Dennis Ritchie, founder of Unix and C, dies at 70

Dennis Ritchie : Father of C programming language dies .

Dennis Ritchie(September 9, 1941 – October 8, 2011), an internationally renowned computer scientist who created the C programming language, has died at age 70. He was suffering from cancer and heart disease.

Ritchie is credited with creating the programming language C, one of the most widely used and influential languages today. He was also one of the creators of operating system UNIX, whose variants — most notably Linux and OS X — are also widely used today. 

Ritchie went to work at Bell Labs' Computing Sciences Research Center in 1967 and was widely known as "dmr"--his Bell Labs e-mail address. As part of an AT&T restructuring in the mid-1990s, Ritchie was transferred to Lucent Technologies, where he retired in 2007 as head of System Software Research Department.

He received a Turing Award in 1983 and the US National Medal of Technology in 1998 along with Thompson for his work on C and Unix.

Programmers will perhaps best remember Ritchie for his famous “hello, world” program, which is used in many programming textbooks, even those that don’t pertain to C, as an example of a very simple computer program  .

HOW TO CRACK CODING INTERVIEW.....!!!!

Before you start coding

• Make sure you understand the problem. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. Specifically, if any of the problem requirements seem loosely defined or otherwise unclear, ask your interviewer to make things more concrete. There is no penalty for asking for clarifications, and you don’t want to miss a key requirement or proceed on unfounded assumptions.
• Work through simple examples. This can be useful both before you begin and after you’ve finished coding. Working through simple examples before coding can give you additional clarity on the nature of the problem — it may help you notice additional cases or patterns in the problem.
• Make a plan. Be wary of jumping into code without thinking about your program’s high-level structure. You don’t have to work out every last detail (this can be difficult for more meaty problems), but you should give the matter sufficient thought. Without proper planning, you may be forced to waste your limited time reworking significant parts of your program.
• Choose a language. At Palantir, we don’t care what languages you know as long as you have a firm grasp on the fundamentals (decomposition, object-oriented design, etc.). That said, you need to be able to communicate with your interviewer, so choose something that both of you can understand. In general, it’s easier for us if you use Java or C++, but we’ll try to accommodate other languages. If all else fails, devise your own pseudo-code. Just make sure it’s precise (i.e.

Climate Change Set to Increase Ozone-Related Deaths Over Next 60 Years, Scientists Warn

A new study, which is being presented at the European Respiratory Society's Annual Congress in Amsterdam, predicts that Belgium, France, Spain and Portugal will see the biggest climate-induced increase in ozone-related deaths over the next 60 years.

The research is part of the Climate-TRAP project and its health impact assessment lead by Prof Bertil Forsberg from the Umea University in Sweden. The aim is to prepare the health sector for changing public health needs due to climate change.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), climate change that has occurred since the 1970s caused over 140,000 excess deaths annually by the year 2004. In addition to its impact on clean air, drinking water and crop production, many deadly diseases such as malaria and those which cause diarrhea are particularly sensitive to climate change.

In this new research, the scientists used emission scenarios and models to assess the health impacts of a changing climate. They took projections from two greenhouse gas emission scenarios, A2 and A1B, and two global climate models, ECHAM4 and HADLEY, to simulate how the various future ozone levels are affected by climate change.

They compared four periods: baseline period (1961-1990); the current situation (1990-2009); nearer future (2012-2050); and further future (2041-2060).

The findings revealed that since 1961, Belgium, Ireland, The Netherlands and the UK have seen the biggest impact on ozone-related deaths due to climate change. The results predicted that the biggest increase over the next 50 yrs is likely to be seen in Belgium, France, Spain and Portugal, who could expect an increase of between 10 and 14%. However, Nordic and Baltic countries are predicted to see a decrease over the same period.

Dr Hans Orru, air pollution expert from the Umea University and University of Tartu in Estonia, explains: "Ozone is a highly oxidative pollutant, linked with hospitalisations and deaths due to problems with the respiratory system. Ground-level ozone formation is due to rise as temperatures increase with climate change. The results of our study have shown the potential effects that climate change can have on ozone levels and how this change will impact upon the health of Europeans."

Professor Marc Decramer, President of the ERS, said: "Outdoor air pollution is the biggest environmental threat in Europe. If we do not act to reduce levels of ozone and other pollutants, we will see increased hospital admissions, extra medication and millions of lost working days. As part of the European Respiratory Roadmap, which was launched last month, the ERS is calling for a collaborative approach between health professionals and policy makers, to protect vulnerable populations from the damaging effects air pollutants can have."

Android Tablet for Just Rs.1500 in India

It has been almost 2 years when India’s HRD Minister who is also responsible for the “absurd IIT entrance issue” revealed that they would soon be launching the cheapest Tablet PC for Indian students at just Rs. 1,500 ($35). That “soon” is confirmed to be October 5^th.
Earlier Sakshat was supposed to be built by HCL but they couldn’t manage Tablet Parts at such a cheap price so Indian Govt. switched to some other manufacturer and this took them an extra 8-9 months to deliver what they had promised.


In a function, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said,
The computer will be launched next month. This is not just a dream, it is a reality.

The cheapest of Android Tablets available in market cost around Rs. 8,000 so if Indian Govt. is launching an Android Tab for just Rs. 1,500 it means that they would used a cheaper quality of hardware in manufacturing it. I am not really going to use it for daily purposes but I am truly excited to check it out. I want to just give it a test run and see what special it has in store for a techie.
I feel Sakshat is not a mainstream gadgets, it is developed for a purpose and that is what is most important characteristic about it. If it has a 256K RAM and can run Internet nicely, then it is much better than a Google Chromebook, that’s what I feel.
Sakshat, could prove to be a miracle for people, especially students living in areas where there is not much of a infrastructure that could accelerate “learning via technology” sort of environment.

      
I hope does good and I wish Kapil Sibal thinks very rigorously about removing flaws in current education system before introducing new things. By flaws, I mean real flaws, not what he did to engineering and medical entrance exams.
