Fujitsu develops new data transfer protocol that is 30 times faster than TCP
2013-01-30 21:49:48| Extremetech
There are two main data transfer protocols -- Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). If you only had to know one fact about each protocol, it's that TCP is slower because it takes time to check for errors, and UDP is faster because it doesn't check for errors as much. Obviously, as shown by both protocols, having to vigorously check for errors limits the speed of a transfer protocol, but Fujitsu has announced that it has found a way to add error-checking into a UDP-like protocol and keep the higher speed.

Researchers from the University of Oslo have used a bunch of "wonderful tricks" to produce silicon solar cells that are twenty times thinner than commercial solar cells. This breakthrough means that solar cells can be produced using 95% less silicon, reducing production costs considerably -- both increasing profits (which are almost nonexistent at the moment), and reducing the cost of solar power installations.
