Artificial Magnetic Monopoles Discovered
A team of researchers from Cologne, Munich and Dresden have managed to create artificial magnetic monopoles. To do this, the scientists merged tiny magnetic whirls, so-called skyrmions. At the point of merging, the physicists were able to create a monopole, which has similar characteristics to a fundamental particle postulated by Paul Dirac in 1931. In [...]
Latest Experian report highlights our love affair with smartphones – and the risk this poses to corporate data
“By all means allow staff to use their smartphones to communicate on the move – using voice, text and basic email. But when it comes to risking the integrity of the company’s data, encryption at source is the best security defense possible.” – Dave Anderson, Voltage Security CUPERTINO, CA, May 30, 2013 — Commenting on [...]
Quest for Quantum Computing Advanced
Research teams from UW-Milwaukee and the University of York investigating the properties of ultra-thin films of new materials are helping bring quantum computing one step closer to reality. An on-going collaboration between physicists from York and the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, USA, is focusing on understanding, tailoring and tuning the electronic properties of topological insulators [...]
Big Data, for Better or Worse: 90% of World’s Data Generated Over Last Two Years
A full 90% of all the data in the world has been generated over the last two years. The internet companies are awash with data that can be grouped and utilised. Is this a good thing? An increasing amount of data is becoming available on the internet. Each and every one of us is [...]
Bionimbus Protected Data Cloud to Enable Researchers to Analyze Cancer Data
The University of Chicago has launched the first secure cloud-based computing system that enables researchers to access and analyze human genomic cancer information without the costly and cumbersome infrastructure normally needed to download and store massive amounts of data. The Bionimbus Protected Data Cloud, as it is called, enables researchers who are authorized by [...]
Data Storage: Synchronized at the ‘Write Time’
Numerical simulations show how to avoid imperfections in the next generation of high-density data storage. The rise of the internet and the move from paper to digital information has driven a need for large-volume electronic data storage. Maria Yu Lin and her co‐workers at the A*STAR Data Storage Institute, Singapore, have now established some [...]
How Hard Is It to ‘De-Anonymize’ Cellphone Data?
The proliferation of sensor-studded cellphones could lead to a wealth of data with socially useful applications — in urban planning, epidemiology, operations research and emergency preparedness, among other things. Of course, before being released to researchers, the data would have to be stripped of identifying information. But how hard could it be to protect the [...]
Engineers Develop Techniques to Boost Efficiency of Cloud Computing Infrastructure
Computer scientists at the University of California, San Diego, and Google have developed a novel approach that allows the massive infrastructure powering cloud computing as much as 15 to 20 percent more efficiently. This novel model has already been applied at Google. Researchers presented their findings at the IEEE International Symposium on High Performance Computer [...]
Quantum Cryptography Theory Has a Demonstrated Security Defect
Researchers at Tamagawa University announced August 10 that they had demonstrated the incompleteness and limit of the security theory in quantum key distribution. The present theory cannot guarantee unconditional security. Details will be given at the SPIE conference on Quantum Communication and Quantum Imaging on August 15, 2012. Many papers claim that the trace distance, [...]
