Beware, Vampire Energy Named "Standby"

2011-04-01T19:18:00.000-07:00

Look more carefully, how many electronic devices you use at home today. Does each is completely dead after each use. Do-do, you just turn it into standby mode and not really disconnect from the mains.

Most electronic devices at home may actually consume electricity for 24 hours, although very low. Telephone, television, home theater, computers, printers, modems, microwave, air conditioning, and other household electronic devices generally provide a standby mode so that users can more quickly turn on when needed or memory programmed recording. Devices such as digital clocks, remote controls, and the like instead must have a standby mode.

Just notice, where there are indicator lights red or green LED on the electronic equipment that was no use, that's where the electricity is still aspirated. The most visible example is left in its power adapter plugs. If In total in a year, the energy spent can be significant enough you know and can be regarded as "energy vampires."

How big is the potential loss of electricity consumption is wasted can be calculated from the amount of electronic equipment used, age of the equipment, and long use. The survey results Sempra Energy, one of the incoming energy companies on the Fortune 500, the electricity consumption of standby mode is to spend 5 percent of total household electricity consumption in the U.S.. A customer should be able to save 75-100 dollars per year if it does not let him in vain.

The survey was in the U.S.. In Indonesia, the potential loss could be the same, smaller, or even larger depending on the factors that affect. However, the fact is the same. Standby mode power spent considerable when viewed in the long term.

Well, how do not sucked up to your wallet "energy vampire" is having to bear the cost of energy is wasted. Here are four tips for minimizing the least.

First, if possible, use electric terminal which is equipped to plug off the switch on the TV, DVD player, computer, and printer simultaneously. So do not use, turn off the switch. If one is still in use, others can be removed.

Second, choose the rechargeable battery or charger for power tools that use it with the latest models and replace the old. Charger long it generally takes longer to recharge the result of less storage.

Third, do not forget to unplug the charger once the electronic equipment after use. Charger generally large enough to consume energy even though not connected to electronic devices.

Fourth, choose the electronic products that have received the Energy Star label. Products labeled as Energy Star-roduk secured by standard standby mode current consumption is lowest.

ThinkPad Up to Intel's Sandy Bridge Class

2011-02-25T14:07:00.000-08:00

branded ThinkPad Laptops Lenovo inherited from IBM to the next grade with six new models that use Intel processors Sandy Bridge. Intel processor with a second-generation Core architecture that offers speed and better graphics processing and more efficient power usage. The combination of technology developed by Lenovo also offers better security system.

The six models of the latest laptops are ThinkPad T420s, T420, T520, L420, L520, and W520. Each model will be priced at 1329, 779, 909, 719, 719, and 1329 in U.S. dollars starting next March.

Lenovo gives an example of the benchmark on which is the successor T410s T420s. Laptops are known to be very thin, now can work for 15 hours using standard batteries.

"This is an increase of 30 percent of ThinkPad models that came out last year's similar, 410. The other half came from Intel and the other half from technology developed by Lenovo," said Preston Taylor, Product Marketing Manager of Lenovo, on Tuesday (02/22/2011) as reported Newsfactor.com site.

Graphic processing capability of all models is claimed to double than previous products. This is because the graphics processing engine and integrated Intel processor computing in one chip. This will better satisfy the users to edit the video, accessing multimedia files, and video communications. Lenovo also has added new features such as security systems and features to speed up boot times in Windows 7 operating system. In addition, of course there are typical features of the ThinkPad that had been known as a tough product for professionals.

Internet Address Depletion, What Next?

2011-02-08T15:20:00.000-08:00

The issue will end IPv4 has resonated among the Internet players in recent years. Various calculations performed, and until the middle of last year, ending freepool IPv4 IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) is estimated at around mid-2011 this.

IP Address allocation in the world is controlled by the IANA, and underneath there is the division of five regions based on geography. Indonesia shelter under the Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC), based in Australia.

February 1, 2011, granted the request IANA provided APNIC and 2 blocks / 8 final. And, this time ending in the IANA IPv4 freepool. Indeed, there are 5 blocks / 8 again who saved the IANA, but blocks are immediately distributed evenly to each region: Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Africa, and Europe. Last five blocks will also be allocated to users in a manner that is much more stringent than before and the maximum is much smaller.

"This is a great history in the development of the internet in the world although it has been anticipated in advance," said Raúl Echeberría, Director of the Number Resource Organization (NRO), which is the official representative of IP address management institutions in each region. "The future of the Internet is IPv6. All relevant components must make concrete steps for immediate use IPv6," he said.

IPv4 end is indeed a blow heavy enough for most countries in the Asia Pacific region. "This region is the region with the largest population in the world and has rapid economic growth. Almost all the country's internet infrastructure is developing rapidly." argues Geoff Huston, Chief Scientist APNIC.

Obstacles faced

There are several obstacles to be faced with this IPv4 freepool endless.

First, providers and network infrastructure will be difficult to give a public IP allocation to new customers. Must be done using private IP address translation process. In general, customers can access the Internet, but there are some special applications that require direct connection to be not working. Create a new ISP will be the thing that is nearly impossible if there is not a new IPv4 allocations.

Second, on the server provider, the addition of public IP is an absolute requirement to add the server. Content server that aims to access the internet requires a lot of visitors from the public IP. The unavailability of public IP directly would inhibit the development of content industries.

Do it now

For content providers, owners of large networks, colleges, banks, and various institutions that have network and internet content, there's little time to immediately ask for the allocation of IPv4 as well as straight run IPv6.

There are many advantages if we have an IPv4 own. We can subscribe to more than one ISP, and perform load balance and simultaneously fail over to multiple upstream links them. We are also more flexible to switch ISPs because they do not need to change the IP address because the IP address that we use is permanently allocated to us, do not depend on loans from the ISP's IP.

