The Applied Technology Institute specialises in technical training and continuing education organisation with particular emphasis on short courses, seminars, professional development and technical training. The site includes links to information resources on topics such as acoustics, sonar, space and aerospace. There are details of courses and technical seminars in acoustics, noise, sonar, computer programming, information technology, radar, missiles, combat systems, remote sensing, signal processing, space, satellite and aerospace engineering.


Electro Magnetic Remote Sensing Defence Technology Centre

This site provides access to the official website of the EMRS, which is one of the UK Ministry of Defence's Defence Technology Centres (DTCs). The DTCs have been set up to bring together industry and academic experts in areas of technology with the MoD so they can work together to improve the UK's defence capabilities. The EMRS DTC is funded by the MoD with the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory acting as the contracting authority. The consortium is lead by BAE Systems Avionics Limited who are the prime contractors. This site provides information on EMRS DTC including its organisation and management, press releases, events and full text briefing papers. It also contains details on research programmes which include RF Systems, EO Systems, Transduction Devices and Materials, and Transducer Embedded Processing. There is also information on research proposals which include Battle Damage Assessment and TeraHertz Imaging.


IEEE Xplore Digital Library Subscriptions

IEEE Xplore Digital Library Subscriptions is provided by the IEEE (Institution of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) and the IEE (Institution of Electrical Engineers). The service allows subscribers to search for, browse and access the citations, abstracts and full text of all journal articles, conference papers and standards published by both bodies back to 1988. The site provides access to the service, support and an FAQ.


IEEE Xplore

Provided by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), this is the Web site of IEEE Xplore. This facility allows IEEE members to search for and access the abstracts and citations of IEEE publications since 1988.
