Will be that the technology is able to save the rhinos? – Exame Informática

There is a community working together to save the rhinos from extinction. In Kenya, there are armed guards to watch over the last three white rhinos north of the planet, and there is little more than a few dozens of species of Java and Sumatra. At this time, only 29 thousand of these animals live in captivity, after at the beginning of the TWENTIETH century have accounted for more than 500 thousand.

The horn of the rhinoceros, has a market value per kilo higher than that of cocaine and gold, which makes these animals a target attractive. There are technological companies, such as the Ceratotech, the Rhinoceros Horn and the Pemblent who want to create substitutes for this material in the laboratory, saving the species. The solutions pass through bioimpressão 3D with the use of keratin synthetic. The companies say that the material bioimpresso is genetically equal to the horn authentic, news to Cnet.

The strategy is to flood the market with this article produced in the laboratory, although there is some criticism. The conservatives argue that these maneuvers will increase the demand for the horn, a time that will take to the market the message that the material has the same therapeutic properties. Organized groups may also try to sell the material synthesized, making him the pass for authentic.

Researchers at the San Diego Zoo and the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildfire Research want to try something different: "create" rhinos from scratch, using stem cells. The plan contemplates the transfer of stem cells of the three white rhinos from the north in sperm and ova to make fertilizers in vitro, although the current technology still does not permit 100%.

In the sense of protecting animals in captivity, there are organizations that propose to install a system for RAPID, Real-time Anti-Poaching Intelligence Device) in the horn of the rhinoceros. This kit includes a GPS system, a camera sensor and a heart beat, that alert the defence teams if you register with some deviations. This plan seems to have been abandoned in the meantime.

96% of marketing professionals in Brazil believe that the use of … – Portal Nacional de Seguros

2016 – A study conducted by the DOT digital group – a brazilian group specialized in digital solutions for Education and Marketing – has identified that 96% of marketing professionals that operate in Brazil agree (fully or partly) that the use of technology represents a key strategy to create campaigns to conquer the consumers of the 21st century.

Despite this result, the survey, which heard 170 marketing professionals in companies of small, medium and large companies, between the months of August and September 2016 – has identified that only a quarter (25%) of the respondents know the concept of MarTech, which provides for the use of technology, associated with the analysis of large volumes of data, to preparation of marketing campaigns customized and adapted in real-time.

Among the tools and services most used by respondents for marketing are social networks (31%), automation of e-mail marketing (29%), content marketing (14%), metrics analysis, digital (13%), geolocation (7%), the use of algorithm of machine learning (3%), microtargeting (2%) and other (1%).

according To the study of the DOT digital group, 41% of the respondents admit that the marketing tools used today by your companies are insufficient to achieve the expected results.

"This study confirms our perception that, despite the use of MarTech be still timid in Brazil, the professionals of the sector are beginning to wake up to the fact that the use of advanced technologies for analyzing information and behaviors of the customers represents a path of no return to ensure the results of marketing actions", says Luiz Alberto Ferla, CEO of the DOT digital group. "This is a trend quite widespread in countries such as the United States, and that gradually begins to get the attention of companies in the brazilian market. In recent months, on the DOT, we have noticed a significant increase in the demand for and implementation of projects from MarTech, which should revert in an increase of 80% in the group revenue with this market this year," he adds.

The study of the DOT digital group shows that the main barriers in Brazil for adoption of more sophisticated tools, which bring together marketing and technology, are: lack of budget (38%), lack of knowledge about the benefits (18%) and lack of skills (9%).

As to what motivates companies to pursue new technologies in the market, 51% of respondents indicate that they are always looking for technological solutions, the 37% admit that they tend to analyze these tools when they do not reach the expected results, 6% when a superior requests, 3%, when they hear talk about a novelty, and 2% only if you have an additional budget.

On investments in solutions, the majority (40%) of the respondents points out that, in the last year (2015), went from 0% to 5% of the marketing budget for tools and/or technology services, and only 5% reached more than 50% of the funds for the use of technological solutions.

On the three main priorities in the areas of marketing and technology over the next three years are the analysis and monitoring competitive (18%), Big Data (14%) and Marketing, and customer Loyalty (12%).

"The digitization of information and the business it represents today a reality, which impacts companies of all sizes and sectors. In the case of marketing, this adaptation to this new market passes, necessarily, by the use of technologies to bring better results and differentiate themselves from competitors. In this sense, MarTech represents a path of no return," concludes the CEO of the DOT digital group.

