iPhone continue to be among the best phones anyone can buy right now. Knowing the best iPhone model to pick could be very tricky. The brand currently has seven different models of iPhone, five launched in just over the past year and it is rumored that another model is coming. As apple would be releasing its next batch of new phones, this means some models would soon become old model.
Does this mean you should not purchase an iPhone? No. The good thing is that the old models continue to be functional. Moreover, apple has something for pretty much everybody. If you are looking to buy an iPhone now, here are the best iPhones you can buy today:
1 iPhone 12 Pro Max
The iPhone 12 pro max has features that are so irresistible. If you are a lover of big screens, then iPhone 12 pro max is your best bet since it has the largest screen with a 6.7-inch of all iPhone till date. Not only are the screens large, you also get an excellent OLED screen and a stainless-steel body. The phone has a very strong battery life and can last for more than a full day on a single charge.
iPhone 12 pro max has a very good camera and can capture photos in Apple’s ProRaw format. Some other features of the iPhone 12 pro max are A14 bionic, smart HDR 3, water resistance, night mode portraits via the new LiDAR sensor, longer 2.5x optical zoom, 5G capability, storage of up to 512gb and lots more.
2 iPhone 12
The iPhone 12 is regarded as the best apple for your money. This is because it has the features that has been limited to the Pro models only for a lesser price; an OLED display. iPhone 12 has great speed thanks to the A14 chip and the camera is great.
Other features of the iPhone 12 that makes it a good buy are its 6.1-inch screen, A14 bionic processor, 12MP (f/1.6) wide, 16MP ultrawide (f/2.4) rear cameras, up to 256gb storage, coupled with attractive new designs.
3 iPhone XR
Often referred to as the big screen for less iPhone, the iPhone XR is a go-to if you would prefer a bigger screen to the iPhone SE. iPhone XR has the A12 bionic processor and even though the newer models of iPhone have a faster processor, it still does its work.
If long lasting battery is what you want, the iPhone XR gives that since it’s only 15minutes behind the iPhone 11 Pro that has a battery life of 11hours. iPhone XR has an LCD panel not OLED screen and you get just a single rear camera but it’s still worth it when price and performance is considered.
4 iPhone SE
The iPhone SE which used to be the smallest iPhone with a screen size of 4.7 inches was unveiled in April 2020. Although a bit older since there are newer models of iPhone, SE still comes with a lot of benefits over other models.
One major reason why you should consider buying iPhone SE is because it’s the cheapest iPhone you can buy from Apple. Though it comes with same design as the iPhone 8, it has upgraded internals such as A13 Bionic chipset which is the same chipset that powers some of the latest models.
Some other features of the iPhone SE are touch ID fingerprint scanner, good camera, HD screen, and strong battery life. If you are looking to own an iPhone without breaking the bank, here’s your best bet.
Whatever model of iPhone you choose to buy, you can be sure to get value for your money. The best way to determine the iPhone you should buy is to take into consideration the features that matters most to you. Do you want long lasting batteries or it’s the camera for you? Then go for an iPhone that meets your need.

Analysis of uncertainty in measurement - Why?
Knowledge of the uncertainty is a precondition for correctly assessing the results of measurement. Whether threshold values have been exceeded or whether a product meets its specifications can only be determined if the uncertainty of the measurement is taken into consideration. The evaluation of measurements has received clear rules with EN ISO 14253- 1 "Decision rules for proving conformance or non-conformance with specifications". It is required that the uncertainty of measurement is considered when stating conformity. Therefore, measurement uncertainty is a parameter that is becoming more and more important, especially for accredited testing and calibration laboratories.
QMSys GUM Software products are comprehensive tools for analysis of the measurement uncertainty of physical measurements, chemical analyses and calibrations. Whether you are a scientist, metrologist, design engineer, production engineer, test engineer or anyone dealing with measurement accuracy, you need to know only the information that falls within your technical specialty.

ABPM vs. conventional blood pressure monitors
An ABPM blood pressure monitor provides detailed and accurate information on the hypertensive or hypotensive patient’s condition, something which conventional blood pressure (BP) monitors are incapable of. An ambulatory blood pressure monitor offers solution for long-time BP monitoring. As longer blood pressure monitoring is provided, more recordings can be taken, and real blood pressure values are reflected more precisely by repeated measurements.
Why choose a Meditech ambulatory blood pressure monitor?
Meditech offers excellent quality ambulatory blood pressure monitors manufactured in the EU . Our ambulatory BP devices are validated to both BHS (British Hypertension Society) and AAMI (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation) criteria. These independent clinical validations prove the accuracy and the reliability of our 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monito
Meditech ambulatory blood pressure monitors incorporate the unique stepwise deflation and dual-valve technology , which make a real difference!
Each Meditech 24 hr blood pressure monitor works with stepwise deflation technology. This results in shorter blood pressure measurements and higher patient comfort. In addition, unlike many manufacturers who provide 1-year warranty, a 3-year warranty is available for the ABPM-04 and ABPM-05.
Why choose an A&D Medical ABPM? The TM-2430 is a compact & lightweight ambulatory blood pressure monitor, which incorporates technology gained from over 20 years experience in the manufacturing of ambulatory BPMs. This monitor was validated in accordance with BHS protocol and its accuracy was proven to be A/A.

