NASA Spinoffs Help Fight Coronavirus, Clean Pollution, Grow Food, MoreDESMOND YUEN
NASA's mission of exploration requires new technologies, software, and research – which show up in daily life. The agency’s Spinoff 2022 publication tells the stories of companies, start-ups, and entrepreneurs transforming these innovations into cutting-edge products and services that boost the economy, protect the planet, and save lives.
“The value of NASA is not confined to the cosmos but realized throughout our country – from hundreds of thousands of well-paying jobs to world-leading climate science, understanding the universe and our place within it, to technology transfers that make life easier for folks around the world,” NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said. “As we combat the coronavirus pandemic and promote environmental justice and sustainability, NASA technology is essential to address humanity’s greatest challenges.”
Spinoff 2022 features more than 45 companies using NASA technology to advance manufacturing techniques, detoxify polluted soil, improve weather forecasting, and even clean the air to slow the spread of viruses, including coronavirus.
"NASA's technology portfolio contains many innovations that not only enable exploration but also address challenges and improve life here at home," said Jim Reuter, associate administrator of the agency’s Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) in Washington. "We’ve captured these examples of successful commercialization of NASA technology and research, not only to share the benefits of the space program with the public, but to inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs."
This year in Spinoff, readers will learn more about:
How companies use information from NASA’s vertical farm to sustainably grow fresh produce
New ways that technology developed for insulation in space keeps people warm in the great outdoors
How a system created for growing plants in space now helps improve indoor air quality and reduces the spread of airborne viruses like coronavirus
How phase-change materials – originally developed to help astronauts wearing spacesuits – absorb, hold, and release heat to help keep race car drivers cool
A Survey on Security and Privacy Issues in Edge Computing-Assisted Internet o...DESMOND YUEN
Internet of Things (IoT) is an innovative paradigm
envisioned to provide massive applications that are now part of
our daily lives. Millions of smart devices are deployed within
complex networks to provide vibrant functionalities including
communications, monitoring, and controlling of critical infrastructures. However, this massive growth of IoT devices and the corresponding huge data traffic generated at the edge of the network created additional burdens on the state-of-the-art
centralized cloud computing paradigm due to the bandwidth and
resources scarcity. Hence, edge computing (EC) is emerging as
an innovative strategy that brings data processing and storage
near to the end users, leading to what is called EC-assisted IoT.
Although this paradigm provides unique features and enhanced
quality of service (QoS), it also introduces huge risks in data security and privacy aspects. This paper conducts a comprehensive survey on security and privacy issues in the context of EC-assisted IoT. In particular, we first present an overview of EC-assisted IoT including definitions, applications, architecture, advantages, and challenges. Second, we define security and privacy in the context of EC-assisted IoT. Then, we extensively discuss the major classifications of attacks in EC-assisted IoT and provide possible solutions and countermeasures along with the related research efforts. After that, we further classify some security and privacy issues as discussed in the literature based on security services and based on security objectives and functions. Finally, several open challenges and future research directions for secure EC-assisted IoT paradigm are also extensively provided.

BUILDING AN OPEN RAN ECOSYSTEM FOR EUROPEDESMOND YUEN
Five companies—Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telecom Italia, Telefónica, and Vodafone—published a report outlining why they feel Europe as a whole is lagging behind other regions such as the U.S. and Japan in developing Open RAN. The companies point to both a lack of companies developing key components, notably silicon chips, for Open RAN technologies, as well as the need to get incumbent equipment vendors Ericsson and Nokia on board with Open RAN development.
An Introduction to Semiconductors and IntelDESMOND YUEN
Did you know that...
The average American adult spends over 12 hours a day engaged with electronics — computers, mobile devices, TVs, cars, to name just a few — powered by semiconductors.
A common chip the size of your smallest fingernail is only about 1-millimeter thick but contains roughly 30 different layers of components and wires (called interconnects) that make up its complex circuitry.
Intel owns nearly 70,000 active patents worldwide. Its first — “Resistor for Integrated Circuit,” #3,631,313 — was granted to Gordon Moore on Dec. 28, 1971.
Those are a few fun facts in a high-level presentation that provides an easy-to-understand look at the world of semiconductors, why they matter and the role Intel plays in their creation.
Changing demographics and economic growth bloomDESMOND YUEN
This document discusses key trends in global demographics and their implications. It notes that while population growth rates have declined globally, absolute numbers continue to rise significantly each decade. Less developed regions now encompass most of the world's population and will continue to see the vast majority of population increases. Mortality declines and fertility declines have driven major shifts in population age structures. Younger populations in places like Africa and South Asia may benefit economic growth if policies support labor force participation and human capital development, while aging societies globally face challenges supporting retirees that policies aim to address.
