Resolution enhancement technology RET is a form of image processing technology used to manipulate dot characteristics popular among laser printer and inkjet printer manufacturers. Closely related RET techniques are also used in Very large scale integration VLSI photolithography manufacturing technology, in particular in relation to 90 nanometre technology. Resolution refers to the sharpness of image detail, smoothness of curved lines, and the faithful reproduction of an image. In both cases, RET uses pre compensation of the image in order to try to mitigate the effects of the printing process. Among the major issues in RET in VLSItechnology are the fundamental properties of a wave amplitude, phase, and direction.

Welfare technology is closely linked to Ambient Assisted Living AAL but whereas AAL focuses on addressing the needs of the aging population http www.aal169.org , welfare technology addresses not only the elderly but also other users of public services such as the handicapped, schools, day care centres, abusers, etc. The discourse were created during a debate meeting http www.tekno.dk subpage.php3?article 1339&toppic kategori7&language dk in the Spring of 2007 hosted by the Danish Board of Technology, where new technologies in care were discussed. The European Union has become increasingly focused on finding new ways to reduce the burden of the elderly boom that is expected in the future.

The study of technology policy or engineering and policy is taught at multiple universities. Classic political science teaches technology as a black box. Similarly economics treats technology as a residual to explain otherwise inexplicable growth. The creation of the U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy addressed the fact that policy can not treat all technologies as identical based on their social or economic variables. Technology policy is distinct from science studies but both claim Thomas Samuel Kuhn as a founder, while technology policy recognizes the importance of Vannevar Bush . Technology policy approaches science as the pursuit of verifiable or falsifiable hypotheses, while science studies has a post modern view whereby science is belief based and all truths are relative.

Alternative technology is a term used to refer to technologies that are more environmentally friendly than the functionally equivalent technologies dominant in current practice. The term was coined by Peter Harper, one of the founders of the Centre for Alternative Technology , North Wales aka The Quarry , in Undercurrents magazine in the 1970s. Some alternative technologies have in the past or may in the future become widely adopted, after which they might no longer be considered alternative. For example the use of wind turbines to produce electricity. Alternative technologies Alternative technologies include the following Anaerobic digestion Composting Fuel cell s Fuels for automobiles besides gasoline and Diesel fuel diesel Alcohol fuel Alcohol either ethanol or methanol Biodiesel Vegetable oil Greywater Photovoltaic module Solar panel s Silicon based Photosynthetic Gratzel cell s Titanium dioxide Landfill gas extraction from landfills Mechanical biological treatment Recycling Wind generator s See also Portal Sustainable development Environmental technology List of solid waste treatment technologies List of waste water treatment technologies Soft energy technology External links http www.cat.org.uk index.tmpl Centre for Alternative Technology, N Wales http www.buildinggreen.com products recycled wood.cfm Recycled wood http peopleinaction.info archive technology.html Technological alternatives http www.ata.org.au Australia s alternative technology association http www.greenprogress.com Alternative technology news and resources http global1.kyocera.com company ecology.html Kyocera http www.azom.com details.asp?ArticleID 2210 Gratzel Cells Solar Cells Based on Titanium Dioxide ...

Technology governance means the governance , i.e., the steering between the different sectors &mdash state, business, and Non governmental organization NGO s &mdash of the development of technology . The concept is based on the notion of innovation and of techno economic paradigm shifts according to the theories of Joseph Alois Schumpeter Joseph A. Schumpeter , Christopher Freeman , Carlota Perez , etc. The idea is that certain periods in economic development are dominated by a paradigm leading technology that influences through finance mechanisms, organizational change, greater returns, etc. Also, the economic and social sphere to such an extent that an entire paradigm is coined by them. Currently, that paradigm leading technology is Information and Communication Technology Information and Communications Technology ICT . According to Innovation Theory and empirical findings as well , states, regions, or other communities do not automatically promote, or even go into, these key technologies, but rather need to be guided there, by active wikt intervene intervention , by the State sector, if it s in close cooperation and coordination with the other two, which is marked by the concept of governance already.
