A close look at the development of the Windows brand of software reveals that Microsoft is dynamic. Some customers still complain about the compatibility of the Windows operating system with other computer applications but truth be told, Windows is a great brand. Recently, the corporation unveiled Windows 7, which ideally is an upgrade of Windows version 1.0. This displays the corporation’s intent to solve the compatibility aspects that most users of the former version have pointed out.

What Microsoft is doing is laudable; it is a mechanism of identifying the pitfalls and shortcomings of its applications in attempt to better its software to meet the demands of the market currently. The world is going technological, if it has not already done so. The Chief Executive Officer of the corporation, Mr. Steve Ballmer hinted that Windows is undergoing evolution. It is in doubt whether this will interfere with the release of the chain of the operating system.

The CEO intimated that the software would undergo massive changes in the future that will make its look very different from the way it does today. He emphasized that the software in the future will be very different from its current look. Currently, the software works just fine. In fact, it is the most common software and the best so far. It is very easy to use and manipulate towards the performance of different tasks. 

Currently, Microsoft is working on Windows 8.The corporation has not disclosed the features of the software yet. From the words of the CEO, we can anticipate a unique product that encompasses major improvements of the previous operating systems and that meets the current requirements of the market.

Above these, Firefox stores a great deal of information in the form of bookmarks for easy access. It even has the ability to open several pages at an instance depending on the strength of the network you are relying on.

Recently, to be precise on 9^th March 2011 Mozilla unveiled a very superb product, Mozilla Firefox 4 RC. You will remember that before this, the corporation had made it very clear that it was not going to release any Beta models of the product after Firefox (4 BETA 12). Mozilla made the product for Windows, Linux and Mac. It is available in over seventy languages, making it a unique product.

Mozilla expects users of the software, who amount to millions to update their browsers to this new product. It is free for anyone who was using the Beta version of the browser. The corporation is still testing the features of the new browser and banks on the users of the product for feedback to make it even better. It has exceptional performance, increased stability and new features altogether. It has inbuilt HTML5 capabilities. If you were using the Beta version of the browser, you can download the RC free from the Corporations website.

The RC version is not the last version we expect from the corporation. Actually, it is the beginning of a new version of Firefox. With the efforts displayed, you can expect a more stable product from the company very soon. Even critics of today’s model of the browser will covet this high quality product. The only worrying fact is that the CEO stated that he would quit office once Mozilla rolls out the ultimate product. This could cost the corporation a lot.

Mozilla Firefox 4RC is a great browser and every user attests to that. The product enshrines all that the corporation had incorporated in the other versions but over it includes other features that make the browser well suited in today’s internet world.

A Search Engine for the Body (Human Anatomy)

A scientist has developed a process of searching through a patient’s anatomy, just like the way search engines do, in order to effortlessly find organs and help in diagnosis. This method was developed in order to help doctors who have trouble navigating 3D images developed by MRI scans, which often pose problems when trying to view specific areas. This search engine created by Antonio Criminisi is a program that allows users to search an index that has been created by the MRI scan and a clear view of a distinct body part is submitted to you.

This program has the ability to signal distinct structures by recognizing patterns of light and dark within the scan itself, which was made possible by training an algorithm to distinguish features in numerous scans where impressions of body organs had been made. What this means is that within no time it is possible to provide the required results on to a screen. Users can then make comparisons between this scan and an older one in order to detect changes in that have occurred in the problem area. 

Scientists are in the process of finding ways to incorporate voice recognition, in addition to trying to find innovative medical uses for Microsoft’s kinetic Controller. The use of this device will help surgeons in consulting a patient’s scan image when performing surgery without the need to mess up their mouse or keyboard or even without the need to contaminate their rubber gloves.

If this software proves to be a user-friendly way to search then it would dramatically help to improve patient care. As medical imaging has evolved so has the amount of images that are available and this has proven to be an information overload to surgeons. The creator of this software is also working on a way to train it to detect the difference between degrees of Glioma tumor, which is a kind of brain tumor.

Code Name Oneiric Ocelot

Ubuntu has announced that version 11.10 of the popular Linux distribution is due for release in November of 2011. This latest version has been codenamed Oneiric Ocelot. The word oneiric is used to convey a dreamlike state.

The name Oneiric Ocelot was chosen in order to epitomize the innovation process, which he describes as a union of daydream and discipline. Developers are now concentrated on delivering version 11.04, which has been given the code name Natty Narwhal, and it will debut in April of 2011. This enterprising new version will introduce a completely new desktop experience centered on the Unity shell. It exemplifies the most symbolic user interface overhaul in the history of Ubuntu.

Unity is developing very well according to the latest 11.04 pre-release builds. However, there are still plenty of improvements in the course of subsequent pre-releases. It is more likely that resolving deferred Unity features will take precedence for Oneiric. There will also likely to be minor bugs and other questions to be addressed that will become apparent when users provide feedback that will be available once Natty brings Unity to an increased number of audiences.

One highlight of this latest version is the Qt-based Unity 2D environment, an alternative application of Unity, which does not need hardware-accelerated graphics. Unity 2d will be a solution to those users who do not have proper video hardware or driver support to run the traditional OpenGl-enabled Unity environment. 

The incorporation of Qt will provide more opportunities for third-party developers. Ubuntu developers are also in the process of making this latest release available to all users, with a 2D experience to supplement the OpenGL based unity for those users that have the hardware to manipulate it. The launching of Qt will give developers more opportunities to create user interfaces that are both functional and pleasing to the eye.
