenschaften - Maschinenbau, Note: 2.7, Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Werkstofftechnik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, den Restaustenitgehalt im Kaltarbeitsstahl X153CrMoV12- 1 in Abhängigkeit der Austenitisierungstemperatur zu bestimmen und zusätzlich die Anwendbarkeit unterschiedlicher Analyseverfahren zu bewerten. Wie oben erwähnt, wird dieser KAS mit unterschiedlichen RA-Gehalten durch verschiedene Wärmebehandlungen eingestellt. Dazu wurden verschiedene Methoden angewendet. Diese Methoden sind zum einen die Quantitative Bildanalyse mit der Punktrastermethode und der Bildbinarisierung. Zum anderen wurde mit der Röntgendiffraktometrie (XRD) gearbeitet. Die Restaustenitgehalte wurden anhand der exakt gleichen Proben mit den unterschiedlichen Verfahren bestimmt und anschließend ausgewertet und analysiert. Die Verfahren wurden hinsichtlich des benötigten Zeitaufwands und hinsichtlich der erzielten Genauigkeit analysiert. Hierbei ist darauf zu achten, wie groß der Arbeitsaufwand der einzelnen Methoden ist. Es gibt Methoden, die sehr zeitaufwändig sind, dafür aber eine gute Genauigkeit liefern. Andererseits gibt es auch Methoden, die vom Zeitaufwand geringer sind, jedoch keine gute Genauigkeit liefern. Bereits mit der ersten Messung, beispielsweise mit der Punktrastermethode, konnten zielführende Werte ermittelt werden. Diese haben sich mit der Zeit bestätigt, da wiederholt positive Ergebnisse bei der Analyse erzielt wurden.

How the internet's memory infrastructure developed--averting a "digital dark age"--and introduced a golden age of historical memory.In early 1996, the web was ephemeral. But by 2001, the internet was forever. How did websites transform from having a brief life to becoming long-lasting? Drawing on archival material from the Internet Archive and exclusive interviews, Ian Milligan's Averting the Digital Dark Age explores how Western society evolved from fearing a digital dark age to building the robust digital memory we rely on today.By the mid-1990s, the specter of a "digital dark age" haunted libraries, portending a bleak future with no historical record that threatened cyber obsolescence, deletion, and apathy. People around the world worked to solve this impending problem. In San Francisco, technology entrepreneur Brewster Kahle launched his scrappy nonprofit, Internet Archive, filling tape drives with internet content. Elsewhere, in Washington, Canberra, Ottawa, and Stockholm, librarians developed innovative new programs to safeguard digital heritage.Cataloging worries among librarians, technologists, futurists, and writers from WWII onward, through early practitioners, to an extended case study of how September 11 prompted institutions to preserve thousands of digital artifacts related to the attacks, Averting the Digital Dark Age explores how the web gained a long-lasting memory. By understanding this history, we can equip our society to better grapple with future internet shifts.

Taming Your New Refrigerator" is best read before you buy the refrigerator. It is meant to be an aid to anyone who is going to buy a new refrigerator or who has questions about one just purchased. It contains suggestions about what to look for as well as what to avoid when buying a refrigerator. People who would ¿ nd this book helpful include people buying a new refrigerator, people remodeling a kitchen, landlords, home economics teachers and perhaps realtors. Chapter topics include buying a refrigerator, making sure house is suitable and handling "no-cool" situations. The book can help you avoid mistakes I see every day as a refrigerator repair technician. It is the result of years of experience repairing and seeing the same mistakes in installation, purchasing and care day-after-day. Many of these mistakes result in service calls, which cost you, the consumer, directly or indirectly. My belief is that over the life of the refrigerator you will save a lot more than the cost of this book if you use the information it contains.

Women make over 80 percent of healthcare decisions in the U.S. yet have been excluded from designing the health system for too long. It was only 1993 when women and people of color were officially included in clinical trials. Heart attacks are the number one killer of women worldwide, but women are 50 percent more likely to be given a wrong diagnosis. Only four percent of all healthcare research and development is focused on women's health issues. From periods and childbirth to menopause, female pain has been normalized, as society shrugs and says "Welcome to being a woman" instead of coming up with better solutions.In The Vagina Business, award-winning journalist Marina Gerner PhD takes an eye-opening-and often times shocking-look at the inequities when it comes to scientific research and the funding of female-focused health companies. She exposes the obstacles entrepreneurs around the world face in the boardroom and beyond. Most of all, she shows us that it doesn't have to be this way. From a life-saving bra to non-hormonal contraception and new takes on fertility and menopause, she shines a light on innovation that matters. Women should not be denied solutions to health issues just because people are embarrassed to talk about vaginas. We deserve much better.
