That Was Tricky: The logic analyzer versus a DVM
Thus, in our department we had many computer rooms containing four to eight computers for the students to use, but only one of these computers would be connected to a printer. So it made a good sense to have a sharing device that would allow printing ...
DOCOMO Beijing Labs Reduces Development Time of Mobile Communications ...
The researchers need to perform multiple simulations that are computationally intensive and take weeks to run on a single computer. Parallel Computing Toolbox and MATLAB Distributed Computing Server eased the task of distributing simulations on their ...
The mighty Commodore 64 turns 30
By Rhodri Marsden Back in 1982, home computers didn't come with soothing start-up chimes, welcoming splash screens and airbrushed icons.
Canalys crowns Apple top Smartphone vendor in 2011 as iPad surges past PC growth
By Daniel Eran Dilger Smartphones passed up PCs for the first time last year, with Apple leading that industry while iPad accounted for most of the growth among computers, alongside moderate sales of notebooks, nearly flat sales of desktops, ...
What's New in PowerVR Series6 Graphics, Video and Display IP Cores?
Based on the Rogue architecture, the PowerVR Series6 sets a new benchmark for high performance computing on ultra-low power GPU cores ranging from smartphones to tablets and escalating to high-end gaming computers. Building on the maturity and success ...
Off course for a maritime disaster
The electronic smorgasbord of radar screens, depth sounders, GPS, mapping and tracking systems should have given them an awesome display of the cruise ship's position, speed, and course in real time, and have pointed out any ships, rocks or coastlines ...
DesignCon 2012: New Sessions & Product Teardowns Announced for Premier Systems ...
Banerjee's own research interests include very-large-scale integration (VLSI) computer-aided design, parallel computing and compilers, and he is the author of about 300 research papers in these areas. DesignCon's four days of educational sessions will ...
Winners and losers of CES 2012
By Dan Grabham Now that our jetlag is subsiding, it's time to take a look back at the utter madness that was, and always is, the Consumer Electronics Show. CES 2012 didn't have a huge amount of absolute stand out kit, but for a time of financial ...
CES is over; it's time to start designing
Banerjee's own research interests include VLSI computer-aided design, parallel computing, and compilers. He is the author of about 300 research papers in these areas, so his thoughts will be worth tapping into.
Sanitize your hard drives with Drive eRazer Ultra
For this review, I used a Drive eRazer Ultra on a handful of SATA and PATA hard drives taken from friends' and other computers that had been put aside for disposal or repurposing. (Note: The Drive eRazer Ultra is only intended for mechanical hard ...
Researchers Develop New Technique to Obtain Nanorod Arrays
"This transmission electron micrograph (a) shows cadmium sulfide nanorods forming arrays that are aligned and oriented parallel to the cylindrical microdomains of block copolymers. The schematic drawing (b) illustrates copolymers with nanorods.
Apple to Redesign Battery Shapes for Future, Thinner Devices
Rechargeable batteries are presently used to provide power to a wide variety of portable electronic devices, including laptop computers, mobile phones, PDAs, digital music players and cordless power tools. The most commonly used type of rechargeable ...
A Mobile Solar Generator For Energy-Impoverished Rural Areas
