What is a creative way to present project on 20th century inventions?
Posted by admin in Technologies on July 26, 2010
My project is on post-World War II inventions (1950-1990).
I’m already thinking of making a light bulb shaped poster board, but I want it to be unique.
Any ideas?
yes. make the paragraphs like little flaps that fold upwards and stic with velcro and then use chains to pull them down llike a light chain.

Evaluating New Glass Technologies In The Light Of Market Demand
Posted by admin in Technologies on July 19, 2010
A skill set that the glass making industry’s supply chain needs to acquire is a farmer’s instinct where one is able to separate the wheat from the chaff when evaluating the feasibility and viability of new product offerings.
Make no mistake about it; there will be an opportunistic and very profitable cadre of products for the astute customer. It will be up to each individual company to determine whether the new technology offering is a lemon or lemonade. This may be difficult because the future will not be an extrapolation of the past; nor will there be a clear line of demarcation. Trends will emerge from various parts of the globe as well as across industry migration. Since these new products and new markets will emerge at different “clock speeds” in each region of a country as well as the world, a global vision and awareness enhances and secures competitive advantage.
While everyone would like to be on the leading edge of this movement, there is the caveat of being too early and falling on the bleeding edge. There will be the tendency to over-hype new offerings with fuzzy jargons. This leaves the trade open for wild claims and illusions. It won’t take many failures or false starts to badly damage the image and reputation to our highly visible industry.
To cite a recent example, consider when segments of this industry introduced a new product. In hindsight, was it no maintenance glass, low maintenance, easier to clean, only works with distilled water, or when the sun is shining. The gap between what was promised and what is delivered defines not just a company’s credibility but also that of the entire industry. On the other hand, when great products are developed – and delivered in a timely manner to the marketplace–a great brand is created and a reputation generated that makes the next generation of product easier to bring to market.
While glass has been highly coveted for literally thousands of years, in a technological sense, this millennium will mark the renaissance of a new and different “glass age.”
As an example, it’s clear that the western economic model of fossil fuel based throwaway economy is not viable for the world. A new economic paradigm will be powered by renewable sources of energy and will recycle materials comprehensively. No sector of the global economy will be untouched by this environmental revolution. Already in some stock exchanges there are “green futures.” In this new economy, companies will be winners or losers. Those who participate in building the new economy will be the winners. Those who cling to the past risk becoming part of it.
The key to building a global economy for sustained economic progress is the creation of an honest marker to tell the ecological truth so that the market can allocate resources with total cost efficiencies. A properly defined green ideology will transcend politics — it will mobilize liberals, conservatives, businesses, and environmentalists on a common agenda.
One possible case in point is the pilot program proposed by the Clinton Foundation. As part of the organization, former U.S President Bill Clinton has created a coalition of 16 of the world’s biggest cities and five banks with a pledge is of up to $5 billion in loans to upgrade energy intensive heating, cooling, and lighting systems in older buildings. Four international energy service companies would certify and guarantee a 20 to 50 percent reduction in energy costs to pay back the loans with the accrued savings. In addition to saving money, it will make money, and create jobs while favorably affecting climate change.
Politically this program would not be a millstone on economies of rich nor developing countries while shrinking the world’s carbon footprint with a pro-growth policy. While climate change is a global predicament, it requires local action to make a real difference. Finally this would help redesign the materials segment of the economy so that Mother Nature is compatible with Father Greed since the throwaway economy will be but a passing aberration.

what inventions took place in India during the industrial revolution?
Posted by admin in Technologies on July 16, 2010
Explain the various inventions and discoveries that were made during the industrial revolution in India. have to make a power point presentation. so just need the topics for them. at least 12.
Thats a tough question.
Industrial revolution was hallmark to Britain and Western Europe. So technology mostly came after the East India Company (English & Dutch business venture) settled in. Before the British Rule, India did not have railroads, heavy machineries etc (in general). However, there’s always been plenty of raw material that fueled the industrial revolution – namely iron ore, cotton, coal. Here’s a wiki page that might be helpful. Its a list of inventions from India.

I spotted only 2 or 3 inventions that came during the 18th or 19th century from India.
3d House Walkthrough – How Modern Technologies Work for Real Estate Business
Posted by admin in Technologies on July 8, 2010
Nowadays, everybody considers 3D as a quite standard thing – we have tons of that kind of media around us, such as 3D computer games, 3D movies and so on. This virtual environment is getting deeper in our lives and to be honest, people like it. For many, it’s like being a part of the future, like touching something that we could have only read about in science fiction books some 30 years ago.
Sometimes we do not really understand that 3D is already something that we expect, not only consume as a product in the Movies and pay attention to in TV ads. Speaking in terms of the usual business based on goods production, sometimes we wish there was a 3D model or animation of some product before we buy it.
A major part of all sales is done online these days, using the ever growing sales channel – the Internet. You can find nearly everything on E-bay or Amazon, if not – there must be something you are looking for in the Internet itself, with all its billions of web pages and millions of online businesses. And when speaking about some unique product that needs more info for the buyer to make a decision – a higher level of the product visualization is required.
Here we go – Real Estate business sector, with thousands of agencies and millions of properties. And thousands of buyers too! I was one of them recently.
Having browsed a number of local real state agencies’ web sites and their offers, I was a bit concerned about the size of the information presented – merely enough to give a brief description. A couple of low resolution photos, usually giving no solid picture of the interior, sometimes a graphical 2D floor plan – and that’s it.
My mind was demanding something more visual, a video from inside the house for example. But, everyone knows that videos are big files and internet is not a cable television and I understood that technically it would be rather naive to expect it there. Eventually, I found a link that brought me to what was called a “3D House Walkthrough” – a computer graphic animation that literally let me walk through the house, around the house and even the back yard.
Now that was a nice discovery. Something that I thought I would never find appeared to be there – well, I never doubted that if there is will there is … an Internet. My further research on such functionality for Real Estate web sites was not very promising, as I could not find anything else of that kind. To my understanding, the majority of agencies either underestimate the power of 3D or just are not aware of such services at all.
www.House-Walk.com was the 3D house flythrough video developer, and I say Thank You, it was nice walking that virtual house without a need to drive miles to it.
To my belief, this kind of 3D presentation is highly demanded and will soon be a wide spread feature on every Real Estate web site.

