[AI] First superconducting transistor promises PC revolution
First superconducting transistor promises PC revolution The breakthrough promises to put today's gigahertz processors in the shade - if practical hurdles can be overcome by Paul Marks THE world's first superconducting transistor, a long-standing goal for applied physicists, could lead to dramatically faster microchips. Last year Andrea Caviglia and his colleagues at the University of Geneva in Switzerland grew a single crystal containing two metal oxides, strontium titanate and lanthanum aluminate, as separate segments. At the interface of these materials, the team found a layer of free electrons called an electron gas (Science, vol 317, p 1196). At 0.3 kelvin - just above absolute zero - these electrons flow without resistance and so create a superconductor. Now the same group says it can switch this superconductivity on and off by applying a voltage to the interface. The result is a superconducting version of the field effect transistor (FET) - a mainstay of digital electronics. The team can switch the superconductivity on and off by applying a voltage A conventional FET contains a sliver of a semiconducting material with a so-called source electrode at one end and a drain electrode at the other. Above this source-drain channel is an electrode called the gate, which acts like a tap: when a switch-on voltage is applied to the gate, a current flows through the semiconductor channel. That current's state - either off or on - can act as a digital 0 or 1. The speed at which a FET can switch is limited by the resistance of the channel, which creates heat. Higher speeds create more heat until eventually the device burns out. That's why a superconducting FET could run much faster. Caviglia's team made such a transistor by using the lanthanum aluminate side of its crystal as a source-drain channel and the strontium titanate layer as the gate (Nature, vol 456, p 624). With no electric field, there is zero resistance between the source and drain as the device is superconducting, says Caviglia. But with an electric field applied to the strontium titanate, the dense electron gas gets shifted away from the interface and the lanthanum aluminate stops conducting current. Caviglia said that computers using such transistors would be much faster than the gigahertz speeds currently available. David Cardwell, a superconductor specialist at the University of Cambridge, thinks the work is an important breakthrough: This is an exciting effect and has clear potential for a new generation of high-speed transistors.

