Fastest Integrated Circuit Doubles the Previous Record, Getting Following up on a 2007 world record for the fastest transistor speed, Northrop Grumman announced today that it has shattered the world record for integrated circuit performance. The new circuit layout operates at 0.67 terahertz, or 0.67 trillion cycles per second, more than doubling the frequency of the fastest known IC in the world. Northrop Grumman's Terahertz Monolithic Integrated Circuit (TMIC) was developed as part of DARPA's Terahertz Electronics program, which aims to introduce the next generation of high-performance electronics that push performance levels above the 1 terahertz center frequency range. Such electronics should lead to better communications technologies, sub-millimeter wave sensors, and terahertz imaging systems that blow current technologies out of the water. Obviously, 0.67 terahertz doesn't quite reach DARPA's goals, which as always are quite ambitious. [Northrop Grumman]

"Google will be one node on a vast social web" | News | TechRada When Chris Messina joined Google in January, just as he turned 29, many were surprised. Why would a guy who'd been so successful in pushing forward the concept of an open and social web give up his independent voice and work for "The Man", as he himself put it? After all, he co-founded BarCamp, helped run the Spread Firefox campaign, proposed the Twitter hashtag, advocated the use of microformats and OAuth and is still a board member of the OpenID and Open Web foundations. "I've worked for myself for the last five years, and there are certain things you can do on your own," explains Messina, who recently ranked third in a list of the most powerful voices in open source. "But there were also conversations that you just can't be part of because you don't represent a million users. Open web advocate Messina's job title at Google is 'open web advocate', the same title he gave himself a year and a half ago. "Google has a lot to learn in this area for sure," he says. Buzz is an outpost

'nesting pc virtual tablet' by sono mocci - 'FUJITSU design award 2011' competition shortlisted entry 'nesting pc virtual tablet' by sono mocci a concept by japanese-born, italy-based designer sono mocci , 'nesting pc virtual tablet' is a combination tablet and data visualization interface with automatic battery charging and data syncing. phones, memory cards, CDs, USB ports, and I/O cables can be plugged directly into the device, where they will show up as images on the touchscreen for easy manipulation and access. the design was shortlisted from over 1000 concepts in our recent designboom competition ' a life with future computing ', organized in collaboration with FUJITSU . the 13-inch concept tablet features a dedicated dock for mobile phones. when inserted, a visualization of the phone onscreen works in the same manner as would the device itself, permitting dialing, calling, texting, and other use. the loading of disk media or flash drives offers a similar intuitive functionality. integrated charging eliminates the need for AC or outlet-specific adapters for these kinds of devices.

DARPA's "Prophecy" Wants to Predict Virus Evolution to Make Drug Biz Proactive DARPA's issued a new "funding opportunity" dubbed Prophecy--it's a program to investigate how virus evolution may be predicted, notionally to improve the way the drug business tackles health threats. But it's DARPA, so there're military issues in the mix too. In the introductory text for its new Prophecy grants program, DARPA notes that "a large number of emerging pathogens impacting human and animal health are viruses," rather than bacterial infections or poisons, and hence Prophecy's task is to stimulate technologies "that predict natural viral evolution" by providing money that advances the science. We're talking paradigm-breaking science here since the note specifically excludes "research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice." It's basically a broad-brush attempt to reinvent portions of the drug industry, for the public good. But this is DARPA here, the defense research agency ... why are they doing this?

7 Tactics for Open Innovation The last decade has seen the rise of collaboration as a by-word for innovation success. This is now often referred to as ‘open innovation’ which we define as sharing the risks and rewards of innovation with others. This may sound simple enough and yet in our experience many large organisations struggle with implementing it as open innovation is it can be highly counter-cultural and disruptive. In this short article we present seven tactics and incentives that can really help to spark open innovation success. 1. Most people feel pretty comfortable with the idea of spreading the risks of innovation with others, however more interesting and difficult is how we collectively share the rewards. 2. There are several good recent studies about what motives people to participate in collaborative projects (e.g. 3. Whilst open innovation is ultimately about creating new value better, cheaper and faster, don’t mistake this for getting something for nothing. 4. 5. 6. 7. Summary

New Class of Smart "Piezotronic" Materials Could Create Self-Powering Micro-Bots Piezoelectric materials have long been used to turn kinetic energy into electrical energy, but a clever application by Georgia Tech researchers is making those materials much smarter. By adding a gate to piezoelectric circuits, researchers have turned a mechanical action directly into a logic operation for the first time. This approach could turn conventional "dumb" circuits into computational circuitry that might run smaller micro-robots to harvest power as they perform their functions. Piezoelectric materials generate a very tiny charge when placed under stresses like twisting or bending. The Georgia Tech researchers formed zinc oxide into nanowire structures that generate a small current when bent back and forth, then incorporated a gate into those wires that regulates the current.
