(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Network security ensures the consistency, integrity, and reliability of telecommunications systems. Authorized network access prevents fraudulent communications and maintains the availability of the systems. However, limited ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Emergency Departments have been referred to as the "Safety Net" of our Healthcare system. This is because of their ability to catch all patients who would otherwise slip through the system, due to lack of funds, insurance, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)With the advent of the World Wide Web, the amount of digital information in the world has increased exponentially. The ability to organize this deluge of data, retrieve it, and combine it with other data would bring numerous ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Gaming has been explored as a research technique in complex systems to explore human interactions within technical domains. These so-called "serious games" are designed for purposes outside of pure entertainment and are ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The sixteen-bit well-known port number is often overlooked as a network identifier in Internet communications. Its purpose at the most fundamental level is only to demultiplex flows of traffic. Several unintended uses of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Environmental regulations are typically portrayed as an outside force stimulating development of environmental technologies in regulated industries. In reality, firms influence regulation by communicating their technological ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Worldwide water scarcity, especially in the developing world, provides the impetus for utilizing inexpensive desalination technologies on a wider scale to contribute to freshwater supply. Small-scale desalination technologies, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis addresses two challenges associated with advanced space and planetary exploration: characterizing and improving the mobility of current and future gas pressurized space suits; and developing effective domestic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Due to perceived proliferation risks, current US fast reactor designs have avoided the use of uranium blankets. While reducing the amount of plutonium produced, this omission also restrains the reactor design space and has ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)There is a growing realization that stakeholder involvement in decision-making for large- scale engineering systems is necessary and crucial, both from an ethical perspective, as well as for improving the chances of success ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Air Force development of new or evolutionary weapon systems is a complex endeavor due to the involvement of many stakeholders and the presence of considerable uncertainty in the acquisition environment. The ability to adapt ...
