Dr. Hessah Al-Sheikh, Dean of the Women’s College, said, “We believe that such events contribute to furthering our students’ understanding of the requirements of today’s competitive market and provide them with the chance to experience what they learn in real-life situations”. She added, “We are proud of the success of this year’s Careers Day” and that this event will be held annually. The Career Day 2010 was sponsored by Sadad, Al Rabie, Riyadh Bank, and Souq.com.
Existing communications and computer architecture are increasingly being limited by the pedestrian speed of electrons moving through wires, and the future of high-speed communication and computing is in optics, experts say. The Holy Grail of results would be "wireless interconnecting," which operates at speeds 100 to 1,000 times faster than current technology. The new discovery, made by researchers at Oregon State University, the University of Iowa and Philipps University in Germany, has identified a way in which nanoscale devices based on gallium arsenide can respond to strong terahertz pulses for an extremely short period, controlling the electrical signal in a semiconductor. The research builds on previous findings for which OSU holds an issued patent.
