If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ — Orb Networks () today announced it has collaborated with intel to update its award-winning media access service to work with Intel’s(R) Remote Wake technology. Orb’s support for this new functionality enables consumers to “wake up” their home PC from energy-efficient sleep mode to access all their media, anytime, from any internet-connected device. Select intel motherboards with support for intel Remote Wake technology will be available next month.
Orb Networks, the place-shifting and media access leader, enables users to enjoy all the media that’s on their PCs — music, photos, videos even live TV (with a tuner card) — while they are away. The new intel Remote Wake technology enables Orb users to put their PC into sleep mode, and “wake it up” with the same simple login and password they use to access their Orb account. Because Orb streams content over the internet, it eliminates the need to synch their media ahead of time. With the ability to remotely wake their PC, Orb users can enjoy whatever they want, whenever they want it, even if they did not leave their computer turned on.
“The ‘remote wake’ feature on the new intel chipsets enable the last piece of media freedom for people who want to enjoy their media while they are away from home,” said Herve Utheza, VP and GM of Orb Networks. “With Orb, OEMs, system integrators, and white box manufacturers can easily put together differentiated configurations that meet the needs of today’s media-savvy consumers, while leveraging a robust and proven application that is energy efficient.”
“Intel was eager to collaborate with Orb Networks on incorporating support for intel Remote Wake technology,” said Joe Van De Water, Director of Consumer Product Marketing at Intel. “We believe Orb users are going to embrace these energy-saving features, and actually extend their media consumption into new areas. With the ability to keep their home PC in sleep mode until they actually need it, people are bound to want access to their photos, videos and music literally anytime, anywhere.”

Dutch National Supercomputer Huygens Beats Human Go Professional

AMSTERDAM and PORTLAND, Oregon, August 14 /PRNewswire/ — - This is a Joint Press Release of Maastricht University, NCF, NWO Physical Sciences and SARA
At the 24th Annual Congress of the game Go, held in Portland, Oregon from August 2-10, the brand-new Dutch supercomputer Huygens defeated a human Go professional in an official match with a 9-stones handicap. It is the first victory of a computer playing Go against a human being. The application ‘MoGo Titan’, developed by INRIA France and Maastricht University, runs on the national supercomputer which is located at SARA in Amsterdam.
After the victory of IBM’s Deep Blue against Garry Kasparov, the game of Go has replaced chess as test bed for AI research. Although there has been quite some research in the Go domain for 40 years, the progress in computer Go has been slow. The best programs played on a (weak) amateur level. All kinds of AI techniques, which were able to produce good results in either games or other application domains, failed to make an impact. Since 2006, when a new algorithm called Monte-Carlo Tree Search was proposed, the level of Go programs has improved drastically.
Blitz games
On August 5, before the “real game”, three blitz games where played with various handicaps. Kim MyungWan was stronger than the computer at these blitz games. So people were expecting the professional to win the non-blitz game. This made the victory of the computer even more spectacular.
System
Huygens, an IBM Power 575 Hydro-Cluster system, is the new Dutch national supercomputer. The system has a peak speed of 60 trillion calculations per second (Teraflop/s), 3328 Power6 processor cores at 4.7 GHz, a total memory capacity of more than 15 TB, and almost 1000 TB disk capacity. The complete system has been in production since August 1 of this year. With the dedicated help of the SARA staff, the Go application could run on the new system within a very short time.
Financers
The research in this project has been financed through the GoForGo project by the Physical Sciences council of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), while the CPU hours of Huygens were granted by the Netherlands National Computing Facilities Foundation (NCF).

And if an SME needs additional assistance, our Professional Services team serves as a ‘pay-as-you-go’ IT department.”
“There are more than 30 million SMEs in the U.S., according to the U.S. Small Business Administration and Internal Revenue Service,” said Martha Bejar, corporate vice president for the Communications Sector at Microsoft. “The SME market is moving toward hosted IT solutions to decrease costs and increase security, reliability and employee productivity.
