Biotechnology.

Science and engineering workforce trends in Education, Jobs, and Global Trade, with more growth in other countries.

Research and development in the United States where education, jobs, and global trade exist in a changing world.

A view as to how we now exist in a flat world in such areas as: technology, education, commerce, communication, and?

A non-profit organization set up the Uniform Code Council and EAN International, the two organizations that maintain barcode standards, to commercialize EPC technology.

EPC Global is made up of chapters in different countries and regions. It is commercializing the technology originally developed by the Auto-ID Center.

The internet-based technologies and services that enable companies to retrieve data associated with EPCs.

The network infrastructure includes the Object Name Service, distributed middleware (sometimes called Savants), the EPC Information Service and Physical Markup Language.

GPS Index.

Using satellite tracking (GPS) of five pygmy elephants in Borneo with the objective that these and their fellow species can survive man's expansion into their natural habitat.

Segway, a modern invention, offers GPS with their transporter.

A standardization initiative of the Uniform Code Council (UCC) and the European Article Numbering Association (EAN) for asset tracking and logistics based on radio frequency identification (RFID).

The GTAG initiative was supported by Philips Semiconductors, Intermec, and Gemplus, three major RFID tag makers; but it was superseded by the Electronic Product Code.

Earth movements and interactions on a global scale: Global tectonics refer particularly to the reasons and consequences of the dynamics of the crustal plates and sea-floor spreading.

1. A system of satellites, computers, and receivers that is able to determine the latitude and longitude of a receiver on Earth by calculating the time difference for signals from different satellites to reach the receiver.
2. A satellite-based radio navigation system run by the U.S. Department of Defense.

It was designed so that signals from four satellites would be available at any point on the earth. By triangulation of these signals, a receiving unit can pinpoint its current location (longitude and latitude) as well as altitude to within 20 meters. The first GPS satellite was launched in 1978.
