Smart Phone, Smarter Car

The recent CES 2015 exhibited amazing technology releases. One of them was, Nvidia X1- with power-driven dashboard in the Renovo Coupe. Automakers have been trying to introduce such useful electronics in dashboard of new models which could be operated through Smartphone.

There’s been a lot of research on connected car and connected home mechanism in recent years. Now that this trend has been initiated- integrated with GPS and navigation apps on Smartphones along with cars- it’s time that mobile processors like Tegra X1 would soon also come into integration.

The Innovation

1. Tegra X1- With Nvidia’s announcement of this processor in a recent press conference, there’s a buzz that this 256-core chipset is launched for future cars and mobile devices.

Could the security issues in Cloud diminish its usage?

The tech world is severely suffering from an “IT Game of Thrones” with “getting exterminated” being unjustifiable!

Let’s assume if security issues destroy the cloud, CIO will be killed by Cloud, Apple might destroy passwords and certainly, IT and BYOD (Bring Your Own-Device) will attempt to execute each other.

There have been enough of cyber violations and privacy intrusions which prove that security is a major concern for IT systems running upon or without the cloud. Even though many businesses are twitchy about the cloud (and its usage), some devastating facts have been successful in putting an end to the debate.

How to Troubleshoot Paper Jam Issue with Printers?

Encountering the problem of paper jam is inevitable when working with printers. When the paper printed out goes awry, it jams the printer, stopping it in between and the mess remains somewhere entrapped in the machine. If not that, it ends up forcing out an uneven mess, or its part, in the output tray. . .

Printer finds use in daily routine and paper jam is the most frequent problem. Thus, to troubleshoot paper jam issue with printers, just read on.

What Happens When an Idle CPU Goes in a Sleep Mode?

Every task or program that is performed on a system takes some time to process on the CPU. When the CPU has done all its tasks it is free and goes in a sleep mode. 

Modern processors in this free time save power by reducing the speed of clock and the voltage of CPU and sending part of the processor in a sleep mode. Some processors have halt instruction that stops an idle CPU from saving power when an interrupt occurs. An example is the x86’s HLT instruction. By the time instruction is executed, the processor may save considerable amount of power and heat if the idle task is a loop that continually gives HLT instructions.

Problem Opening Gmail on Your System

You want to look at some very important emails on your Gmail account. For that you type your user name and password in the login page and click on the ‘Sign In’ button at the bottom. However, it gets very difficult to login to your Gmail account.
