SMART DEVICE TO STORE YOUR PASSWORDS

Passwords are so difficult to manage, and nowadays everything needs a  passwords. you dozens of passwords,they all have to be dissimilar, you have to keep changing them frequently , and all have to keep changing them frequently ,and you cannot even write them down ! if this problem occurs with you , then myIDkey is sure to catch your attention.
     myIDkey is a voice activated , fingerprint-authenticated USB drive that stores passwords,e-mails , IDs ,numbers and such personal information and displays it on it's built-in-screen. it is handy and secure tool, which will be launched this year and is likely to cost around US$ 120.


FEATURES :

it includes voice search , secure 16 GB storage, a cloud-based password management platform, auto deletion of information on multiple wrong accesses , atmel microcontroller with high-performance ARM cortex-M3 322-bit RISC core operating at up to 96 MHz.

MOBILE FOR DEAF & DUMB...

There is a great news for the dumb and hearing-impaired people, with scientist testing a new mobile device which , they claim can transmit american sign language (ASL) over cellular networks. developed by the engineers That the Washington USA. 
mobile (ASL) uses motion detection technology to identify sign language and transmit video images over cell networks in the US. the tool can be integrated into any high end mobile phone with a video camera on the same side as the screen.according to the resources further research is currently done to optimise compressed video signal for sign language , with a view to increasing the quality of the images around the face and hands to reduce the data rate to 30 kilobytes per second. to minimize the amount of battery power , the mobile ASL phones use motion sensors to determine whether the sign language is being used.

OPEN SOURCES FOR CLOUD COMPUTING

The elastic and flexible nature of the cloud has been extensively used by by the open source software framework that supports data-intensive distributed applications. open source software (OSS) is computer software with its source code made available and licensed with an open source in which the copyright holder provides the rights to study , change and distribute the software for free  to anyone and for any purpose.


  • CLOUDSTACK
for creating ,managing, and deploying infrastructure as a service(Iaas) clouds in service-provider environment or enterprise environment . its code base is java , with self-service user portal .it was originally developed by cloud.com, which released most of cloudstack under the GNU general public licence ,version 3(GPLv3). cloudstack 3.0.2 is the latest version . it supports the end-to-end functionality required for infrastructure as a service , which includes compute,storage, network and user management.

  • OPENSTACK

software to build public and private clouds. it has a modular architecture, which includes components such as compute,object storage, image service, identity, dashboard, networking and block-storage. originally started by Rackspace & NASA in 2010. currently intel,cisco, dell,hp, AMD, Red hat & IBM have joined the project.
  • Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus is an open source + commercial private IaaS service provider. Eucalyptus is the short form for ' elastic computing architecture for linking your programs to useful systems'.
it has compatibility with amazon web service API. it ensures the secure communication between internal process via SOAP & WS- security. linux and windows virtual machines can be run with Eucalyptus .



  • OpenNebula
it manages the virtual infrastructure to build private, public and hybrid infrastructure as service clouds. it gives storage, network, virtualisation , monitoring and security. it was is a research project in 2005 by Ignacio M llorente & ruben s montero , and was released under the apache licence.
it provides AWS EC2 & EBS APIs and the self service portal for cloud consumers. it provides a powerful CLI that resembles typical UNIX commands .  it very easy to implement third-party tool integration 

  • HADOOP (DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING)
Apache hadoop is a software framework inspired by google's mapreduce and google file system(GFS) papers. this programming model can rapidly process huge amounts og data in parallel , on large clusters of compute instances.it finda application in social networking sources as it can manage the comprehensive and undiscovered relationships .
