- UCSD computer scientists take the 'why' out of WiFi
09-04-2007 · EurekAlert!
UCSD computer scientists have designed a system that automatically analyzes the behavior of all the WiFi connections in the UCSD computer science building. "In the end, we can say 'it's because of this that your wireless is slow or has stopped working' -- and we can tell you immediately," said computer science professor Stefan Savage, a senior author on the paper presented last week in Kyoto, Japan, at ACM SIGCOMM, the premier computer networking conference.

- MIT device draws cells close -- but not too close -- together
03-29-2007 · EurekAlert!
In a popular children's game participants stand as close as possible without touching. But on a microscopic level, coaxing cells to be very, very close without actually touching one another has been among the most frustrating challenges for cell biologists. Now MIT researchers led by Sangeeta Bhatia, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology, have solved the problem with a novel device.