[AI] Opening the Book
Opening the Book An Academic's Perspective on NFB's Settlement with Google by Paul Harpur From the Editor: Paul Harpur, who is a lawyer, associate lecturer at the Queensland University of Technology in Australia, and a PhD candidate, offered to write a short article for the Braille Monitor about the importance of the NFB/Google settlement to print-disabled academics and professional researchers. This is what he says: Open any book on research methodologies and the first step almost always involves reading leading textbooks in the field. For researchers who cannot read standard print this first step creates a substantial barrier. Some researchers simply ignore textbooks and go straight to journal articles, reports, legislation, or case law. It is possible with back referencing to adopt this research methodology, but it is far from ideal. In most situations failing to read leading textbooks means the resulting paper lacks the degree of analysis that can only be provided by leading scholars in the field. Arguably the settlement the NFB reached with Google late last year will significantly improve the ability of print-disabled researchers to access textbooks. Googlebooks have scanned over a million books into digital form and created access online. For books that are out of copyright, users are able to click on a button and download the entire book in PDF. For books still subject to copyright protection, Googlebook will provide more limited access. The Googlebook search engine will identify the pages in most textbooks where search terms appear and can provide a table of contents with most textbooks. Until recently this great resource has been a closed book for print-disabled users who use screen readers such as JAWS or Window- Eyes. The settlement the NFB reached with Google should open all these Googlebook services to print-disabled users. If implemented, the NFB/Google settlement will arguably provide print- disabled researchers substantial assistance in performing high-quality research. Currently a print-disabled researcher can identify titles of likely textbooks on Googlebook. Because the contents page and page numbers generally don't appear in an accessible format, there is no way to identify what part of the book is potentially useful. Without a table of contents a researcher is unable to determine if the title means the book has useful chapters. For example, the title of a book on universal design may indicate that it is relevant, but the chapter headings may indicate that the book adopts an extremely legalistic approach when the researcher is after a practical guide to implementing universal design. The ability of the researcher to read the table of contents will increase his or her ability to find relevant chapters. The identification of relevant page numbers in textbooks has the potential of substantially reducing the time print-disabled students spend scanning library books. Generally researchers can now identify only that a particular chapter has information on a point. If the researcher is after an obscure point, the information may be found on a few pages. Currently researchers need to scan an entire chapter and scroll through it to find the relevant pages. The NFB settlement with Google should alter this procedure and enable researchers to identify relevant pages with greater ease. Rather than scanning entire books, print-disabled researchers will be able to identify what pages they think could be relevant and scan only those. This will save both scanning and reading time. Print-disabled researchers associated with an educational institution in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and many other countries have a number of the textbooks provided to them on disc in electronic files. While this is fantastic, often these textbooks in alternate format do not enable the student to identify which page they are reading. This becomes a substantial problem if they need to cite or quote the textbook. The Harvard Bluebook, the American Psychological Association Citation Guide, and most other referencing guides require authors to pinpoint references. For sighted researchers this entails simply looking to the top or bottom of the page. For people using an electronic version, pinpointing citations can involve serious complications. If for example the researcher knows the quote comes from a chapter of thirty pages but does not know precisely what page, he or she must ask a sighted person to assist in checking a paper copy of the textbook. When Googlebook is fully accessible, a researcher with a print disability should be able simply to search Googlebook for the title and part of the phrase. The results should enable researchers to identify quickly and independently the page on which the quote appears.
[AI] What happens when silicon can shrink no more?
Silicon has become synonymous with microelectronics, but now any number of pretenders are waiting to take its place, says Joerg Heber by Joerg Heber IN 1965, a year before the first pocket calculator was invented, a young physicist from Silicon Valley, Gordon Moore, made a daring prediction. He claimed that the number of components squeezed onto a single silicon chip would double about every two years. And double, and double and continue to double. If he had been right, the best silicon chips today would contain an unbelievable 100 million single components. The true figure is more like 2 billion: Moore had underestimated how fast the shrinking trend would take off. Since the mid-1970s, though, his law has been a bankable certainty, influencing economic, social and scientific developments in ways that are hard to overstate. Google, genome sequencing, multiplayer video games, the search for the God particle: all rely on silicon's seemingly limitless ability to deliver more computing speed and capacity - for an ever-diminishing price. Moore's law means that the cellphone or iPod in your pocket today has more byte-crunching power than the mainframes on the Apollo spacecraft, at the planning stage when the prediction was made. Had aviation followed a similar trajectory, a flight from New York to Paris in 2005 would have cost a cent and lasted less than a second, Intel - the chip giant Moore co-founded in 1968 - calculated. Can the trend go on? Reports of the imminent death of Moore's law have been around almost as long as the law itself, and have always proved exaggerated. But now there is concrete cause for concern. The smallest features on today's state-of-the-art chips are just a few nanometres across. At the current rate of shrinking, they will reach the size of a few silicon atoms by about 2020. At this kind of scale, the properties that make silicon the microelectronic material of choice will fail. We must then either abandon silicon and find an alternative, or accept that the ever-increasing computing power we have come to depend on has reached its upper limit - until the unforeseeable time when more exotic computing schemes, such as quantum computing, become commercially viable. And so, even as the last drops of computing power are squeezed out of silicon, the race is on to find its successor. Bit by bit, a startling picture is emerging. Not only might natural processes hold the key to the computer's further evolution, but the ideal nanoelectronic material might also have been under our noses all along. It could well be nature's own favoured building block - carbon. Silicon squeeze It is easy to forget that no natural law says chips equal silicon. The element wasn't even the first-choice microelectronic material. It is relatively difficult to obtain in the very pure form needed, and was initially passed over in favour of its neighbour in the periodic table, germanium. In the end, though, silicon's reliability, performance and abundance - the basic material is freely available in sand from most beaches - won out. Germanium and silicon are neither insulators that refuse to conduct electricity at all, nor conductors that let electrons flow all too freely. They are semiconductors: reluctant to conduct in their natural state, but requiring just a nudge, in the form of a small voltage applied to them, to be persuaded. That sweat-free swapping between conducting and non-conducting states makes semiconductors the ideal materials for transistors, the basic on-off switches that make up electronic logic circuits. The first transistors were rather crude and bulky devices, with large wire contacts pressed against an underlying slab of germanium. Today, lasers are used to etch them in their billions onto wafers of ultra-pure silicon just a few micrometres thick. Over the past 20 years, Robert Chau has seen efforts to squeeze this compact construct get ever more challenging. He leads research into advanced transistor designs at Intel, which supplies about 80 per cent of the world's silicon processors. Until the 1990s, Moore's law was continued by relatively simple scaling, he says. Now his researchers are having to change the materials: almost every part of the transistor that was originally silicon is being replaced by something else. Take the two contacts through which electrons flow into and out of the transistor, the source and the drain. Traditionally, miniaturising these was a question of finding lasers with smaller and smaller wavelengths to etch out ever tinier features on the chip. In 2003, Chau and his Intel colleagues started to use an alloy of silicon and germanium for the contacts. The separation of atoms in the alloy is larger than in pure silicon, and the atomic bonds in the channel become slightly stretched to span the extra space. Electrons can nip more speedily through this strained silicon, allowing more information to be processed by a smaller number of

