Bringing Hyper-V to “Windows 8” - Building Windows 8 In this post we talk about how we will support virtualization on the Windows "client" OS. Originally released for Windows Server where the technology has proven very popular and successful, we wanted to bring virtualization to a core set of scenarios for professionals using Windows. The two most common scenarios we focused on are for software developers working across multiple platforms and clients and servers, and IT professionals looking to manage virtualized clients and servers in a seamless manner. Whether you are a software developer, an IT administrator, or simply an enthusiast, many of you need to run multiple operating systems, usually on many different machines. In building Windows 8 we worked to enable Hyper-V, the machine virtualization technology that has been part of the last 2 releases of Windows Server, to function on the client OS as well. An introduction to Hyper-V Hyper-V requires a 64-bit system that has Second Level Address Translation (SLAT). The problem The solution

WinToFlash: Install Windows XP, Vista, 7, or Windows 8 with a USB flash drive For the last 15 years or so, Microsoft Windows has been coming on CDs or DVDs. But it’s increasingly common to find computers that don’t have disc drives. So how do you install Windows on those computers? Microsoft offers a free USB/DVD tool which you can use to easily create a bootable USB flash drive with Windows 7 or Windows 8. WinToFlash has been around for a few years, and makes the process of copying the installation files from your Windows disc to a flash drive pretty simple. While WinToFlash was originally designed for Windows XP, the developer released a major update earlier this year that added support for Windows 7. This month a new version was also released which fixed a few bugs affecting the Windows 8 Developer Preview and installation of Microsoft Office 2007 on computers that have used WinToFlash to install Windows.

Active Filters for Video Abstract: Originally, video filters were passive LC circuits surrounded by amplifiers. Smaller, more efficient designs can currently be achieved by combining the amplifier with an RC filter. Sensitivity analysis and predistortion methods developed in the 1960s have, moreover, overcome the poor performance that gave early video filters a bad reputation. High-performance op amps and specialized software for the PC enable the design of wide-bandwidth active filters, but those advantages do not address the requirements of any specific application. For video filters, the particular application and signal format add nuance to each circuit design. Antialiasing filters: These devices are placed before an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to attenuate signals above the Nyquist frequency, which is one half the sample rate of the ADC. All applications and formats require a video filter to be "phase linear," a condition specified by the parameter called group delay (delay vs. frequency). Figure 1.

How to install Windows 8 using a USB flash drive So you want to take Windows 8 for a spin on a computer that doesn’t have a disc drive? Not a problem. While Microsoft has only released a disc image of Windows 8 Developer Preview, you can use the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to install Windows 8 without a disc drive. Update: Windows 8 Consumer Preview is now available. I’ve updated some of the links in this guide to use the latest pre-release version of Windows. I touched on this recently when I discussed installing Windows 8 on a netbook, but if you’re looking for step-by-step instructions, well, here you go. Before we get started, you should note that Windows 8 is available as a preview. In other words, it’s probably not a good idea to install Windows 8 on your primary computer. In order to install Windows from a USB thumb drive, you’ll need an 8GB or larger USB flash drive. OK, onto the instructions. 1. There are 32-bit and 64-bit versions available. Note that there’s currently no installer available for computers with ARM-based processors.

Test of building smart sensors yields big energy savings (PhysOrg.com) -- To reduce energy consumption in commercial buildings, computer scientists at the University of California, San Diego have come up with a way to use real-time occupancy sensors and computer algorithms to create smart heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Based on early test results, the software- and sensor-based solution produced electrical energy savings of between 9.54 and 15.73 percent on their test deployment on one floor of a 5-floor campus building. “It’s clear that sensors and computing are key to reducing the demand for electricity in office buildings,” said Yuvraj Agarwal, a research scientist in UC San Diego’s Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) department. “Based on the test deployment, we estimate 40-50 percent in energy savings if we deployed our system across the entire CSE building. This is done because there is currently no easy and cost-effective way of knowing when individual occupants arrive in or leave their offices.
