...potential uses of DeepStream's technology are endless. The company envisions sensors that detect wasted motor motion, power surges, electrical loss, overheating and unnecessary lighting - leading to vast improvements in efficiency, perhaps saving half a billion tons of carbon emissions in Britain alone each year. "Energy sensors are going to be a massive part of our future," says Crosier. Perhaps Eaton would like to buy some...

Lebanese officials, along with Israeli military sources and Western diplomats, say that while Syrian President Bashar Assad may be willing to help pull the Bush Administration out of the Iraqi quicksand, he hopes to exact concessions that would allow him to treat Lebanon, where the Syrian regime has vast financial interests, as his private turf.

Together, the photographs draw attention to the disheartening reality that the environment within the land preserve?...
Minsky’s perceptions may stem from his vast research into artificial intelligence, psychology, and computer science—he’s Toshiba professor of media arts and sciences and professor of electrical engineering and computer science at MIT. As his book makes clear, he’s done a lot of work with robots, and that work has led to some of the key concepts in the book...
