The Aviation Group of the Ministry of Technology (formerly the Ministry of Aviation) is responsible for spending a large part of the country's defence budget, both in research and development on the one hand and production or procurement on the other. In addition, it has responsibilities in many non-defence fields, mainly, but not exclusively, in aerospace.Few developments have been carried out entirely within the Ministry's own Establishments; almost all have required continuous co-operation between the Ministry and Industry. In the past the methods of management and collaboration and the relative responsibilities of the Ministry and Industry have varied with time, with the type of equipment to be developed, with the size of the development project and so on. But over the past ten years there has been a growing awareness of the need to put some system into the complex business of translating a requirement into a specification and a specification into a product within reasonable bounds of time and cost.

Abstract A review of the literature and the state-of-the-art in research and development of miniature heat exchangers is presented in this paper. The authors provide a discussion of what makes the micro- and meso-scales important, highlight the design constraints and challenges that surface when miniaturizing a heat exchanger, and outline and discuss the outstanding practical and scientific issues in this area. Finally, the most recent advances in manufacturing processes and application of these miniature heat exchangers are covered in this article.

Computing Technology

Efforts in Grid Computing, both in academia and industry, continue to grow rapidly worldwide for research, scientific and commercial purposes. Building a commanding position in Grid computing is crucial for India. The major Indian National Grid Computing initiative is GARUDA. Other major efforts include the BIOGRID and VISHWA. Several Indian IT companies too are investing a lot into the research and development of grid computing technology. Though grid computing is presently at a fairly nascent stage, it is seen as a cutting edge technology. This chapter presents the state-of-the-art of grid computing technology and the India’s efforts in developing this emerging technology.

The digital profile of a person has become one of the tradable digital commodities over the Internet. Identity management has gained increasing attention from both enterprises and government organisations, in terms of security, privacy, and trust. A considerable number of theories and techniques have been developed to deal with identity management issues using biometric multimodal approaches. In this chapter, the authors review, assess, and consolidate the research and development activities of contemporary biometric and non-biometric identity management in 21 privately and publicly funded organisations. Furthermore, they develop a taxonomy to characterise and classify these identity management frameworks into two categories: processes and technologies. The authors then study these frameworks by systematically reviewing the whole lifecycle of an identity management framework, including actors, roles, security, privacy, trust, interoperability, and federation. The goal is to provide readers with a comprehensive picture of the state of the art of the existing identity management frameworks that utilise biometric and non-biometric technologies with the aim to highlight the contemporary issues and progress in this area of identity management.

The general objective of this article is to establish "state of the art" on the Programa de Apoio à Pesquisa em Empresas (PAPPE) and TECNOVA. These programs are focused on financing innovation in the modality of Economic Subvention (ES), which means the provision of public resources directly to companies for the development of Research and Development (R&D) activities. For this reason, the Capes Dissertation and Thesis Bank was used. The main results showed that the theme is of interest to researchers from north to south of the country, with emphasis on the Southeast, Northeast and South regions. Applied Social Sciences, Engineering III and Multidisciplinary were the areas of Knowledge that most sought to study ES. The importance of this type of financing for the performance of the beneficiary companies, the business maturity for the success of the projects and the relevance of the program to expand the cooperation of companies with the university were observed in the selected studies. The analysis of the studies carried out makes it possible to recommend the continuity and strengthening of the financing policy for innovative activities in the ES modality in the Brazilian states.

ABSTRACT About 70% of the oil transported on U.S. waterways between 1992 and 1997 were on waterways with currents that routinely exceed one knot. About 58% of all of the oil spilled (by volume) also occurred on these waterways. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Research and Development Center has been evaluating the state-of-the-art of containment and cleanup of oil in currents over 1 knot since 1997. An assessment of techniques and equipment was performed that has led to a series of field demonstrations in the Columbia River, Vineyard Haven, and New York Harbor. Tests on other potential fastwater systems have also taken place at the OHMSETT Facility in New Jersey in 1999 and 2000. The results of the equipment evaluations are presented. The format for a fastwater field guide being prepared is also briefly described. The result will be an increase in the capability of both USCG and commercial firms to respond to spills in fast water.
