New software alleviates wireless traffic

Posted: 11 Apr 2013 09:35 AM PDT

The explosive popularity of wireless devices —- from WiFi laptops to Bluetooth headsets to ZigBee sensor nodes —- is increasingly clogging the airwaves, resulting in dropped calls, wasted bandwidth and botched connections.

Cost-saving measure to upgrade ethanol to butanol -- a better alternative to gasoline

Posted: 11 Apr 2013 09:35 AM PDT

Scientists have reported a discovery that could speed an emerging effort to replace ethanol in gasoline with a substantially better fuel additive called butanol, which some experts regard as "the gasoline of the future." Their report on this discovery, holds potential to reduce the costs of converting ethanol factories to production of butanol.

In order to improve a simulation designed to study the evolution of the solar system through time, numerical mathematical methods have been developed. Specifically, the methods proposed enable the simulation calculations to be done faster and more accurately.

Diamond as a building material for optical circuits

Posted: 11 Apr 2013 04:54 AM PDT

The application of light for information processing opens up a multitude of possibilities. However, to be able to adequately use photons in circuits and sensors, materials need to have particular optical and mechanical properties. Researchers have now for the first time used polycrystalline diamond to manufacture optical circuits.
