Case study An analysis of 3M‚ the innovation company Introduction Any review of the literature on new product development and innovation management will uncover numerous references to 3M. The organisation is synonymous with innovation and has been described as ‘a smooth running innovation machine’ (Mitchell‚ 1989). Year after year 3M is celebrated in the Fortune 500 rankings as the ‘most respected company’ and the ‘most innovative company’. Management gurus from Peter Drucker to Tom Peters continually

A) Introduction: Group dynamics in academic environment cannot often simulate actual team works in real world. For example‚ teams in academic environment do not often have any outside influence over decision making. So‚ group members cannot experience how to live or handle with such influence to make critical decisions. But still these group works are a great source of learning because we are forced to delegate responsibilities‚ set and meet time requirement‚ manage individual differences‚ collaborate

Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force. More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves. Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy. Over the last two millennia‚ physics was a part of natural philosophy along with chemistry‚ certain branches of mathematics‚ and

What is science? Science is the concerted human effort to understand‚ or to understand better‚ the history of the natural world and how the natural world works‚ with observable physical evidence as the basis of that understanding1. It is done through observation of natural phenomena‚ and/or through experimentation that tries to simulate natural processes under controlled conditions. (There are‚ of course‚ more definitions of science.) Consider some examples. An ecologist observing

------------------------------------------------- State of matter From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia States of matter in physics are the distinct forms that different phases of matter take on. Four states of matter are observable in everyday life: solid‚ liquid‚ gas‚ and plasma. Further states are possible but do not naturally occur in our environment: Bose–Einstein condensates‚ neutron stars. Other states‚ such as quark-gluon plasmas‚ are believed to be possible.

The Role of Science and Technology in Future Design by Jerome Karle 1985 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry Introduction The role of science and technology in future design will be discussed from the perspective of someone who has lived all his life in the United States and whose scientific experience has spanned the years since the late 1930s. It is likely that the reader will find in my discussion characteristics that apply to many developed countries and developing ones. Inasmuch as scientific
