Autonomous Vehicles in Support of Naval Operations
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309181232
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have been used in military operations for more than 60 years, with torpedoes, cruise missiles, satellites, and target drones being early examples.1 They have also been widely used in the civilian sector-for example, in the disposal of explosives, for work and measurement in radioactive environments, by various offshore industries for both creating and maintaining undersea facilities, for atmospheric and undersea research, and by industry in automated and robotic manufacturing. Recent military experiences with AVs have consistently demonstrated their value in a wide range of missions, and anticipated developments of AVs hold promise for increasingly significant roles in future naval operations. Advances in AV capabilities are enabled (and limited) by progress in the technologies of computing and robotics, navigation, communications and networking, power sources and propulsion, and materials. Autonomous Vehicles in Support of Naval Operations is a forward-looking discussion of the naval operational environment and vision for the Navy and Marine Corps and of naval mission needs and potential applications and limitations of AVs. This report considers the potential of AVs for naval operations, operational needs and technology issues, and opportunities for improved operations.

The Work of the Future
Author: David H. Autor
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262547309
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
Why the United States lags behind other industrialized countries in sharing the benefits of innovation with workers and how we can remedy the problem. The United States has too many low-quality, low-wage jobs. Every country has its share, but those in the United States are especially poorly paid and often without benefits. Meanwhile, overall productivity increases steadily and new technology has transformed large parts of the economy, enhancing the skills and paychecks of higher paid knowledge workers. What’s wrong with this picture? Why have so many workers benefited so little from decades of growth? The Work of the Future shows that technology is neither the problem nor the solution. We can build better jobs if we create institutions that leverage technological innovation and also support workers though long cycles of technological transformation. Building on findings from the multiyear MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future, the book argues that we must foster institutional innovations that complement technological change. Skills programs that emphasize work-based and hybrid learning (in person and online), for example, empower workers to become and remain productive in a continuously evolving workplace. Industries fueled by new technology that augments workers can supply good jobs, and federal investment in R&D can help make these industries worker-friendly. We must act to ensure that the labor market of the future offers benefits, opportunity, and a measure of economic security to all.

Advances in Autonomous Ships (AS) For Ocean Observation
Author: Xinyu Zhang
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832555845
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
Ocean observation and exploration have long been pivotal for the advancement of marine science, climate change study, and resource utilization. However, traditional oceanographic methodologies that involve crewed vessels or satellite data can be limited by factors like high operational costs, potential human risk, temporal and spatial resolution limitations. Autonomous Ships (ASs), also known as Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs), have emerged as a promising alternative with their high endurance, lower operating costs, and the capability of venturing into hazardous or hard-to-reach environments. USVs or ASs are increasingly being utilized for oceanographic research tasks such as data collection, seafloor mapping, environmental monitoring, and marine life surveys. Equipped with a variety of sensors and devices, these autonomous ships can perform observations and gather crucial oceanic data over large geographical scales and extended time frames, providing a wealth of valuable information for marine scientists.