Step by step, the Internet of Things is coming into existence. For proof, look no further than the recent rise of smart speakers, which promise to become more and more popular as time passes. With that said, it is important to note that there can be significant differences between smart speakers, meaning that interested individuals need to make sure to choose the one that is best-suited for their particular needs and preferences.
For those looking into smart speakers, here are five recommendations that might suit them:
The voice assistant is one of the most important factors in choosing a smart speaker. Generally speaking, Amazon’s Alexa and Google’s Google Assistant are considered to be the best options that can be found out there, meaning that Apple’s Siri and Microsoft’s Cortana are considered to be behind them. There are some other voice assistants that can be found out there, but they can’t match these four when it comes to their full range of features. Regardless, the Amazon Echo is a good choice for people who want to go with Amazon’s Alexa, which is a conclusion based on a number of reasons. For instance, the current version has been refined compared to its predecessors, meaning that it is not just more affordable but also better-looking. Unfortunately, it has a problem in that its bass is low, which is not a particularly encouraging sign for a speaker. Still, so long as people aren’t too concerned about that particular point, the Amazon Echo is one of the best smart speakers that can be found on the market.
Amazon Echo Dot
Speaking of which, Amazon offers more than just the Amazon Echo, as shown by the existence of the Amazon Echo Dot. In short, the Amazon Echo Dot is exactly what its name makes it sound like, being a smaller, more compact, and thus more convenient version of its bigger counterpart. Unfortunately, this comes at the cost of the Amazon Echo Dot having what might be charitably called “tinny” sound, though said problem is mitigated to some extent because the Dot is capable of connecting to both wired and Bluetooth speakers. On top of Amazon’s Alexa, the Amazon Echo Dot boasts one other major selling point, which is that it comes at around half of the cost of its bigger counterpart.
As stated earlier, Apple’s Siri is considered to be one of the more respected names when it comes to voice assistants, but it falls behind both Amazon’s Alexa and Google’s Google Assistant. Moreover, its voice control is limited to Apple’s music services, which is on top of the fact that it comes with neither aux input nor Bluetooth streaming. With that said, the Apple HomePod has a major upside in that it is actually a pretty good speaker that can even adjust its audio based on the acoustics of its surroundings, though interested individuals should know that this kind of sound quality doesn’t come cheap.
Google Home Max
Google is similar to Amazon in that it offers a number of smart speakers featuring its particular voice assistant, thus enabling it to reach out to a wider range of customers than otherwise possible. Based on its name, it should come as no surprise to learn that the Google Home Max is the high-end model, which is why it boasts outstanding sound whether it is being used as a mono speaker, a stereo speaker, or even a component in a full-scale home audio system. Combined with the fact that Google Assistant is good enough to be placed at the top of the list alongside Amazon’s Alexa, this means that Google Home Max has no real downsides save its high price.
The Sonos Beam is an interesting example of how other manufacturers are making products suitable for use with the best-known voice assistants out there. In its case, it is intended for use with Amazon’s Alexa. However, it is a powerful-sounding albeit expensive speaker in its own right, which is particularly useful because it can be used in combination with other Sonos speakers with relative ease. Due to this, while the Sonos Beam is expensive, there are plenty of people out there who will find that it is well-worth its price for them.

The rise of mobile devices has spawned new issues in developing websites and applications (e.g., screen size). Often overlooked in the complexity of mobile development is the network connection speed of your end user. Most mobile developers live in highly connected areas – with fast 3-4G/Wi-Fi connections. How does your app perform in areas with less coverage? How about in areas of high congestion (conferences/sporting events)? What steps can you take to improve performance (or even change the UI for low network availability)? I’ll discuss tools to simulate various networking environments and development techniques to overcome these challenges.

