Emerging Technologies at Berkeley

Emerging Technologies at Berkeley 03/06/2004 01:57 AM
I spent today at the University of California at Berkeley Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Departments Annual Research Symposium. It was a blast, in many ways the academic equivalent of the O'Reilly Emerging Technologies Conference I went to two weeks ago. Instead of the O'Reilly fare of Robots and Quantum Dots and Programmable Matter and Emergent Democracy Worldwide, they had Smart Dust, Electric Clothes (Transistors made from woven textiles), Circuits printed on Plastic and Technology Research for Developing Regions. While some of the subjects were similar to ETech, the crowd and format were very different. While anyone who stumbled across the website in the last month could register and attend for free, the crowd consisted almost entirely of invited academics and members of the research divisions of large corporations, plus a few Europeans and a very large crowd from Finland. Instead of young hackers giving talks then joining the audience, there were graduate students who gave presentations or demos but then went back to their labs/cubes. The conference appeared to be primarily Berkeley CS and EE showing their stuff to current and potential sponsors and collaborators. Nothing wrong with that, and I was delighted with the chance to attend and see the profs and grad students present their research results. I was very impressed with the breadth of the research being done, and with the number of labs that are scattered around town, working on things as different as extremely low power self organizing sensors connected by wireless networks to very interesting design methodologies for real-time fault tolerant software. I suspect that the people who tied up Sprint's application to put up 3 cell antennas on a building in Berkeley for 2 years have no idea of all the wacky and creative things that the UC wireless researchers are up to with radio in Berkeley. I probably won't get a chance to write up my notes, but if I don't and you are interested, I highly recommend the three (1, 2, 3) talks mentioned above, all of which are archived on the Berkeley CSEE web site....

Researchers and developers at Microsoft are mixing form with function through software asthetics. Studies have shown that visual stimuli can affect mood, attention and memory. Through graphics and other visual effects, the company is tapping into emotional responses that can help the brain positively process information. Tools in development for managing and displaying digital photos are just one example of how Microsoft is fusing cognitive science and software design.

'FairPlay' Emerging As Ironic Name For
DRM System

'FairPlay' Emerging As Ironic Name For
DRM System 07/29/2004 03:26 PM

Real Networks announced< /a> a couple of days ago that they had 'figured out' Apple's FairPlay DRM technology, and that future versions of RealPlayer would include 'Harmony', a technology to allow songs purchased from Real.com to be played on the iPod.

This naturally got Apple's attention, and their lawyers arched their backs and hissed at Real today in response.

We are stunned that RealNetworks has adopted the tactics and ethics of a hacker to break into the iPod(R), and we are investigating the implications of their actions under the DMCA and other laws. We strongly caution Real and their customers that when we update our iPod software from time to time it is highly likely that Real's Harmony technology will cease to work with current and future iPods.

It seems that if Harmony truly does what Real says, and encodes files in a way that emulates FairPlay, Apple will have an awfully hard time coming out with an update that breaks Harmony but not iTunes. They would essentially have to release a new iTunes with a modified DRM scheme, then upgrade the firmware of the iPod when it plugged in.

But that means that the iPod would not work with older versions of iTunes, perhaps on other computers. It would also mean that the songs on the iPod would need to be transcoded to the new DRM, which is an awfully long process on 40GB of music, even with FireWire. The customer inconvenience and backlash would be intense, especially from a product that's always "just worked".

I think they'd take a lesser hit from just letting Real continue, given that RealPlayers' music sales system is pretty widely vilified.

Microsoft's Urge for Emerging Business

Microsoft's Urge for Emerging Business 01/03/2005 07:43 AM
You'd expect Microsoft to keep a spotlight on its big moneymakers Windows, Office and Servers -- after all, they do generate more than 80% of the company's sales. But the software giant also is busy readying its so-called emerging-business units for their close-up. For two of the four, MSN and Home and Entertainment, which represent 15% of the company's trailing 12-month sales, the future is nigh, say analysts. Microsoft is pumping substantial sums and energy into those often-neglected units, hoping the investment will drive future growth.

Tim O'Reilly's Emerging Technology
keynote 02/10/2004 01:14 PM
Here're my running notes from Ti m O'Reilly's opening keynote at the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference in San Diego.

What's on the radar now?

* Amazon Hacks, Google Hacks, eBay Hacks, Spidering Hacks, etc

* You might think you're not a Linux user, but if you use Google, you use Linux. What you use isn't (just) what's on your desk

* The Internet is the platform

* Killer apps are built on OSS, but aren't themselves OSS -- like Google and Amazon

* User contributions are critical to market dominance: Listmania in AMZN search-results (BN.com doesn't have this -- and it shows, and they have 1/10 the market of AMZN)

* MSN maps are really cool and useful, but there's no collab element, just blinking banners that appear to be saying "Go away user, go away"

PHPEverywhere: Ten Emerging 2005
Software Trends 06/22/2005 02:48 AM
On PHPEverywherethis new post from John Lim with a look at what The Manageability blog has as the Ten Emerging 2005 Software Trends.

Firefox Browser market share will continue to grow in 2005.

Eclipse market share will continue to grow.

AMD will continue to increase its performance dominance over Intel.

Javascript will regain dominance in the space of Rich Internet Applications (RIA).

Java developers will continue to abandon EJB as the standard way of building Java based server applications.

Semantic XHTML will continue to gain mind share as the best way to encode semantic information.

SOA will continue to mesmerize the masses...

Large costly multi-cpu servers will be abandoned in favor of lots of cheap low cost single CPU servers.

IT Deflation will be the continuing trend.

Scripting languages will become dominant in addressing the needs of situated software.

John also adds a few of his own to the list, including: "Linux market share will continue grow", "Multi-core CPUs will be marketed as the next big thing", and, not too surprisingly "The semantics of Semantic XHTML will continue to confuse you and me".
