Advocates a comprehensive design revolution based on the principle of doing more and more with less and less. States that man's "systems thinking" has been too heavily influenced by mechanistic views and that future concepts of economic progress must be based on improving the quality of life. (GS)

Article provided a well-known example of creative invention, that of the hovercraft, which served well as a highlight of the problems facing the student of creativity. (Author/RK)

Interim Report of the Computer Sciences in Electrical Engineering (COSINE) Committee of the Commission on Engineering Education.

Paper presented at Symposium on the Application of Technology to Education, Washington, D.C., September 9-10, 1968.

This pamphlet gives definitions and symbols for the basic and derived metric units, prefixes, and conversion factors for units frequently used in water resources. Included are conversion factors for units of area, work, heat, power, pressure, viscosity, flow rate, and others. (BB)

This programed booklet presents ideas related to inductors and inductance--resistance networks. It is designed for the engineering student who is familiar with differential equations and electrical networks. A variety of cases are considered with the idea of developing in the student a broad acquaintance with the inductor response. The booklet is…

This programed booklet is designed for the engineering student who is familiar with the techniques of integral calculus and electrical networks. The booklet teaches how to determine the current and voltages across a resistor, inductor, and capacitor after the switch in a network has been closed. This is a classical problem in engineering, the…

This programed text is an introduction to the algebra of complex numbers for engineering students, particularly because of its relevance to important problems of applications in electrical engineering. It is designed for a person who is well experienced with the algebra of real numbers and calculus, but who has no experience with complex number…

Wastewater treatment, microbiology, biochemistry, and engineering are the major subject areas covered in this preliminary thesaurus designed for use in a private information retrieval system. The thesaurus was developed through meetings where each descriptor was discussed, necessary scope notes were written, definition and cross references were…

This status report is divided into eight sections. The first four represent the classical engineering or building aspects of bioengineering and deal with biomedical instrumentation, prosthetics, man-machine systems and computer and information systems. The next three sections are related to the scientific, intellectual and academic influence of…
