The Sky is the Limit

There is really no way of stopping the fast journey of technology. Even in the field of devices, like cameras, there is now a new technology that was developed by Kodak which enhance the mega-pixel. Based on the article of Technologyreview.com with the latest innovation of Kodak's to their digital cameras, they just release their new cameras with a 50 mega-pixel sensor in it. Just imagine the capability of it. Kodak really done it this time. But we may not just know, they are now starting a new research to improve their newly release product. With regards to technology, limit is really kinda obsolete thing.

The Lord Reigns


The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad

Let the distance shores rejoice

Clouds and thick darkness surround him

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne

A fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side

His lightning lights up the world

The earth sees and trembles

The mountains melt like wax before the Lord

Before the Lord of all the earth

The Heavens proclaim His righteousness

And all peoples will see His Glory


-"Let it rain"
Micheal W. Smith

State of CS Research

We all know that the technologies nowadays are among the vital aspects of our lives. In the field of education for example, in the field of IT, the technology is almost the kernel of its community. With regards to the preceding statements, the research in the said area play a great role in providing innovations to technologies, thus making our lives simpler.
On the article I found on the internet, namely the Optimization - Hybrid Methods(1) on the page of Brown University, it discuss how to manage the different methods used in different research areas to form or produce an ultimate optimization algorithms and systems. This kind of optimization can bring a much more efficient and useful things with regards to the application in the fast moving technology.
Based on article, I can tell that the trend of computer science research is going towards maximization of all its resources. It can be in hardware, software, theoretical or practical applications. The trend also somewhat bridges other fields of study and making it work as one to create a better and more efficient solution.


Various technical topics:
Artificial Intelligence
Combinatorial Optimization
Design and Analysis of Algorithms
