A New LIBYA Is Born | Muammar Gaddafi dead

     Muammar Gaddafi, the former Libyan strongman who was killed on October 20 2011 as fighters battling the vestiges of his loyalist group forces wrested control of his hometown of Sirte.  The uprising also killed or captured some of the senior aidas, including possibly two sons of gaddafi, as an armoured convoy braved Nato group airstrikes in a desperate id to break our of Sirte.  Now the world hopes that the liberation of Sirte must signal the start of a process to establish a democratic system in which all groups in the country (libya) have their place and where fundamental freedoms are guaranteed.  Hillary Clinton's visit to Tripoli libya two days before the killing of muammar Gaddafi was aimed at cementing a partnership with the new government and helping it steer towards democracy.  Clinton would encourage the National Transitional Council (NTC) to fulfil pledges to move swiftly towards election for a new borne libya.

3D CHIPS, The Next Electronic Generation | 3D CHIPS

  

      The next Electronic Generation starts with the 3D chips.  3D means Three Dimensional Integrated Circuits.  This kind of chips are in which two are more layers of active electronic elctronic components. 

  To accomplish anything in the device, you need to get in your car or bike and drive to another address. Downtown, in a skyscraper, you just use an elevator.

  Elevators are more efficient -- and the semiconductor industry has taken notice (metaphorically speaking) with a trend toward 3D chip design. Instead of putting dies in separate packages, soldered to a circuit board and sending data through their I/O ports to other chips (i.e., driving through the suburbs), dies are stacked and data is moved from one layer to the next (i.e., via the elevator).

  Chip industry insiders, such as Brian Cronquist, vice president at Monolithic 3D Inc., a 3D chip technology startup in San Jose, say that a 3D design using two stacked dies with 22-nanometer geometry would produce much the same result -- including reduced wire length, gate size and consumption of power for devide -- as moving to one die with 15nm.The chip was manufactured with two dies using face-to-face stacking, which allowed a dense via structure.  This a next electronic generation.

A Toast To PERU'S 'LOST CITY' | Incas's lost city Machu Picchu celebrates hundred years of its discovery

Fiber Optic Technology | Fiber Optic Technology Overview | Features Of Fiber Optic Technology Features

   Now Everywhere on this Earth hair-thin optical fibers carry vast huge quantities of information from one place to another place. There are so many desirable properties of optical fibers for carrying the information. They have enormous information-carrying capacity, are low cost, and possess immunity from the many disturbances that can afflict electrical wires, wireless communication links. The superiority of optical fibers for carrying information from place to place is leading to their rapidly replacing older technologies. Optical fibers have played a key role in making possible the extraordinary growth in world-wide communications that has occurred in the last 25 years, and are vital in enabling the proliferating use of the Internet.

Light is channeled through these fibers. Not only light but everything associated with light, images for example, also get transmitted from one end of the fiber optic to the other end. Bends and turns in the fibers pose no hindrance in this transmission.  

The core of fiber optic materials is made of glass or plastic and it is highly transparent. This core is covered with a covering known as ‘cladding’. When light enters from one end and travels through the length of the fiber optic, this ‘cladding’ does not allow it to scatter outside the material.

The ‘cladding’ reflects all the light from inside the surface of the fiber optic. So, even if a bundle inside the fiber optic is not straight, the image is not affected. Fiber optics are capable of carrying light and other information over a wide range of distance. The distance may vary from a few centimeters to many hundred kilometers.  

Fiber optics are primarily of two types. The single-mode fiber optic and the Multi-mode fiber optics.

Single Mode Fiber Optic

It is suitable  for transmissions over long distance  that happen at tremendous speed. They are capable of this because their core is very small and they have the property of accepting light only in the direction of the axis of the fibers. Small lasers are used to send light into fibers. The fibers are joined with low-loss connectors so that there is very less distortion of the light signal.

Multi Mode Fiber Optic

In multi-mode fiber optic materials the cores are big and they also can accept light from a variety of angles and can also function with a variety of light sources. The connectors are used within the materials for fiber are not very expensive. It is done because these fiber optic materials are not meant for long distance transmission only short distance transmission.

ISRO UNVEILS SUPERCOMPUTER | WORLD'S SUPERCOMPUTER | INDIA'S FAST COMPUTER

      World's Fastest Computer. ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) has built a supercomputer (SAGA-2020), which will be India's fastest in terms of theoretical peak performance of 220 Teraflops ( 200 Trillion Floating Point Operations per second ).  Named Satish Dhawan Super-computing Facility, it is located at the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) in Thiruvananthapuram.  The new graphic processing unit ( GPU ) based supercomputer, which has been named SAGA-2020 ( Super-computer for Aerospace with GPU Architecture-220 Teraflops), would be used for solving complex aerospace problems. 

     The supercomputer was fully designed and built by the VSSC, using commercially available hardware and open source software components.  Its total cost was about Rs. 14 crores. The system is environmentally green and consumes a power of only 150kw.                           

SENSITIVE SKIN FOR ROBOTS | Robots with sensitive skin

      The Technical University of Munich (TUM) Scientist, Germany are developing a synthetic (sensitive) skin for robots with a similar to as that of  human skin.  The synthetic skin will provide important tactile information to the robot and thus supplement its perception formed by camara eyes, infrared scanners and gripping hands.  As with human skin, the way artificial skin is touched could, for example, lead to a spontaneous retreat (when  the robot hits an object) or cause the machine to use its eyes for the first time to search for the source of contact.  Such behaviour is expecially important for robotic helpers of people travelling in constantly changing environments. 

    The centrepiece of the new robotic shell is  a five square cm hexagonal plate or circuit board.  Each small circuit board ccontains four infrared sensors that detect anything closer than one cm. "This sensor can register pressure ranging form a firm pinch between your thumb and forefinger to twice the pressure exerted by an elephant standing on one foot.
