A Guide to Emerging Opportunities
Vietnam’s booming electronics industry (EI), led by multinational corporations, has played a vital role in spurring trade volume, and bolstering the country’s GDP in the past decade. Fueled by trade liberalization, corporate tax cuts, improved labor quality, and government reforms, Vietnam consistently attracts foreign investors eyeing Asia for relocating their electronics industry investments.
Vietnam’s electronics industry (EI) is pivotal to its rapid economic growth and manufacturing achievements.
Supported by trade agreements and government policies, this sector offers attractive investment opportunities.
To capitalize on these opportunities, a thorough grasp of recent developments in Vietnamese electronics production, the sector’s structure, and current…
Novel device combines nanopores with electronic signals for disease detection
In living organisms, cells have a very high capacity to process and communicate information by moving molecules or ions through tiny channels that span the cell membrane. UC Santa Cruz Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Marco Rolandi’s lab and collaborators at MIT have created a device that mimics this biological concept in order to detect disease.
Using their bioprotonic system, a device that integrates electronic components with biological components and uses electrical currents of protons, the researchers can detect biomolecules that indicate the presence of human disease, among other applications. Details on this device were newly published in the…
The PRESS Act Will Protect Journalists When They Need It Most
Our government shouldn’t be spying on journalists. Nor should law enforcement agencies force journalist to identify their confidential sources or go to prison.
To fix this, we need to change the law. Now, we’ve got our best chance in years. The House of Representatives has passed the Protect Reporters from Exploitive State Spying (PRESS) Act, H.R. 4250and it’s one of the strongest federal shield bills for journalists we’ve seen.
Take Action
Tell Congress To Pass the PRESS Act Now
The PRESS Act would do two critical things: first, it would bar federal law enforcement from surveillance journalists by gathering their…
Flexing the Lifespan of AI-Enabled Electronic Devices | News & Events | Computer Science
When it comes to electronic waste, “WEEE” is not an exclamation of excitement but rather an indicator of a global crisis. “Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment” is steadily increasing as technology advances: about 50 million metric tons of WEEE are generated annually worldwide, which is expected to increase to 111 million tons per year by 2050.
While retrofitting devices, from cell phones to vehicles, faces many challenges – it is often easier and more affordable to buy new – researchers see promise in novel machine learning-enabled cyber-physical systems (LE-CPSs) to build flexibility into hardware and thus increase lifespan, reduce…

US Air Force receives first new Compass Call electronic warfare plane
NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — The US Air Force has received its first EC-37B Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft from contractors BAE Systems and L3Harris Technolgies, industry officials announced Tuesday.
BAE Systems said in a release that the Air Force will next begin combined developmental and operational testing for this Compass Call, the first of 10 aircraft planned for the Air Force.
The new EC-37B fleet will replace Air Combat Command’s decades-old EC-130 aircraft, which service is now retiring. BAE builds the electronic attack components of the new Compass Call in Hudson, New Hampshire, and L3Harris integrates that mission-specific hardware into…
Russia wages electronic warfare ‘using UK-made tech’, Ukraine dossier claims | Russia
Many of the countries that have sanctioned Russia over the war in Ukraine need to take urgent action to disrupt the supply of technology for its electronic warfare campaign, according to a new report.
The dossier compiled by Ukraine and circulated to the major countries which have imposed sanctions identifies key Russian firms involved in the development and production of electronic military equipment. It says the UK and other countries have not yet sanctioned some of the firms involved.
It identifies what it claims is technology made by British firms in some of the advanced electronic equipment involved in the…
