SYDNEY, Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Australian cloud computing market was worth US$ 882.4 million in 2012 and is expected to reach US$ 3.33 billion in 2016. Frost & Sullivan expects this market to grow at a CAGR of 40.3% from 2011-2016.
According to Andrew Milroy, Vice President, ICT Practice, Frost & Sullivan Asia Pacific, cloud computing is witnessing growing traction in Australia. Indeed, Australia is leading cloud adoption in the Asia Pacific region.
"Almost a third of businesses in Asia Pacific today use cloud computing. In Australia, 43% of businesses have adopted cloud computing, the highest in the region," said Milroy at Frost & Sullivan's ICT outlook briefing 2013 held in Sydney today.
The increasing use of cloud computing together with mobility, big data and social media are transforming the ways in which organizations and individuals engage with one another. They are also transforming the way business is conducted. Key changes include a reduction in the size of IT departments and much greater cross industry convergence.
"The use of cloud services will reduce the need for many traditional IT activities. Cloud services drive automation, self service, and self provisioning to the extent that the need for support services provided by IT departments will decline dramatically," said Milroy.
He added, "The use of mobile devices that are sourced by individuals (BYOD) also eliminates some support tasks as well as procurement activities."
The shrinking of IT departments will change the role of IT. CIOs and their teams will increasingly focus on enabling the use of technology across the organization. Their focus will be on ensuring that when employees use technology, they comply with policies and regulations.
"They will also seek to add business value by working with other employees and stakeholders to integrate new services and processes into their businesses. Today's developers and technical professionals will be forced to focus on ways that their skills can be used to foster innovation within diverse business activities," continued Milroy.
The use of new technologies also lowers the barriers to entry for many markets. A clear trend has emerged over the past several years whereby IT firms seek to control and manage the complete user experience.
Milroy said, "Apple has illustrated this by entering first the music industry and now multiple media industries. Google and Amazon have similarly shown little respect to the boundaries between industries. They have succeeded in switching between industries by leveraging new technologies."
Infrastructure software and hardware products have become commodities. According to Milroy, growth in these markets will come largely from acquisitions. A growing number of independent IT vendors will struggle to survive as it becomes extremely difficult to differentiate their offerings. Today's large IT vendors can be expected to acquire remaining point solution vendors that provide differentiated offerings.
He continued, "There will also be fewer remaining large IT vendors, as they compete with each other for a greater share of shrinking markets for their traditional products and services. The market will be dominated by a handful of technology titans by 2014. These enormous firms will engineer the ability to enter new industries."
"Technology is destroying the traditional boundaries between industries. Some of the world's most successful firms such as Amazon, Google and Apple recognize this. These firms use their brands, their customer relationships and their 'state of the art' technology to seamlessly move from one industry to another, 'terrorizing' incumbents in the process," said Milroy.

Russia could face the threat of fresh sanctions unless it fails to defuse tensions on the Ukraine border, the White House has warned.
The US claimed it has intelligence suggesting Russia was accumulating tanks and military forces near its border with Ukraine.
US President Barack Obama spoke with both French President Francois Hollande and German Chancellor Angela Merkel after Ukraine's president declared a week-long ceasefire in its fight against pro-Russian separatists.
Russia dismissed Petro Poroshenko's plan, claiming it was an "ultimatum" rather than an offer of peace.
After President Obama's conversations with the respective leaders, a statement said: "They agreed that should Russia fail to take immediate, concrete steps to de-escalate the situation in eastern Ukraine, the US and the European Union would coordinate additional steps to impose costs on Russia."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
NHLPA Undecided On What Direction To Take
by Paul on 09/08/09 at 10:02 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Kevin Allen of USA TODAY,
Ian Penny, the interim executive director of the NHL Players Association, said the process to find a new union leader hasn't been determined because some players aren't sure the old way is the best way to find the right person.
"Some board members expressed to me that we should be creative and think outside the box this time around," Penny said.
The NHLPA has fired three executive directors in the past four years, including Paul Kelly, who was removed from office at approximately 3 a.m. Aug. 31, 1 after 30 NHL player representatives debated his job performance for many hours in Chicago

