China introduces new software to check corruption




Beijing: With corruption among official ranks emerging as a major menace, a Chinese provincial government has introduced a computer software which continuously monitor the work of officials.
"If an official violates the protocol when dealing with a case, a red light will flicker," Ding Haiyang, head of the discipline department of the bureau told official Xinhua newsagency.

The system enables public to follow their case, know the result of the official's work on a website and make complaints online, Ding said.

"Since the system was installed, every official has tried his best to finish his part of his work in time and hand it to colleagues in the next step.
A survey shows most Chinese believe relations with the U.S. worsened last year, and the overwhelming majority blame Washington for the decline.

The figures published in the official China Daily newspaper on Monday come just ahead of Chinese President Hu Jintao's state visit to the U.S. this week.

The figures say 53 percent of those responding saw relations with the U.S. getting worse last year. Just over 80 percent blame the deterioration of ties on Washington.

‘Wireless’ humans could backbone new mobile networks

People could form the backbone of powerful new mobile internet networks by carrying wearable sensors. The sensors could create new ultra high bandwidth mobile internet infrastructures and reduce the density of mobile phone base stations.Engineers from Queen’s Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology are working on a new project based on the rapidly developing science of body-centric communications.Social benefits could include vast improvements in mobile gaming and remote healthcare, along with new precision monitoring of athletes and real-time tactical training in team sports, an institute release said.The researchers are investigating how small sensors carried by members of the public, in items such as next generation smartphones, could communicate with each other to create potentially vast body-to-body networks.The new sensors would interact to transmit data, providing ‘anytime, anywhere’ mobile network connectivity.Simon Cotton from the i
