| Exploring the magnetism of a single atom Posted: 08 May 2014 11:18 AM PDT Scientists have shown for the first time the maximum theoretical limit of energy needed to control the magnetization of a single atom. The fundamental work can have great implications for the future of magnetic research and technology.  |
| A lab in your pocket: Using CAD to load dozens of tests on a lab-on-a-chip Posted: 07 May 2014 06:23 PM PDT Labs-on-a-chip hold huge promise for reducing the cost of medical diagnostics while expanding access to health care. Now scientists have developed software that would make them even more powerful: by enabling dozens of tests on a single biochip.  |
| i, Solo: Musicians perform as the soloist with full philharmonic orchestra at home Posted: 07 May 2014 01:50 PM PDT Musicians can now perform as the soloist with a full philharmonic orchestra from the comfort of their own living rooms, thanks to a new computer system. To model the hearing of the accompanists -- and thus be able to identify, and respond to, the notes played by the soloist, and when they occur -- the system uses an algorithm known as a hidden Markov model, which is commonly employed in speech-recognition technologies.  |
| Math makes mobile maps meaningful Posted: 07 May 2014 06:58 AM PDT Due to the success of navigation devices and smartphones, digital maps are used widely in everyday life. They guide us safely along motorways or to the next bakery as long as the map is good and clear. However, representation of many information items on small, mobile screens is not trivial. Computer scientists have now developed a method to ensure mathematically optimal adaptation of the labeling to the perspective and driving direction.  |
