Ogg Vorbis is a new audio filetype, I think. It is made to fight against mp3, that's my fancy again. wav file type can be played by a normal CD player but mp3 cannot. Does anyone know whether ogg vorbis have this function?

does anyone know if maya will work on ubutoo linux?

The promise of reversible computation is that one-to-one logic gates don't have a theoretical minimum amount of energy they have to expend, lowering heat generation and thus allowing more operations per second safely. The problem with one-to-one logic gates is that they quickly fill memory. What I was wondering is if reversible computers could be feasible if information that needed to be erased were 'transported' by a series of gates to a certain part of the computer. All heat from erasing memory would be generated in one place that could be designed for efficient heat exhaust and wouldn't introduce a ceiling on the highest safe operations per second. What do you thin…

Just out of curiousity, how much faster than your average desktop computer is an IBM Mainframe?

1) In the second attempt towards Dekker's algorithm, is starvation possible? If there are two processes and one processor and both processes want to enter the critical section, show how one of the processes could continually enter the critical section while the other is kept out. 2) In Peterson's Algorithm, if both processes want to enter the critical section, what keeps starvation from occuring?

Hi, we are looking for best solution to configure CFP MSA compatible PHY with MDIO interface. The best would be to have some USB to MDIO adapter with LabView support.

What is the difference between BCNF & 3NF Suggest me to read " Theory of computation, Automata Theory" Book

This thread has been merged with the topic opened by the OP in mathematics. Before considering the imminent demise of RSA encryption there is a mathematical question to answer. Merged thread here http://www.scienceforums.net/topic/78958-does-this-hold-true-for-all-prime-products-rsa-isn-the-encryption/#entry861328

So I was curious how a computer knows when you click on save in a window in one spot on the screen that it is the same function when the window is on a different spot on the screen.It knows it is in two completely different places but how does it know this? does anybody have any good material they could reference me too?

I need help with the following true or false questions: 1.The Intersection of two context-free languages is recursive. 2.For an arbitrary regular language L, the set of all strings in L that have even length forms a language that is not recursive. 3. If L is accepted by a PDA then L is accepted by a PDA that has no compatible transitions. For clarification purposes, recursive means a that a turing machine can decide the language. Recursive enumerable means that a turing machine can recognize the language. PDA = push down automaton. Here's what i think: 1. false, since the intersection of 2 context free languages is not necessarily context free since CFLs are…

does anyone know where to get the MS office 2007 for free on the internet. My ms office just suddenly got wiped on my computer. I would greatly appreciate anyone offering me a link to the download site thank you

find the optimal sequence and minimum number of operations required for the following chain matrix multiplication using dynamic programming. A(30,40) B(40,5) C(5,15) D(15,6)

When I go to the website arin.net, and I do a Whois query in the top right-hand corner on google.com, why does it return two results? The only difference is the handle number, but everything else is the same. I've been tasked with finding out what the difference is between the two, or more appropriately, why two results are returned. Can anyone help?

Please house, I am working of Privacy preservation against shilling attack on recommenders system as a research. I am new to this area. I need help from people who are experts in this area, especially in the application development and programming.

Hi, Somebody please guide me how to develop Ethereum Smart Contract (SC) tool for dynamic analysis? If there is a link for a dynamic analysis tool kindly provide me. Otherwise give a me general idea and the steps and hints how to complete those steps. Zulfi.

My current school computers are networked with Novel Client..... and more over, I am annoyed by many Messages send by other students from Netware Utilities in Novel Menu..... Does any one know how to cancel the Message receiving using any method? or any books related to Windows Network that I can possibly use? Albert

hey guys, dunno if this should go in homework help or programming but anyway.. our physics assignment is on programming, its BASIC language, we are using a program called PICAXE to create and program a integrated circuit chip thing. im up to the stage now that ive done the programming- now is the assignment, need to talk about everything about IC and programing and this chip and this and that, everything involved in this simple programming and the chip and semi conductors and micro chips and that. Need a background information section on this kind of information -semi conductors material --> and how its used to build microchips -programming in general -p…

I know a lot about how to set up and maintain firewalls, i know their features etc but do not know a lot about how exactly they work. there are two types of firewall: Hardware and Software firewalls. Hardware: these are basic firewalls which block out any unrequested packets. Software: a software firewall is what is essential for ALL computers connected to the internet (that is assuming you do not wish to be hacked), software firewalls do the same job as a hardware firewall + more. It is this "+ more" which means that a hardware firewall (often found in servers/routers) are not really adequate for your main firewall... i tend to think of it this way: 'har…

I am not a computer science student, but I am attempting to write some code to carry out the voronoi construction for my research. The one thing I don't understand involves creating the binary tree to store the arcs along the beach front. The problem is that each internal node can be used to represent the breakpoint between two parabolas, BUT parabolas generally intersect at TWO points, not one! I don't know which point to use for the breakpoint. So I am having a difficulty resolving this situation, perhaps I am overlooking something simple. If anyone can offer some clarification on this point, I would appreciate it, thanks.

Can someone please recommend a good book on computer networking? Not about programming, but a book that describes how networking works.

Hi, my name is Juan and I'm looking for a bachelor degree in Computer Science. I'm from Peru and I want to know what is a good university with affordable prices and that accepts international ppl. Please, can you recommend me something? I'm looking for Indian universities, Thanks in advanced! Sorry for my bad english

British artificial intelligence researcher Paul Almond has a new on-line interview available, in which he says: "We had optimistic expectations about when true intelligence or sentience would be achieved in artificial devices, but I think that it is possible. Intelligent machines already exist -- ourselves. The fact that matter can naturally come together to make things like humans that think shows that the process can be replicated. Of course, people argue against this. Some people say we have some kind of “immaterial” or “supernatural” soul. I think that is an incoherent concept. Roger Penrose and John Searle both argue against artificial intelligence using compu…

I would like verified information on the amount of [harmful] radiation LCD monitors produce. If it is really varied, then I'd just like the amount of radiation production from HP w17e model [widescreen 17" i think]. Thanks!!! Your effort will be greatly appreciated.
