Trioctylphosphine selenide. Trioctylphosphine selenide (TOPSe) is an organophosphorus compound with the formula SeP(C8H17)3. It is used as a source of selenium in the preparation of cadmium selenide.  TOPSe is a white, air-stable solid that is soluble in organic solvents.  The molecule features a tetrahedral phosphorus center.

Preparation and use
TOPSe is usually prepared by oxidation of trioctylphosphine with elemental selenium:

Often the reaction is conducted without isolation of the TOPSe.

As a solution with trioctylphosphine oxide, TOPSe reacts with dimethylcadmium to give cadmium selenide.  The mechanism is proposed to proceed in two steps, beginning with the formation of cadmium metal followed by its oxidation with the TOPSe.  Similarly it has been used to produce lead selenide.

He is known for his research on achieving "Green" communications systems that have optimal energy efficiency.

Biography
McCune graduated in 1979 with a B.S. in electrical engineering and computer science from UC Berkeley, in 1983 with an M.S. in radioscience from Stanford University, and in 1998 with a Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from UC Davis. His Ph.D. thesis Extended phase-shift keying was supervised by William A. Gardner. In August 1979 in Santa Clara, California, McCune married Barbara A. Percell.

Earl McCune had over 40 years of experience in the wireless communications industry. He held more than 90 patents.

In 1993 in Silicon Valley, he opened an independent consulting office with an extensive research library. He also invested in a sophisticated metrology laboratory with both analog and digital instruments. There the measurements he performed included: "high dynamic phase noise, clock jitter, modulation accuracy and distortion, full semiconductor curve tracing, and vector network analysis."

McCune with colleagues co-founded three successful start-ups. The first was Digital RF Solutions (DRFS), which was founded in 1986 and merged in 1991 with Proxim. The second was Tropian in 1996 and acquired by Panasonic in 2006. After the 2006 acquisition, he became a Technology Fellow at Panasonic and continued to work as an author, instructor, and independent consultant. In 2013 in Mountain View, California, with two other engineers with PhDs, McCune, as CTO, co-founded Eridan Communications, Inc. When he died he was both Eridan's CTO and a part-time professor at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).

TUMnanoSAT. TUMnanoSAT was a nanosatellite and the first artificial satellite made by Moldova. It was built by the Technical University of Moldova (UTM) and was launched on 15 July 2022. SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket carried TUMnanoSAT to the International Space Station (ISS). This was through the SpaceX CRS-25 Commercial Resupply Service mission. In this mission, Falcon 9 carried a SpaceX Dragon 2 spacecraft which contained the J-SSOD launch capsule of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) within which in turn was TUMnanoSAT. The satellite project and its launch was carried out in cooperation with the JAXA and the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) as part of the KiboCUBE program. Once brought to the ISS, TUMnanoSAT was put into orbit from there on 12 August.

The main missions of TUMnanoSAT were to achieve an efficient communications system between the satellite and its ground station, to study the reliability of electronic components when exposed to space radiation, to test the satellite's system for supply of solar power to find out the most appropriate form of distributing the accumulated energy and to observe the behavior of the satellite's nanosensors and micro-wires in open space and of the sensors of the satellite's subsystem to determine and optimize the performance of the satellite.

After the launch of TUMnanoSAT on 15 July, the UTM and Moldcell organized a public lecture dedicated to the satellite's fabrication and mission attended by several children and adolescents to introduce them to the fields of innovation and technology.

TUMnanoSAT reentered the atmosphere on 31 January 2023.

LARIAT. The Lincoln Adaptable Real-time Information Assurance Testbed (LARIAT) is a physical computing platform developed by the MIT Lincoln Laboratory as a testbed for network security applications. Use of the platform is restricted to the United States military, though some academic organizations can also use the platform under certain conditions.

LARIAT was designed to help with the development and testing of intrusion detection (ID) and information assurance (IA) technologies. Initially created in 2002, LARIAT was the first simulated platform for ID testing and was created to improve upon a preexisting non-simulated testbed that was created for DARPA's 1998 and 1999 ID analyses. LARIAT is used by the United States military for training purposes and automated systems testing.

Function
The platform simulates users and reflects vulnerabilities caused by design flaws and user interactions and allows for interaction with real-world programs such as web browsers and office suites while simulating realistic user activity on these applications. These virtual users are managed by Markov models which allow them to act differently from each other in a realistic way.

This results in a realistic simulation of an active network of users that can then be targeted for malicious attacks to test the effectiveness of the attacks against network defenses, while also testing the effectiveness of intrusion detection methods and software in a simulated real-world environment with actual users in amongst the malicious traffic on the network. This is done because network intrusion detection software cannot as easily find instances of malicious network traffic when it is mixed in with non-malicious network traffic generated by legitimate users of the network.

The traffic generators used by the testbed run on a modified version of Linux, and a Java-based graphical user interface called Director is provided to allow users of the platform to configure and control testing parameters and to monitor the resulting network traffic.

Influence
Cyberwarfare training programs such as those at the Korea Institute of Military Science and Technology's research center use the principles and methodologies of the LARIAT platform in the development of simulated threat generators for cyberwarfare training. In non-security contexts, systems such as Artificial Intelligence programs build on the principles of the LARIAT platform to study and then simulate real-time user input and activity for automated testing systems.

LLSIM
The MIT Lincoln Laboratory designed the Lincoln Laboratory Simulator (LLSIM) as a fully virtualized Java-based successor to LARIAT that can be run on a single computer without the need for dedicated physical network hardware or expensive testbeds. It is not a full replacement for LARIAT, however, as it does not generate low-level data such as network packets. While this makes it more scalable than LARIAT since it simplifies certain processes, it cannot be used for certain ID testing purposes that LARIAT can be utilized for.