Visibility Eto ERP the Solution for Nexgen Technologies
Posted by admin in Technologies on June 29, 2010
Nexgen required a solution that could give them the controls and effective technology in combination with comprehensive functionality for their complex manufacturing requirements.
Nexgen Technologies is an emerging leader in the manufacture of unique capital equipment designed for the semiconductor industry. Based in Santa Clara, CA Nexgen, leverages outsourcing of major components allowing their organization to focus on engineering, product development and testing.
As a highly engineering focused manufacturer serving this dynamic industry their business model is simple, to be the best at delivering one of a kind capital equipment. Designing and building to customer specification is a major differentiator and the word has spread quickly much to the satisfaction of the entrepreneurial oriented Nexgen organization. Next step in continuing the success is optimizing the challenging parts of the business.
For Nexgen, operating at peak efficiency was critical for continued growth and profitability at the levels the business plan called for. According to Steve Naylor, Director of IT at Nexgen,”the challenges to growth meant we needed an integrated business system in place that add controls and facilitate the numerous challenges presented in an Engineer to Order business like ours. Critical areas we needed to improve upon included; speed and accuracy of quoting, managing actual costs, reducing cycle times between design and manufacturing, managing bom revisions and project costs, begin billing for projects based on progress, streamline our business procedures and eliminate wasted approval and notification bottlenecks.”
Nexgen Technologies current ERP system, a product first released in 1991, lacks several key areas that have now become critical to their business such as, multi-site, progress billing, workflow for process improvement and many other shortcomings that were limiting this complex Engineer to Order (ETO) manufacturer. As a result, Nexgen has been forced to be encumbered with system obstacles that slowed their responsiveness, hindered their visibility to project costs, and consumed unnecessary cycles due to lack of workflow creating ineffective sneaker net communications. This was costing the company in many aspects of the business.
After many months of evaluation of ERP systems Nexgen selected VISIBILITY.net ERP. According to Steve Naylor, Director of IT at Nexgen, “this ERP solution is exactly what we were looking for and is oriented on our type of one-of-a-kind manufacturing business. They understand our business demands and have 20 plus years of experience implementing their solution effectively. What we liked most was the comprehensiveness of the software and how it will enable us to optimize all areas of our business. From quotes, to costing, financial compliance, projects, business process improvements through workflow and will accommodate our growth with multi-entity and multi-lingual. Additionally, it was designed from the onset using Microsoft’s .net which gives us a contemporary business platform to grow our business on. “
With the recent advent of .NET technology, the problems encountered by Nexgen’s previous system limitations are erased with the VISIBILITY.net ERP solution. It is 100% written in .NET-managed code, VISIBILITY.net, has been developed from the ground up to support multi-site ETO/MTO manufacturers.
In summary, the VISIBILITY.net ERP solution reduces hardware and maintenance costs for one-of-a-kind (ETO/MTO) manufacturers. With only a single database to manage, the inherent complexities of maintaining separate databases are eliminated, thereby increasing the accuracy of tracking costs.
Visibility Corporation (www.visibility.com) is a leading developer and supplier of business software solutions designed for the unique needs of project-based, engineer-to-order and to-order manufacturers. Visibility’s Enterprise Application solutions help midsize manufacturers of complex products operate their businesses effectively. Visibility has an extensive customer base throughout North America and Europe and has the strongest representation of ERP among complex manufacturers.
VISIBILITY.net is an integrated ERP solution and more. Offering unparalleled functionality and integrated workflow, this browser-based solution cost effectively delivers the power of .NET-based Web services for use with either a Microsoft SQL Server™ or Oracle® database. Conducting business any place, any time, any where is a reality, deployable with unprecedented flexibility.

Does anyone have the funding to help my inventions?
Posted by admin in Technologies on June 27, 2010
I have so many inventions and ideas I wish I could just sell them off one by one to the highest bidder. That is how I feel at this point in my life. I have run into so much bad luck with the knowledge that I can change the world but have no way of making my inventions come to life. I drag on day to day trying to complete my inventions the best I can. I actually have an invention already in process but its been over a year and I am still trying to pay off the patent. Honestly if there is anyone out there that wants to make some money off my inventions I will be more then happy to work with them. If you want to just fund me for the materials or actually help me put it together or even want to by all rights to my inventions it is your choice.

What are the new inventions that help stop global warming?
Posted by admin in Technologies on June 16, 2010
New inventions or government projects that help stop global warming. Preferably in the Philippines but places other that the Philippines could still help.
There is nothing that can stop global warming. The Sun causes all warmth on Earth. The Suns output is never constant, there is always slight variations on the heat the Sun puts out.
Currently, the Sun is warming all so slightly causing the Earth to warm as well.
