Sun has been officially launched JavaFX 1.0, a development of Rich Internet Application (RIA) Java-based framework. Sun expects JavaFX Sun to encourage the popularity of Java and compete with Flash and Silverlight. JavaFX offers two advantages such as framework for rich internet applications operation with beautiful appearence and JavaFX script for easier programming language.
Sun has fully integrated JavaFX into Java Runtime and actively encourages users to install JavaFX through Java update system. This step allows Sun to take advantage from the bigger number of Java to introduce the new JavaFX component to the users. Read the rest of this entry »
Moonlight First release, an open source implementation of the Microsoft Silverlight framework. Moonlight 1.0 is a step forward to bring the compatibility of Silverlight to desktop Linux where Moonlight development started last year after Microsoft demonstrated Silverlight at MIX 2007 event.
Mono developers, in Miguel Icaza and his team have been working to produce prototype Moonlight after holding a hackathon for 20 days and enthusiastic participants are enthusiastic i to create thousands lines of Moonlight codes. When officially released Silverlight in the month of September, Microsoft plans to collaborate with Novell Silverlight developers to ensure full support on Linux platforms.
Moonlight 1.0 is implemented in C++ languages and distributed as a Firefox plug-in. Moonlight brings JavaScript interpreter in Firefox to support scripting Silverlight 1.0. Plug-in is fully open source and licensed under GNU LGPLv2. Until now, Moonlight is only support for x86 architecture and x86-64. Read the rest of this entry »
Yoono maybe heard unfamiliar for you. Yoono is a plug-in for browsers that perceptive, can be used for the creation of social networks and media hub, and supporting Internet Explorer, which will be announced officially on November 7. In conjunction with the new version of Internet Explorer, Yoono will also be integrated with MySpace, Imeem and, as a powerful widget to help monetize plug-in.
Yoono is the same as a few years ago, but has become a browser plug-in since May. As it is, Yoono become a feature in Firefox 3 is recommended for download, and so far has installed about 1.8 million Internet users. Yoono also has the support imeem and MySpace, and also join with Flickr, Twitter, FriendFeed, Facebook and other social networking services. For users of imeem, users can play their music to select the sidebar as the use of other widgets and browsing the web.
Yoono provide channels that are required for each site in order to ensure support and possibly integration. Yoono network add plug-in combined with the interesting UI (User Interface). On November 24, Yoono site will be launched this widget Shopping, which is estimated to be main key for monetize planning.
Once a user browse web, Shopping widget automatically searches relevant issues to purchase products from other store partners, like Amazon, eBay and iTunes.
Yahoo has released a platform of Yahoo! Open Strategy (Y!OS) 1.0, which can be used to bring innovation and content from various third-party sites to the Yahoo network. Y! OS itself serves to facilitate users to bring content to Yahoo inbound and outbound as well as facilitating the social networking users to enter a new hot topic in the new Y!OS.
Y! OS has several elements:
1. Yahoo Social Platform (YSP) is a set of API (Application Programming Language) to interact with the various social components of Yahoo, like Sky, connections, updates, contacts and status
2. Yahoo Query Language (YQL) as the SQL language that provides access to user data or other Yahoo sites
3. Yahoo Application Platform (YAP): Open Social based applications allow for distribution in various Yahoo properties, including the home page of Yahoo Mail and Yahoo
In addition to adding new features to the summit, Yahoo will also continue to develop social networking features to its products. For example, Yahoo Mail will have an email filter as a filter e-mail arriving on a friend and that is only allowed the user to add the latest activities of friends to Yahoo users. All these new services will be protected by OAuth authentication standard that ensures the user has full control over the implementation of selected users to access the personal data of users.
Global warming and other environmental problems at this time to be main factor in all searches conducted. A new technology is expected not only to bring an innovation and greater efficiency, but must also have the added value that these technologies should also be friendly to the environment. This is called as green technology.
Intel Corp. as the largest seller of the processor in the world is also concern for environmental problems. The research conducted by Intel at this time to get to the processor with high performance and friendly to the environment. Currently, Intel has created a new innovation, notes that Hi-K materials that can replace SiO2 improve processor performance. In addition, the processor is now more environmentally friendly because they use free of reciprocity.
Intel Corp. Develope of a new microprocessor technology by using Hi-C materials, the material with higher value dielectric constant, and Pb-free (plumbum). Constant dielectric is as parameter in various electronic devices, particularly transistor. The higher K value means higher capacity of the transistor. Therefore, while it is turned off, the electric flow is very little, while turned on; the flow of output is very large. Therefore, by material Hi-K, processors performance will be better.
Then plumbum long used to make the processor as a mixture in the process of welding. But the reciprocity is one of heavy metals and hazardous materials that can harm people and damage the environment. Thus, the use of plumbum need can not be enforced in a way that the search for solutions to overcome problems between them. Intel Corp. research find a replacement, the pond – silver – copper weld (lead free). The advantages of these materials are the melting poin higher than plumbum (220 Celcius), power improved, and friendly environment. Therefore, this Pb-free can improve the performance of a processor and also friendly to the environment. Interactive technology will be the ultimate goal, namely to save life on earth, not shorten the life of the earth.
This family of processors based on Intel Core micro-architecture that is revolutionary Intel reduced the size of processor more than 30 percent. This processor contains 291 million transistors, but only consumes 40 percent more power sparingly. Because of Intel Dynamic Power Coordination and Intel Groundhog Sleep with Dynamic Cache Sizing, the processor can only drain resources in the vital needed area. Processor that actually promote the Intel Core Duo dual-core technology (two core strength), which is optimized to handle the application process in parallel (multitasking) faster.
Processorss is able to function without a problem when running more than one application, such as e-mail while downloading music or videos and conducting a virus scan. Chip-dual-core chips also improve the performance of various applications, such as viewing and playing high-definition video, protecting the PC and activities during the business transaction e-commerce.These are a certain level of innovation information owned by Intel Core 2 Duo, such as:
• Intel Wide Dynamic Execution – Improves performance and efficiency.
• Intel Smart Memory Access – Improves system performance by hiding memory latency, and then optimize the use of data bandwidth of the computer.
• Intel Advanced Smart Cache – Have a backup cache or a shared L2 memory to reduce power by minimizing the “traffic”, but to improve the performance of memory, allowing a core to use the entire cache when the other core non-functions.
• Intel Advanced Digital Media pulse – effectively double the speed of execution for instructions of graphics and multimedia algorithm
• Intel 64 – added to the Intel Architecture 32-bit support 64-bit, including the processor that allows you to access a larger memory
• Intel Dynamic Power Coordination – For transition-Intel SpeedStep ® Technology and idle power management phase (C-States) independently for each core can help for efficiency
• Intel Dynamic Bus Parking – Enables you to power batteries and age better by allowing the chipset to power down with the processor in low frequency
• Intel Groundhog Sleep with Dynamic Cache Sizing – Save energy with a “drain” of the data cache memory system during the period of inactivity to reduce processor voltage
