I have always had a passion for science education. It was instilled in me from childhood and the people who excelled where I am from in India were science majors.

The transistor was invented 75 years ago, and the integrated circuit soon thereafter. The progress in making transistors smaller also led to them becoming cheaper, which was famously noted as Moore’s law.

A key objective of electronics engineering studies focusing on radio communication is the development of increasingly smaller, lighter, and low-power radio components.

Indiana is developing its engineering-rich, high-tech talent base to position the state as a leader in the country’s growing microelectronics manufacturing industry.

On a recent afternoon, an unusual group of visitors peered through a window at Purdue University students tinkering in a lab: two dozen executives from the world’s biggest semiconductor companies. The tech leaders had traveled to the small-town campus on the Wabash River to fix one of the biggest problems that they – and the U.S. economy – face: a desperate shortage of engineers.

Today at SigstoreCon, the Sigstore community announced the general availability of its free software signing service giving open source communities access to production-grade stable services for artifact signing and verification.

The quantum internet, with its promise of data teleportation and ironclad security, sounds like something out of Star Trek.

Researchers in the United States have developed an algorithm to help power companies prioritise security investments and fend off a ransomware attack that could cause millions to lose electricity. No single company has enough resources to protect the entire US power grid, the research group at Purdue University discovered.

IN THE WAKE of alarming incidents like Russia’s massive 2017 NotPetya malware attack and the Kremlin’s 2020 SolarWinds cyberespionage campaign—both pulled off by poisoning wells for software distribution—organizations around the world have been scrambling to get a handle on software supply chain security.

The packed parking lot at the old GM plant is a sign that the semi-conductor chip shortage is still an issue.
