NOTOC The QED manifesto was a proposal for a computer based database of all mathematics mathematical knowledge, strictly formalized and with all proofs having been checked automatically. Q.E.D. means lang la quod erat demonstrandum in Latin , from Greek language Greek transl el h per dei de xai , meaning that which was to be demonstrated. The idea for the project arose in 1993, mainly under the impetus of Robert S. Boyer Robert Boyer . The goals of the project, tentatively named QED project or project QED , were outlined in the QED manifesto, a document first published in 1994, with input from several researchers. Explicit authorship was deliberately avoided. A dedicated mailing list was created, and two scientific conferences on QED took place. The first one took place in 1994 at Argonne National Laboratories and the second in 1995 in Warsaw organized by the Mizar group. ref http mizar.org people romat qed95rep.pdf The QED Workshop II report ref The project seems to have died in 1996, never having produced more than discussions and plans.

QED is a play theatre play by American playwright Peter Parnell , which chronicles part of a day in the life of Nobel Prize winning physicist Richard Feynman . It presents scenes from a day in Feynman s life, less than two years before his death, interweaving many strands from Feynman s biography, from the Manhattan project to the Rogers Commission Challenger inquiry to more personal topics such as the death of Feynman s wife, and his own fight with cancer. The play, which grew out of a collaboration between Parnell, actor Alan Alda and director Gordon Davidson , premiered in 2001. The original production was performed first at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles and, from late 2001 to mid 2002, on Broadway theatre Broadway , directed by Davidson and starring Alda as Feynman. Plot Set in June, 1986, less than two years before Feynman s death, in Feynman s office at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, the play follows Feynman through a day of his life. As the real Feynman does in his books What Do You Care What Other People Think? and Surely You re Joking, Mr. Feynman , the stage character talks directly to the audience we learn from this and from phone calls with off stage characters that Feynman is to appear that night playing his bongo drum s in a student production of the musical South Pacific musical South Pacific , that he is expecting a delegation from the Russian Republic of Tuva , which Feynman is whimsically determined to visit as detailed in Ralph Leighton s book, Tuva or Bust , and that he is eager to make his views known in the final report of the Rogers ... 2008 festival events all events qed with alan alda Event description on the Festival website , last accessed on 2008 06 11 ref The Chicago area premiere of QED on September 23, 2010 ... last Parnell first Peter title QED A Play publisher Applause Books year 2002 isbn 978 1557835925 ...?ID 13181 QED at the Internet Broadway Data Base Category Broadway plays Category 2001 plays Category ... more details

According to the ONR, QED s role is to address the Navy s operational gaps in surface ship and submarine maneuverability and acoustic signature . Quiet Electric Drives, or QEDs, are quiet, efficient and power dense. The primary objective of QED is demonstrating the utility of the motor as an actuator to obtain signature reduction performance while increasing tactical speed and maneuverability . Its existence is known particularly via a 2005 court case in which four ethnic Chinese suspects have been accused of attempting to smuggle data from a U.S. defense contractor. An Federal Bureau of Investigation FBI affidavit stated QED to be an extremely sensitive project ... considered by the Navy to be significant military equipment and therefore banned for export to countries specifically denied by the United States Department of State U.S. State Department , including the People s Republic of China PRC China .

The absence of a doped layer enhances the electron mobility significantly when compared to their modulation doped counterparts. This level of cleanliness provides opportunities to perform research into the field of Quantum Billiard for quantum chaos studies, or applications in ultra stable and ultra sensitive electronic devices. Researchers from the Quantum Electronic Devices Group QED at the Condensed Matter Physics Department, School of Physics at the University of New South Wales have created both n type and p type HEMT for studying fundamental quantum physics of electronic devices.
