MIT started its millimeter size turbine engine project in the middle of the 1990s when Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics Alan H. Epstein considered the possibility of creating a personal turbine which will be able to meet all the demands of a modern person's electrical needs, just as a large turbine can meet the electricity demands of a small city.

in Aeronautics from MIT in June 1924.

* Dr. Sheila E. Widnall, Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Engineering Systems, MIT

he is currently co-director of the Massachusetts Space Grant Consortium and a Professor of the Practice in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT.

He joined the MIT Aeronautics and Astronautics faculty in 2001 as a senior lecturer, and since 2002 has been a Professor of the Practice in that department.

While a student at MIT he worked during the Summer of 1987 as a general engineer at NASA Headquarters in the Office of Aeronautics and Space Technology, during the summers of 1988 and 1989 as a research fellow in the Man-Systems Integration Branch at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, and during the summer of 1990 as a visiting research engineer at the German Aerospace Center ( DLR ) in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany.

The MIT Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems is an interdisciplinary research laboratory of MIT, working on research in the areas of communications, control, and signal processing combining faculty from the School of Engineering, the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the Department of Mathematics and the MIT Sloan School of Management.

Kalam started his career, after graduating from Aerospace engineering at MIT ( Chennai ), India, at Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and was assigned to build a hovercraft prototype.

In 1986 he entered graduate school at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he conducted research on human operator control of space robotics systems in the MIT Mechanical Engineering Department's Human-machine systems Laboratory.

MIT Daedalus human powered aircraft

The current distance and duration record recognised by the FAI was achieved on 23 April 1988 from Heraklion on Crete to Santorini in a MIT Daedalus 88 piloted by Kanellos Kanellopoulos: a straight distance of in 3 hours, 54 minutes.

* April 23-Kanellos Kanellopoulos recreates the mythical flight of Daedalus by flying a pedal-powered aircraft, the MIT Daedalus from Crete to Santorini, covering the in 3 hours 54 minutes.

A record cold temperature of 450 ± 80 pK in a Bose – Einstein condensate ( BEC ) of sodium atoms was achieved in 2003 by researchers at MIT.

DiFranco was born in Buffalo, New York, to Elizabeth and Dante DiFranco, who had met while attending MIT.

This was not made publicly known to the media, but engineers at MIT ( volunteer students and professors ) performed several experiments and found serious problems with the tunnel.

As recently as the late 1990s it was rather run-down ; it underwent a controversial gentrification in recent years ( in conjunction with the development of the nearby University Park at MIT ), and continues to grow more expensive.

A " sold " banner was hung on front of the MIT dome building and a " Welcome to Caltech East: School of the Humanities " banner over the Massachusetts Avenue Entrance.

For about a decade, every student taking the 6. 004 class at MIT was part of a team — each team had one semester to design and build a simple 8 bit CPU out of 7400 series integrated circuits.

Core was so expensive that parts of TX-0's memory were stripped for the TX-2, and what remained of the TX-0 was then given to MIT on permanent loan.

At MIT, Olsen and Anderson noticed something odd: students would line up for hours to get a turn to use the stripped-down TX-0, while largely ignoring a faster IBM machine that was also available.

ELIZA was written at MIT by Joseph Weizenbaum between 1964 and 1966.

An early functional-flavored language was Lisp, developed by John McCarthy while at Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) for the IBM 700 / 7000 series scientific computers in the late 1950s.

It described how the National Intelligence Organization of Turkey ( MIT ) had formed two teams: one which carried out bombings at tourist sites on Crete and other parts of Greece and another which was responsible for starting the wildfires.

The first printed book on either gunpowder or metalworking, it was published posthumously in 1540, with 9 editions over 138 years, and also reprinted by MIT Press in 1966.

It was designed as a compromise between the strong-copyleft GNU General Public License or GPL and permissive licenses such as the BSD licenses and the MIT License.

His book, The Outline of History was read by José Figueres Ferrer in 1920 while at MIT, the Costa Rican revolutionary and 3-time president, who took the book to heart, and permanently abolished the military of Costa Rica in 1948, and banned the military in the Constitution.

The PDP-10 machine AI at MIT, which was running the ITS operating system and which was connected to the Arpanet, provided an early hacker meeting point.

For example, when MIT students surreptitiously put a fake police car atop the dome on MIT's Building 10, that was a hack in this sense, and the students involved were therefore hackers.

The most visible difference in these views was in the design of the MIT hackers ' Incompatible Timesharing System, which deliberately did not have any security measures.

This behavior was not malicious in nature: the MIT hackers did not seek to harm the systems or their users ( although occasional practical jokes were played using the computer systems ).

For the hackers at MIT, it was the labs where the computers were running.

Edgerton was appointed full professor in electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) in 1948.

He was especially loved by MIT students for his willingness to teach and his kindness: " The trick to education ," he said, " is to teach people in such a way that they don't realize they're learning until it's too late.

Infocom was founded on June 22, 1979 by MIT staff and students led by Dave Lebling, Marc Blank, Albert Vezza, and Joel Berez and lasted as an independent company until 1986 when it was bought by Activision.
