KEY DEFINITIONS FOR SCIENCE ADMINISTRATION 1. NATURE NATURE IS EVERYTHING IN THE UNIVERSE STUDIED BY SCIENCE. 2. SCIENCE SCIENCE IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE DISCOVERY AND UNDERSTANDING OF NATURE. 3. TECHNOLOGY TECHNOLOGY IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MANIPULATION OF NATURE FOR HUMAN PURPOSES. 4. ENGINEERING ENGINEERING IS KNOWLEDGE OF THE MANIPULATION AND UNDERSTANDING OF NATURE. 5. UTILITY UTILITY IS THE ECONOMIC USE OF NATURE FOR HUMAN PURPOSES. 6. UNIVERSITY UNIVERSITIES PROVIDE THE INSTITUTIONAL SECTOR OF SCIENCE. 7. INDUSTRY INDUSTRIES PROVIDE THE INSTITUTIONAL SECTOR OF TECHNOLOGY. 8. GOVERMENT GOVERNMENT PROVIDES THE INSTITUTIONAL SECTOR OF SOCIETAL INFRASTRUCTURE.

ILLUSTRATION: NEW TECHNOLOGY FROM UNIVERSITY SCIENCE – NEVEN VISION James Flanigan described a successful development of a new technology company, Neven, from university research at USC: “Harmut Neven came from Germany to the University of Southern California (USC) a decade ago (1996) to lead research efforts in computerized face and object recognition. The aim was to create a tool for the military and law enforcement agencies to identify enemies and suspects as well as for airlines and other companies to check passengers and visitors.” (Flanigan, 2007)University of Southern California In three years, Mr. Neven, a physicist with a Ph.D. from Ruhr University, succeeded in developing software that could analyze facial features, skin tones and the iris of the eye to achieve such recognition. Then, with encouragement from the technology transfer program at U.S.C., he formed a company named Eyematic Inc. It later became Neven Vision, with the aid of $200,000 in seed money from Anthem Venture Partners.Anthem

Connections to the university (USC) did not end. The Information Sciences Institute at the University of Southern California has continued research in computer recognition jointly with Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany, and with support from Neven Vision. Such collaboration among university research and start-up companies and financial backers is a long-term trend in the U.S.A. Many universities now have offices of technology transfer looking to turn research into commercial ventures -- at the same time that advances in information and biological science and the growth of Internet commerce has led to an explosion of entrepreneurial companies.

The U.S. A. Defense Department research grants in the 1990s benefited the early facial recognition research behind Neven Vision’s technology. And those grants inspired continued technology development in Neven. Ultimately, the technology “will allow you to point your camera phone at a movie poster or a restaurant and get an immediate review of the film or the fare on your cellphone, which will tap into databases,” said Mr. Neven, who foresees one billion camera phones in use worldwide by 2010. That envisioned future may have been brought closer last year when Mr. Neven’s company was acquired by Google for a price that financial experts estimate at more than $40 million.Google

UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP OF SCIENCE TO TECHNOLOGY 1.Science provides the knowledge bases for technology. 2.Scientific progress provides the economic opportunity for radical technological innovation. 3.Technology provides the technical base for scientific instrumentation. 4.The economic utility of science to society occurs through its implementation into technology 5.Industry uses technology directly in economic activities and uses science only indirectly (through the science bases of technologies). 6.Society sees science through technology and through education.
