Real world Technologies – IBM’s Blue Gene/Q conclusively demonstrates that a CPU designed for throughput can match and even exceed the power efficiency of GPUs. There is still a gap in terms of area efficiency, but smaller than the data suggests given that Blue Gene/Q includes a large cache and robust interconnects that are not …
Good design, solar hot water and energy efficient appliances in houses can reduce energy consumption by 50-80 per cent compared to the average Queensland household. “Good architecture is essential, but green houses are also dependent on good urban planning,” she said. “Housing estates need to be carved up to accommodate environmentally friendly architecture, allowing for …
Terry Grossman is talking about mimicking caloric restriction. Carbo concentration diet. Want a BMI of 23-24. BMI23-24 5 foot 7 inches then weight 146-153 lbs BMI 30-35 over 190 lbs reduces life by 2-4 years BMI 40-45 over 255 lbs reduces life by 8-10years (like heavy smoking) and is if you load all of your …
RL Laboratories, LLC, and the University of Michigan have built a type of artificial synapse using memristors The researchers developed a vertically integrated hybrid electronic circuit by combining the novel memristor developed at the University of Michigan with wafer scale heterogeneous process integration methodology and CMOS read/write circuitry developed at HRL. “This hybrid circuit is …
he object of this proposal is to conduct a feasibility study for a novel, fusion-powered, space propulsion architecture that can ultimately change drastically the potential for human and robotic space exploration. The proposed design is based on neutron-free nuclear fusion as the primary energy source. An innovative beam conditioning/nozzle concept enables useful propulsive thrust directly …
Japan has a target for a large scale 1 gigawatt space based solar power system in 2030 Currently, four major research activities associated with the SSPS are conducted by JAXA. The first floor is the demonstration of wireless power transmission by microwave and laser. JAXA will test technologies including training and pointing of a beam …

Columbia Tribune – Sidney Kimmel, founder and chairman of The Jones Group — which includes brands such as Anne Klein, Nine West and Gloria Vanderbilt — donated the money through his charitable foundation. The money will be used to create the Sidney Kimmel Institute for Nuclear Renaissance, SKINR, which will involve researchers from the Missouri …
North Dakota produced 488068 barrels of oil per day in October, 2011 This is 100,000 barrels per day more than in June, 2011. North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources Director Lynn Helms indicated that the boom in North Dakota oil is likely to lead to over 500,000 barrels per day by the end of 2011 …
EEtimes – researchers are finding phase-change memory (PCM) technology a good candidate for use as programmable artificial synapses in neuromorphic circuitry because of its great energy efficiency, scaling potential, endurance and reliability. Researchers from a combination of several European labs led by CEA, Leti and Minatec will report on their search to reduce the high …
Eurogames Microsoft’s next-generation Kinect 2 will be so powerful it will enable games to lip read, detect when players are angry, and determine in which direction they are facing. When Kinect launched in November 2010 the depth sensor was set at a 30 frames per second limit and a 320×240 resolution limit. The issue relates …
