Advanced Robotics and Intelligent Machines in Defense Manufacturing.
As a subcontractor on a federal research effort, TTI made a series
of on-site visits to manufacturing plants of leading defense contractors
to define and assess strategies for insertion of advanced robotics
and intelligent systems in major defense platforms. A primary goal
of this research was to identify technology application strategies
with potential to bring about significant breakthroughs in quality,
cost and productivity.
Network Convergence and Voice Over IP.
In a series of interviews with network planning executives at leading
service providers in the U.S. and Europe, we probed the prospects
for migration to next-generation networks. Our research makes clear
that in spite of the slumping economy, technical obstacles and confusing
standards, network convergence and voice over IP is happening now.
Broadband Access and Applications | IP Networking.
These studies will explore the potential of broadband for bringing
advanced and productive services to customers in both metropolitan
and rural areas of the United States and other countries, and the
fundamental changes underway as IP networking and traditional public
switched telecommunications networks converge.
