40 Complexity in Engineered and Natural Systems Addresses unifying principles that enable modeling, prediction, and control of emergent behavior in complex systems Examples include: Improving structural performance during disasters through advanced materials Advancing quantum information processing Combining maps (gray square) and density of cell-phone usage (shown as red and yellow 3-D peaks) can yield information about how a complex system responds to unplanned events. Dahleh,
41 Competitive Manufacturing and Service Enterprises Enables research to catalyze multiscale manufacturing, from fundamental metrology through atomic-scale control of raw materials Examples include: Developing quality-engineered nanomaterials in necessary quantities Achieving perfect atomic- and molecular-scale manufacturing Nanoparticles compose a lightweight biocompatible material for bone implants. Groza,
42 Energy, Water, and the Environment Supports breakthroughs essential to the provision of energy and water in an environmentally sustainable and secure manner. Examples include: Increasing the use of alternative energy sources through research in materials Developing quantitative understanding of energy environment interactions (including water) Advanced water purification and desalinization begins with understanding of how ions in water interact with purification membranes. This dynamic computer simulation shows sodium (pink) and chlorine (green) ions inside a polyamide membrane. Shannon,
43 Systems Nanotechnology Supports fundamental research that leads to the development of active and complex nanosystems and their integration with biology, energy, and other fields Examples include: Developing high-specificity sensors for national security Developing tools to move into the 3 rd dimension and into time resolutions of chemical reactions Integrated circuits that are smaller and faster are possible with microfluidics systems built from or incorporating nanocomponents.