Shimizu Corporation (President: Kazuyuki Inoue) has developed an AI-based support system for shield excavation planning in cooperation with the Nagoya Institute of Technology as one part of a next-generation tunnel construction system that uses the latest technology. The chief feature of this system is its use of reinforcement learning to come up with the optimal solution through a self-learning AI system that learns by trial and error. It draws conclusions on the numerical parameters of the plan for operating the shield machine and the plan for segment placement. Shimizu plans to verify this system to create the plans at the shield tunnel construction site for the Tonoharu No. 1 Main Rainwater Drainage Canal being built in the city of Fukuoka.
Before the actual shield construction begins, a preliminary simulation is performed to determine how to guide the shield machine along the planned linear route, which includes curved segments, and the layout of the many segments of differing shapes to determine the numerical parameters for the plan. It is especially important to pay careful attention to the method for guiding the shield machine operation along the curve radius of the curved alignment.
Up to now, the plan parameters have been calculated by using trigonometric functions in theoretical calculations based on the shape of the shield machine, the radius of the tunnel curves, and other factors. This system improves the plan parameters the system itself has set through repeated AI-based self-simulation. This system was developed by designing an AI simulation program that treats shield excavation as a game. It was developed by combining Shimizu’s expertise in shield construction with the AI programming expertise of Professor Shohei Kato of the Graduate School of Engineering Omohi College, Nagoya Institute of Technology.
In this “excavation game,” the system simulates excavation along the planned linear route it has been given, based on self-set parameters for how to guide the machine as it operates and trial parameters for segment divisions. It then scores the results by evaluating benchmarks such as the variance from the excavation trajectory along the linear tunnel route and the degree of impedance of the shield machine by segments and the ground on the tunnel sides. If the excavation error exceeds the permissible limit during operation, or if the potential for impedance of the shield machine by a segment arises, the trial operation is terminated at that point. The trial parameters are then reset and a new simulation is performed. The AI proceeds to learn on its own what parameters to choose in order to obtain the highest score as it repeats the simulations an enormous number of times. It ultimately arrives at a score that it cannot beat. The trial parameters are determined to be the optimal solution at this stage and are used in the excavation plan.
This system can also be used to produce the daily work orders for excavation during the excavation process in addition to use in the planning stage before excavation begins. The AI can be expected to reduce the number of work hours required to engineers at the job site by performing simulations to correct the plan based on the latest excavation parameters.
Shimizu is working on research and development aimed at automating shield machine excavation as one part of an initiative targeting the use of AI in shield construction. We are currently working on the development of AI models to control earth pressure and to control direction that will replicate the movements of the shield machine when operated by a skilled operator. We intend to introduce a guidance system that incorporates both of these models in building the Tonoharu No. 1 Main Rainwater Drainage Canal to verify the safety and prediction accuracy of the system.
<< For Reference >>
Image of Support System Developed for Shield Excavation Planning
Controlling the Direction of the Shield Machine on Curved Alignment
When excavating the curved segments, the shield machine performs a bending maneuver in which the ground surface being excavated is “over-excavated” and the shield machine is “bent” in the middle by setting the angle between the front and rear sections of the shield machine to prevent the tunnel sides from impeding its progress. The numerical parameters for the timing and amount of soil excavated for the overbreak and the angle of bend in the shield machine are set when creating the excavation plan.

Apple and Samsung are both mobile phone giants that have gone head to head for the past few years.
Samsung releases their new Samsung Galaxy phones each year and Apple is releasing their iPhone series every year too.
In today’s article, I am going to talk about the iPhone 6s Plus. If you can remember, the “Plus” line from Apple is usually just a bigger mobile phone with some minor improvements in the hardware.
The design of the iPhone 6s Plus is akin to that of iPhone 6 Plus (without the “s”). If you’ve seen an iPhone 6 Plus before, then you’ve pretty much guessed what the iPhone 6s Plus looks like.
The only mark difference, really, is the inclusion of a small “s” letter just below the iPhone name on the rear cover, and that is pretty much it!
It sports an all-metallic design that naturally looks and feels premium. It also has round edges to help you with gripping the mobile phone.
The display of the iPhone 6s Plus is quite good, although most people expected more. The iPhone 6s Plus has a 5.5-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1080×1920 and a pixel density of 401ppi.
As with all other iPhones out there, the iPhone 6s Plus does have a vibrant display and the images and texts pop out even more than in previous iPhones.
What I love about the iPhone 6s Plus’ display is the fact that it is coated by an Oleophobic material that prevents fingerprints from sticking to the display.
The coating is not perfect by any means but it does a decent job of preventing smears and fingerprints all over the display. Do remember, though, that you will still need to occasionally clean the display with a microfiber cloth from time to time.
One great feature of the iPhone 6s Plus is its 3D Touch technology. Depending on the amount of pressure when using the iPhone 6s Plus, it will do various things like opening up specific applications and other things.
You will have complete control on the apps that will be launched depending on the pressure you’ve applied, so it will be interesting to see how the 3D touch will pan out in the near future.
The performance of the iPhone 6s Plus is nothing short of astonishing. It comes with the new A9 processor which Apple claims as “leaps and bounds ahead of the A8 chip when it comes to performance”.
One way to gauge if a mobile phone’s performance package is good is by doing some benchmark tests. And the iPhone 6s Plus does not disappoint; whether you’re opening multiple applications at once or playing graphic-intensive games, the iPhone 6s Plus did not have any noticeable lag and hiccups at all.
The camera of iPhones always impresses me, but they usually lag behind other mobile phone companies when it comes to megapixels. Although Apple still didn’t want to include an overkill 16-megapixel sensor, the company did upgrade the iPhone 6s Plus’ camera to 12-megapixels.
Furthermore, the front camera of the iPhone 6s Plus also received an upgrade as it now has a 5-megapixel camera, up from 1.5-megapixels found in previous generation iPhones.
The iPhone 6s Plus’ camera is fast and it captures stunningly vivid images. It also now has a faster shutter speed and the iOS camera app is smooth as silk.
All in all, the iPhone 6s Plus is a very good mobile phone. Although it lags behind other competitors when it comes to hardware superiority, no one can argue that the iPhone 6s Plus is a solid phone.


