In order to keep pace with the ever-increasing user expectations for instant access to information, operators need the agility to scale on demand, make changes quickly, and launch innovative products and services as required. As such, network operators are leading the path to an open architecture like Open RAN for its ability to provide a […]
Perfectly blending powders and granules can be a significant process engineering challenge. Achieving a uniform blend depends on many variables: the right amounts of the right ingredients; the right particle sizes, moisture content, and temperature; the right process parameters like blender fill fraction, rotation rate, and blend time; and many other product-specific variables. Blending processes […]

By the end of 2025, this new network is expected to attract 2.6 billion subscriptions, as predicted by Ericsson Mobility Report 2019. Many countries all over the world are competing against each other, […]
The adoption of newer technologies such as 5G will not only act as a positive catalyst for opportunities in the telecom sector, but it will have a ripple effect across many industries. It will unleash an unprecedented level of change in the workplace – from transforming employee interaction to banishing the traditional 9-5 job, the […]
Hey Bennu, TAG! Four years and roughly 2 billion miles ago, on a planet far, far away, a bold mission was initiated. NASA launched the Origins-Spectral Interpretation-Resource Identification-Security-Regolith Explorer, known as OSIRIS-REx, to analyze and sample the asteroid Bennu. Traveling onboard the spacecraft is a tiny, but highly sophisticated VIAVI optical filter array that is […]
