Sounding the Stars with Genetic Algorithms


Google Tech Talks January 13, 2009 ABSTRACT In February 2009 NASA will launch the Kepler satellite, a mission designed to discover habitable Earth-like planets around distant Sun-like stars. The method that Kepler will use to detect distant worlds will only reveal the size of the planet relative to the size of the host star, so part of the mission is devoted to characterizing distant Suns using a technique known as “asteroseismology”. I have developed an automated approach to matching computer models of stars to such observations, based primarily on a parallel genetic algorithm. I will give a broad overview of how we can probe the insides of stars using seismology, and I will provide a general background on the operation of our model-fitting application. I will conclude with our first results on a nearby star: the Sun. Speaker: Travis Metcalfe Travis Metcalfe is an astronomer at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado. He started his career in the backyard of his childhood home in rural Oregon, and continued it in such places as Tucson, Austin, and Boston before landing in Boulder four years ago.

Forum gt: www.giorgiotave.it Il concetto di indicizzazione, attualmente pilastro fondamentale di ogni nostro ragionamento, avrà un ridimensionamento, una fine? E se sì, da chi, cosa o come verrà sostituito? Se è veramente bravo ed esperto vedrà il futuro meglio e prima di tutti gli altri.

On this Brainstorming The Future, we discuss the possibilities of QR-Codes, the 2D barcode format that promises to change the way we interact with the world around us using our phones. Starting with a Google Buzz seed post form Gina Tripani, follow the evolution of the concept through posts from Danny Sullivan, Matt Cutts and a conversation with Nancy Rossi on QR-enhanced signage. www.GadgetX.com Gina Trapani Buzz: www.google.com Danny Sullivan Buzz:: www.google.com Matt Cutts Buzz: www.google.com Nancy Rossi – Sign Diego: www.signdiego.com

Seo Taiji Boys 1992 Debut


Seo Taiji Boys’ debut. It was first broadcasted in MBC in 1992 where new artists would perform and get judged by a panel of critics. Taiji boys got the lowest score in the show, but the audience differed and changed the way music was done in Korea. Korean music can be divided in two eras: Pre Seo Taiji and Post Seo Taiji. Also, they gave rise to the boy bands that we see in Korea today.