For electronic devices, solder joints often are the weakest link in terms of reliability. The failure of solder joints may be caused by temperature, stress, electrical current, or chemical reactions, and may occur at level one and level two, depending on the device type and application conditions. In this course, the Part 1 will address the electromigration issue at die attach level for high power devices, and the Part 2 will address the solder joint behavior based on fundamental material properties and the failure modes will be introduced, with emphasis on lead-free solder joints.
In this workshop the detailed review of failure analysis methods and reliability testing in assembly will be discussed. Quickly finding and eliminating package defects and failures due to assembly issues is critical. Package reliability directly affects manufacturing yield, time to market, product performance, customer satisfaction and cost. Many process steps and controls are needed for a high yield and reliable assembly process. A through understanding of product and technology reliability principles and mechanisms of failure is essential. Knowledge of defects and failure mechanisms enables a high yielding successful assembly process through material choices, package design, process optimization, and thermo-mechanical considerations. Fault isolation, failure analysis, and materials analysis play a major role in the improvement of yield and reliability. Coordination of engineers from many disciplines is needed in order to achieve high yield and reliability. Each engineer needs to understand the impact of their choices and methods on the final product. This workshop will discuss, using examples, mechanical and thermal failure mechanisms in assembly and detection methods.
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) & effective corrective actions is a popular and often-used technique that helps people answer the question of why the problem occurred in the first place and how prevention can be done to prevent recurrence. It seeks to identify the origin of a problem using a specific set of steps, with associated tools, to find the primary cause of the problem, so that you will be able to determine what happened, determine why it happened and figure out what to do to reduce/prevent the likelihood that it will happen again. The Root Cause Analysis & Systematic Problem Solving Process involves 6 stages/steps and linked to Define the Problem, Collect Data, Identify Possible Causal Factors, Identify the Root Cause(s) Recommend and Implement Solutions and Verifying the effectiveness of the solutions.
The SMT Electronics Assembly Class is a practical overview of the many different processes and materials used in through-hole and surface mount technologies (SMT). It is a focused two-day long workshop, which provides attendees with the opportunity to learn and understand the processes, equipment, and materials used in today’s manufacture of electronic assemblies. Combining lecture, videos and discussion, this Electronic Assembly Basic Training workshop was designed to give a very comprehensive and complete ‘immersion’ into SMT and mixed technology PCB assembly. As it runs only two days, it is extensive (and non- superfluous) without taking people ‘out of the shop’ for an extended period of time: learn, absorb and take that knowledge back to the manufacturing floor.
Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the baseline for electronics manufacturing upon which electronic components are mounted and formed into electronic systems. PCBs are used in a variety of electronic circuits from simple one-transistor amplifiers to large super computers. A PCB serves three main functions which is; a) it provides the necessary mechanical support for the components in the circuit; b) it provides the necessary electrical interconnections, and c) it bears some form of legend which identifies the components it carries. The failure modes on the PCBs can be categorized in a hierarchical structure, in which the mechanisms and causes are site or location dependant. This one day workshop will discuss a variety of failure mechanisms that effect the functionality of PCBs. These mechanisms can be related to how PCB materials are selected, PCBs are designed, manufactured, tested and used in the field conditions. The workshop will begin with an overview of PCB manufacturing, materials and processes. The workshop then provides the guideline for selection of methodologies for identifying potential failure mechanisms based on the failure history and how a systematic root cause failure analysis of the PCB can result in prevention of future issues.
The industry is evolving very rapidly, with multiple challenges emerging at the same time on soldering. The cost, the reliability, and the reduced process temperature. Any one failed to address any of those challenges will be left behind in this fierce competitive environment. This course will bring the answer to you, with the most updated information on the new solder materials developed, and will also help you to justify the selection of solder types which fit best for your applications. The course is divided into two parts, with part 1 addressing the cost and reliability, and part 2 address the low temperature soldering.
Participants in this workshop will receive a complete overview of current high volume manufacturing, HVM, wire bonding assembly process options and metrology challenges. Miniaturization of wire bonding is critical as the number of bond pads that must be placed per unit area increases. This requires a large leap in wire manufacturing capability and improved wire bonding tools. New challenging assembly processes including direct wirebonding to Cu pads on ULK materials will be discussed. Different methods of wire bonding such as thermosonic, ultrasonic and thermocompression will be covered in this workshop. Several options for Cu wire use are presented in the workshop. Using easy to understand terminology an in-depth review of wire bonding processes in assembly manufacturing and first level interconnects are presented. Package and assembly technologies, wire bonding quality including wire pull and sheer test are discussed in detail. Wire bonding for chip on board, COB, applications, organic substrates, wire bonding problems using Au, Al or Cu wire and tape automated bonding are part of the class. Wire bonding infrastructure is so extensive that no other chip-interconnection technology can completely displace wire bonding in the foreseeable future.
The journey through troubleshooting the most common defects in SMT with an emphasis on identifying the fundamental root causes, and an entertaining overview of best practices will be discussed in this workshop. This is based upon real-world problems encountered in troubleshooting process, equipment and materials problems throughout the electronics assembly industry all over the world. Case studies will be used throughout the workshop.
Failure analysis is a vital tool in the effort to ensure reliability of electronic products and systems throughout their product lifecycle. Today, organizations involved in activities within the electronics supply chain are facing new challenges, not just from complex assembly styles, harsher lifecycle environments, and more sophisticated tools, but also from customers who are demanding a quicker turn-around. Unfortunately, root cause failure analysis is often performed incompletely, leading to a poor understanding of failure mechanisms and causes, and loss of resources and customers due to recurrence of failures. The tools and techniques applied by many test and FA labs today are geared only towards uncovering the apparent causes of failure, not necessarily the root causes. Thus, the corrective actions applied by manufacturers or end-users do not always eliminate problems. This can result in expensive, time-consuming, repeat occurrences of failures. This two day workshop will discuss a range of topics, including root cause analysis, physics-of-failure principles and failure mechanisms in electronics. Specimen preparation techniques, non-destructive and destructive analysis, and materials characterization will also be discussed. The first day of the workshop will present methodologies for identifying potential failure mechanisms in electronics based on the failure history and, systematic approaches to root cause analysis. The second day will cover failure analysis techniques geared towards various failure mechanisms, along with numerous component and PCB assembly failure analysis case studies that illustrate the techniques and analysis. Failure analysis case studies will be used to illustrate the techniques and analysis principles to arrive at the root cause(s) of field failures on printed circuit boards, active components, and assemblies.
With abundant case studies illustrating the principle and application of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Reliability (DFR) in advanced soldering technology, you will be able to apply both on your SMT design and process of soldering job and achieve high yield and high reliability very easily, and also be ready to face the new challenges emerged.
Flip chip packaging is not new but new technology requires more connections between the die and package, a tighter bump pitch and more functionally in the package. Tablets and smart phones all use flip chip packaging with thinned die and thin packages. All technology drivers bring new issues that must be addressed. These issues include new copper pillar bonding, bump stack material changes, tighter bump pitch, underfill flow and no-flow options, new under fill materials, thermal management with improved thermal interface materials (TIM), embedded passives, and die attach films. Wafer thinning processes and some stacked die package options will be reviewed. This workshop will begin with a discussion of current flip chip assembly. We will then discuss the new technology options and issues. The objective of this workshop is to provide an improved understanding of current flip chip package options and assembly flows. The newer HVM package material and design options are discussed. Wafer thinning and handling including bonding and debonding methods will be covered. Dicing and handling thin wafers and die will be covered. Newer bump materials will be discussed with their impact to flip chip or stacked die package assembly.
Managing shop floor can be a disaster for many organisations. Lack in the skill of the people, poor communication, bad tracking of the performance, lack of best practices , poor motivation and others are common thing that we see in an under performing organisation. As the world’s business climate changes, it is getting more difficult for us to remain competitive. Customers demand changes, technological changes, and competitive forces change. In other word, our environment has become very turbulent. With the poor shop floor management added , the organisation remain noncompetitive and further become unprofitable organisation. The New Shop Floor Management will address the importance of shop floor management, providing ideas, techniques, concepts and philosophy necessary to practice better shop floor management, illustrating how these are applied in different companies, encouraging participants to take significant steps towards continuous improvement that involve everybody, upgrading skills and deepening the insights for self management to maximize everybody’s’ potential .In short rather than viewing the shop floor only from the top down, this session attempts to address the organisations needs from shop floor up, presenting a new perspective of the shop floor and its’ linkage to the total organisation.

