Arctic sea ice reaches minimum extent for 2009, third lowest ever recorded
The Arctic sea ice cover appears to have reached its minimum extent for the year, the third-lowest recorded since satellites began measuring sea ice extent in 1979, according to the University of Colorado at Boulder's National Snow and Ice Data Center. view more (2009-09-18)
Green light for high data rates
As their quality has improved, services such as video streaming and Internet telephony have proliferated, but the high bandwidths can cause data congestion. At CeBIT a Competence Center is demonstrating how priority can be assigned dynamically to rapid connections. Data traffic on the Internet is like traffic on the road. Data files can be... view more... (2002-03-06)