Home > Press > NIST/UMass Study Finds Evidence Nanoparticles May Increase Plant DNA Damage
|Graphic showing that increasing exposure to cupric oxide bulk particles (BPs) and nanoparticles (NPs) by radish plants also increases the impact on growth with NPs showing the largest impact. From left to right, the exposure concentrations are 0; 100 parts per million (ppm) BPs; 1,000 ppm BPs; 100 ppm NPs; and 1,000 ppm NPs (showing a severely stunted plant).
Credit: H. Wang, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass) have provided the first evidence that engineered nanoparticles are able to accumulate within plants and damage their DNA. In a recent paper,* the team led by NIST chemist Bryant C. Nelson showed that under laboratory conditions, cupric oxide nanoparticles have the capacity to enter plant root cells and generate many mutagenic DNA base lesions.
The team tested the man-made, ultrafine particles between 1 and 100 nanometers in size on a human food crop, the radish, and two species of common groundcovers used by grazing animals, perennial and annual ryegrass. This research is part of NIST's work to help characterize the potential environmental, health and safety (EHS) risks of nanomaterials, and develop methods for identifying and measuring them.
Cupric oxide (also known as copper (II) oxide or CuO) is a compound that has been used for many years as a pigment for coloring glass and ceramics, as a polish for optics, and as a catalyst in the manufacture of rayon. Cupric oxide also is a strong conductor of electric current, a property enhanced at the nanoscale level, which makes the nanoparticle form useful to semiconductor manufacturers.
Because cupric oxide is an oxidizing agent—a reactive chemical that removes electrons from other compounds—it may pose a risk. Oxidation caused by metal oxides has been shown to induce DNA damage in certain organisms. What Nelson and his colleagues wanted to learn was whether nanosizing cupric oxide made the generation and accumulation of DNA lesions more or less likely in plants. If the former, the researchers also wanted to find out if nanosizing had any substantial effects on plant growth and health.
To obtain the answers, the NIST/UMass researchers first exposed radishes and the two ryegrasses to both cupric oxide nanoparticles and larger sized cupric oxide particles (bigger than 100 nanometers) as well as to simple copper ions. They then used a pair of highly sensitive spectrographic techniques** to evaluate the formation and accumulation of DNA base lesions and to determine if and how much copper was taken up by the plants.
For the radishes, twice as many lesions were induced in plants exposed to nanoparticles as were in those exposed to the larger particles. Additionally, the cellular uptake of copper from the nanoparticles was significantly greater than the uptake of copper from the larger particles. The DNA damage profiles for the ryegrasses differed from the radish profiles, indicating that nanoparticle-induced DNA damage is dependent on the plant species and on the nanoparticle concentration.
Finally, the researchers showed that cupric oxide nanoparticles had a significant effect on growth, stunting the development of both roots and shoots in all three plant species tested. The nanoparticle concentrations used in this study were higher than those likely to be encountered by plants under a typical soil exposure scenario.
"To our knowledge, this is first evidence that there could be a 'nano-based effect' for cupric oxide in the environment where size plays a role in the increased generation and accumulation of numerous mutagenic DNA lesions in plants," Nelson says.
Next up for Nelson and his colleagues is a similar study looking at the impact of titanium dioxide nanoparticles—such as those used in many sunscreens—on rice plants.

In Vince Vaughn's latest lowbrow, high-concept comedy, the fast-talking firecracker from Swingers and Wedding Crashers looks exhausted. You get the sense from his red-rimmed eyes and lifeless patter that even he's tired of the junk he's been cranking out lately. An uninspired remake of the recent — and far better — Canadian import Starbuck, Delivery Man is the story of a Brooklyn screwup named David Wozniak, who years ago donated his sperm to a fertility clinic for money. It wasn't just a one-time lark. During a 33-month period in the '90s, David was paid to "wrestle the dragon" 633 times (no wonder Vaughn looks so worn-out), resulting in 533 children. Now some of those kids are suing to find out the identity of their donor dad. Oh yeah, and David's in-the-dark girlfriend (How I Met Your Mother's Cobie Smulders) tells him that she's pregnant too. Honestly, the setup sounds more promising than the hash that Vaughn and writer-director Ken Scott make of it. The lazy script jerks back and forth between masturbation-joke slapstick and gloppy sentimentality as David seeks out his offspring and tries to help them like a creepy guardian angel. The only saving grace is Chris Pratt as Vaughn's deadpan best friend. Otherwise, Delivery Man is a limp-noodle story about an unlikable guy who manages to grow up and become a marginally less unlikable guy. C