The Altice USA, the fourth largest carrier in the U.S., announced this Wednesday, November 30, which will invest in the upgrade of the networks of the Optimum (formerly Cablevision) and Suddenlink. The aim of the French group passes by overwriting the entire network of the two operators by fiber optic high-speed.

The technology, with speed up to 10 gibabits per second, was developed in Portugal, more precisely in Aveiro in Altice Labs, old EN Innovation.

“The technology (hardware) used in the “deployment” of the fiber in the U.S., as well as the network management applications, quality of service and alarms have been developed and produced by Altice Labs in Portugal”, said the Business official source from PT Portugal.

the aim of The Altice is to take this technology developed in Portugal, to 4.6 million homes of customers spread across 20 states in north american during the next five years. The French group has not disclosed the amounts of investment.

According to the us press this is the largest plan in the development of fiber submitted by an operator in the market. And the plan announced Wednesday will push the rivals, including Verizon.

As the Wall Street Journal reports, with a connection of 1 gigabit per second a customer can download a movie in 30 or 40 seconds. With the new technology that the Altice will export (10 gigabits per second) can download in seconds while that with the current network of Verizon (50 megabits per second) can take up to 14 minutes.

At the end of last year, Meo announced that it would extend its current fibre network to over 3 million homes in the Portuguese territory until 2020. The values of the expansion in Portugal also were not disclosed.

Technology of NEC provides for congestion and flow of crowds … – Tech&Net

THE NEC Corporation has announced the strengthening of its technology analysis of the behavior of crowds (* 1), allowing to estimate and predict with accuracy and in real time, the degree of congestion of a crowd and the flow of people, using specialized systems of security cameras.

This newly developed technology, which belongs to the innovative portfolio of technologies of artificial intelligence "NEC the WISE" (*2), parses the images from the security cameras to create data that define with precision the degree of congestion and the flow of people in the environments (* 3) consisting of tens of thousands of people, including large facilities or venues of events. In addition, it employs the model of the crowd the owner of the NEC, to simulate the behavior of people in an environment overcrowded, simulating the way people follow or avoid collisions among themselves, to optimize the analysis and to estimate or accurately predict the various situations in real-time.

"This technology predicted the degree of congestion in areas of a major sporting event 10 minutes in advance with a margin of error of 20%. This allows the orientation of crowds in real time, helping to avoid congestion and to increase safety", said Akio Yamada, General manager, Data Science Research Laboratories, NEC Corporation.

1 – Understanding quantitative degree of congestion and the flow of people, even in an environment overcrowded by analysis of footage from security.
When you combine technology that allows you to view the conditions of a crowd from security images (the degree of congestion and the estimated number of people with a technology to extract the motion existing in these images, the NEC has developed a new technology to estimate multiple elements of the movement of a crowd, allowing a quantitative understanding of the number of people moving in each direction.

This technology allows you to accurately estimate the degree of congestion and the distribution of the flow of a crowd within the field of view of a camera, integrating and analyzing the movements of the crowd. As a result, it is possible to understand the number of people that pass by a certain area in each direction, even in an environment that is very overcrowded, where people apparently tend to overlap each other.

2 – the Forecast of the conditions of a crowd for up to ten minutes in advance based on information about the degree of congestion and the flow of people obtained from several places. NEC has developed a model of crowd to estimate and predict the flow of people in real time, by incorporating information about the density and the flow of a crowd, for later analysis.

The model of the crowd expressed the behavior of people in an environment that is overcrowded and displays the movements of each agent, such as individuals who move to avoid collisions and to individuals that travel through empty spaces, with the goal of accurately simulate the conditions of the multitude.

The week of Science and Technology opened its doors to more than 700 … – Setúbal on the Network

Cooking food in the solar oven, to produce parts in a 3D printer, driving a car in the simulator car, or commanding a robot to play the "noughts and crosses", were some of the experiences that over 700 students from secondary and vocational education held at the Week of Science and Technology of the Polytechnic Institute of Setúbal (IPS).

The IPS received in their laboratories, from 22 to 25 November, the students of the region and the south of the country thathave experienced the application of science and technology in the day-to-day, with the realization of experiences and exchange of ideas with students and teachers of IPS. The participants lived the experience of being engineers and scientists for a day, knowing better what do professionals from these areas, that you can find on the labour market, as well as what you can learn and develop at the Institute.

