Business Information Technology Strategy - EHR System Case StudyAderonmu Tomi
This document discusses implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system through a business information technology strategy. It notes that while a pediatrist and psychiatrist still use paper records, an internist uses a client-server EHR system. The passage also mentions that the federal government has allocated $22 billion to help healthcare providers implement EHR systems. Finally, it states that over 80% of healthcare providers have implemented and started using an EHR system as of 2013.

The document discusses developing a UAV system for the energy sector. It proposes using autonomous blimps that can refuel quadcopters in-flight, extending mission ranges. Initial interviews found energy companies interested in UAVs for inspections and monitoring. They suggested application areas and provided feedback. This led to modifying the prototype to include blimp-refueled quadcopters. The system is technically feasible and could efficiently execute various energy missions. A case study found the system could save a company over 25k euros per daily inspection mission compared to manned helicopters currently used. The energy sector in Greece represents a 100 million euro market for activities UAVs could assist with.
The document provides information about the Tactical Technology Office (TTO) at DARPA. It summarizes that TTO aims to rapidly develop new military capabilities through high-risk, high-reward projects. It focuses on ground, maritime, air, and space systems. TTO seeks technologies that provide strategic and tactical advantages, like new platforms and weapons. The document outlines several current and potential future TTO projects aimed at amplifying soldier effectiveness, controlling the sea and air, and striking targets at long ranges.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled Biz Models for Hi-Tech Products to analyze the business model for ETS’s testing and simulation services for carbon nanotubes (CNTs). CNTs have unique characteristics that make them useful for many hi-tech systems for the military and consumer electronics. However, life cycle testing and simulation are needed for CNTs to be effectively used in these applications. ETS provides these kinds of services for military and consumer electronics firms and would like to add CNTs to its expertise. These slides describe the specific value proposition for military and consumer electronic firms and other aspects of the business model such as the method of value capture, scope of activities, and method of strategic control.
DARPA is exploring new space technologies to reduce costs and increase access to space. It has several programs including ALASA, which aims to enable launches from aircraft anywhere in the world on short notice, and XS-1, which seeks to develop a reusable spaceplane that can launch small payloads to orbit routinely and affordably. DARPA's portfolio focuses on issues like affordable and responsive space access, disaggregation of large satellites, and space situational awareness.

IDGA is excited to announce registration is now open for the 7th Annual Military Radar Summit – the premier military radar community event of the year! We had an excellent turnout last year and are building on this success through innovative sessions and speakers for 2014.
This year’s event is on the “business of radars” that seeks to bridge gaps between DOD, US Government, OEM’s, subcontractors, academia, and businesses of all sizes. It provides a forum for radar stakeholders to look to the future of military radar while examining projects aimed at prolonging the lives of current US military radars.
The document discusses the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) radio telescope project in Africa. Key points include:
- The SKA will be the largest radio telescope in the world and building it in Africa is a major opportunity for scientific and economic development.
- It will consist of thousands of antennas across Africa and Australia and generate exabytes of data per day, requiring advanced computing capabilities.
- Building the SKA in Africa can attract young scientists, drive skills development in areas like computing, and potentially lead to Nobel Prizes from African researchers.
- South Africa is hosting the SKA through precursors like MeerKAT, which is helping test technologies and train scientists and engineers. Other African countries
Aerospace and defence telemetry is the process of gathering, logging, and sending data and measurements in real time from defence systems, aircraft, satellites, and missiles. For the purpose of observing, analysing, and managing these systems while they are in use, this data is essential. The telemetry systems are outfitted with an array of sensors and communication devices to guarantee precise and prompt data collecting and transfer.https://aviationanddefensemarketreports.com/product/global-defense-telemetry-market/
Modernising and renovating aircraft is crucial to boosting safety and decreasing downtime. There are benefits to modernising the airspace, including increased efficiency, better routing options, and enhanced pilot communication. New components and technology need to be installed in order to successfully interact with air traffic controllers, perform multidimensional aircraft tracking, and improve navigation by creating images of the forward external scene's terrain. When these modernization projects are implemented well, they help reduce carbon emissions, enhance air quality, and save gasoline.https://aviationanddefensemarketreports.com/product/global-defense-telemetry-market/

This seminar presentation summarizes stealth technology, its principles and applications. Stealth technology uses shapes, materials and other techniques to reduce detection by radar, sonar and infrared systems. It has various applications in naval warfare, allowing ships and submarines to conduct secret missions undetectably. Current uses include patrolling and spying, while future development focuses on improved designs and payloads. In conclusion, stealth technology remains an important topic despite counter-technologies challenging complete invisibility.
This document outlines a project to develop a low-cost robotic tape library system using open source technology. The system was created to provide a cost-effective data storage solution for the Square Kilometre Array radio telescope project. An open source based prototype was created that supports one tape drive, has over twice the storage capacity of a comparable commercial system, and costs around 70% less. Open source tape library systems are suitable for applications that involve infrequently accessed cold data stored for long periods, and can provide affordable long-term data storage for research institutes and archives.

Superconductive and Magnetically levitated Submarine subsystems
Overview
• Compared to conventional motor, Superconducting technology allows motor to be larger
torque and more compact. These benefits would lead submarine to improvement of the Anti-
detection capability and expansion underwater time thanks to faster maximum cruse speed.
• Restriction of conventional motor due to torque constraint is required to be larger propulsion
size. In order to address this issue, “Superconducting motor” with high power density plays an
crucial role to be higher torque as well as smaller motor size.

28. Cooperative Research with Australia
1. Overview
・ JP: Naval Systems Research Center (NSRC), ATLA / AU: Defence Science & Technology Group (DSTG)
・ Research Term: Approx. 4years (2015.12~)
2. Object
3. Prospect
• Improvement the accuracy of estimation about propulsion capabilities or silence degrees.
• Applying the results to various ships because the model used for this research shapes
general cruising vehicles.
Estimation of cavitation around propellers
Cavitation: the phenomenon of generating
bubbles around rotating propellers Flow field: flow velocity or pressure
Evaluation and estimation of the flow field
