In the world of database architecture, the need to dynamically create complex objects conflicts with the demand for subsecond response time. Oracle's answer to this dilemma is the materialized view.

3D printing is super cool, but it's also super slow -- it would take 115 days to print a detailed, multimaterial object about the size of a grapefruit. A new method allows printing with up to 8 ...

Taking advantage of molecules that switch states when exposed to particular wavelengths of light, researchers have developed a 3-D printing method that can make precise objects in a matter of minutes.

Researchers have set a new world record: they 3D printed complex objects with higher cellulose content than that of any other additively manufactured cellulose-based parts. To achieve this, they used ...

Imaging buried objects Left: artistic impression of metal spheres buried in small glass beads; centre: conventional ultrasound image; right: the new technology can precisely determine the positions of ...