But such reception will lead them to panic and impact more on their disability. I'm sorry but in my view, no organization is doing any favor to people with disabilities - they are all equally paid well for their services by respective organizations and all of them are either received good grant from Government and in the form of public donations.

[AI] Biochemist introduces technologies for blind students
Cary Supalo, a blind biochemist has introduced a group of students and teachers to the tools he is developing to help visually impaired students succeed in chemistry. Supalo, who graduated from Pennsylvania State University in 1999 and is currently a member of the National Federation of the Blind, is determined to foster a more hands-on experience for blind students in the chemistry lab. Supalo introduced a program called JAWS (Job Access with Speech), designed to convert computer text into audible speech. He and his colleagues managed to make JAWS compatible with the various lab probes created by Vernier Technologies. More than 125 probes are now able to convert text to speech. Supalo discussed the Submersible Audible Light Sensor, or SALS. This device consists of a submersible sensor attached to a control box, which contains a speaker. The SALS allows blind students to recognize when a combination of chemicals yields a new result. Since the student is unable to see the reaction, SALS produces a certain pitch when it is submerged in liquid. When two chemicals combine, a completely different pitch is produced due to the change in light content, indicating to the student a change has taken place in real time. Supalo demonstrated the SALS to the audience, and it was clear that many people were impressed with the technology. Another device showcased at the lecture was the Color Analysis Laboratory Sensor, or CALS. Like the SALS, this device consists of a probe connected to a control box. The CALS identifies the values of red, green, blue and white to tell the student the color of a specific solid or liquid. The CALS can identify certain shades of colors, such as light red (pink) or dark blue (navy). It currently has a 95 percent success rate, and Supalo is working to make it even more accurate. In addition to the SALS and CALS, Supalo also mentioned a new stopwatch for blind students he helped develop. It is the only one of its kind that allows for accuracy up to one hundredth of a second. Supalo told the audiences these devices could be used in a variety of modified experiments for blind students, such as a freezing point depression lab.

World Bank has also done a study, 'People with Disabilities in India - From Commitments to Outcome'. There is a chapter on Employment. It is available on the World Bank WebSite. CII has brought out a Manual on disability employment, which we have authored called Values Route to Business - The Why How of employing People with Disabilities. It is a book. CII is selling it for Rs. 500. Please give me your mail ID. Will send the information to you.

[AI] Universal remote control for persons with cerebral palsy
This is my first mail on this forum and I wanted to share about some of the assistive devices we have been developing. In particular I would like to mention one device, which is a universal remote control. However this device monitors body part movement (such as hand movement) and works without pushing any button like in a normal remote control. Currently we provide support of 4 devices at one time and we have tested it with TV and Digital Photo Frame. It can be used to operate any device which uses IR based remote control. Even light/fan can be operated using this by having a remote control based (commercially available) regulator/switch. We are in discussion with National Trust for supporting further development of this device. However we have not had any experience of working with persons with disabilities. I have a feeling that it may be possible to make this device useful in many other cases as well. I would like feedback from members of this forum about the usefulness of such device and what other facilities they would like to see in this. I can share more information if members require.

