When these two words are put together they dont just mean
a good change but they imply continuous improvement as a good change. Kaizen was
originally introduced to the West by Masaaki Imai, a Japanese author. Kaizen, dear
readers is the essence of all the available strategies that claim a systematic approach to
climbing the ladder of success.
Kaizenis a Japanese philosophy that focuses on continual improvement throughout all
aspects of life. When applied to technology, Kaizen activities can improve every function
of development process, from designing to manufacturing and from the CEO to the
assembly-line workers. Kaizen aims to eliminate waste in all systems of an organization
through improving standardized activities and processes.
One of the most notable features of kaizen is thatbig results
come from many small changes accumulated over time. The computer and IT industry is
booming not because of one gigantic milestone but because of thousands of such small
milestones being created by ordinarily extraordinary people such as you and me every
single day.
The continuous cycle of Kaizen activity has seven phases:
Identify an opportunity
Analyze the process
Develop an optimal solution
Implement the solution
Study the results
Standardize the solution
Plan for the future
The technology you see today, be it the Apple watch or the solar powered
airplanes, be it a 3-d food printer that can actually print you an edible pizza
or a 32-core CPU was not built overnight. It has taken decades if not
centuries of research and development to reach where we stand today. And the simple
term Kaizen defines this transition and the times to come.
After hours of brainstorming searching for a suitable name for the
magazine, the ACM CRCE editorial committee unanimously concluded that there
isnt a better term that could explain not just the history but also the present and
the future of science and technology with the simplicity and elegance as Kaizen
does.
We hope you enjoy your copy of Kaizen!

If making transistors smaller and smaller is continued with the same rate
as in the past years, then by the year of 2020, the width of a wire in a
computer chip will be no more than a size of a single atom.

Quantum Computing
qubit is both 0 and 1.
A quantum computer would not just be a
traditional computer built out of different parts, but
a machine that would exploit the laws of quantum
physics to perform certain information processing
tasks in a spectacularly more efficient manner. One
demonstration of this potential is that quantum
computers would break the codes that protect our
modern computing infrastructure the security of
every Internet transaction would be broken if a
quantum computer were to be built. This potential
has made quantum computing a national security
concern. Yet at the same time, quantum computers
will also revolutionize large parts of science in a
more benevolent way. Simulating large quantum
systems, something a quantum computer can
easily do, is not practically possible on a traditional
computer.
Todays classical computers work on a basic
element of bit. Data is stored and is processed in
binary format however the quantum computers
work on a basic element called Qubit. It is the
smallest possible unit of quantum data which is
technically an atom in an energy state. A qubit like
a bit can take the values 0 or 1 but also it can be
into a superimposed state where the value of the

It has been mentioned that quantum
computers will be much faster and consequently
will perform a large amount of operations in a very
short period of time. On the other side, increasing
the speed of operation will help computers to learn
faster even using the one of the simplest methods mistake bound model for learning.

4) DroidDream Killer
Heres a quickie solution
if your Android device
has been hit with the
DroidDream malware.
Essentially, the app
acts as a stop file that
instructs the DroidDream
malware to not infect your device. Developer
Chris Ravenscroft cautions that while hes been
successful in using this application so far, there is
no guarantee that this particular piece of malware
or another one will not change their behavior
and start ignoring this file. So far the app has
received glowing reviews from users, as it has
received an average five-star rating on the Android
Market. Even so, this should
be seen as a quick patch and
not a comprehensive security
solution.
1) McAfee WaveSecure
McAfees WaveSecure app
doesnt have any of the virus
scans or firewall protection
that the company is famous
for, but it does have some
important features such as
the ability to remotely lock your phone and to wipe
key data from it, the ability to back up and restore
wiped data after a device has been secured, and
the ability to track and map your device using GPS.
2)mSecure Password Manager
This app specializes in encrypting and storing
important information and
passwords, including bank

Nvidia introduced the first GPU, the GeForce
256, in 1999 and remains one of the major players
in the market. Others include AMD, Intel and ARM.
Pessimists, were told, look at a glass containing 50% air and 50%
water and see it as half empty. Optimists, in contrast, see it as half full.
Engineers, of course, understand the glass is twice as big as it needs to
be.
Hoping for a simple answer right about now? Sorry
to disappoint :-) The truth is that comparing AMD
and NVidia on this is a bit like comparing apples
and oranges. In some scenarios the AMD design
will win while in others the NVidia design will win
when it comes to performance.
