Report: cybercrime groups starting to operate like the Mafia

Cybercrime is evolving. The lone hacker who steals and resells credit card numbers is being replaced by a well-structured business model. The game is no longer simply about hacking for fame, but rather about creating a business where you have frequent customers who buy your stolen product. The latest research report from web security company Finjan gives a peek at what exactly is going on.

Monkeys Use Brain Signals To Operate Robotic Arm

Monkeys have successfully operated robotic arms to feed themselves with human-like precision, activating a mechanical device with signals from their brain. Researchers say the technique could eventually be used to help people who are paralyzed or suffer from neurological disorders like Lou Gehrig's disease. VOA's Jessica Berman reports.

Are Search Sites Over-Censoring in China?

To operate in China, search engine companies based in the United States have built products that cooperate with China's policies of Internet censorship. That much has long been recognized. But a new analysis suggests that search companies, including Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo, are independently deciding what to censor and could be censoring more information than Chinese laws demand.

Making Something Out Of Nothing

But we don't operate at the atomic level. We make things by heating, boiling or hacking at huge hunks of a given material until it's the right shape--from tree to table, say, or iron ore to ear. Gradually, though, a new field of science is being born, based on the idea that individual atoms and molecules can be manipulated to create anything--any material, any food, any substance-more efficiently and more abundantly than even nature can. Most of the objects in this microverse are measured in nanometers-billionths of a meter-so the new science is called nanotechnology.

Monkeys trained to feed themselves using a robot arm... controlled by the power of thought

Monkeys have learned to operate a bionic arm by thought alone in a breakthrough that brings hope to the paralysed.

ETH Zurich and the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory (ZRL) have today announced the establishment of a strategic partnership in nanotechnology

The two partner institutions will operate a new, common nanotech laboratory, which will be built on the ZRL campus. The new building inludes cutting-edge research infrastructure and will cost 90 mil-lion USD. The two partners have a long-standing tradition of scientific cooperation, and now make an important step to deepen this collaboration further by forming a strategic partnership in the field of nanotechnology. The collaborative project was revealed at a joint media conference in Zurich by Prof. Ralph Eichler, President of ETH Zurich, and John E. Kelly III, Senior Vice-President and Director of IBM Research. As part of this collaboration, a new building with cutting-edge research facilities will be constructed on the campus of the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory in Rüschlikon (CH), with the laying of the founda-tion stone scheduled in

E-commerce start-up Plimus raises $18m

Hundreds of Israeli start-up companies operate beneath the radar. They are successful, known, and sometimes even profitable, yet no venture capital fund or institution has invested in them. They finance themselves through personal funds and money from family, friends, or angels - the classic model for bootstrap companies. Once a certain period has elapsed, they occasionally change their usual practice and seek venture capital funding. The move made recently by Israeli e-commerce start-up Plimus Corp. is impressive by any scale. From a minimal investment by private investors, it jumped to $18 million, the amount usually raised in a third or fourth round - all of it from one investor.

Monkey controls robotic arm with brain

U.S. researchers made monkeys able to operate robotic arms to feed themselves, relying only on brain signal manipulation, according to media reports Thursday.

When will the next next-generation of game consoles arrive?

Video game console makers have tended to operate on approximately five-year cycles. That is, the manufacturers generally wait about five years between new consoles, give or take a year.
