Luigi Malomo, ISTI-CNR Maurizio Froli, DESTEC-University of Pisa Paolo Cignoni, ISTI-CNR   Shells made of structural glass are beautiful objects from both the aesthetics and the engineering point of view. However, they pose two significant challenges. The first one is to assure adequate safety and redundancy concerning possible global collapse. Being single-layered, in a shell made of structural glass, the brittle cracking of a single pane can lead to a sudden propagation of failure, up to instability. The second one is to guarantee cheap replacing possibilities for potentially collapsed com...

New EPFL/INRIA research shows for the first time that it is possible for our mobile devices to conduct machine learning as part of a distributed network,...

Raspberry Pi Foundation, the company responsible for the famous homonymous microcomputer, has just launched an exciting new product: Pico, a microcontroller board in the mould of the well-known Arduino. The difference is that this launch is much cheaper: while an Arduino Micro (simpler version) costs US $ 18.40 (about R $ 98 in the direct quotation and without fees), the Raspberry Pi Pico was launched for the modest US $ 4 (or R $ 21). Alternative to the Raspberry Pi is so cheap and better than the original. The idea is that the maker and DIY community (“do it yourself”, in English) can h...