On route to Franschhoek winelands we stopped at Hermanus. Here is supposed to be 'the' place to see whales. Apparently the whales can get very close to the shore. There is a coastal walk that you can do where you can spot them. This is what we did. Ironically we did not see many whales, in fact we only saw one. Not the abundance of whales we were expecting, but we were not too bothered as we had seen our fair share of them in other locations. The coastal walk ...

"No concession with a fanatical Islamist-Jihadist regime that is hell-bent on Armageddon." Brod, why are you so obsessed with Islam/Jihad? (Which you probably know very little about). How is this any different from blaming everything on the Jews, that Nazi Germany loved to promote? Do you also refer to Hitler's Nazi Germany as a Christian/Crusader regime? And what about North Korea? Are they also motivated by Islam/Jihad? Please expand your knowledge base and try to limit your hateful talk directed at over 1 Billion Muslims throughout the Globe.

New York Giants: Rashad Jennings vs. Andre Brown
As one of their many changes this offseason, the New York Giants decided to part ways with Andre Brown and bring in former Oakland Raiders running back Rashad Jennings.
Brown, 27, went on to sign with the Houston Texans, officially ending his two-year stint with the Giants. Brown's time in New York was marred by a few serious injuries, which interrupted his solid play on the field.
In 2012, Brown stepped in for an injured Ahmad Bradshaw. Brown played in 10 games before breaking his leg, compiling 385 rush yards, averaging 5.3 yards per rush and racking up eight touchdowns.
It was a similar story in 2013. Brown broke his leg once again, this time in the preseason. He returned to the gridiron for the second half of the season and rushed for 492 yards. Brown eclipsed 100 rush yards in two out of his first three games back. However, he slowed down from there, rushing for just 68 total yards in the last three games of the season.
Jennings, who is 29, had the best year of his career in 2013. He rushed for 733 yards and had six touchdowns, as he replaced Darren McFadden in Oakland's backfield. Jennings also averaged 4.5 yards per rush.
Prior to 2013, Jennings spent three years in Jacksonville, where he only carried the ball more than 100 times in a season once. His most effective season came in 2010, when he rushed for 459 yards and scored four touchdowns.
With David Wilson's health a bit of question mark heading into 2014, the Giants seemed like they didn't want to place their faith in the injury-prone Brown. Brown gave New York everything he had when he was on the field but he became a bit too much of a liability after two seasons that were corrupted by injuries.
Jennings ushers in a new era in New York's backfield accompanied by new offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo. It will be interesting to see how the new-look Giants fare in the much-anticipated 2014 season.

Bla bla bla..... It's always the same excuses with Higgins, still young, second playoff in his career and bla bla.
The fact is, he's been a non factor this year and a Rookie like Sergei Kostitsyn has outplayed him in every area possible !!
Sergei Kostitsyn has dwarfed Higgins performance and the guy never played in the playoffs so what's you're excuse this time ?! Even guys like Kostopoulos and Smolinspuke has been better than him so far.
And don't tell me that this guy has leadership skills, because he showed none with his performances and his contraversial quotes through out the year.
If Higgins is that good, how come he can't do anything playing alonside the best 2 forwards on this team ?! I'm still waiting for that 40 goals scorer of yours...
Face it, his stone hands and his lack of offensive vision are what makes him a 3rd liner, plain and simple !!

