Project for Existential Risk - Huw Price The Day We Fight Back - February 11th 2014 Synthetic Environment for Analysis and Simulations Purdue University's Synthetic Environment for Analysis and Simulations, or SEAS, is currently being used by Homeland Security and the US Defense Department to simulate crises on the US mainland.[1] SEAS "enables researchers and organizations to try out their models or techniques in a publicly known, realistically detailed environment."[2] It "is now capable of running real-time simulations for up to 62 nations, including Iraq, Afghanistan, and China. The simulations gobble up breaking news, census data, economic indicators, and climactic events in the real world, along with proprietary information such as military intelligence. [...] The Iraq and Afghanistan computer models are the most highly developed and complex of the 62 available to JFCOM-J9. SEAS was developed to help Fortune 500 companies with strategic planning. Development and use[edit] In 2006 JFCOM-J9 used SEAS to war game warfare scenarios for Baghdad in 2015. Sentient World Simulation[edit] Personnel[edit] Alok R.
NXP With NXP's ARM® continuum you can select the performance you need - whether that's a simple microcontroller, a more advanced Digital Signal Controller (DSC), or a dedicated application processor. And with the broadest ARM portfolio in the industry, you will find the right blend of peripherals and memory options to fit your design. Our award winning solutions cover the entire spectrum of embedded applications with Cortex-M0, Cortex-M3, Cortex-M4, ARM7, and ARM9. And all our devices are built on an optimized ARM core to deliver higher performance, consume less power, and offer more peripherals. Designers can choose from the many tools available in the ARM ecosystem, or use a single, comprehensive toolchain to support all NXP microcontroller devices. Plus, our long-term strategic relationship with ARM gives us early access to next-generation IP, so you can be sure you’re working with the latest technologies. NXP is an mbed founder partner
Securelist - Information about Viruses, Hackers and Spam PhD in temporality La normalité est-elle la nouvelle liberté Pour la chercheuse Kate Crawford (@katecrawford) nous vivons désormais dans "les angoisses des Big Data" explique-t-elle dans le New Inquiry. Pour expliquer de quelle angoisse les Big Data sont le symptôme, elle revient sur le programme Squeaky Dolphin, l'un des programmes de surveillance de masse du service de renseignement britannique qui surveille YouTube, Facebook et Twitter en temps réel, en convoquant pour cela la plupart des disciplines scientifiques (sociologie, anthropologie, science politique...). Pour la chercheuse, cette surveillance en temps réel et cette volonté de la comprendre dans sa totalité sont la marque d'une incroyable anxiété, celle du surveillant. Plus les données sont volumineuses, plus les signaux critiques sont invisibles Pour les altermondialistes britanniques du Plan C, l'anxiété n'est-elle pas la phase actuelle et dominante du capitalisme, celle qui engendre le désespoir politique, l'insécurité et la ségrégation sociale ?

Information Awareness Office The Information Awareness Office (IAO) was established by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in January 2002 to bring together several DARPA projects focused on applying surveillance and information technology to track and monitor terrorists and other asymmetric threats to U.S. national security, by achieving "Total Information Awareness" (TIA).[4][5][6] This was achieved by creating enormous computer databases to gather and store the personal information of everyone in the United States, including personal e-mails, social networks, credit card records, phone calls, medical records, and numerous other sources, without any requirement for a search warrant.[7] This information was then analyzed to look for suspicious activities, connections between individuals, and "threats".[8] Additionally, the program included funding for biometric surveillance technologies that could identify and track individuals using surveillance cameras, and other methods.[8] History[edit]
