(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis explores the technology and market evolution of FT-IR spectroscopy over its nearly forty year history to aid in determining future product design and marketing strategies for an industry-leading firm, Bruker ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The accumulation of transuranic inventories in spent nuclear fuel depends on both deployment of advanced reactors that can be loaded with recycled transuranics (TRU), and on availability of the facilities that separate and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The fulfillment supply chain consists of all activities associated with packing, storing, and transporting a product from the manufacturer to the customer. In the global environment, it is a challenge to accurately measure ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We consider the problem of functional compression. The objective is to separately compress possibly correlated discrete sources such that an arbitrary deterministic function of those sources can be computed given the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis assesses fare payment technologies for Transport for London in 2015. Based on a survey of technical literature, feasible payments technologies in 2015 include current smartcard technology, contactless bankcards ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Cost growth and inefficiencies are a serious problem in almost all major U.S. defense procurement programs, and have existed for many years despite repeated efforts to control them. These problems are particularly virulent ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The growth of healthcare costs in the USA, coupled with the desire for access to care in the developing world, is driving the need for low cost, high quality imaging services. The miniaturization of signal processing ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The ailing U.S. health care system faces two tremendous challenges: a rising health care bill and a growing number of uninsured individuals. Several policies have been enacted to tackle these challenges but they are ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Companies in the computer hardware industry can benefit by incorporating future business scenarios in their present decision-making processes. Any decision regarding strategic supply chain design is one such area where ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The air transportation system is a vital infrastructure that enables economic growth and provides significant social benefits. Future increases and volatility in crude oil prices, as well as environmental charges, are ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Regulation of aviation's contribution to the global problem of climate change is increasingly likely in the near term, but the method agreed upon by most economists-a multi-sectoral market-based approach such as a cap and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology has the potential to enable large reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions, but one of the unanswered questions about CCS is whether it will be accepted by the public. In ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Sourcing and purchasing have received renewed attention recently as many supply chains challenge themselves to meet cost reduction goals. These challenges are especially apparent in the high-mix, low volume, and often ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Although the current literature on technology and development has mainly focused on the Internet, I focus on a case where an "old" technology can be more beneficial and appropriate. In 1993, the Peruvian Government created ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Globalization is changing the way in which the world is organized. The world trade regime is increasingly the dominant mode of organizing international relations. Within this context of globalization and liberalization of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The biomanufacturing industry is changing due to increasing globalization. However, it is changing differently from other high tech industries like software/ semiconductor/ automobiles. In this study we use global ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This dissertation presents findings on four elements of the relationship between Global Product Development or Globally distributed Product Development (GPD) and product complexity. I examine this relationship in the context ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)China has embarked on a massive expansion of nuclear power that may fundamentally change the global nuclear industry, for better or for worse. Some industry observers argue that the incumbent nuclear power companies are ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)An accurate outlook on long-term uranium resources is critical in forecasting uranium costresource relationships, and for energy policy planning as regards the development and deployment of nuclear fuel cycle alternatives. ...
