Welcome to another episode of Behind the Numbers, hosted by Dave Bookbinder. Today, we delve into the intriguing world of hypernomics with Doug Howarth, the CEO of Hypernomics, Inc. and author of "Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems." Doug shares his unique insights on how hypernomics can reveal the underlying structures that support and constrain market numbers in various industries. Doug introduces the concept of hypernomics, explaining how it rearranges familiar market elements into multidimensional views, offering a deeper understanding of market dynamics. For instance, in the housing market, hypernomics can elucidate the relationships between factors like square footage, lot size, and price, and can predict the upper limits of housing prices in a given area. This methodology has proven effective across multiple industries, beyond just raw commodities. Doug illustrates the practical applications of hypernomics with relatable examples, such as choosing a washing machine and optimizing restaurant seating during COVID-19. These stories demonstrate how hypernomics can simplify complex decisions and improve business outcomes, even for small local businesses. In the episode, Doug also discusses how hypernomics can be a powerful tool for business leaders, offering a competitive advantage by identifying market gaps and potential new products. The software developed by Hypernomics, Inc. allows businesses to map out competitive spaces and understand the demand limits for their products, preventing costly mistakes and maximizing profitability. Investors can also benefit from hypernomics. Doug explains how their private fund, using principles of hypernomics, significantly outperformed the S&P 500, demonstrating the effectiveness of this approach in stock market investing. Looking to the future, Doug envisions hypernomics becoming an integral part of industry, academia, and government, revolutionizing how we understand and navigate markets. He hopes that hypernomics will be taught in universities and widely adopted, making the world a better place through more informed decision-making.

You can also find his book on the Wiley, Barnes & Noble, or Amazon websites. About our guest: Doug Howarth, CEO Hypernomics, Inc. & Author of Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems Doug Howarth unleashed a paradigm shift. He discovered Hypernomics. It alters economics in the same way relativity changed physics, as it uses new frames of reference. It starts with four dimensions and adds time for a fifth. But, there is no upper limit to the dimensions considered. It finds the linked, opposing, self-organizing states of Value and Demand at work against each other at all times - just like the game of tug-of-war.  At age 14, Doug Howarth sensed the plotting systems created by René Descartes were inadequate for many tasks. Decades later, he made a series of startling discoveries. He found the economy self-organizes in recognizable opposing patterns and devised ways to portray markets in four, five, or any number of dimensions. Doug named this new field Hypernomics. In 2011, he formed a company, Hypernomics, Inc., who show their customers how to take advantage of Hypernomics.  Hypernomics. Inc. has worked for NASA, United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, among others. Along with two of his Hypernomics colleagues, he was awarded US Patent Number 10,402,838 for Multivariable Regression Analysis, the world's first software designed to deconstruct markets into their 4D structures. ​Doug has written 13 peer-reviewed publications across four continents.  They've been issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS), among others. NASA has requested that he speak to them three times. He has spoken to the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in London four times, and they have published his peer-reviewed work as well.

This is a repost of Episode 51, shared again in April 2023 due to the importance and timeliness of the topics in this discussion. Kelly and Felix join to talk about their new book Racing Toward Zero – The Untold Story of Driving Green. Kelly Senecal is a co-founder and owner of Convergent Science. Felix Leach is an Associate Professor of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford, a post held jointly with that of Fellow and Tutor in Engineering Science at Keble College Order the book now: https://www.sae.org/publications/books/content/r-501/ About Racing Toward Zero: In Racing Toward Zero, the authors explore the issues inherent in developing sustainable transportation. They review the types of propulsion systems and vehicle options, discuss low-carbon fuels and alternative energy sources, and examine the role of regulation in curbing emissions. All technologies have an impact on the environment, from internal combustion engine vehicles to battery electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, and hybrids—there is no silver bullet. The battery electric vehicle may seem the obvious path to a sustainable, carbon-free transportation future, but it's not the only, nor necessarily the best, path forward. The vast majority of vehicles today use the internal combustion engine (ICE), and this is unlikely to change anytime soon. Improving the ICE and its fuels—entering a new ICE age—must be a main route on the road to zero emissions. How do we go green? The future requires a balanced approach to transportation. It's not a matter of choosing between combustion or electrification; it's combustion and electrification. As the authors say, “The future is eclectic.” By harnessing the best qualities of both technologies, we will be in the best position to address our transportation future as quickly as possible.

Dr. Boris Zhmud, born in Russia, now based in Stockholm, Sweden, has more than 20 years of professional experience in lubricants and lubrication engineering. He has authored or co-authored more than 80 peer-reviewed publications and has several patents. He currently consults on tribological problems for companies in Europe, including in Germany and in the UK. He is also a member of the British Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE). In tribology, theory is good to explain observations in retrospect. But the predictive power of tribology is rather limited, he says. "Tribology is very much an empirical science. In empirical science, you have a huge amount of data, but what is usually published is only positive results." However, he believes that negative results are as valuable as positive results. "That's really what can be done by using big data analysis and artificial intelligence (AI). You can accumulate all your previous test information. You can get much more reliable information for your next step." Artificial intelligence is a very important area for the development of tribology, he says. "It is really remarkable what you can achieve." In this episode of F+L Webcast, Dr. Zhmud discusses the beauty of tribology, the new tribological challenges of electrical vehicles, and why the energy transition should be an evolution, not a revolution.

