2. For a description of such supply chain changes, see Janice H. Hammond, "Quick Response in Retail/Manufacturing Channels," in Globalization, Technology, and Competition: The Fusion of Computers and Telecommunications in the 1990s, ed.
And cyborgs -- cybernetic organisms, fusions of computer programming and biology, real live quasi-humans, with intelligence for sure, and maybe, just maybe, with free will.
But the fusion of handheld computer and high-speed wireless connectivity is compelling, and the technology is ready.
The result is a new, interdisciplinary field called "data science"—a fusion of statistics, computer science, and analytics in which researchers analyze large quantities of data, identify meaningful trends, and then find a way to exploit the resulting knowledge.
In J.K. Aggarwal, editor, Multisensor Fusion for Computer Vision, Springer-Verlag, 1993.
This nascent fusion of corpus and computer may pave the way for further integration of circuitry and self.
By bringing to life the story of the remarkable fusion of music and computer science at Stanford, Andrew Nelson has provided a work of not only insight but also usefulness.
Merged reality is basically a fusion of VR and computer vision that gives a virtual reality headset the ability to understand the context around it, including the people, places and things that are unique to the environment.
The physical body of the work occupies a miniscule amount of space, but consists of a highly condensed fusion of chairs, lamps, computer wiring, and dozens of reflective surfaces bearing projected and fragmented clips.
The ultimate fusion of biology and computers, such neurocomputers, should be able to learn in the same way as a living animal.
