Researchers Design Microchip Ten Times More Efficient
WirePosted writes to mention that a new highly efficient microchip has been announced by researchers from MIT and Texas Instruments. The new chip touts up to 10 times more energy efficiency than current generation chips. "One key to the new chip design, Chandrakasan says, was to build a high-efficiency DC-to-DC converter--which reduces the voltage to the lower level--right on the same chip, reducing the number of separate components. The redesigned memory and logic, along with the DC-to-DC converter, are all integrated to realize a complete system-on-a-chip solution."
well whatever the outcome, the Moore the merrier. Thats the law.

Even when I was in engineering school, the majority of graduate students were foreign. I forget where, but I once read a quote that went something like this: "American universities are the best in the world. In fact, they are so good that American high school graduates can't compete in them".

I believe that one's testicles hang away from the body because they need to be a degree or two cooler than core body temperature - would that suffice? Could be a problem for the girls, though.