Take Science and Technology to more young people, in different formats, "is a bet very strong IPS to increase the scientific culture and to attract students to these areas", being that the Week of Science and Technology "has received over the past editions about 10,000 students" said President of the IPS, Prof. Dr. Pedro Dominguinhos. For 2017, in addition to the creativity of the experiences and interaction with teachers and students of IPS, "the challenge is to bring companies to the Week of Science and Technology through some of the activities" to promote direct contact of the students with professionals and the reality of work in different scientific and technological areas.

The initiative is recognized also by the professors of secondary education, such as the Prof. João Santos, Sebastião da Gama Secondary School, that three years ago participates "because it is an excellent opportunity to get to know the students that it is an institution of higher education, and we believe that they have excellent labs, good teachers, and if students want to pursue their studies here have an open door".

The new Courses-Technical Higher Professional (CTeSP) of the IPS, a bet for the Polytechnic to attract more young people to the areas of engineering and technology, motivated also the presence of more vocational schools and training centres in the initiative. As pointed out in the Prof. Dora Silva, a teacher of the Professional School of Montijo, "here students can get an idea of what is possible to do the following, much in the practical part, and here you can continue to have the theory and the practice in their studies".

Among the various areas in focus, the mechanical was the one that most caught the attention of Tiago Teixeira, a student at the Professional School of Montijo, which is said to have worshipped "the activity in the workshops because it’s something you already practice, and that I love to do and it was good to see the machines working", adding that "to study here is a good opportunity after completion of my course".

the activities in The area of robotics and computer science have also hit with the students as Agnes of Jesus, of the high School André de Gouveia of Évora, which reveals that "all that is connected with computers and robotics have to do with me [...] and what I loved was the activity of programming the robots", referring that "this experience was unforgettable, I take good memories and the School is good, the courses have output", and considers the IPS a chance to continue their studies.

During the event was also notable for the interaction of students of IPS with the participants, such as Daniel Matos and Bruno Almeida, which saw poster of your project "Help Them" be chosen, among others, of the class, to be exposed in the Week of Science and Technology. This is an APP oriented and supportive, which tells you on the map people who need support, giving also the possibility of carrying out actions of the collection of goods by the individual or on the part of entities in the area of social support, "that allows users to see how they can help and in which locations," said Daniel Matos. The receptivity of the participants against the project, "has been positive, try to understand how they can help or how to handle the interaction between the person that you want to help, and the needy person", indicates the student of Computer Engineering.

The Week of Science and Technology returns for the year, for their 15.Th edition, with the objective to continue to provide young people with unique experiences, arousing their interest for the challenges that may encounter in the world of science.

Russia and China are working together to tame the Internet – RTP

The legislation that grants the Kremlin primacy over the cyberspace – traffic exchange points, Internet domains, and fiber optic cables cross-border that constitute the architecture of the network – was announced this month.

This limitation of freedom in the network results from fear of the Russian Government that the Internet can be used to mobilize protesters and to disseminate information and ideas considered to be dangerous. The theme has been discussed with China over the last year.

The first meeting between the two countries, in April, was attended by representatives of the russians and the chinese, among whom Igor Shchyogolev, assistant of Vladimir Putin to the affairs of the Internet, and Fang Binxing, a member of the Communist Party of China (CCP) and the main responsible for the current censorship of the network in the country.

In June, the Russian President, was in Beijing to sign a joint statement on cyberspace.
"Sources of dubious" Huawei
Even during the summer, and in the wake of various measures of combating terrorism, Russia has adopted the law of Yarovaya, according to which all Internet providers in russia are obliged to store user data for six months, and the metadata for three years.

however, Russia lacks the necessary technology to be able to cope with the amount of information that the law Yarovaya implies. Not being able to rely on western technologies, the help of China is essential.

In August, the Russian manufacturer of telecommunications equipment Blat began to negotiate with the telecommunications company, chinese Huawei, with a view to buy data storage technologies.

"Huawei is essentially a arm of the chinese State, regardless of who owns it," said the lawyer Gordon Chang, the daily british The Guardian. "Its origins are dubious, the growth is too fast for a private company in China, the State representatives support their efforts and the absence of competition also means something."
The case for LinkedIn
The law of Yarovaya is not the only one to restrict the use of the Internet in Russia. Other legislation passed two years ago requires also that the data of the users in the country to be stored on Russian territory.

