We spent considerable time and effort in doing packaging and product design via computer. How do you understand how a package effects all parts of the supply chain, from manufacturing, to marketing to shelf, to consumer to recycling. In Technology Review, a related effort that looks at the materials for a product:
Speeding up Materials Design.
A new computer program accurately predicts the behavior of proposed materials, which means faster development of new electronics and solar cells. A chemical compound designed with the aid of a Harvard-created computer program has turned out to be one of the best organic electronic materials to date. This new material, an organic semiconductor, could be used to make new electronics such as colorful displays that roll up. It's an important proof of principle for using computers to aid materials design ...
