New 7th Gen Intel Core Processor: Built for the Immersive Internet
Santa Clara, Calif., USA - August 30, 2016 - The way we interact and connect with each other has evolved. It's richer and more immersive, as video has become an increasingly important medium we use to enhance our conversations. The emergence of 4K Ultra High-Definition, 360-degree video, and virtual reality has dramatically widened and deepened our vantage points. These trends in how we consume and create content, in how we communicate and interact, reflect what we at Intel call the immersive internet. And the best way to take advantage of the immersive internet is on a computer with the performance to deliver a lifelike experience. People need the power to view, the power to create and the power to play - something that the PC is uniquely designed to do. To power these experiences, today I'm excited to unveil the new 7th Gen Intel Core processors. Built for the immersive internet, this new generation of processors leverages our long-standing performance leadership and adds unmatched new media capabilities.

Piton: A 25-core New Academic Manycore Research Processor, Demonstrates Efficiency and Scalable Design at Hot Chips by Princeton University Researchers
Cupertino, California, USA - August 23, 2016 - Princeton University researchers have developed a new computer chip that promises to boost the performance of data centers that lie at the core of numerous online services such as email and social media. The chip - called "Piton" after the metal spikes driven by rock climbers into mountainsides to aid in their ascent - that was designed specifically for massive computing systems, was presented today at Hot Chips, a symposium on high-performance chips held in Cupertino, California. Piton was designed by the Princeton team and manufactured by IBM. Primary funding for the project has come from the National Science Foundation, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

Yavuz Sultan Selim nad Bosforem. Najszerszy na świecie i najdłuższy wiszący most kolejowy na świecie już otwarty
Istanbul, Turcja - 26 sierpnia 2016 - Dziś został udostępniony do ruchu ogromny Most Sułtana Selima Groźnego. Jest to przeprawa drogowo-kolejowa autorstwa francuskiego konstruktora Michela Virlogeux. Łączy europejską i azjatycką część Stambułu. W ceremonii otwarcia uczestniczył m.in. prezydent Turcji Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Nowy most o szerokości 59 m, z dwoma czteropasmowymi jezdniami i dwoma torami kolejowymi, nosi imię Selima Groźnego - jednego z głównych budowniczych potęgi i prestiżu imperium osmańskiego. Most ma wysokość 323 m, czyli może rywalizować z wieżą Eiffla (324 m). Z przeprawy o długości 1,4 km będzie korzystać codziennie 135 tysięcy aut. Opłata za przejazd samochodu z europejskiego brzegu na azjatycki ma kosztować 9,90 tureckich lir (3,4 USD), a w odwrotną stronę ma być darmowa. Łączny koszt budowy trzeciego mostu nad Bosforem, stanowiącego część megaprojektu drogowego Anatolia-Europa o długości 150 km, wyniósł ponad 900 mln dolarów. Ocenia się, że Most Selima Groźnego pozwoli zaoszczędzić rocznie 1,75 mld dolarów dzięki oszczędności czasu i energii potrzebnej do pokonania cieśniny w zatłoczonym 18-milionowym Stambule.

Prof. Jerzy Żyżyński: Złoty powinien być silniejszy
Warszawa - 26 sierpnia 2016 - "Trzeba się zastanowić nad tym, skąd się biorą w Polsce niskie płace. Jednym z powodów jest to, że wysokie są inne koszty, np. koszty importu. To efekt relatywnej słabości złotego: kurs rynkowy jest dużo słabszy od kursu wynikającego z relacji parytetów siły nabywczej. Dla eksporterów to korzystna sytuacja, ale słaby złoty podraża import, a nasza gospodarka jest bardzo importochłonna. Dlatego jestem zwolennikiem silniejszego złotego, czyli zbliżenia kursu rynkowego do kursu parytetowego. W krajach rozwiniętych kurs rynkowy jest zrównany z parytetowym. Problemem nie są stopy procentowe NBP, tylko oprocentowanie kredytów dla firm w bankach, które pozostaje stosunkowo wysokie" - powiedział Grzegorzowi Siemionczykowi, członek Rady Polityki Pieniężnej prof. dr hab. Jerzy Żyżyński.

