The New Jersey MEMS Initiative---from Concept to Commercialization
نویسندگان
چکیده
The New Jersey MEMS Initiative is a comprehensive research, development, commercialization and education program initiated through the NJ Commission on Science and Technology. During its first year the Initiative has (1) undertaken the assessment and improvement of NJ MEMS fabrication and characterization capabilities at the university level, helping to strengthen and make more accessible the state's university MEMS research infrastructure; (2) conducted specific, industry-driven pilot projects, moving them along the pathway from concept to commercialization; (3) gone beyond the practice of commercialization to explore the theory of discontinuous innovation exemplified by the emerging MEMS field; and (4) developed an innovative educational program that attempts to couple training in leading-edge technological innovation with methodologies of entrepreneurship. We believe that this marriage of multidisciplinary academic programs with realworld applications may become a new paradigm for mutually beneficial partnerships between industry and academia.

Developing a fuzzy expert system to predict technology commercialization success
A majority of efforts in terms of technology commercialization have failed; however, the issue of commercialization and its high importance are agreed upon by policymakers, entrepreneurs, and researchers. This shows the high complexity of the commercialization process. One of the main solutions to overcome the commercialization problems is to predict the success of technology commercialization ...

متن کاملDetermining the Telephony Triage Outcome in Patients with Chest Pain in Emergency Center in 115 provinces of Qom according to the New Jersey Modified Protocol in the first half of 1396
Introduction: The most common complaint of heart patients is pain and chest discomfort. The delay in transmitting patients from the onset of symptoms to reaching a treatment center is one of the most important reasons for the deaths of these patients. There is a direct relationship between the early services provided by the pre-hospital emergency room with positive therapeutic outcomes and the ...
متن کاملTreatment of an Insertional High Grade Partial Patellar Tendon Tear Utilizing a Bio-Inductive Implant
The management of recalcitrant patellar tendinopathies in the athletic population can be vexing to both the surgeonand patient. To date the majority of treatments for this disease pathology are non-surgical in nature. When surgicalintervention is required, open debridement and/or tendon take-down with repair has been necessary. We proposea novel technique for the treatment of insertional patell...

DNA barcoding is a new term introduced in to scientific literatures by Hebert and coworkers almost a decade ago. The concept of barcoding alone is well-known to the public: a series of black bars printed on many commercial products (Universal Product Code), which are used to distinguish different products. Advances made in molecular biology and molecular techniques late 20th century e.g. sequen...
