Deep Tech innovations “The underlying intellectual property of deep tech innovations is usually well-protected and hard to reproduce, making it a strong competitive advantage or barrier to entry.” Since 2001 TF Consulting has been specialized in providing highly qualified services in various different high-tech sectors. Our work focuses on the development and introduction…
How I used Unix to get things done “UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity.” ~ Dennis Ritchie Back in the days Dennis Ritchie – created the C programming language and, with long-time colleague Ken Thompson, the Unix operating system. Ken Thompson – an American pioneer of computer…
Production optimization of interlinked machines Baseline situation Measurement technology plays an important role in the increasing digitalization of industrial production. With the almost complete networking of plants and devices, a significantly higher degree of automation is achieved, accompanied by an increase in efficiency. In the manufacturing industry, this type of digitization is called “Industry…
