    Spring 2017 Industry Study Industry Report Electronics The Dwight D. Eisenhower School for National Security and Resource Strategy National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, DC 20319-5062 i ELECTRONICS 2017 ABSTRACT: While currently assessed as mature and healthy, the global semiconductor industry is facing a strategic inflection point. This inflection will shape a future for the industry that is significantly different than the past. Although outlook for that future remains favorable, numerous challenges place that future at risk. Challenges found in Chinese competition, skilled workforce shortages, commercial semiconductor market shifts, unique DoD electronics needs, and ongoing requirements for rapid innovation threaten the stability of the market, the U.S. competitive advantage, and U.S. economic and national security. Future success in the industry hinges upon policies which address these challenges and enable U.S. companies to embrace future opportunities. LTC Khalid Alothman, Saudi Arabian Army CDR Terri L.

    371 /V8 A/O 'oo THE "VIVA KENNEDY" CLUBS IN SOUTH TEXAS THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Joan Traffas, B.A. Denton, Texas December, 1972 Traffas, Joan, The "Viva Kennedy" Clubs in South Texas. Master of Arts (History), December, 1972, 132 pp., 2 tables, bibliography, 115 titles. This thesis analyzes the impact of the Mexican-American voters in south Texas on the 1960 presidential election. During that election year, this ethnic minority was strong enough to merit direct appeals from the Democratic presiden- tial candidate, and subsequently, allowed to conduct a unique campaign divorced from the direct control of the conservative state Democratic machinery. Formerly, the Democratic politicos in south Texas manipulated the Mexican-American vote. In 1960, however, the Chicanos voted for a man with whom they could empathize, rather than for a party label. This strong identification with the Democratic candidate was rooted in psychological rather than ideological, social rather than political, factors. John F. Kennedy seemed to personify machismo and simpatla. Perhaps even more impres- sive than the enthusiasm, the Kennedy candidacy generated among the Mexican-Americans was the ability of the Texas Democratic regulars to prevent a liberal-conservative rup- ture within the state party. This was accomplished by per- mitting the Mexican-American "Viva Kennedy" clubs quasi- independence. Because of these two conditions, the Mexican- American ethnic minority became politically salient in the 1960 campaign. 1 2 The study of the Mexican-American political behavior in 1960 proceeds in three stages.

If gain on the sale of Stapled Securities would be subject to U.S. federal income taxation, the Stapled Securityholder would generally recognise any gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realised and the Stapled Securityholder’s adjusted basis in its Stapled Securities that are sold or exchanged. This gain or loss would be capital gain or loss, and would be long-term capital gain or loss if the Stapled Securityholder’s holding period in its Stapled Securities exceeds one year.

  • PART I: People & Strategy
    By Ken Luskin [email protected] October 28, 2014 PART I: People & Strategy The Brilliance of Steve Jobs was in building a team of geniuses Virtually everyone in the world knows that Steve Jobs was the driving force behind the success of Apple. Unfortunately, few of them understand that without the team of technical gurus Jobs assembled, his visions would not have become reality. Without a Microprocessor Brain, the iPhone would not exist Inside every “smart” computing device is a microprocessor, considered the brains of the device. When Jobs was creating what is now known as the iPhone, he needed a special microprocessor, which could make it through the day without draining the battery. Jobs first approached Intel, the company that was supplying the microprocessors for the entire MAC line. Intel was not interested in supplying a relatively low cost mobile chip, because the bean counters and FAB guys had no vision. So, Jobs built a team of top mobile microproprocessor engineers, licensed the ARM architecture, and created a chip that became the brains of the iPhone and iPad. Apple buys P.A. Semiconductor in 2008 to keep Apple’s microprocessors on the cutting edge With this acquisition Apple received a group of highly innovative engineers, including ex AMD employee Jim Keller. From a VentureBeat article: “Keller spearheaded the development of Apple’s custom mobile processors — including the A4 in the iPhone 4, the A5 in the iPhone 4S and iPad 2, and the A5X in the new iPad — all of which have managed to keep Apple’s mobile devices on the cutting edge.

  • TROUBLING SIGNS IBM Head Ginni Rometty Cannot Find a Way to Stimulate Growth IBM COMPANY
    TROUBLING SIGNS IBM head Ginni Rometty cannot find a way to stimulate growth IBM COMPANY LITTLE BIG BLUE IBM The turnover of the US technological icon has been shrinking for years. If superbrain Watson fails to bring about the turnaround, CEO Virginia Rometty will probably have to go. For Virginia Marie Rometty (59), called Ginni, the domination of the world is only a matter of time. At the end of October, at her in-house exhibition in Las Vegas, the chief executive of IBM announced that in five years her computer technology will influence “every decision” on this planet. The task for IBM's superbrain Watson is clear – it must solve “the biggest problems of the world.” In a few years, this market, called Cognitive Computing, is expected to be worth an incredible two trillion dollars. Rometty claims that more than one billion people will be using the in-house “moonshot” technology as early as 2017. The magic word is Artificial Intelligence (AI). With such a pitch a techie from the Silicon Valley would certainly have the chance for a life-sustaining venture capital shot. But IBM is not a new company – even though Rometty likes to describe her Big Blue as a “105-year old start-up.” ► JANUARY 2017 manager magazin 65 PHOTO [M]: BEN BAKER / REDUX / LAIF / / REDUX BAKER [M]: BEN PHOTO COMPANY IBM The large corporation lacks the most of HP, the other US technological Rometty has pursued this goal important criterion for this type of legend.

  • Senior Vice President, Cognitive Solutions and IBM Research IBM
    Dr. John E. Kelly III Senior Vice President, Cognitive Solutions and IBM Research IBM As IBM senior vice president, Cognitive Solutions and IBM Research, Dr. John E. Kelly III is focused on the company’s investments in several of the fastest-growing and most strategic parts of the information technology market. His portfolio includes IBM Analytics, IBM Commerce, IBM Security and IBM Watson, as well as IBM Research and the company’s Intellectual Property team. He also oversees the development of units devoted to serving clients in specific industries, beginning with the 2015 launches of IBM Watson Health and IBM Watson Internet of Things. In this role, Dr. Kelly’s top priorities are to stimulate innovation in key areas of information technology and to bring those innovations into the marketplace quickly; to apply these innovations to help IBM clients succeed; and to identify and nurture new and future areas for investment and growth. He works closely with the leaders of these units to drive business development, accelerate technology transfer and invest for the future. Dr. Kelly was most recently senior vice president and director of IBM Research, only the tenth person to hold that position over the past seven decades. Under Dr. Kelly, IBM Research expanded its global footprint by adding four new labs (including IBM’s first in Africa, South America and Australia), creating a network of approximately 3,000 scientists and technical employees across 12 laboratories in 10 countries. During his tenure, IBM maintained and extended what is now 23 straight years of patent leadership. Most notably, Dr.
