Computers used to 'see' neurons to better understand brain function

Posted: 06 Mar 2014 08:22 AM PST

A study reveals new information about the motor circuits of the brain that may one day help those developing therapies to treat conditions such as stroke, schizophrenia, spinal cord injury or Alzheimer's disease. In this study, which processed images and reconstructed neuronal motor circuitry in the brain, the researchers collected and analyzed data on minute structures over various developmental stages, linking neuroscience and computer science.

Engineering team increases power efficiency for future computer processors

Posted: 06 Mar 2014 06:55 AM PST

Scientists have made major improvements in computer processing using an emerging class of magnetic materials called 'multiferroics,' and these advances could make future devices far more energy-efficient than current technologies.

IT security for the daily life: Withdrawing money at cash machines with 'Google Glass'

Posted: 06 Mar 2014 06:54 AM PST

Mini-computers with head-mounted display like 'Google Glass' don't just alarm privacy activists. Rather, they also enable applications increasing data protection. Computer scientists demonstrate this by combining Google Glass with cryptography methods and novel techniques of image processing to withdraw money at cash machines or to read encrypted documents.

Collecting digital user data without invading privacy

Posted: 06 Mar 2014 06:52 AM PST

The statistical evaluation of digital user data is of vital importance for analyzing trends. But it can also undermine the privacy. Computer scientists have now developed a novel cryptographic method that makes it possible to collect data and protect the privacy of the user at the same time.

Security tools for Industry 4.0

Posted: 05 Mar 2014 05:46 AM PST

An increasing number of unsecured, computer-guided production machinery and networks in production facilities are gradually evolving into gateways for data theft. New security technologies may directly shield the sensitive data that is kept there.
