Los Alamos, NM: Los Alamos National Laboratory, 1993. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Wraps. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. This is one sheet, folded at midpoint, with information/illustrations on all four sides. This brochure states that Los Alamos transportation projects included collaborating with the automotive industry to develop safe, gas-efficient, and ergonomically sound vehicles, developing technologies for an intelligent vehicle-highway system; and designing such technologies as nondestructive testing of bridges. Los Alamos was part of the New Mexico Alliance for Transportation Research, whose goal was to enhanced the transportation structure of the United States. For example, Los Alamos studied the two-stroke engine which showed the spent gasses being carried out the exhaust port while the fresh gas was brought into the cylinder through the intake ports--support research in more fuel-efficient and more emission-managed engines.

X-ray lithography, is a process used in electronic industry to selectively remove parts of a thin film. It uses X-rays to transfer a geometric pattern from a mask to a light-sensitive chemical photoresist, or simply "resist," on the substrate. A series of chemical treatments then engraves the produced pattern into the material underneath the photoresist. The objective of the XLS effort is that within a 30 to 36 month period, several U.S. companies will be able to offer the semiconductor industry proven, reliable, and effective sources for x-ray lithography. These sources must be competitive with those that will become available from foreign suppliers both in performance and in cost. More

Munich, Germany: Max Planck Society, 2017. Presumed First Edition, First printing thus. Wraps. 82, [2] pages. Wraps. Illustrations. (most in color). The focus of this issue is Big Data. The Max Planck Society describes itself as "a co-founder of the international Open Access movement". Together with the European Cultural Heritage Online Project the Max Planck Society organized the Berlin Open Access Conference in October 2003 to ratify the Bethesda Statement on Open Access Publishing. At the Conference the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities was passed. The Berlin Declaration built on previous open access declarations, but widened the research field to be covered by open access to include humanities and called for new activities to support open access such as “encouraging the holders of cultural heritage” to provide open access to their resources. The Max Planck Society continues to support open access in Germany and mandates institutional self-archiving of research outputs on the eDoc server and publications by its researchers in open access journals within 12 months. To finance open access the Max Planck Society established the Max Planck Digital Library. The library also aims to improve the conditions for open access on behalf of all Max Planck institutes by negotiating contracts with open access publishers and developing infrastructure projects, such as the Max Planck open access repository.
