Brain-computer interface successfully predicts patient's thoughts in two separate studies. Thoughts health innovators?

A new brain-computer interface (BCI) predicted unspoken words from brain activity. A BCI has successfully been used in two separate studies to decode words in a part of the brain recently implicated in predictive speech patterns. The studies could help patients with brain injuries or diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) that cause total-body paralysis, including the muscles…

Introduction

One of the glamorous new features of VMware vSphere 6.0 Update 1 is the new web interface for the Platform Service Controller (PSC) component of vCenter. This is VMware’s attempt at making the PSC a little more user friendly. This blog article is an exploration of this interface. To access the PSC, you’ll need:

a local account for vCenter (for example, [email protected]), and

a web browser (because that’s the future….).

You point the browser at https://(vcenter)/psc and log in. This works regardless of whether you have an embedded vCenter solution (vCenter server and PSC on one server) or go for separate servers, though obviously the URL is a little different! This is what you’ll see. Pretty, isn’t it?

Single Sign On

We can carry out some user administration and configuration – this could be done from within the vCenter itself already, and the GUI is no different. So, as before, we can set up identity sources and set up policies.

Managing the VMCA

The new element is the Certificates section which provides some tools to aid managing the VMCA – the built in Certificate Authority. If you’re replacing the certificates with proper signed certificates to make it an intermediate certificate authority (which is better than leaving it at the default), you can replace the Root Certificate for the vCenter Certificate Authority by going through Certificate Authority> Root Certificate. You’ll still need to go through the process of creating a CSR and editing the certificate, as would have been the case in the old process anyway. (Take a look at the VMware vSphere 6 documentation for this.). After this, you renew the machine certificate for vCenter by going to Certificate Management>Machine Certificates and selecting the __Machine_Cert and hitting Renew. If you’ve got any solutions installed, the Solution User Certificates tab can be used to renew these also. By managing certificates on the PSC before adding any other components, you don’t need to change anything else – the PSC will issue trusted certificates to requesting components from here on out.

Last but not least

Finally, there’s a section called Appliance Settings. Obviously, this is focused on the vCenter appliance and provides both administration for Active Directory domain membership….. … and access to the link to the actual Appliance settings interface, accessible separately at https://(vCenter Appliance):5480/login.html. So, overall, a useful feature and a big improvement on the initial release.

About the Author

Augmented deliberation: Merging physical and virtual interaction to engage communities in urban planning is about introducing the concept of augmented deliberation. The community had a huge park project in Boston by connecting everyone online in a virtual space all at one to give their input on what they wanted to see and get done in 3D rather than on paper with outlines of where things could be placed.  

My artifact shows what the picture would simulate for when the community gets a visual of what the park would look like. It is almost like a Sims game where you can see what it is going on. This would tie into interface, bringing the community all together by using technology, allowing everyone to engage with what is happening. 

A database is a search engine with collections of data. An interface can be broad or narrow. The main interfaces that Murray State University uses are hosted by EBSCO, so when you search for a term it will also search in the other interfaces that are connected via EBSCO. 

When searching through an interface it is easier to find what you need through controlled vocabulary, not natural language. Typing in "and" and "the" only hinder the search. You have to use a truncation symbol to have variations of a root word. On each interface there is a different symbol used. When typing "and" it has to be in capital letters for the search engine to understand that you want both terms, along with OR for having either one of them.
