Astronomy by Cheryl Goldsleger – Video
Astronomy by Cheryl Goldsleger This series of six videos created by artist Cheryl Goldsleger is an online extension of her exhibit “The NAS Project” on display at the NAS from Feb 4, – July 26, 2013 at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington DC (www.cpnas.org) Artist's Statement Architecture is more than its foundation, walls and various materials. It exists for reasons of which we may or may not be aware; yet over time a building accrues numerous narrative histories. The NAS Project exhibition revolves around two central questions: Why does this building exist and what does it embody Continue reading
Mountain Range on Hawaiian Island Dissolving – Video
Mountain Range on Hawaiian Island Dissolving A mountain range on Hawaiian Island is dissolving, according to researchers. According to a study from Brigham Young University, a mountain range on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu is slowly dissolving due to groundwater removing mass from within the mountain. The researchers say Oahu will eventually become flat like Midway Island. Continue reading
Comprehension Of Graphics – Video
Comprehension Of Graphics ll4.me Comprehension Of Graphics Graphic displays such as charts, graphs, diagrams, and maps play in important role today in the design and presentation of instructional materials education. There is also a strong need in scientific, technical and administrative fields to visually present facts, laws, principles etc. The increasing use of computer-based learning environments has also become an important field where the visual presentation of information plays a central role.

Applications Of Complex Adaptive Systems – Video
Applications Of Complex Adaptive Systems ll4.me Applications Of Complex Adaptive Systems The universe is a massive system of systems — for example, ecological systems, social systems, commodity and stock markets. These systems are complex, constantly adapting to their environment, and many are essential to the very existence of human beings. To fully understand these systems, complex adaptive systems research uses systemic inquiry to build multi-level and multidisciplinary representations of reality to study these systems Continue reading

MTA SZTAKI – Research Laboratory on Engineering
MTA SZTAKI – Research Laboratory on Engineering Management Intelligence The Laboratory on Engineering and Management Intelligence (EMI) of SZTAKI (the laboratory to represent SZTAKI in the Smart Automation project) is involved in research and elaboration of techniques applicable to handling complex production and business systems working in the uncertain, changing environments, with special emphasis on artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches. The main research goals of the laboratory are as follows: bull; modelling, control and optimization of technical and business processes, bull; handling changes and disturbances in complex systems bull; advanced production planning and scheduling bull; distributed modelling of extended enterprises and production networks bull; modelling and simulation of large production and business systems, digital factories In large-scale national R D projects the Laboratory has been involved in industry-oriented research on the field of production planning, scheduling and the management of supply networks. During the past 5 years we have developed generic models and methods for project-oriented, finite-capacity production planning and applied them in pilot production planners developed for the power and machine industries Continue reading
Health care is voters' top priority
Politicians take note: Australian voters think improved hospitals and health care should be the federal government’s number one priority. They also think the government should pay for it. Health care was clearly placed by Australians ahead of other key policy areas, including keeping the national economy strong, employment and infrastructure, new consumer research released on Friday by Research Australia says.
