In the April issue of Computer
Embedded software shapes our world through cell phones, satellites, medical and home appliances, and automotive components—with defects causing life-threatening situations and delays creating huge costs. In this issue, we provide an overview of techniques and methods that impact embedded-software engineering. We also look at digital rights management, cloud computing costs, reliable distributed storage, and a Web-based question-answering system.
Features April 2009 PerspectivesHow Viable Is Digital Rights Management? Seong Oun Hwang Technologies that aim to protect digital content have fallen short of their mission. The computing community must find ways to make protection schemes interoperable and adopt a use model that lifts restrictions on paid-for protected content.
March 2009 Computing PracticesPuzzling Problems in Computer Engineering Behrooz Parhami University faculty have designed an engaging puzzle-based freshman seminar intended to motivate and retain computer engineering students.
News April 2009 Industry Trends Neal Leavitt Organizations are increasingly turning to complex-event processing to help make sense of the flood of data they work with.
April 2009 News Briefs Linda Dailey Paulson Topics include a new form of public-key encryption, a technology for fighting chip piracy, an extra-high-resolution display, and a computerized pen that records speech while the user is taking notes.
April 2009 Technology News Sixto Ortiz Jr. Organizations are developing proposals to secure the Internet’s routing infrastructure, which was designed many years ago.
Invisible Computing April 2009 The Digital Wallet: Opportunities and Prototypes Rajesh Krishna Balan and Narayan Ramasubbu Example digital wallet applications support secure P2P mobile cash transactions and alleviate point-of-sale confusion for consumers using multiple payment, discount, and loyalty cards.
The Known World April 2009 Top of the News David Alan Grier Step by faltering step, the front page has been vanishing from the American news industry.
The Profession April 2009 In-House Programming Is Not Passé: Automating Originality Kai A. Olsen By using IT extensively, automating whenever possible, and offering users power tools to handle complex jobs efficiently, companies can gain a strategic advantage.
