A cognitive radio is a transceiver that automatically changes its transmission or reception parameters , in a way where the wireless communications can have spectrum agility in terms of selecting available wireless channels opportunistically. The main process is also called dynamic spectrum management .

D-Wave Systems - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

D-Wave Systems, Inc. is a quantum computing company, based in Burnaby , British Columbia . On May 11, 2011, D-Wave System announced D-Wave One , labeled "the world's first commercially available quantum computer," and also referred to it as an adiabatic quantum computer using quantum annealing to solve optimization problems operating on an 128 qubit chip-set. [ 1 ] The D-Wave One was built on early prototypes such as D-Wave's Orion Quantum Computer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Wave_Systems
Simulated reality is the proposition that reality could be simulated—perhaps by computer simulation —to a degree indistinguishable from "true" reality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_reality

(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– Scientists at UC Santa Barbara have made a major discovery in how the brain encodes memories. The finding, published in the December 24 issue of the journal Neuron, could eventually lead to the development of new drugs to aid memory. The team of scientists is the first to uncover a central process in encoding memories that occurs at the level of the synapse, where neurons connect with each other. http://www.sciencecodex.com/ucsb_scientists_discover_how_the_brain_encodes_memories_at_a_cellular_level
