Full-Text Audio Search
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/12/22/1940214
[0]Captain Chad writes "The latest print edition (12/16/2002) of
[1]InfoWorld has an interesting article about an audio search program
by [2]Fast-Talk Communications. (The article is not yet available on
the InfoWorld web site, but the Fast-Talk site has some good info,
including a downloadable trial version.) The product works by breaking
the audio stream into [3]phonemes, which are the 'basic units of sound
in a language.' The search is then performed for a specific sequence of
phonemes. This method is faster and far superior to traditional audio
searches which convert to text and then perform a normal text search.
The author of the Infoworld article, Jon Udell, tried a variety of
searches that were surpisingly successful. If this technology is as
good as he claims, there is a reasonable chance it will revolutionize
the way we store data. Maybe there will even be an 'Audio' tab on
Google." Here's the [4]Infoworld article.

[1]LinuxTopGun.org gives details about a series of computer network attack competitions going on tour through North America. They bring in a Linux/Apache web server, a bunch of teams bring in their laptops and attack it over a wireless network. Teams take turns onstage defending the server and then answering audience Q&A about their strategies. MCs interview competitors and explain network attacks to the audience. DJs mix and VJs flip live video with network visualization software -- animations like in the movie 'Hackers.' Judges award points for how well competitors perform, both online and onstage, and the top teams win prizes... It's like watching computer attacks as a live sport.

The Bochs Project Releases v2.0
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=237871

The wxWindows interface lets you edit all bochsrc options in a graphical form. Macintosh users will be happy to find binaries for MacOSX and MacOS9. Also we now support plugins for several platforms and cleaned up and improved the documentation. Download a copy and give it a spin! http://bochs.sourceforge.net What's changed since version 1.4.1? http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/bochs/bochs/CHANGES?rev= HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