Although Facebook and Twitter have achieved, so far, to resist the pressure from the authorities and keep their servers in other places, without suffering the consequences, the social network, and professional LinkedIn was blocked in November. Of the 467 million members around the world, more than six million of them were russians.

This law seems to have influenced China, that on 7 November it also adopted the strategy of cyber-security with Russia and ordered that all the data were stored in the national territory, raising international concern about censorship in the country.

The collaboration between the powers of Putin and Jinping, therefore, appears to benefit both parties.

G1 – Japan plans supercomputer to resume the-art … – Globo.com

Japan plans to build the supercomputer fastest in the world, in a bet to equip the manufacturers of the country with a platform for research that can help them develop and improve autonomous cars, robotics, and medical diagnostics.

The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will invest the equivalent of US$ 173 million in the project. The project is part of a policy of the government to resume the position of Japan in the world of technology.

The country has lost the lead in many areas amid intense competition with South Korea and China, the home of the machine with the best performance in the world today.

In a move that should put Japan at the top of supercomputers, the engineers should construct a machine that can do 130 quadrilhões calculations per second — or 130 petaflops, in scientific language — in the beginning of next year, said sources involved in the project.

at This speed, the computer japanese would be the front of the chinese Sunway Taihulight, which has a capacity of 93 petaflops.

“as far as we know, there is nothing that is so fast,” said the director general of the National Institute of Industrial Sciences and Advanced Technology of Japan, and Satoshi Sekiguchi. The computer will be built in the institute.

The effort to return to the avant-garde happens in a time of growing nostalgia for the heyday of the technological prowess of Japan, which has declined since China surpassed as the second largest economy in the world.

Gearbest: a online store with good technology the prices desirable – Shifter

Who doesn’t love a good discount? The Black Friday, the american tradition of cutting severe in the prices of thousands (or even millions) of products, has been used all over the world and, apart from one fraud or another, it is possible to find good discounts without even leaving home.

Gearbest is an online store with good technology at affordable prices. There you will find the exceptional products from Xiaomi that much talked mobile phones of the OnePlus which many consider to be the best Android and many other products and accessories.

This Black Friday, the GearBest will lead one of the largest campaigns of the cut in the price since it came on the market, but only during an end-of-week (Black Friday in fact it is only during one day, November 25, but there are many brands that resolve to extend the campaigns). On the official website, you will find a series of suggestions that, at least, it is worth conferires if you have some money to spend on small gadgets or true machines of the technology.

you Can, for example, buy a Mi Notebook Air is the "price friend", the Mi 5, one of the smartphones of the trendiest during the MWC 2016. Even before the purchase, you always have the possibility to redeem already one of the coupons available discount for the invoice is reduced further. The promotions extend to both the Black Friday to Cyber Monday.

If you are reading this text and it is neither Black Friday nor Cyber Monday, it does not hurt. Buy in Gearbest is a good choice at any time of the year. The products are good, the prices also.

Japan plans supercomputer to regain prominence in the … – Jornal O Globo

the RIVER – THE Japan plans to build the supercomputer fastest in the world in an attempt to provide the manufacturers of the country with a research platform that can help them develop and improve cars without drivers, robotics and medical diagnostics.

The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will spend 19.5 billion yen ($ 173 million) in the project previously unknown, as part of a government policy to recover the prominence of Japan in the world of technology. The country has lost its leadership in many electronic fields, with competition from South Korea and China, the home of the machine with the best performance in the world today.

In a move that could push Japan to the top of the supercomputing, their engineers will be in charge of building a machine that can do 130 quadrillion calculations per second — or 130 petaflops, in scientific language — already in the next year, according to sources involved in the project said the agency "Reuters".

At that speed, the computer of Japan would be ahead of the chinese Sunway Taihulight, which is capable of 93 petaflops.

— as far as we know, there is nothing out there that is so fast — said to the "Reuters" Satoshi Sekiguchi, director-general of the National Institute of Science and Technology Advanced Industrial Japan, where will be built the computer.