Selecting the right laptop for DJing isn’t just a matter of hardware requirements, factors such as durability, flexibility, and affordability play extremely vital roles in the process as well. That being said, this article attempts to shed light on the best laptops for DJing on the market today.
Best Laptops for DJing
Starting off our list is the highly-popular Apple MacBook Pro with its Intel Dual-Core Core i5 2.3 GHz processor, Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640, and 8 GB DDR4 RAM memory. The reason behind the MacBook Pro’s popularity when it comes to DJing is its remarkable reliability.
While not the most powerful MacBook Pro model out there, we feel that this model is more than adequate to handle any task a DJ throws at it. It’s also pretty affordable compared to other units that share the same brand. If budget isn’t a problem, any of Apple’s MacBooks will suffice.
Another reason why the MacBook Pro has always been held in such high regard is that all of its components are designed by the same company, from the operating system and software to the motherboard and all other sorts of hardware. This is truly a well-oiled piece of machinery.
As far as screen resolution, the MacBook Pro boasts a stunning native resolution of 2560×1600 at 277 pixels per inch, which is quite remarkable compared to a lot of other mainstream laptops. Battery-wise, this laptop features a 58.2 watt-hour battery that can keep it running for 10 hours.
The laptop also features a backlit keyboard, which will be of great help when you’re performing in dark settings. The laptop also features two Thunderbolt USB-C ports, a charging DisplayPort, and USB 3.1 Gen 2 that allows for up to 10 gigabytes/second. Highly recommended!
New Apple MacBook Pro (16-Inch, 16GB RAM, 1TB Storage, 2.3GHz Intel Core i9) – Space Gray
- Ninth-generation 8-Core Intel Core i9 Processor
- Stunning 16-inch Retina Display with True Tone technology

