This semi-technical summary of the X–15 program is directed toward the less publicized aspects of its achievements.
The key to making big data initiatives a success lies within making the produced data more digestible and usable in decision making, rather than making it just ‘more,’ resulting in the creation of an environment wherein information is used to generate real impact. Put another way, the survival of Big Data is more about making the right data(not just higher volume) available to the right people (not just higher variety) at the right time (not just higher velocity)....

The Department of Defense (DOD) anticipates the realization of biomimetic bird and two-inch, insect-sized systems within the 2015–47 period. Although robot systems of one millimeter or smaller are not explicitly specified in current DOD and Air Force technology road maps, the technological aims towards this size can be clearly inferred from official documents. This research assesses the likelihood of, and barriers to, the realization of true microrobots and nanorobots (defined as submillimeter-sized robots of micro-meter and nanometer proportions, respectively) that can perform in military applications by 2035. This research finds that the realization of true microrobots for military applications by 2035 is unlikely, except for a single case of microrobots....
Col Thompson, in his concentrated focus on China’s military space applications, examines PRC ground, space, counterspace, and space policy aspects. His principal findings: China has plans to construct a new launch site in the deep south; PRC telemetry, tracking and com-mand capacities are improving; China has the ability to conduct limited intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions from space; the PRC is pursuing a counterspace capability most likely using satellite jammers and anti-satellites (possibly parasitic or nano-satellites). Col Thompson concludes that while China’s space program does not now constitute a global threat, the PRC is pursuing space capabilities that will increase its regional influence, and deny an adversary certain uses of space....
Apesar de haver uma literatura grande sobre o LaTeX, uma boa parte dos trabalhos disponíveis é relativamente antiga e não contém os avanços dos últimos anos. Em virtude disto, resolvemos escrever um texto sobre o LaTeX que, de uma forma simples e auto contida, apresente as opções mais recentes que estenderam e facilitaram o aprendizado e aplicação. No livro, além do básico sobre o LaTeX, acrescentaram-se tópicos sobre como elaborar apresentações, elaborar monografias, dissertações e teses, elaborar uma prova com gabarito, incluir arquivos multimídia, elaborar pôsteres para apresentação em congresso, usar recursos mais modernos para digitação de equações longas e sistemas de equações, elaborar bibliografias, incluir um índice remissivo, incluir sumário etc. A bibliografia do livro é constituída quase que exclusivamente de arquivos disponíveis na Internet e é feito um comentário sobre cada citação, além de permitir o acesso através de hiperligação ("hyperlink"). Ao longo do texto são citadas as referências que podem aprofundar os tópicos, caso o leitor sinta necessidade. No segundo semestre de 2013 foram feitos diversos ac...

Captioning video not only makes video accessible to the deaf and hard-of-hearing, but there are other compelling reasons for it as well. These are also good talking points to convince others of the need to caption video. • Captioned videos have better user retention of the video content. • The video’s transcripts are searchable, so you will get better Search Engine Optimization (SEO), which may give you a leg up on your competition. • Captioned video also opens your market reach to a whole new segment of paying customers - the deaf! • It’s the law. Many videos that are provided to the public must be captioned either due to federal communication law, or merely a company’s policy regarding accessibility. • Language learning relies heavily on captioned video. • If the viewer is in a noisy area and does not have access to headphones, the captions can be read while watching the video. • Similarly, if the viewer does not have headphones and cannot turn up the volume due to the need to keep noise to a minimum (like in a library or nursery), the captions are there to provide what is being spoken....

