Under Powerset's hood is decades-in-the-making natural-language processing technology the company licensed from the Palo Alto Research Center, formerly of Xerox.

In his Intel blog on Monday, Anwar Ghuloum told developers he had some difficult news to deliver: developers should start to think about many, many more cores in the Intel CPUs -- perhaps thousands in the long term. Apple may be anticipating this with the new Grand Central technology in Snow Leopard

Adobe has unveiled Searchable SWF technology and is distributing a "search-engine optimized" version of Flash Player to Google and Yahoo.

Wouldn't it be great if you could become invisible whenever you wanted? Such technology remains far off, but it may not be entirely impossible. Scientists around the globe say they're making progress on theories and experiments involving cloaking.

Offered in 250, 320, and 500 GB capacities, WD® RE3 dual-processor HDDs offer 1.2 million hr MTBF and employ native command queuing. RAFF(TM) technology corrects linear and rotational vibration simultaneously and in real-time, while IntelliSeek(TM) technology calculates optimum seek speeds to minimize power consumption, noise, and vibration. Other features include multi-axis shock sensor; RAID-specific, time-limited error recovery; and NoTouch(TM) ramp load technology.This story is related to the following:Computer Hardware and PeripheralsSearch for suppliers of: Hard Disk Drives

HP researchers find the missing link of processor technology.

Adobe, Google and Yahoo have joined forces to add dynamic Web content and rich Internet applications to search results. The two search companies will use an optimized version of Adobe's Flash Player technology to improve their engines' abilities to index the Flash file format and scan information contained within the files.

Instine writes 'Salford University, in the UK, is showing an article suggesting that Britain's biggest ever rocket has been unveiled, by an academic planning a space tourism offering by 2013. 'Nova 2 qualifies as the biggest rocket ever created and flown from the UK mainland,' says Steve Bennett, Head of Salford's Space technology Laboratory The current offering is said to amount to 20 minutes 'flight' and 3-4 mins floating. I'm not sure how much, but I'd pay for that.' of this story at Slashdot.

nickull wrote in his journal that 'Today Adobe systems made an announcement that it has provided technology and information to Google and Yahoo! to help the two search engine rivals index Shockwave Flash (SWF) file formats. According to the company, this will provide more relevant search rankings of the millions pieces of flash content. Until now, developers had to implement workarounds for exposing text content using in Flash to search engine spiders and other bots such as using XHTML data providers. While the flash content is exposed, it is not yet clear how it will be utilized by the search engines as they have not revealed their algorithms. The SWF specification is openly published.' of this story at Slashdot.