If you’d like to invest in a laptop that can operate smoothly while handling some of the heaviest CPU loads, the Dell XPS 15 9570 is the right choice. However, this isn’t a budget laptop to any means, which doesn’t come as a surprise considering its highly-remarkable specs.
This laptop houses the 8th Generation Intel Core i7-8750H processor with a CPU speed of 4.1 GHz. Quite impressive, huh? It also features 32 GB worth of DDR4 RAM memory. This means that you’ll be able to run any DJ-related software and experience no delay whatsoever.
As far as the graphics, the XPS 15 9570 is equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti with 4GB GDDR5, which is a top-of-the-line GPU that will allow you to watch movies in 4k resolution. You can even use this laptop to fulfill your drawing and gaming passions.
If you compare the price tag of the Dell XPS 15 with the MacBook Pro, you’ll find that they’re not that far apart, so which one should you choose? Well, in terms of specs, it’s quite obvious which device is the winner here. The Dell XPS 15 takes this one by a very long shot.
It’s also worth noting that the Dell XPS 15 grants you way more ports than the MacBook Pro, so you’ll find it a lot easier to connect your equipment, which is very important for a DJ, as it allows you to carry much less gear than you would’ve carried if you lacked connecting ports.
Dell XPS 15 7590, 15.6″ 4K UHD Touch, 9th Gen Intel Core i7-6 Core 9750H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR5, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB SSD

The Envy series from HP has been around for a considerable amount of time that spans around a decade and to this day, it remains one of the best laptop lines to grace the market. This laptop isn’t an overly expensive unit, so the vast majority of beginner DJs should be able to afford it.
What’s so great about this laptop is that even though it’s not as expensive as the Dell XPS 15 or the MacBook Pro, it still boasts excellent specs that allow it to handle all things DJing with grace and beauty. With this laptop, you don’t even have to think about spec comparisons anymore.
Now we’re not saying that this computer boasts the highest specs on our list, but unless you’re going to use it to mix music professionally or work with a load of effects, you don’t really require anything more than what the HP Envy X360 provides, so definitely take it into consideration.
So we’ve been rambling about this laptop’s specs for three paragraphs now without mentioning what they are exactly, the HP Envy X360 features an AMD Ryzen 5 processor, an AMD Radeon Vega 8 GPU, 8 GB worth of RAM memory, and 258 SSD.
Another thing that sets this brilliant unit apart from a lot of its peers is the fact that it’s one of the lightest and easiest computers to carry around, which is something that a DJ should hold in high regard. It’s also worth noting that the screen is touch-sensitive, so you can use it as a tablet.

