Editor's Notes
- Where is the IT? Reference quotes from Apollo guide.
- NACA Space Technology Committee meeting on May 26, 1958. No laptops? Blackberries? Did we have a CIO?
- You may remember the IBM type 704. I don’t. NASA engineers working with an electronic data processing machine used for making computations for aeronautical research. Could they even have imagined the capabilities of today’s computing?
- Innovation abounds at NASA. This is especially true in Information Technology as low cost and raid advancement enables myriad support and mission organizations to quickly acquire and “evaluate” technology.
- Each of these organizations can - and do - meaningfully contribute to the discourse, but historically, there has been no forum for the organization of these activities across the entire Agency into a coherent dialogue.
- Instead, Scientists, Missions and Projects are building their own computing infrastructure, and functioning autonomously because the CIO-supported technologies are not “innovative” enough to meet their needs, or do not fit within their budgets. This results in duplicative research, engineering, integration, and procurement efforts.
- We must also innovate on HOW we innovate. What is the process of innovation itself? How do we go from the origination of an idea to its transformation into something useful? And how to we develop a streamlined process for repeating this process over and over again? How can we understand the IT requirements of NASA’s scientists and researchers and ensure that they will have access to the most innovative Information Technology resources in the world?

- Let’s take a look at Google… Google employs a 80/20 time split, where 80% of employees’ time is spent on company-directed projects, and 20% is reserved for employees to pursue creative self-directed side projects. When employees feel like their organization supports them, and that they have the freedom & empowerment to create, they are inspired, motivated and are excited to come to work every day. In 2005, 50% of all Google product releases were a result of the 20% independent project time. ( Marissa Mayer )

- In order to understand our future needs and make informed decisions about IT infrastructure, we must explore the bleeding edge.
- In order to understand our future needs and make informed decisions about IT infrastructure, we must explore the bleeding edge.
- This is a fundamentally different approach than has existed in the past and it is going to be increasingly important in the future . We must continue to evolve and modernize our practices if we hope to attract and retain tomorrow’s explorers. The generation just entering today’s workforce – generation Y - is currently 25% of the workforce and is projected to be 47% of the workforce by 2014.
- They have grown up in a world that is connected, accessible, interactive and open. They do not remember a time without computers, smart phones, email, iPods, video cams, instant messaging and social networking services.
- Generation Y is marked by an increased use and familiarity with communications, media, and digital technologies. They expect the ability to communicate electronically and wirelessly in real-time from anywhere in the world. This picture comes from Dryden Flight Research Center. California Polytechnic State University student Andrew Welborn collects C-17 landing noise data using a laptop with enhanced sound card and connected to a GPS receiver.
- They expect immediate access to information and they live the real-time web. Networks and conversations don’t “end.”
- Many are comfortable blurring the lines between work and life. For them, a job does not end when you leave your office. They believe that you should have the flexibility to work from anyplace because technology makes it possible.
- The next generation wants – and expects – to participate and for their ideas to be heard.
- IT technology – in addition to space exploration – is an increasingly important way for us to reach out to the next generation and attract tomorrow’s workforce.
- Where is the bleeding edge in IT? Silicon Valley. I have the benefit of having spent the last several years in Silicon Valley, an area known for the high density of truly ground-breaking, innovative and “game-changing” companies. Before joining NASA I was involved in starting and growing a number of technology companies… (talk about your past experience) [Note your observations] There are few key things to note about these companies, and the new generation that is primarily leading them.

- So how do we do this? Culture is the momentum that results from the accretion of Process, Values, and People built into the organization.

- This is a chemical sensing prototype for iPhone developed by NASA Ames Research Center physicist Jing Li. The device is about the size of a postage stamp and is designed to collect, process and transmit sensor data. The new device is able to detect and identify low concentrations of airborne ammonia, chlorine gas and methane. It senses chemicals in the air using a "sample jet" and a multiple-channel silicon-based sensing chip, which consists of 16 nanosensors, and sends detection data to another phone or a computer via telephone communication network or Wi-Fi.