The push to return to the avant-garde comes at a time of growing nostalgia for the heyday of the prowess technology of Japan, which has decreased since China surpassed as the second largest economy in the world.

prime minister Shinzo Abe asked that the companies, the bureaucrats and the political class to work more closely so that Japan can lead in robotics, batteries, renewable energy and other new growth markets.

DEEP LEARNING

In the area of supercomputing, the objective of Japan is to use calculations ultrarápidos to accelerate advances in artificial intelligence (AI), as the technology of “deep learning” that works with algorithms that mimic the neural pathways of the human brain to help computers to perform new tasks and to analyse data.

The applications of this technology include helping companies improve the vehicles without an airbag, allowing them to analyze large volumes of data traffic, visual, or help the factories to improve the automation. The new supercomputer japanese could help even analyze medical records to develop new services and applications, said Sekiguchi.

The recent achievements in this area came from Google DeepMind, with the program AlphaGo, who in march won a dispute with the south Korean Lee Seedol, world champion in the board game Go.

Already China uses the Sunway Taihulight for weather forecasting, pharmaceutical research, industrial design, among others.

The supercomputer will be available for a fee to the japanese corporations, which now outsources data processing to foreign companies, such as Google and Microsoft.

The new computer has been dubbed the ABCI, an acronym for "AI Bridging Cloud Infrastructure". The tender for the project has started and will close on 8 December.

Fujitsu Ltd, builder of the supercomputer japanese faster, until today — the Oakforest-PACS, capable of 13.6 petaflops, refused to say whether it would bid for the project. The company, however, said he is eager to be participate in the development of supercomputers.

With caveats, experts endorse the use of technology to … – Jornal O Globo

In an interview with "Le Parisien", of France, the president of Fifa, Gianni Infantini, proved to be a enthusiast of the use of technological resources to prevent errors in marking of obstructions in football. He quoted from the equipment location by GPS (Global Positioning System, in Portuguese, satellite positioning technology) and talked to limit the impediments from 16 metres from the bottom line. For experts, the change is feasible, in spite of exceptions.

Coordinator of the Reference Center and Business Intelligence of Coppe-UFRJ, Marcos Cavalcanti questions whether the system is the best option:

it makes No feeling to use technology in the existing GPS, which does not have the accuracy proven-and may have a margin of error of 2.5 meters, which for football is much. In general, the accuracy does not reach half a meter. In addition, you may have transmission problem with rains and thunderstorms.

For he, to distribute the sensors is an idea more plausible.

— The sensors have to be on the players and also the ball since it relies on when she comes out of the feet of the caster. This is doable and even cheaper today. A sensor costs US$ 5 — said Cavalcanti, who makes considerations. — The best and the more simple cameras, that already exist and are used in tennis, volleyball and american football, with the challenge request. The technology is cheap and already available.

The researcher post-doctoral specialized in innovation in the sport Maureen Flores, who maintains the blog "Sport and Innovation", on the site of the GLOBE, reminds us that technology is already used for the evaluation of performance of athletes, and launches questions.

— There will be real-time preview on the screen of the arenas? This would be perfect, since it reduces the combinations of income and corruption — he explained. — The referees modern will be qualified, and the former will continue screaming that the technology does not replace the man. The question is not to replace, but it will give transparency.

marketing Director in Latin America of the Dutch TomTom, a company specialized in GPS technology, Júlio Quintela does not believe in the difficulties to implement the geo-location.

— The concept is not in the GPS, but in geo-location. This already exists, just need to adjust to the football. There is no difficulty, the companies are ready. Just adapt and optimize, ” said Quintela. — The technology itself is not expensive, even more if we think of the scale. How many games are played every day? The unit price will be diluted.

Quintela complete:

— must Not miss companies that are not in the football and who would like to associate their brands if there was transparency and honesty. The cost would be easily absorbed, whether by sponsors or technology companies.

DYNAMIC IN the hot seat

Although considering the implementation of technology in football, something that is unavoidable, Antonio Carlos de Moraes, professor, faculty of Physical Education of the Unicamp, asks the resource.

— Have to be thought of the that can cause. In certain leagues and countries, will have the technology, but in others, not. This inevitably will happen. Are two weights and two measures, this is the X of the question. The rule in football has as a principle to be universal — recalled, citing another difficulty. — The offside is a situation which can happen a few or many times in a game. Imagine if you have a delay of 30 seconds for each decision. With eight impediments it is now four minutes.
