MIT Sloan leader of the initiative on Inventing the Organizations of the 21st Century, addresses the mental models that constrain management progress, the view of comprehensive goals for business versus how wrong people are about what business is for, and the role of collective intelligence.

Real time web search like Twitter messages, can give a clue of what people around the world are thinking or doing at any moment. The latest research from Google, suggests that online footprint including real time results could be even more powerful: they may reveal the future as well as the present.

A scientific team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), may be able to remotely find extraterrestrial life, (e.g. from a large telescope or spaceborne instruments), elsewhere in the Universe by looking for left (or right) handed light reflected on its home planet.

We’ve heard that visualisation has the power to help us meet our objectives; in a new study of the Association for Psychological Science, psychologists Christopher Davoli and Richard Abrams from Washington University, shows that the imagination can be really effective in helping us reach our goals.

Researchers from U.S. Navy’s Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center have reported new scientific evidence for the existence of low energy nuclear reactions (LENR), the process called “cold fusion” that may promise a new source of energy.
The scientists describe the first clear visual evidence that LENR devices can produce neutrons, tale signs that nuclear reactions are occurring. Low-energy nuclear reactions could potentially provide 21st Century society a limitless, safe, cheap and clean energy source for generating electricity.

Seven years ago, GEO600 started to look for gravitational waves (ripples in space-time thrown off by super-dense astronomical objects such as black holes). GEO600 has not detected gravitational waves so far, but it might have made the most important discovery in physics for half a century: Our Cosmos may be sourced from the boundary of Universe as a hologram.

Physicists at The University of Texas, Austin, have designed a new system that would use fusion to eliminate most of the transuranic waste produced by nuclear fission plants. The invention would combat global warming by turning nuclear power mostly clean and thus a more viable replacement of carbon-heavy energy sources, such as oil or gas. Read the rest of this entry »
Imagine the planet’s collective brainpower and computing power brought together to address some of the world’s toughest problems, like global climate change, cancer or global crisis. It sounds like science fiction, but researchers at MIT’s Center for Collective Intelligence (CCI) are looking for it to reality.
A team led by MIT researchers have released the most comprehensive independent review of the future of NASA spaceflight program undertaken in many years. The report recommends setting loftier goals for humans in space, focusing research more clearly toward those goals, and increasing cooperation with other nations and private industry.