Le lancement du concept de Google AuthorShip apporte encore plus d’intérêt au profil Google+. Et ce, dans la mesure où il permet à Google de mettre plus en valeur et de favoriser le profil Google+ de chaque auteur identifié sur ses pages de résultats. C’est d’ailleurs ce qu’a récemment confirmé Eric Schmidt, Président du Conseil d’Administration de Google. Par conséquent, bien optimiser son profil permet de tirer avantage de cette faveur que Google compte accorder aux auteurs ayant créé un profil Google+ et l’ayant lié à tous leurs contenus. Découvrez donc dans cet eBook gratuit comment vous y prendre pour réussir l’optimisation de votre profil Google+ qui va de plus en plus influencer votre classement sur le moteur Google....
Google+ est le réseau social de Google lancé en juin 2011 et qui compterait plus de 550 millions d'utilisateurs dont 345 millions d'actifs au dernier pointage. On pourrait penser qu'avec Google+, Google essaie de concurrencer Facebook sur son propre terrain en espérant, bien sûr, prendre sa place de leader dans ce créneau. Mais, en fait, ce n'est pas vraiment la place de leader qui intéresse réellement Google. Même si cela ne lui déplairait pas d'occuper cette place. La raison principale pour laquelle Google a lancé Google+ réside surtout dans la récupération des données personnelles des internautes. Car, avoir plus de données de ses utilisateurs, c'est bien entendu pouvoir fournir des résultats personnalisés et surtout pouvoir vendre de la publicité très ciblée à chacun d'eux. Google envisage donc, avec Google+, de changer le monde de l'internet en profondeur. Et pour ce faire, il lui faut plus de données personnelles, une meilleure identification des individus et plus d'intégration de tous ses services. Google+ n'est pas encore un produit fini comme l'ont été Buzz ou Orkut. Mais, il bel et bien un projet de Goo...

I submit there are two ways we can use limited numbers of prototype systems to ensure we learn relevant tactical lessons before we have to fight:(1) capitalizing on interactive computing technologies to better develop requirements and tactics throughout the system life cycle and (2) changing our concept of prototypes from the buying of one or two “experimental”items to procuring entire “prototypical” units....

Lt Col Anthony Mastalir has done policy makers a welcome service by exploring the enigma wrapped in a conundrum which is Chinese space policy, focusing on the Chinese kinetic energy antisatellite (KE-ASAT) test of January 2007. That test ended a de facto moratorium on KE-ASAT tests which the United States and Russia had observed for over two decades. It also announced the arrival of a new player in strategic space, forcing a reevaluation of US capabilities in space as well as Chinese intentions there. Colonel Mastalir examines both that reevaluation and those intentions, relying on open-source material, particularly from Chinese strategic and military analysts....

This study investigates Europe’s motives to develop the independent satellite navigation system known as Galileo despite the existence of America’s successful global positioning system (GPS). The study begins by analyzing both systems to familiarize the reader with global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) and to provide an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of GPS and Galileo, as well as the systems’ similarities and differences. Although the two systems have different founding principles, they employ similar infrastructures and operational concepts. In the short term, Galileo will provide better accuracy for civilian users until GPS upgrades take effect. But performance is only part of the rationale. The author contends that Europe’s pursuit of Galileo is driven by a combination of reasons, including performance, independence, and economic incentive. With Galileo, Europe hopes to achieve political, security, and technological independence from the United States....

Odatã cu creşterea exponenţială a popularităţii Web-ului - instrument primordial de utilizare a Internetului - o activitate din ce în ce mai profitabilã a început sã fie exploatatã de cãtre un numãr crescând de companii: publicitatea şi marketingul electronic, instrumente ce oferã posibilităţi enorme la un cost minimal. Cu o rată de creştere mare a numărului de utilizatori, activitatea de marketing pe Internet devine mult mai uşoară decât cea prin metodele clasice. Dacă se ia în consideraţie faptul că o campanie tipică de marketing determină o rată de răspuns de cel puţin 2%, teoretic rezultă un număr de răspunsuri pe Internet de câteva mii, cel puţin. Din ce în ce mai multe întreprinderi - din toate sectoarele economice - încep sã realizeze potenţialul enorm al noului mediu de comunicaţie electronicã, Internetul. Pentru a avea acces la un auditoriu de câteva milioane de "spectatori" - şi potenţiali clienţi - marile reţele de televiziune oferã preţuri de ordinul zecilor sau sutelor de mii de dolari pentru spoturi publicitare de 30 de secunde; pentru a atinge o asemenea audientã, doar giganţi ca IBM, Coca Cola sau Ford îşi pute...
