• Future space robots may think for themselves
The key rests with software algorithms that help robots make command decisions on their own. Fink's group has begun testing such algorithms by using three small rovers and a camera that looks down on a simulated indoor landscape.
• How to Start a Virtual Assistant Business
Depending on your budget, you might opt to upgrade your equipment or software. The latest version of Microsoft or Mac software will ensure more efficiency, or at the very least establish a planned replacement schedule as you generate revenue.
• Security firm: AOL has hole in IM software
BOSTON - A security hole in widely used versions of AOL's instant-messaging program could let a crook grab control of a victim's computer, according to a security firm that says AOL's steps to repair the problem don't go far enough. Core Security ...
• Microsoft rolls out Live Search improvements
The software maker also added some glitz to its entertainment search results. Now, name searches for celebrities turn up photos, thumbnail-sized videos, and new features like the "Celebrity xRank," which gauges whether online buzz around a certain ...
• Wal-Mart to log guns sold, then used in crimes
He did not say how long it would take to implement all the changes, but noted that software must still be created for an internal log of guns later used in crimes. Suarez said his company may receive some pressure from gun rights groups, but added ...
