A mission oriented, integrated,
science-based research program to
develop and implement a new
post-industrial technology and
economy based on the systemic science of
evolutionary/developmental closed-cycle
environmentally-sustainable cellular systems
Research on systemic production
& evolutionary/developmental
systems via generative systems,
capability based design, SRS,
systems biology, refinement calculus, etc.
INFORMATION: Generative system
software for communications,
automation & system regulation.
ENGINEERING: Knowledge-based &
simulation-based design automation throughout
the product life-cycle.
ENERGY: Renewable energy systems, energy
storage and energy management (ocean
energy, hydrogen and smart microgrids).
ENVIRONMENT: Natural environment survey,
modelling and monitoring. Closed Cycle
Environmental Life Support Systems (CCELSS).
APPLIED
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
Environmentally benign,
renewable energy capture &
storage providing reliable,
bulk, baseload, dispatchable
power via a smart microgrid.
SUSTAINABLE WATER
Renewable energy driven,
stored and on-demand RO
desalination for potable
water, food production and
community / industry use.
SUSTAINABLE FOOD
Climate independent local
hydroponic, aeroponic &
aquaponic food production
to meet nutritional, cultural
& cuisine requirements.
Sustainable Environments
Balanced, non-toxic, inflows &
outflows to natural environments
and communities
Sustainable Transport & Cities
Integrated planning & operation of
construction, maintenance, utilities,
transport & recycling automation
Sustainable Industry
Distributed local production cells and
integrated logistics based on the ISO
STEP Standard
