Cellular communications: what it will be like tomorrow

The history of telecommunications includes several periods, the first of which began in the Stone Age when people learned to speak. It was followed by postal services, pigeon service, telegraph service, telephone and radio communications, and by the end of the 20th century there appeared another one – cellular communications. It is not necessary to describe the differences between cellular communications and other means of communications as long as the average reader has already got an idea about the space propagation of radio waves and is likely to experience their influence feeling the vibration of a mobile phone in the pocket.

ATI Catalyst 5.12/5.13 Beta Performance Issue

ATI CatalystATI Catalyst 5.11, 5.12, 5.13 Beta and Radeon Omega Drivers 2.6.87 performance comprasion. ATI updates its drivers software monthly. This tradition was set up after the first version of Catalyst software was out. But besides that, index version is chosen with the accordance to one specific rule. The first part of it symbolizes the year when the software was out and the second is the month when the driver was released. We should mention that changes in every new version of ATI graphics drivers are not very fundamental. Usually only some bugs are corrected and the performance is improved a little in some popular tests and games. But when the new generation of GPUs is released the company programmers very often need to optimize the driver code for some time. So the new drivers version sometimes can include considerable improvements, but in most cases they concern only the last generation of graphical processors.
