Is it possible to create thinking machines? Alan Turing: Between the Past and the Future of Computer Engineering
The second half of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first century were marked by the heyday of information technology, which, beyond recognition, is changing our world. They change our way of life and behavior. Maxim Levin, personal archive More recently, computer system processors were manufactured according to the 32–38 nm process, now processors made using the 10 nm (nano-meters) technology are appearing. That is, Moore’s law is exactly fulfilled, which states that the number of transistors placed on an integrated circuit chip doubles every 24 months and not far from the day when the 0 nm limit is reached, the transistors will have to be placed at the atomic level. Already in full swing work is underway to create quantum computers and bioinformatics is developing. And by 2029, Continue reading
Computer for video editing 2019
A computer for video editing is not much different from a good gaming one, only the most top-end models are equipped with specialized NVIDIA Quadro graphics cards. The computer requirements for working with video depend on which files you are going to process and how.
One of the most powerful computers was created to handle the shark model from the movie Meg: The Monster of the Depths. A system with 2500 Xeon Scalable processors reportedly contained 100,000 cores. On the other hand, you can glue a short video clip even on the weakest computer.
Why do I need a powerful computer for video editing? Continue reading
Computer for the photographer
The average photo taken on a camera with a resolution of 20 MP matrix weighs up to hundreds of MB. You can work with a file up to 100 MB even on a weak computer. Modern components easily cope even with high-resolution photographs. But professional cameras usually have a matrix from 20 to 50, although humanity has not yet clearly reached the upper limit. To work comfortably with high-resolution images, you need a computer with some features. The size of professional images depends on the type of encoding and image format, but in any case, the size of such files is clearly larger.
What should a computer be able to do for a photographer?
To understand which computer you need, you need to identify the tasks that you have to work with. At least Continue reading
