Researchers at MIT are developing systems that could allow humans, robots and other autonomous vehicles to collaborate on everything from navigation to trip planning, and eventually pave the way for the operation of personal aircraft and driverless cars. The technology views the process of collaboration as a diagnostic problem, Williams says.

In the late 1940s, researchers immediately recognized the ability of the new magnetic materials to store data. A circular magnetic core could be magnetized counterclockwise or clockwise, storing a 0 or a 1. As late as 1957, more than 400 engineers attended a conference on magnetic amplifiers. Early prototypes of NASA’s.