For content providers such as banks, have their own IP is also better in terms of security. If you do a whois on an IP address, the data listed is the identity of our own institutions, rather than the ISP which we subscribe.

Institutions that wish to obtain IPv4 allocation can contact Indonesia Network Information Center (DENIC) on the web or e-mail www.idnic.net hostmaster@idnic.net

Migration to IPv6

In the future, IPv6 is the definitive answer to the problem of IPv4 end to this. IPv6 promises a much larger amount. If IPv4 only amounted to 4.3 billion IP, IPv6 totaled 4 trillion trillion trillion trillion IP. What a difference a number of very significant.

In addition, the IPv6 protocol is also promising better security because security protocols are built, unlike IPv4 is optional.

All parties associated with the use of network and IP Address are expected at this time also began to migrate to IPv6. In some time to come, IPv4 and IPv6 running concurrently (dual-stack) until one day we can fully enjoy the use of IPv6.

Block Internet, Egypt Loss 90 Million U.S. Dollars

2011-02-05T22:09:00.000-08:00

It's the internet and telephone service block for five days, Egypt may have millions of dollars of economic loss. Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) based in Paris, France estimate the value of the loss reaches 90 million U.S. dollars.

According to the OECD, telecommunications and Internet services in Egypt accounted for 3-4 percent of GDP (gross domestic product), or about 18 million U.S. dollars per day. Losses suffered by going to the greater because of technology companies that have invested in Egypt shut down its business.

"Blocking the Internet to make the country will have difficulty in the future to attract foreign companies and ensuring reliable network," wrote OECD.

In fact, the information technology sector in Egypt is estimated to worth around 1 billion U.S. dollars last year and serves customers around the world. Vodafone, for example, has a call center in Egypt that serves customers in New Zealand. Since the Internet dead, 180 Vodafone staff can not work and the company was forced to hire an additional 100 workers in New Zealand to serve customers.

"While the direct loss due to death of a very large telecommunications access, social and economic losses will be far greater," said the OECD. Egypt will have to convince foreign investors to remain invested in telecommunication sector and information technology.

Think of Google as Microsoft's Accusations Praise

2011-02-02T19:27:00.000-08:00

indeed shocking allegations that the search engine Google (search engines) Bing made by Microsoft just copied the data that Google's search results. Moreover, these allegations come a few days before Farsight Summit, a conference on the quality of search engines.

In a blog that was written on Tuesday (01/02/2011), Amit Singhal from Google's engineering team reveals the results of experiments that prove that Bing did plagiarism. Microsoft's alleged use IE8 features and Bing Toolbar to collect the data a user searches Google's search engine. Even Bing search results is called a cheap imitation because it presents an incomplete copy.

Responding to these accusations, Microsoft is not too exhausted thought. Microsoft tries to clarify the accusations Google. Harry Shum Ph.D., Corporate Vice President, Bing, Bing explained in an official blog on Wednesday (02/01/2011) today. According to him, what is done with due regard to user input Bing is it fair that also carried other search engine services. He even welcomed the activities of 'spies' by Google.

"It is their creative tactics as a competitor and we will take it as a compliment from them," he said. However, continued Shum, what is disclosed Google does not fully explain all the techniques that Microsoft uses to gather user experience to improve the quality of its search results.

According to him, Bing utilize more than 1000 variables and features in the ranking algorithms of search results. Data from a user's search results on the web only one variable only. This is part of the smart technology of data collection, of sharing an HTML document, hypertext links, clickable data, and so forth.

"Many companies on the Internet using intelligent techniques of collecting this data to improve the quality of its products every day," said Shum.

Netbook That Can Hold 14 Hours

For users with high mobility, which sailed 10-inch netbook could be more practical than a notebook. Besides mild and brief, usually needs the 'street' is just light activities such as internet access, open documents, or presentations.

However, according to his need to follow the activities from one place to another, dayatahan the batteries must be qualified. In fact, as much as possible for the netbook which we do not run out of battery power when it is important-the importance of such meetings with clients. Seeking an outlet could be when I'm at the office or at a cafe. But, when I'm on the street or in a place far from the wall socket how?

What more cud anticipate things do not get unwanted happens. Choosing products that have the longest battery life could be the best choice. If the notebook has a standard average 3-4 hours of battery life, Samsung NP-N230 netbooks can up to 13.8 hours based on BatteryMark test.

Well, put it outside activities reached 12 hours, it feels netbook is not going to run out the battery in the middle of the road. And you need not bother carry a charger and adapter cables everywhere.

Not only durable, these products also have a sleep mode feature that allows it to be directly active in three seconds. In fact, when you accidentally turn off the netbook or batteries run out, with this feature during a restart, the display will return to original form when they die. No data was lost.

About its shape, this netbook also looks stylish with a shiny black color and slim with a thickness of less than 2.5 cm. The screen was already using a LED backlight and so remain unclear despite antireflektif used under exposure to sunlight outdoors.

Its features also not inferior to other netbooks with the latest technology, Bluetooth 3.0, Samsung Recovery Solution to protect data, and 250 GB hard drive, 2 GB memory, and WiFi b / g / n. The processor used is not the most of the new Intel Atom N470 (1.83 GHz, 667 MHz, 512MB), but already quite capable backed Windows 7 Starter Edition.

From the information received Kompas.com, the product was launched mid last year it has entered into Indonesia. However, not all dealers to distribute it. To get it, you may need to prepare a cost of approximately USD 4 million or slightly higher than the netbook in general. Reputation Samsung netbook and notebook on the market was fairly new because the new Samsung Indonesia entered the market beginning in 2010.
