Big showdown for mini desktops - CNET
Big showdown for mini desktops - CNET: "Portability and space-saving for computers are generally traits of slim laptops and lightweight tablets, or the new generation of hybrid PCs that combine aspects of both. Several years ago, an eternity in technology time, there was another popular breed of small computers, called small form factor or media center PCs. Some connected to TVs for media streaming and PC-based DVR recording, while others were used as aesthetically appealing work or home computers for those who hated the look of boxy tower desktops.
Since then, home theater types have largely switched to streaming devices such as the Roku or Apple TV, and PC users have shifted in large numbers to laptops and tablets. A handful of small PCs, some hardly larger than a few Roku boxes stacked together, stuck around, but it wasn't what we'd call a growth area.
In late 2014 and early 2015, we've seen a small but significant resurgence in this category, with mini desktops that have been redesigned or upgraded to compete in both price and performance. Some are low-power boxes designed to work unobtrusively in the background, while others are surprisingly ambitious for computers that cost less than $500.
We've tested and reviewed three computers in this category over the past few months, each appealing to a different audience, and each with some impressive features, but also serious flaws. If you want a mini desktop, and don't want to spend more than you would on, for example, a base model iPad Air, it comes down to a choice between lots of hard-drive storage, a faster processor, or budget gaming performance."

Japan set to miss hydrogen stations target for fuel-cell cars this year | ET Auto
Japan set to miss hydrogen stations target for fuel-cell cars this year | ET Auto: "TOKYO - Japan looks set to miss its ambitious target of having around 100 hydrogen fuelling stations for fuel-cell cars in operation by March 2016, with just 76 approved after the deadline to apply for subsidies passed last month.
The government had earmarked 21.38 billion yen ($178.37 million) over the past three years to subsidise the construction and operation of fuelling stations by March 2016 as it aims to lead the world in setting up a hydrogen-based society featuring fuel-cell cars such as Toyota Motor Corp's Mirai.
But applications for the final portion - a supplementary budget of 9.59 billion yen for fiscal 2015 - resulted in just 32 stations getting the nod, government data showed this week, highlighting the difficulty of encouraging energy companies to bet on the still-unproven business.
A total of 44 had been approved previously.
So far, the only commercial fuel-cell car on the road is the Mirai, launched in December. Toyota has said it would limit production to three a day for the first year, ramping that up to about 3,000 in 2017. Honda Motor Co is also due to begin selling a fuel-cell car by next March but has not disclosed a sales target.
Hydrogen stations cost about $5 million to build, and the government's subsidy for one location is capped at around half that. Even with the generous handouts, the stations are seen making a loss for at least the first decade, industry officials say.
When contacted by Reuters, an official of Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said the government will consider whether to increase the subsidy to prod companies to set up the stations.
To take the plunge, energy companies want proof that fuel-cell cars will take off, while a dearth of fuelling stations is a put-off for consumers, resulting in a classic chicken-and-egg conundrum. Fuel-cell cars, which run on hydrogen and emit only water, are also expensive, requiring big subsidies themselves. The Mirai's suggested retail price is 7.24 million yen ($60,404).
The hurdles of setting up the necessary infrastructure are often cited by fuel-cell sceptics such as Nissan Motor Co Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn as a big reason that battery-run electric cars are a better zero-emission option. ($1 = 119.8600 yen)"
도쿄 - 일본은 76 지난 달 통과 보조금 신청 마감 후 승인으로 월 2016 년 동작 연료 전지 자동차에 대한 약 100 수소 충전소를 갖는 야심 찬 목표를 그리워 것으로 보인다.

6 IoT Startups That Make Connecting Things To The Cloud A Breeze
The ubiquitous network connectivity, affordable compute power combined with rich insights make IoT valuable for enterprises and consumers. The convergence of devices, cloud, and analytics is creating an opportunity for independent software vendors and system integrators. Developers are preparing for new programming models based on microcontrollers and low-powered devices. To realize the true potential of Internet of Things (IoT), the data generated by sensors has to be analyzed in real-time.
A few startups are transforming application development to meet the needs of the evolving IoT trend. They are building APIs, tools, and platforms that enable developers to build IoT applications that connect devices with the cloud. Here are six promising startups that are building platforms made for IoT.

Konekt
Chicago-based Konekt was in the news recently for raising $1.3 million seed fund to build a connected platform for IoT devices. It brings together a powerful union of cellular plans, cloud infrastructure, and APIs. Though most IoT developers prefer serial communications, WiFi, and Bluetooth, the protocols come with many constraints. Konekt is building upon GSM’s popularity and availability for machine-to-machine communication. The company has three offerings:

It brings together a powerful union of cellular plans, cloud infrastructure, and APIs. Though most IoT developers prefer serial communications, WiFi, and Bluetooth, the protocols come with many constraints. Konekt is building upon GSM’s popularity and availability for machine-to-machine communication. The company has three offerings:
- A global SIM card that works in 100 countries
- Device management APIs to provision, manage, and troubleshoot devices
- Cloud data broker and storage for persisting the sensor data
Konekt implements enterprise-grade security by isolating the devices and encrypting the data flowing between devices and cloud. The API only exposes its cloud and does not support other cloud infrastructures.
Temboo
Started in 2013 in New York City, Temboo makes it incredibly easy for developers to connect sensors to the cloud. It is a cloud-based middleware to connect with hundreds of services exposed by storage providers, social media networks, and content providers. Dubbed as Choreos (short for choreography), Temboo generates code snippets to consume the service APIs in popular languages such as PHP, Python, Java, JavaScript, C#, and Ruby. It also has native SDKs for traditional languages and runtimes. Developers just enter their credentials for each of the services that they want to consume, choose their favorite language, and copy the code from the browser into the editor. Temboo partnered with Arduino to include its headers, libraries, and SDK in Arduino Yun, a microcontroller development board that has built-in WiFi. Developers using other flavors, Uno, and Leonardo, can download the library and samples. As IoT development goes mainstream, Temboo has the potential to become the default middleware for cloud APIs.

TempoIQ
Formerly known as TempoDB, TempoIQ is another Chicago-based startup that simplifies storing and analyzing sensor data. In July 2014, the company evolved from a time-series database provider to an IoT backend. TempoIQ has an API layer, storage service, and an analytics backend to perform historical data analysis. Developers can start monitoring sensor data with just three lines of code. TempoIQ’s strength is in its analytical pipeline that defines a sequence of operations that are applied to a stream of data originating from sensors, resulting in a new output stream of data points. Each pipeline operation contains a mathematical function such as max and min. Sophisticated analysis can be performed by chaining pipeline operations. TempoIQ built SDKs in popular languages for sensor management, data collection, storage, analysis, and alerting.

thethings.iO
Barcelona-based thethings.iO is the latest entrant into the IoT cloud market. It proclaims to be the “Amazon Web Services (AWS) for IoT companies”. Though it seems to be yet another backend with ingestion API and real-time analytics support, the key differentiating factor is in its interoperability. thethings.iO is one the few platforms to expose both REST and CoAP APIs. Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a protocol designed to be used in low-powered devices to allow them to communicate over the Internet. It is targeted at sensors, switches, valves, and actuators that are controlled remotely via standard Internet networks. Both REST and CoAP follow the same pattern of using HTTP verbs. thethings.iO uses CoAP to perform operations like activation, reading, writing and subscribing to sensors and channels. After completing the sign-up process, developers can grab an activation code to start pushing the sensor data to the platform. The node.js SDK is available on github.