On some hardware, the system the clock speed is somewhat different from what the hardware claims. This will cause the kernel’s idea of the current time to drift from the actual time, since the actual amount of time that elapses each kernel tick is different from what the kernel thinks (which is typically 10,000 microseconds by default).
If this drift is large enough, ntpd will unable to keep the system time synchronized with the servers to which it is talking. What you’ll typically see in this situation is that
ntpdc -p will show no servers with an asterisk next to the name (indicating it’s not synchronizing to any of them) and you’ll see the offsets creeping higher and higher in magnitude.
The fix for this is to teach the kernel what the actual time that elapses during each tick really is. This is easily done on Ubuntu and Debian systems by installing the adjtimex package.
When installed, the package will normally run the adjtimexconfig command. This will compare the system clock to the hardware real-time clock over a period of seventy seconds or so and determine how much faster or slower the system clock is. It will then run the adjtimex command with the
-t option to set the “tick” parameter, which is the number of microseconds the clock should advance with each kernel tick. It will also update the
/etc/default/adjtimex file with this information so that it’s preserved across reboots.
As I said above, the default tick value is 10,000, but on one of my systems that runs fast, for example, 9851 is a more accurate value. You can re-run the
adjtimexconfig command yourself at any time in order to set or update this.
Once you’ve done this, you should then see that once
ntpd has been running for a while, it selects a server, logging a message such as
ntpd: synchronized to 22.214.171.124, stratum 2 in
ntpdc -p should display an asterisk next to that same server.
Note that if you upgrade your BIOS you should certainly run
adjtimexconfig immediately afterwards, since this may change the speed that hardware reports, especially if it was previously reported incorrectly. The same goes if you change your hardware.


OData is a Web protocol for querying and updating data that provides a uniform way to unlock your data and free it from silos that exist in applications today. OData is literally SQL for the Web. It allows creation of data services on the Web and consuming from them using REST principles and URL conventions. OData represents an important step in the direction towards a more open, programmable web, and is especially important in our rapidly growing cloud-computing marketplace.
You can count big names among early supporters of this open standard, as Microsoft Open Technologies and SAP, proving how important is the data interoperability is today's Internet.
And next to these big names, the small but willing Tirasa is there at Apache Olingo, to turn the OData 4.0 standard into real Open Source implementation; at The Apache Software Foundation, of course, where else?

Understanding of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN): A Review – Scopus Q4
The application of deep learning technology has increased rapidly in recent years. Technologies in deep learning increasingly emulate natural human abilities, such as knowledge learning, problem-solving, and decision-making. In general, deep learning can carry out self-training without repetitive programming by humans. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are deep learning algorithms commonly used in wide applications. CNN is often used for image classification, segmentation, object detection, video processing, natural language processing, and speech recognition. CNN has four layers: convolution layer, pooling layer, fully connected layer, and non-linear layer. The convolutional layer uses kernel filters to calculate the convolution of the input image by extracting the fundamental features. The pooling layer combines two successive convolutional layers. The third layer is the fully connected layer, commonly called the convolutional output layer. The activation function defines the output of a neural network, such as ‘yes’ or ‘no’. The most common and popular CNN activation functions are Sigmoid, Tanh, ReLU, Leaky ReLU, Noisy ReLU, and Parametric Linear Units. The organization and function of the visual cortex greatly influence CNN architecture because it is designed to resemble the neuronal connections in the human brain. Some of the popular CNN architectures are LeNet, AlexNet and VGGNet.

Middleware is sometimes called plumbing because it connects two applications and passes data between them.
Middleware allows data contained in one database to be accessed through another.
Middleware often enables interoperability between applications that run on different operating systems, by supplying services so the application can exchange data in a standards-based way.
Middleware sits "in the middle" between application software that may be working on different operating systems.
This involved system design engineering experts from 10 major European broadcasters working over a 12-month period to understand the effect of predominantly software-based products to media production and broadcasting system design techniques.
The resulting reports Tech 3300 and Tech 3300s were published and are freely available from the EBU web site.
Intelligent Middleware (IMW) provides real-time intelligence and event management through intelligent agents.
The IMW manages the real-time processing of high volume sensor signals and turns these signals into intelligent and actionable business information.
The distinction between operating system and middleware functionality is, to some extent, arbitrary.
While core kernel functionality can only be provided by the operating system itself, some functionality previously provided by separately sold middleware is now integrated in operating systems.
Middleware services provide a more functional set of application programming interfaces to allow an application to: when compared to the operating system and network services.

