Digital engineering accelerates research and development and improves manufacturing processes while reducing costs. On June 16, join HCL in the upcoming webinar, DFX Strategy Improves Program Performance and Digital Transformation, and find out how […]
This story was originally published by Yale Environment 360 and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. In 1908 the U.S. government seized some 18,000 acres of land from the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes to create the National Bison Range in the heart of their reservation in the mountain-ringed Mission Valley of western Montana. While the goal […]
IT/OT convergence isn’t just a concept, a catchy mnemonic, nor a convenient abbreviation jumble It’s a very real and significant challenge facing manufacturers. At the crux of the issue is how information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) have historically approached the planning, structure and governance associated with their respective technology layers. In general, manufacturers […]
The electrical double layer capacitor (EDLC) — most often called a “supercapacitor” and sometimes an “ultracapacitor” — is an amazing passive energy-storage component. As a result of its high capacitance of multiple farads and small size, it provides high-density energy storage by both volume and weight. In some remote sensing, IoT, and energy harvesting-sourced applications, […]

McDonald’s announced earlier this month that it was deploying an AI chatbot to handle its drive-thru orders, but it turns out it might break privacy law. The chatbot is the product of a voice recognition company McDonald’s snapped up in 2019 called Apprente which is now known as McD Tech Labs. McDonald’s deployed the chatbots […]
I’m a small phone person. I have narrow hands and jeans with tiny pockets. That’s mostly why I hung onto my first generation iPhone SE for a very long time. But I’ve been longing for a phone with more up-to-date features—particularly a great camera. And once I was vaccinated, going to stores again, and contemplating […]
During the height of the pandemic, tech companies were running dry on computer chips for their products but were optimistic there would be a rebound once everything settled. Manufacturers were running out of materials, shipping was at a crawl and those same tech companies chewed through their old inventory just to put anything on the […]
