ABSTRACT Multi-touch technology is an advanced human-computer interaction technique that recognizes multiple touch points and also includes the hardware devices that implement it, which allow users to compute without conventional input devices . Multi-touch consists of a touch screen (screen, table, wall, etc.) or touchpad, as well as a software that recognizes multiple simultaneous touch points, as opposed to the standard touch screen which recognizes only one touch point at a time. Multi touch using Frustrated Total Internal Reflection is a simple, inexpensive, and scalable technique for enabling high-resolution multi touch sensing on rear-projected interactive surfaces.

The magnetic hard disk’s tenure as a critical part of the storage technology mosaic is entering its sixth decade, and it shows no sign of ending any time soon. However, certain limitations imposed by rotating media have been coming to the fore lately, and SSDs, which can in theory resolve all these problems, have long been hailed as the eventual successor technology for mass storage.

The Summer 2009 edition of the twice-yearly Top 500 Supercomputer List is out, and there are some notable changes in this latest version. In terms of the perennial Intel/AMD horse race, after a period of holding steady at roughly 12 percent, AMD’s Opteron has resumed its decline as a total share of the processor families represented. AMD dropped from 12.2 percent six months ago to 8.6 percent on the current list, while Intel’s Xeons climbed from 73.6 percent to 78.6 percent.

SSDs are everyone’s favorite inevitability, but due to rising NAND cost and other factors, SSDs won’t achieve deep penetration in the notebook or low-cost markets in 2009 or 2010, NAND vendors expect . In 2010 and 2011, decreasing costs, increasing performance differentials, and Windows 7 will provide the push that makes SSDs a mainstream part of the PC storage portfolio.

ABSTRACT Biologically inspired (often hyphenated as biologically-inspired) computing (also bio-inspired computing) is a field of study that loosely knits together subfields related to the topics of connectionism, social behaviour and emergence. It is often closely related to the field of artificial intelligence, as many of its pursuits can be linked to machine learning. It relies heavily on the fields of biology, computer science and mathematics

You have to follow CNBC to get the straight talk from the master seer : “Oil could be closer to $100 a barrel towards the end of this year, this could be a negative shock to the economy.” Or you could have gotten the much less publicized version of the relatively same opinion almost two months ago : No matter – if oil continues its march, consumers won’t be joining the summer of love. And any chance of the recovery the powers that be are trying to convince them is well in hand will be swirling in a tanker parked off the Gulf Coast

ABSTRACT The field of surgery is entering a time of great change, spurred on by remarkable recent advances in surgical and computer technology. Only recently have robotic systems made their way into the operating room as dexterity-enhancing surgical assistants and surgical planners, in answer to surgeons’ demands for ways to overcome the surgical limitations of minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. The first generation of surgical robots is already being installed in a number of operating rooms around the world.

ABSTRACT In this seminar , we are giving some basic concepts about smart cards. An artificial passenger (AP) is a device that would be used in a motor vehicle to make sure that the driver stays awake. IBM has developed a prototype that holds a conversation with a driver, telling jokes and asking questions intended to determine whether the driver can respond alertly enough.

Recently and open letter was sent to Google CEO Eric Schmidt by security experts, lawyers, and privacy advocates asking why Gmail users are “needlessly” being put at risk.The 38 strong signatories want Google to start using the secure version of the HTTP protocol to protect Gmail users. Ben Edelman, one of the signatories to the letter argued that because more people use insecure Internet access – such as wi-fi in coffee shops, libraries, there’s a real risk of session hijacking,” Edelman argue further that though Gmail login process is done on HTTPS but once the user login session is completed, all data transmission is done on regular HTTP which is not secure, hi-tech criminals using sophisticated snooping devices can capture sensitive data or even hi-jack a Gmail account users session and send messages pretending to be the user.

Australian Scholars Believe Heat Generated by Laser Printers May Cause Harmful Levels of Toner Particles Many of us spend one-third of our lives or more in office space surrounded by copiers and laser printers, both of which use toner — the new second-hand smoke. Well, maybe that's an exaggeration but Lidia Morawska and her colleagues at the Queensland University of Technology continue to investigate a danger that may lurk in the average office — laser printer particle emissions. Morawska Ups the Ante With a Follow-Up Study Morawska's initial 2007 study Particle Emission Characteristics of Office Printers , created some bad blood with HP because it reported that HP LaserJet printers had among the worst emission levels