Building a gaming PC can be intimidating, especially if you’ve never done it before. However, with the right knowledge and guidance, anyone can build a powerful gaming rig to handle the latest games and software.
A gaming PC requires everything the same as other computers. Since it is the basic process of starting the development from scratch, you must focus on the significant components that give your PC a shape and purpose.
The trend of gaming is on the rise these days. You will see so many young people making gaming a career. Hence, they require all the high-end tech to set up a professional gaming space. It allows them to operate from the place where they have built the system. But have you ever noticed what things are essential in achieving the purpose?
This article will provide some tips and tricks for beginners on how to build a gaming PC from scratch.
Tips And Tricks For Building A Gaming PC From Scratch
– Choose the Right Components
The first step in building a PC is to choose the right components. You’ll need a powerful processor, a high-end graphics card, plenty of RAM, a reliable power supply unit (PSU), and a sturdy case. When choosing your components, make sure they are compatible with each other and that they meet your budget and performance needs.
Look for a CPU with multiple cores and a high clock speed for the processor, such as an Intel Core i7 or AMD Ryzen 7. For the graphics card, choose a model that can handle the latest games and software, such as an NVIDIA GeForce GTX or AMD Radeon RX. Aim for at least 16GB of RAM, and choose a PSU with sufficient wattage to power your components. Finally, select a case that can accommodate your components and has good airflow for cooling.
– Install the Components
Once you have all your components, it’s time to install them. Begin by mounting the motherboard into the case and securing it with screws. Install the CPU into the motherboard, aligning it correctly and securing it with the clamp. Apply thermal paste to the CPU, and then attach the CPU cooler.
Next, install the RAM into the appropriate slots on the motherboard, and then attach the graphics card to the PCIe slot. Connect the power cables from the PSU to the motherboard, graphics card, and other components. Finally, attach the storage devices, such as an SSD or HDD, to the motherboard.
– Cable Management
Cable management is an essential part of building a gaming PC. Proper cable management can improve airflow and reduce the risk of overheating. Use zip ties or cable ties to organize and secure the cables, and try to route them away from the components as much as possible.
– Install the Operating System and Drivers
Once you’ve installed all the components and organized the cables, it’s time to install the operating system (OS) and drivers. Insert the OS installation disc or USB drive into the computer, and follow the prompts to install the OS. After the OS installation is complete, install the drivers for each component, such as the graphics card and sound card.
Overclocking is the process of increasing the clock speed of your components, such as the CPU or graphics card, to improve performance. However, overclocking can also increase heat and reduce the lifespan of your components. If you decide to overclock, do so cautiously and use software tools to monitor temperatures and stability.
– Buy a Gaming Monitor
After selecting the necessary components for your PC build, it’s essential to consider the peripherals for a high-quality gaming experience. The first thing to focus on is the monitor. Although a basic 1920×1080 monitor will suffice, other options exist for a better experience. Investing in higher resolutions like 2540×1440 or 3840×2160 (4K) can offer crystal clear images. Additionally, upgrading to higher refresh rates of 144Hz or 240Hz can make the graphics smoother. It’s also crucial to consider the monitor’s compatibility with your GPU, with options like Nvidia’s G-Sync or AMD’s Freesync, which can reduce screen tearing and enhance the gaming experience.
However, these upgrades will increase the cost of the monitor. But since the purpose of building a powerful PC is to have a great gaming experience, investing in a good quality monitor is essential. Choosing a monitor with low input lag and fast pixel response times is critical in gaming.
For a reasonably priced entry-level gaming monitor, the Acer ED242QR is an excellent choice with its Freesync and 144Hz refresh rate, making it a perfect match for entry-level to mid-range GPUs. For a more luxurious gaming experience, the Alienware 34 monitor is a top-of-the-line option.
– Get Your Hands on a Gaming Mouse
Is a mouse just a basic computer accessory? Not really. As we have discussed earlier, you can choose a mouse that complements your preferences and style. For gamers, it’s important to have mappable buttons and the ability to adjust DPI (cursor speed) on the go. You might also want a unique design or a wireless option.
However, comfort is the most crucial factor to consider. Selecting a mouse that feels comfortable to hold for extended periods is important. The Logitech G502 Hero is a popular choice among gamers for its design and features, but numerous options are available from companies such as Corsair, Razer, and others.
– Bring in the Best Keyboard
Although a keyboard may appear to be a simple device, numerous options are available that cater to different preferences. Do you prefer the conventional feel of a membrane keyboard or the precise tactile feedback of mechanical switches? Are you looking for a wired or wireless option? Do you require macro keys? Additionally, how significant is RGB lighting to you?
Fortunately, there are many excellent keyboards to choose from, so you can find one that meets your specific requirements. For instance, the Corsair K70 LUX is a widely popular mechanical keyboard with numerous features, while the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition is an excellent entry-level mechanical board that features Razer optical switches.
The best approach is to try out different keyboards to identify your personal preference. However, you can also start by consulting this guide on selecting the ideal keyboard. Ensure you get all these things from a reliable online store or a physical shop.
Building a gaming PC may seem daunting, but it’s a rewarding and fulfilling experience with the right components and knowledge. Choose the right components, install them correctly, manage the cables, and install the OS and drivers. If you decide to overclock, do so cautiously and use software tools to monitor stability and temperatures. With these tips and tricks, beginners can build the power to handle the latest games and software.