What’s it all about? Wireless Charging!! A concept that blows the mind of some, and yet it’s here and in operation. I met Andy Daga at a conference we were both speaking at, and I’ve wanted to get him onto the podcast ever since. From working on the Space Station, to working on irradicating fuel stations, Andy has a fascinating background, and company doing amazing things. I hope you enjoy the episode. About Andy Daga Andy is the founder and President and CEO of Momentum Dynamics. Andy’s fascinating story takes him from his birthplace of Brooklyn, NY, through Ithaca NY where his family developed the best Italian Restaurant in town through Hawaii, degrees in structural and civil engineering, architecture and space science and technology, ground-breaking work at NASA and his current role at Momentum Dynamics. Prior to founding Momentum Dynamics, Andy was a leading consultant to the aerospace industry and contributed to the design of the International Space Station solar power array system, the Mars Pathfinder program, and future mission planning studies with NASA and the US Department of Defense. Andy will admit that this layered journey wasn’t fully planned, but nor did it happen by accident: as a child, Andy would travel with his family from his home in Brooklyn to visit their extended family in Philadelphia, PA. This route took him through New Jersey and past the bleak refineries of Route 95. As a lover of architectural beauty, the outdoors and being obsessive about ‘all things efficiency’, the New Jersey oil refineries were the antithesis of everything Andy wanted the world to be. Fast forward to Andy’s time at NASA. He came upon the idea of inductive charging while mulling on ways to save cable weight on the International Space Station and future Mars missions. Why employ heavy cabling to carry electrons when it could be done efficiently through a vacuum or even the air itself? Out of this thought was born Momentum Dynamics. Through his varied experiences Andy has developed a strong capacity to identify engineering talent and manage multidisciplinary engineering and business teams. Andy is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) where he serves on a number of standards committees. He believes that every precious piece of our finite resources should be fully valued and carefully spent. He envisions a world of zero emissions, zero cables and zero wasted miles doing anything but making our lives better. He is a devoted husband, family man, polymath and entrepreneur. He is passionate about his dogs and his team at MD - perhaps in that order. He is still working to make the world a better place, one electron at a time. About Momentum Dynamics Momentum Dynamics develops and produces wireless charging systems for the transport industry. The company is based in Malvern, Pennsylvania and employees over 60 engineers, technicians and scientists. The company as deployed wireless systems operating in the United States and Europe. The company’s vision is to increase the adoption of electric vehicles by improving the cost and time efficiency of the EV charging infrastructure and at the time rid the world of charging cables.

At age 14, Doug Howarth sensed the plotting systems created by René Descartes were inadequate for many tasks.  Decades later, he made a series of startling discoveries. He found the economy self-organizes in recognizable patterns and devised ways to portray markets in four, five or any number of dimensions.  Doug named this new field Multidimensional Economics, (ME). In 2011, he formed a company, Multidimensional Economic Evaluators (MEE) Inc., whose primary purpose is to show their customers how to take advantage of ME. MEE Inc. has worked for NASA, United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, among others. Doug has written peer-reviewed publications issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS), among others.  He has spoken to the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in London four times, and they have published his peer-reviewed work as well, in addition to having him give an invited evening lecture.  A sought-after speaker, he has addressed international conferences in Amsterdam, Brussels, St. Petersburg (Russia), Montreal, Melbourne (Australia) New York, New Orleans, Seattle, St. Louis, Albuquerque, Big Sky (Montana), Denver and Phoenix. In September he presents his paper entitled A 7D Trade in Brazil. Last month, he won a Best Paper Award for the Economic and Data Analysis track in the Analysis and Innovation Category by the International Cost Estimating and Analysis Associationâs annual Professional Development & Training Workshop for a paper called, Demand, Recurring Costs, and Profitability. Next month he presents Urban Air Mobility Affordability to the NASA Cost Symposium at the Goddard Space Center. His book, Breaking The Law Of Supply And Demand: Using The New Multidimensional Economics For Business Success awaits publication. To learn more about Doug visit www.meevaluators.com.

Next SPaMCast The next Software Process and Measurement Cast will feature our essay on Managing Agile Projects and Teams (7/15 -7/20/13 and last week updates – Meg). Teams make decisions daily that affect the direction of the sprint and project. The faster these decisions are made the higher the team’s velocity or productivity, and having a solid understanding of the real goals of the project helps the team make decisions more effectively. We will also have columns from Kim Pries with his Software Sensei column and Gene Hughson with an entry from his Form Follows Function column. Shameless Ad for my book!
