7. Broad Frequency LTCC Vertical Interconnect Transition for Multichip Modules and System on Package Applications

Author

Decrossas, Emmanuel, Glover, Michael D, Porter, Kaoru, Cannon, Tom, Mantooth, H. Alan, and Hamilton, M. C

Abstract

Various stripline structures and flip chip interconnect designs for high-speed digital communication systems implemented in low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrates are studied in this paper. Specifically, two different transition designs from edge launch 2.4 millimeter connectors to stripline transmission lines embedded in LTCC are discussed. After characterizing the DuPont (sup trademark) 9K7 green tape, different designs are proposed to improve signal integrity for high-speed digital data. The full-wave simulations and experimental data validate the presented designs over a broad frequency band from Direct Current to 50 gigahertz and beyond.

10. Early development of fern gametophytes in microgravity

Abstract

Dormant spores of the fern Ceratopteris richardii were flown on Shuttle mission STS-93 to evaluate the effects of micro-g on their development and on their pattern of gene expression. Prior to flight the spores were sterilized and sown into one of two environments: (1) Microscope slides in a video-microscopy module; and (2) Petri dishes. All spores were then stored in darkness until use. Spore germination was initiated on orbit after exposure to light. For the spores on microscope slides, cell level changes were recorded through the clear spore coat of the spores by video microscopy. After their exposure to light, spores in petri dishes were frozen in orbit at four different time points during which on earth gravity fixes the polarity of their development. Spores were then stored frozen in Biological Research in Canister units until recovery on earth. The RNAs from these cells and from 1-g control cells were extracted and analyzed on earth after flight to assay changes in gene expression. Video microscopy results revealed that the germinated spores developed normally in microgravity, although the polarity of their development, which is guided by gravity on earth, was random in space. Differential Display-PCR analyses of RNA extracted from space-flown cells showed that there was about a 5% change in the pattern of gene expression between cells developing in micro-g compared to those developing on earth. c2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd on behalf of COSPAR.

Abstract

A shift in management education and development is needed to make them relevant to the changing business environment. This requires a transition away from specialist or technical management education, which is a reflection of the demands of the monolithic, bureaucratic organizations that have prevailed in the 20th century. This type of management learning is simply unacceptable in new enterprises emerging in the market. What is needed is a highly integrated business education, which accommodates the different business disciplines and departments. This enables managers to offer better and more flexible services to increasingly demanding customers. The key to integration is work-based or competency-based management development, which focuses on the tasks managers perform to meet their goals and boost business performance.

38. The Smaller Firm in Overseas Trade.

Author

Cannon, Tom and Willis, Michael

Abstract

Tom Cannon is Professor of Business Studies at Stirling University, Scotland, and Michael Willis is Management Research Fellow at Durham University Business School, England. This paper describes the results of a three year study of the issues, problems and opportunities faced by the smaller concern as it seeks to develop its exports. It has been argued that the propensity of small firms to be domestic market and service orientated runs counter to the needs of trading nations for companies able to build overseas business. The paper explores the evidence behind this and other nations, in particular whether it is true that small firms are inhibited from entering export markets and the patterns of overseas trading they follow. It also looks at whether there are any specific problems faced by small firms wanting to develop exports or international trade and what measures can be adopted to overcome these difficulties, either within the firm or by external policymakers.

Abstract

Maanagement training is undergoing a revolution in the United Kingdom. The managers of small, new firms will determine the future business environment but such companies are failing to pursue the management training that could lead to them becoming world-class firms. The restructuring of industries through developments in biotechnology, communication and information has increased competition and made companies reconsider their management operations. Changes in management training are discussed.

42. English football in a post-Brexit world: Kane we do it?

Author

Cannon, Tom and Cannon, Tom

Abstract

As English football fans took to the streets to celebrate the national team's victories in the World Cup and then mourned losing to Croatia, it's worth reflecting on the state of English football in a post-Brexit world. For some, the prospects are good if the flood of foreign-born players dries up and local teams are again made up of locals, writes Tom Cannon.
