(SAIC) in San Diego is designing tsunami-warning ocean buoys for the People's Republic of China that feature GPS satellite positioning technology, advanced batteries, seismic data processing, and embedded computer systems to provide quick warning information in the event of potentially catastrophic tidal waves. Military hard drive manufacturers balance the benefits of spinning-media and solid-state data storage  Product intelligence report -- Military hard drive manufacturers used to believe the military data storage industry was moving to solid-state data storage. Traditional military hard drives made from spinning magnetic media were thought to be too delicate for punishing military systems in the field, where extremes in shock, vibration, temperature, and other harsh-environment operating conditions are the norm. The influence of lead-free RoHS guidelines on military electronics procurement  Special report -- Worldwide environmental requirements to use lead-free solder continue to put the squeeze on military system designers who wish to avoid using lead-free electronics because of tin whiskers and other potential impediments to high-reliability electronics. Lost opportunity for the VME embedded electronics industry  Commentary -- The military VME embedded electronics industry may be throwing away an opportunity to unite behind a new generation of industry standards designed to help guide military and aerospace embedded computing designers into the future. Software vendors secure and protect classified and mission-critical information in the digital age  Technology focus -- Information and information systems are under attack. Someone somewhere is trying to access information that does not belong to him at virtually any given moment, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year.