2016 Intel Developer Forum - Intel's FPGA Future: We're Here to Stay
San Francisco, CA, USA - August 18, 2016 - Day three of the 2016 Intel Developer Forum included something for the first time: the Intel SoC FPGA Developer Forum. This one-day, co-located event focused on the Programmable Solutions Group - formerly known as Altera - and its SoC FPGA technology. Intel CEO Brian Krzanich presented the event keynote, and he answered a variety of questions that many have had since the acquisition. Technology today, as Brian said, continues to "erase the boundary between the digital and physical worlds" as is evident with the rise of technologies such as virtual reality and artificial intelligence. Intel's strategy to enable this smart and connected world reaches all the way from the sensors and actuators to the cloud. And FPGAs and SoC FPGAs will play a central role in enabling this world.

Maciej Kozłowski: Jak kosmos pomógł Internetowi opanować świat
Warszawa - 17 sierpnia 2016 - Na początku lat 90. liczyły się cztery protokoły rozległych sieci komputerowych: Bitnet - oparty na mechanizmach poczty komputerowej bez jakichkolwiek perspektyw na przyszłość; DECnet - sieć firmy Digital Equipment, zaprojektowana ze zbyt szczupłą przestrzenią adresową; X.25 - porządna sieć komputerowa zaprojektowana przez Międzynarodową Unię Telekomunikacyjną, dobrze przystosowana do pracy na łączach o niskiej jakości, nadająca się do zastosowań komercyjnych. Jej wadą było to, że operowała z maksymalną przepustowością 64 kilobity na sekundę. No i był Internet - dziki, prymitywny, zaprojektowany dla celów wojskowych, bez mechanizmów rozliczania należności za transmisję danych. Łatwo przyjął się w środowisku naukowym i akademickim, w którym rozliczanie nie było potrzebne (za wszystko płaciło państwo), łatwy w konfiguracji. Jak się wówczas wydawało, nie nadawał się do transmisji głosu i wideo, ponieważ nie miał wbudowanych mechanizmów dostarczenia do odbiorcy pakietów w określonym (krótkim) czasie. Najważniejsze było to, że został włączony do dystrybuowanego bezpłatnie systemu operacyjnego UNIX. Opanował świat pomimo oczywistych wad, które stopniowo eliminowano.

Dell Services' Innovation Lab for SAP HANA Creates Superior Customer Experience and Value
Plano, Texas, USA - August 2, 2016 - Dell Services introduced its innovation lab for SAP HANA, which is designed to help organizations evaluate, understand and benefit from their investments in the SAP HANA platform. SAP HANA processes enormous volumes of data in seconds, providing instant business insights across industries, business functions and roles. However, deploying an environment running SAP HANA requires an investment, which most organizations must justify by proving the business value. With Dell Services' SAP HANA lab, customers can load up to 30 terabytes (TB) of data to fully configure solutions for prototyping or proof of concepts to help them better understand and articulate the business value.

Intel: The Foundation of Artificial Intelligence
Santa Clara, CA, USA - August 09, 2016 - Intel is a company that powers the cloud and billions of smart, connected computing devices. Thanks to the pervasive reach of cloud computing, the ever decreasing cost of compute enabled by Moore's Law, and the increasing availability of connectivity, these connected devices are generating millions of terabytes of data every single day. The ability to analyze and derive value from that data is one of the most exciting opportunities for us all. Central to that opportunity is artificial intelligence. While artificial intelligence is often equated with great science fiction, it isn't relegated to novels and movies. AI is all around us, from the commonplace (talk-to-text, photo tagging, fraud detection) to the cutting edge (precision medicine, injury prediction, autonomous cars). Machine learning, and its subset deep learning, are key methods for the expanding field of AI. Intel processors power >97% of servers deployed to support machine learning workloads today.
