Invasion of the earthworms, mapped and analyzed
2015-04-22 12:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] COLUMBUS, Ohio—An international research team is bringing a new weapon to bear against invasive earthworms. The ongoing research project at The Ohio State University, the University of Alberta and Simon Fraser University uses statistical analysis to forecast one worm species' spread, in hopes of finding ways to curtail it. Most recently, they've focused on the boreal forest of northern Alberta. No native worms live in the forest whatsoever; the region …

Costs and benefits of autonomous vehicles analyzed
2015-01-28 19:05:51| Trucking - Topix.net
Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz Future Truck 2025 can operate without driver input via a function the OEM calls "Highway Pilot." Will the costs of autonomous commercial vehicle technology in the trucking industry overshadow the benefits? Or will it prove to be the other way around, with fuel savings, driver lifestyle enhancement, and safety improvements outweighing the price tag of ACVs? and found that some "price-sensitive" markets may be slow to adopt such technology, whereas in others notably the long-haul trucking sector may experience at minimum a return on investment period of three years.

Apples A8 SoC analyzed: The iPhone 6 chip is a 2-billion-transistor 20nm monster
2014-09-10 16:55:22| Extremetech
Powering both the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is Apple's new A8 SoC. This new chip, which contains around two billion transistors, will be one of the first mass-market components to use TSMC's 20nm process. The A8 SoC will, according to Apple, be about 25% faster than its predecessor in CPU tasks, and 50% faster on the GPU side of things. These are some big performance gains that are made even more impressive by the fact that the A8 is reportedly 50% more power efficient than the A7 -- and, despite almost doubling the transistor count, the die size is somehow 13% smaller. Read on for some detailed analysis of Apple's new A8 SoC.
