Copying the Nvidia-ARM deal, AMD purchases Xilinx for $35 billion to rival Intel in the data center chip market

AMD’s mega chip deal has caused a major competition with Intel on 5G network infrastructure and with Nvidia on SmartNICs. With the latest $35bn deal with Xilinx, AMD on Tuesday strengthened its claim to being one of the long-term winners in supplying chips for data centres, where much of the computing power required for cloud computing and machine learning is concentrated. This decision comes as the semiconductor industry starts to consolidate its resources to target the upcoming wave in artificial intelligence, data center and cloud computing platforms – the latter two of which have seen their demand go up during…

Physicists finally achieved superconductivity at room temperatures! A breakthrough in science and Tech!

A major milestone has just been achieved in the quest for superconductivity! For the first time, physicists have achieved the resistance-free flow of an electrical current at room temperature. That’s 15 degrees Celsius or 59 degrees Fahrenheit. But hold your horses yet because the superconductor has one serious limitation: it survives only under extremely high pressures, approaching those at the centre of Earth. That means it will not have any immediate practical applications. Still, physicists hope it could pave the way for the development of zero-resistance materials that can function at lower pressures. Discovering superconductivity Superconductivity were first discovered in…

4 Reasons to Have a Logo and Role of Tag Line in a Logo in Business

Are you thinking about launching or relaunching your business venture? Well, for that you must have a logo or a symbol for the audience to differentiate your business and your competitor’s ones. At least 99.99 percent of people in the world will know and name the brand each reflects, even though the major brands were not incorporated into their architecture. However, if your industry is worldwide recognition and world dominance is not sufficient for you, here are a couple more reasons: Acknowledges your name A logo is a way of representing your brand to others, distinguishes your identity from your…

Sweden joins the list of countries blocking Chinese telecom gear, bans Huawei and ZTE

Sweden has banned telecommunications equipment from Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE from building the new fifth generation, or 5G, networks citing national security concerns. Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (PTS) With the 5G spectrum auction in Sweden arriving next month, the PTS, Sweden’s main governing body decided to ban them. This is in line with a new legislation that entered into force in January 2020, following an examination by the Swedish armed forces and security service “to ensure that the use of radio equipment in these bands does not cause harm to Sweden’s security,” the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority…
