"Internet of things (IOT)", referring to internet network of everyday objects, is hot, especially in China. Internet unlocks the potential of billions of computers, and IOT will unlock the power hidden among trillions of objects. In 2010, the total IOT revenue in China is $30 Billion. It is expected to grow up to $100 Billion in 2015.
IOT is more than RFID, sensors and cloud computing. What would be the enabling technologies there? What opportunities can you grab? We are fortunate to have Sohail Khan, CEO of SiGe Semiconductor (RF silicon- germanium leader, M2M and smart energy RF front end provider and one of the fastest growing semiconductor companies based in North America), and Robert LeFort, CEO of Ember Corporation (Wireless mesh networking technology leader, Zigbee SOC provider, an initiator of Zigbee Standard) to talk about what is going on and what trend they see.

评论：这春晚让人怎一个恨字了得 |

春晚的节目好与坏是与个人的爱好感觉有关的,清油抄菜各有所爱嘛,在吃年夜饭的同时,春晚给大家增添热闹有何不好,喜欢的多看两眼,不喜欢的不看,去放个鞭炮,干点别的快活的事儿,犯不着 |

开展智能交通研究，避免或排除社会隐患
据世界新聞網特派記者胡明揚上海報導，霧鎖上海引发連環車禍 导致3死15傷，航班近百延誤 。
連接上海陸地與洋山港的東海大橋，22日上午近七時，因濃霧瀰漫影響視線，加上過往車輛車速過快煞車不及，導致車輛發生連環相撞事故，廿多輛車輛受損。已有三人在事故中死亡，十五名傷者被送往南匯中心醫院搶救，其中四人傷勢嚴重。東海大橋全長卅二點五公里，整座橋建在大海上，於2005年5月完工通車，走一趟一般要20分鐘左右；上海港去年能夠成為全球第一大貨櫃港，洋山港與東海大橋功不可沒。 而22日的連環大車禍也是東海大橋通車近六年來，最嚴重的交通事故。
事發原因是当時東海大橋上起了大霧，橋面能見度非常低。當最前面的車輛發生事故後，後車發現時已經來不及躲避，直接撞了上去。他說，員警趕到最開始的事故現場後，後面還有車繼續撞上來。事發後，東海大橋採取臨時封閉措施，後方車輛排起長龍達卅公里。交通拥堵中断近六个小时后，東海大橋ab線雙向才恢復通車。
通过城市智能交通的云端服务，利用传感技术、声控装置、显示设备，可以开发和实施远程智能交通指挥调节系统，掌控交互路况信息以及车辆管理信息，可以避免诸如東海大橋重大恶性交通事故的发生。现代化设施如大桥，高楼，隧道，地铁，机场等，均可以通过基于云计算，物联网的智能化交通控制，服务社会，提高效率并避免重大灾祸。

President of American Association for the advancement of Science (AAAS), which is the world''s large science organization, Alice Huang, decries disparity facing Asian American scientists. There were 1500 people in the audience during her Presidential Address. Many were policy makers, media reporters and science leaders.
Alice Huang, also 80-20 Board member for many years, said "A striking finding in recent data is that Asian Americans in fields such as science "stand now as having the lowest chance of success in rising to the management level, despite their education and notable achievement." She urges science leaders
to study the reasons for this phenomenon and "do something that narrows the disparity."
Alice is now the Chair of AAAS''s Board.
Chenming Hu, another 80-20 Board Member, will also speak out on that topic, when he''ll receive the "Life Time Achievement" award at the Asian American Engineer of the Year award event. Chenming is the Distinguished Chair professor of electrical engineering at University of California, Berkeley. He has received numerous internationally renowned awards in electrical engineering.
Respectfully,
http://www.80-20initiative.net

加油不要「加滿！」
Part 1：加油不要付冤枉錢
在美國是沒有工讀生幫你加油的，而且每一支加油槍上，都有標示DO NOT TOP OFF，意思是說，一般我們都會把加油槍，放進車子的加油孔，然後用扣環hold住，加滿的時候，扣環跳起來油槍自動會停住，這時候不要再硬加油到你車子裡。
但是在台灣一般工讀生都會繼續幫你加到整數，對吧？扣環跳起來以後，還是努力的喀啦喀啦，用點放式的方法，努力的加到整數。
以後你去加油的時候，請不要這樣做了，因為你們都在花冤枉錢！
不要這樣做的理由我現在告訴你：
加油槍的設計是這樣的，你加滿油的時候扣環會跳起來，是因為有一個感應器在油槍前端的金屬部分，包在前面橡皮套裡面，在加油的同時，加油槍回收從你油箱回吐的油氣，當hose集滿了油氣之後，扣環會跳起來停止供油，這時候你的油箱已經加滿到一個安全的程度了。而在這之後如果你繼續硬加的話，這時候的汽油並不是進到你的車子裡，而是跑回到hose裡面，你說這樣不是在花冤枉錢是什麼？
而加油站每個星期都需要drain the hose，你會嚇一跳有多少汽油從裡面跑出來，有開車或騎車的朋友，下次加油的時候，記得別讓工讀生幫你加滿，加到整數唷！
油池到加油機之間有二條看不見的管路，一條是油管──即車子加油時，「油」所走的管子；另一條是氣管──在車子加油時產生的油氣，回收進入油池的管子。
Part 2：油氣會致癌民眾莫輕忽
加油不應加滿的另一個真正原因是：
一般加油站都已經使用加裝油氣回收設備的油槍，在油槍加滿油自動跳停後，當工作人員將油槍提起、強迫加油時，造成油氣回收功能無法發揮，令人不舒服的油氣就會開始外洩，這就是我們經常在加油時所聞到的「汽油味」。
我們聞到的「汽油味」，是因為汽油揮發到空氣中，使空氣含有揮發性有機物（VOCs），通稱為「油氣」；油氣的部分成分（例如：苯）已被證實有致癌性。
記住：除了不花冤枉錢外，為了保護自身的健康和減少污染空氣，當加油站工作人員下次問你「要加多少？」時，千萬不要說「請加滿」，可以直接告訴他們「加到油槍跳停就好」！
