The Washington Post: Microsoft released the latest hardware drivers diagnostic tool, helping manufacturers to avoid driving loophole
At a recent Windows Hardware Engineering Conference WinHEC, Microsoft announced two new drives write software tool designed to help hardware manufacturers "stability, security," the Windows driver, so as to avoid hardware incompatibility phenomenon. It is reported that these two tools named "PreFast for Drivers" and Static Driver Verifier, are source code analysis tools to help people find driver source code loopholes. "We want drivers to be more reliable and stable." Microsoft spokesman says. As we all know, Windows operating system requires additional hardware driver to make the normal operation, the driver problem will lead to the paralysis of the entire computer.

Reuters: nano-materials technology becoming more perfect, invisible cloak technology is expected to put into practice
Perhaps this scene can only appear in science fiction movies: hero wearing a stealth cloak, and instantly escape the enemy surrounded. With the tireless efforts of scientists, however, may be invisible cloak is no longer just a product of fantasy. It is understood that the surface material to a special technology, light and other electromagnetic waves will be bent and cut to bypass this particular system, which appears invisible, results.
Scientists said that with the current nano-technology, the production of this special material will not be impossible.