[AI] Microsoft warns of serious computer security hole
The Hindu News Update Service News Update Service Tuesday, July 7, 2009 : 1300 Hrs Sci. Tech. Microsoft warns of serious computer security hole SAN JOSE, California (AP): Microsoft Corp. has taken the rare step of warning about a serious computer security vulnerability it hasn't fixed yet. The vulnerability disclosed Monday affects Internet Explorer users whose computers run the Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 operating software. It can allow hackers to remotely take control of victims' machines. The victims don't need to do anything to get infected except visit a Web site that's been hacked. Security experts say criminals have been attacking the vulnerability for nearly a week. Thousands of sites have been hacked to serve up malicious software that exploits the vulnerability. People are drawn to these sites by clicking a link in spam e-mail. The so-called ``zero day'' vulnerability disclosed by Microsoft affects a part of its software used to play video. The problem arises from the way the software interacts with Internet Explorer, which opens a hole for hackers to tunnel into. Microsoft urged vulnerable users to disable the problematic part of its software, which can be done from Microsoft's Web site, while the company works on a ``patch'' - or software fix - for the problem. Microsoft rarely departs from its practice of issuing security updates the second Tuesday of each month. When the Redmond, Washington-based company does issue security reminders at other times, it's because the vulnerabilities are very serious. A recent example was the emergency patch Microsoft issued in October for a vulnerability that criminals exploited to infect millions of PCs with the Conficker worm. While initially feared as an all-powerful doomsday device, that network of infected machines was eventually used for mundane moneymaking schemes like sending spam and pushing fake antivirus software.

[AI] A visually-challenged student makes it to MIT
'Nothing is impossible' is his message A visually-challenged student makes it to MIT A staunch believer in hard work and perseverance, this 17-year-old with his excellent command over English might seem like any other teenage. But, for B. Srikanth, a visually-challenged student, nothing in life came easily. Not even the admission into Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with a full fee waiver. Hailing from Machilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh, this son of a farmer completed his schooling from Devnar School for Blind. When he approached an Intermediate college to pursue his plus two in sciences, he was told he couldn't do that. However, with the help of his mentors from school, he managed to enrol himself in M.P.C in Royal Junior College and finished his Intermediate with an impressive 92.5 per cent. The success in Intermediate didn't come easily. There was no Braille in Intermediate. My teacher Swarnalatha helped me a lot by recording the entire syllabus onto audio tapes, he says. I took tuition only for mathematics as it is not easy to learn this with the help of tapes. Nothing in this life is impossible, says this die-hard optimist, We are not 'disabled'; we are 'challenged'. So we have to take this as a challenge and fight back, he says. Srikanth's zeal to learn and reach for the stars was noticed by Ravi Kondapalli, an NRI, at a conference 'Ignite the genius within you,' held in Indian School of Business, Hyderabad. I had expressed my dream of studying in the U.S. to Mr.Ravi and he took up the challenge to fulfil my dream, says Srikanth. With the help of support from Valmiki Foundation, an NGO, his applications were sent to the top-notch universities in the U. S. Soon, his application was accepted by MIT which not only gave him admission but also waived the entire fee amount of over 56,000 dollars. Srikanth hopes to set his own software firm to employ skilled rural youth. The biggest hurdle for us rural youngsters is the lack of proper education, he says. Primary education is a constitutional right but we are unable to give value to that right, he adds. D.V.L.

Dear All, I was viewing this budget and copying this relevant claus for your reference. 88. With a view to providing interim relief to small and marginal taxpayers and senior citizens, I propose to increase the personal income tax exemption limit by Rs.15,000 from Rs.2.25 lakh to Rs.2.40 lakh for senior citizens. Similarly I also propose to raise the exemption limit by Rs.10,000 from Rs.1.80 lakh to Rs.1.90 lakh for women tax payers and by Rs.10,000 from Rs.1.50 lakh to Rs.1.60 lakh for all other categories of individual taxpayers. Further, I also propose to increase the deduction under section 80-DD in respect of maintenance, including medical treatment, of a dependent who is a person with severe disability to Rs.1 lakh from the present limit of Rs.75,000.

Re: [AI] A visually-challenged student makes it to MIT
Wonderful, Wonderful. Such courage, such a fighting spirit is a sine qua non a dignified life despite blindness. My heartiest applauses to him. One thing, though, I would like to know for sure. Whether the boy has some residual sight which he may use with low vision devices or otherwise. I want to know it because I have realized there is a vast difference between limits of total blindness and partial sight. the people we dub under the category of visually challenged, do have varying amounts of sight or no sight, and it makes huge difference in their capabilities to move around, work study and so on. So any information, please. All said and done, I do not want to undermine his achievement and positive signals it would send about the blind persons in general.
