Exploring the Ultimate Nanoscale for Future Electronics
The logic and memory functions of future electronic devices could shrink dramatically - to one or two nanometers (billionths of a meter) instead of the many tens of nanometers that characterize today's most advanced elements - if a way can be found to control domain walls, the ultrathin transition zones that separate regions of a material having different magnetic, electric, or other properties. more

Using Mobile Phones to Monitor Road Traffic Congestion
Drivers in the San Francisco Bay Area with GPS-enabled mobile phones can soon tap into new technology that promises to transform traffic monitoring. Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, and the Nokia Research Center are to release pilot software that turns cellular devices into mobile traffic probes providing real-time information on traffic flow and travel times. more

Using GPS Handsets to Monitor Road Traffic Problems
Nokia and the University of California (UC) Berkeley researchers have tested technology that could soon transform the way drivers navigate through congested highways and obtain information about road conditions. One hundred cars equipped with the GPS-enabled Nokia N95, and driven by students from the University of California, traveled a 10-mile stretch of highway near San Francisco to show how real-time traffic information can be collected from the GPS feed, while preserving the privacy of the devices' owners. more
