World’s Smallest Atom - Memory Unit

In development to two-year-old research, the scientists from the University of Texas at Austin in the US also found the physics have improved upon the physics that enables dense memory storage capabilities in tiny chips. With this, the researchers claim to have made the world’s smallest memory device yet. Researchers have created the smallest memory device yet, an advance that may lead to faster, smaller, and more energy-efficient electronic chips for consumer electronics and brain-inspired computing. Smaller processors enable manufacturers to make more compact computers and phones. In the research, the scientists reduced the size of what was then the thinnest memory storage device.  Published recently in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, the research mentions the development of a memory storage device with a cross-section area of just a single square nanometer. Getting a handle on the physics that pack dense memory storage capability into these device...

Dogs in U.S. Army

A rmy Colonel David Rolfe  thought to use dogs for military purpose. Rolfe and his staff, as director of the Defense Department's Military Working Dog Program,  are responsible for the health and welfare of some of the most unheralded members of the fighting force: its estimated 2,300 working dogs. These dogs, are deployed worldwide to support the war on terror  along with their handlers from every military service, helping to safeguard military bases and activities and to detect bombs and other explosives before they inflict harm. Why Use Working Dogs? Rolfe explained, with an acute sense of smell  and five to ten times stronger than a human' working dogs can detect minute traces of explosives or drugs and alert the handlers of their presence. Many people think that the dog-handler profession is  an art form as there are so many nuances that the human must be able to interpret. Not just anyone can step in and perform the job, the missions requ...
