The Sentient Office Is Coming
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/27/2011259
[0]Roland Piquepaille writes "In [1]this article, the Economist
explains that "sentient computing systems are likely to be everywhere
within five years -- listening and watching, and ready to anticipate
their users' every need." "By adding sensors to today's computing and
communications technology, sentient computing seeks to take account of
a machine's environment in order to make it more responsive and useful.
Sentient computing systems are always on, ubiquitously available, and
can adapt to their users. In short, they seek to become real
help-mates." ACM TechNews also wrote [2]an analysis of sentient
computing: "Challenges to sentient computing include the seamless
integration of wireless networks, the spread of sensors throughout
products and the environment, the accurate provision of location data,
and the ability of sentient systems to merge vast volumes of widely
disseminated data and customize its delivery for users. Other problems
researchers will have to tackle include scalability, the development of
cooperative file systems, and sentient applications' ability to find
screens and network devices in close proximity to users." And of
course, there are privacy concerns... Check [3]this summary for
additional details."

Build a Multi-Output MP3 Server?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/28/0110244
[0]z80 asks: "I'm rebuilding my house and I am thinking about fitting
speakers in every room of the house and pulling some massive amount of
cables in the walls. I also want to control and send the output to each
set of speakers from the same source, and was thinking that a PC, with
4-6 soundcards, would do the trick, and there are of course a couple of
questions I have. What kind of hardware would be required to be able to
stream up to six different MP3's through six soundcards at the same
time ? Can it even be done? What kind of software can be used to do it?
Which OS? How can it be remotely controlled? With respect to the last
question, I'm thinking about mounting a couple of flat displays around
the house connected to old PC's that run some sort of connection (VNC
maybe) to the mp3 server." This is a topic Ask Slashdot tackled
[1]three years ago. Now, with applications like [2]Ardour showing off
the power of Open Source frameworks like [3]JACK, it seems like
building such a machine might not be as hard as it once was. For those
of you who have managed to build something like this, what did you do
and what hurdles did you have to navigate before things were working?
How would you set up a machine to run independent audio to 4 or more
rooms?

June 28-29. Beginning 1800 UTC Saturday and ending at 2100 UTC Sunday.
Originally started in 1933 as a test of portable amateur radio
operating, it has become an annual event that is a mix of contest,
emergency prepareness, and a public relations activity. Any geeks
interested in learning more about amateur (ham) radio, should find out
if there is a [2]local club ([3]in Canada)that will be particulating.
Most clubs in USA and Canada will have a station on the air. Visitors
welcome."

Working Hard?

Two related stories about working hard in the U.S.: U.S. workers are
granted less (and take less) [0]vacation time than workers in other
industrialized nations. And if that wasn't enough, [1]changes to the

Biometric Face Recognition Exploit
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/27/197229
clscott writes "A [0]researcher at the U. of Ottawa has developed an
exploit to which most biometric systems are probably vulnerable. He
developed an algorithm which allows a fairly high quality image of a
person to be regenerated from a face recognition template. Three
commercial face rec. algorithms were tested and in all cases the image
could masquerade to the algorithm as the target person. Here are links
to a [1]talk and a [2]paper. Unfortunately, biometric templates are
currently considered to be non-identifiable, much like a password hash.
This means that [3]legislation gets passed to require hundreds of
millions of people to have their biometrics encoded onto their
passports. This kind of vulnerability could mean that anyone who reads
these documents has access to the holders fingerprint, iris images,
etc."

libsx 2.04
http://freshmeat.net/releases/127533/
Libsx -- the Simple X library -- is a lightweight wrapper library
sitting on top of the Athena Widget set, as implemented in Xaw and
variants (Xaw95 yields much nicer results than Xaw in comination with
libsx). Libsx does not compete with GTK or Qt, but nevertheless allows
you to write a lot of small (or bigger) programs painlessly, with no or
little knowledge of X programming. With libsx, writing a simple program
that opens a window, has a few buttons, and draws some graphics (lines,
circles, bitmaps, etc.) is a matter of 5-10 lines of code, including
the drawing code. Hello World is 2 lines. More complicated programs
that respond to mouse clicks, have buttons, scrollbars, file browsers,
a color selector, etc., can be written in 25-50 lines of code.

easy to use, and can be configured to target specific applications such
as Kazaa, IMAP, and POP. Traffic can be limited by host IP, subnet, and
time of day controls can be set.