The founding of Yeshivat Tomchei T'mimim was on Sunday, Elul 15, 5657 (1897).
The beginning of studies in Talmud and Chassidus was on Wednesday, Elul 18, 5657 (1897).
On Simchat-Torah-eve, 5659 (1898), after hakafot, my father proclaimed: The name of the Yeshiva is Tomchei T'mimim, and the students who study and conduct themselves in its spirit are to be called t'mimim.
Compiled and arranged by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, in 5703 (1943) from the talks and letters of the sixth Chabad Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, of righteous memory.
Daily Quote
Chassidism is Divine intelligence, an understanding which shows man how small he is, and how great he can become

Will Chicago Bulls' Mike Dunleavy Be Enough to Push Them Over the Top?
Mike Dunleavy went against the grain this summer when he decided to take a pay cut and sign a one-year deal with the Chicago Bulls. After recording a career high 42.8 three-point field goal percentage last season with the Milwaukee Bucks,Dunleavy received several contract offers that were more lucrative than what Chicago was able to offer him. However, the 11-year veteran passed up multi-year deals and took a pay cut to have the opportunity to compete for a championship in Chicago.
Entering this season, Dunleavy will have only been to the postseason twice; once with the 2010-11 Indiana Pacers and then most recently last season with the Bucks. Dunleavy failed to advance past the first round in each of his two appearances. With 11 years of NBA experience under his belt and little postseason success to show for it, Dunleavy decided to take an alternative route this offseason and sign with Bulls despite them offering him less money than other teams.
Dunleavy will be reunited with former college teammate Carlos Boozer. The two played together at Duke where they had great success, which was highlighted by winning the 2001 National Championship. Bulls fans are hoping that Dunleavy will once again be able to call himself a champion this season in Chicago.
The Bulls have had a very strong nucleus over the past few seasons that have gotten the team to the playoffs each of the last five seasons. However, the furthest Chicago has advanced is the Eastern Conference finals where they lost in five games to the Miami Heat in 2011. Along with health issues, one reoccurring problem that has been troubling Chicago has been lack of scoring and an outside shooting presence. The Bulls have experimented with players like Rip Hamilton, Kyle Korver, Ronnie Brewer and Marco Belinelli to provide scoring from the shooting guard position. However, none of these options have given the Bulls the success, especially in the postseason, that they were hoping for.
I have reason to believe that Dunleavy will have better success in Chicago then each of the players previously mentioned. With the emergence of Jimmy Butler towards the end of last season, he has moved his way into the starting lineup and is expected to play big minutes this year. Thus, there will not be an immense amount of pressure on Dunleavy to play a huge offensive role as he is not expected to start. Hamilton, Korver, Brewer and Belinelli were either brought in to start or relieve the offensively challenged starting shooting guard Keith Bogans. Although the Bulls would still like to see Dunleavy contribute offensively by adding around 10 points per game, he will be playing behind the best starting shooting guard, in Jimmy Butler, that the Bulls have had in quite sometime.
Dunleavy is no longer the player he was in 2007-08 when he started 82 games and averaged 19 PPG, but that's fine because the Bulls don't need him to be that player. Chicago has committed to trying to win a championship this season with by building around their superstar Derrick Rose. I expect Dunleavy to not only help the team as a whole but also make the game come easier for Rose. Assuming Dunleavy can knock down three point shots like he has been doing his entire career, he will draw defensive attention and open up the lane for Rose to drive to the basket. If Dunleavy can play his role well of providing a three point presence who can chip in around ten points per game he will be a contributing factor in what could be a very special season in Chicago.

BSkyB buys Acetrax video-on-demand service ahead of NOW TV launch
Sky's NOW TV service, which the company says is still on track to launch in the UK before the end of June, has received a major boost. The satellite broadcaster has confirmed in its latest earnings report that it has quietly acquired Acetrax, a video-on-demand service that already has apps on Samsung, LG, Panasonic and Toshiba TVs.
"On 25 April 2012, the Group acquired Acetrax, a small over-the-top (OTT) internet TV provider, which provides a transactional video-on-demand service to a wide range of internet-connected devices," says Sky of the buyout in its earnings report.
"The acquisition will support the continued development of Sky's OTT activities and further strengthen relationships with connected device manufacturers and content providers."
It is unsure at this time how Sky plans to use Acetrax, whether it will be rebranded as NOW TV, or whether Sky will use the underlying technology to help it quickly improve its soon-to-be released video streaming offering.
With less than two months before the company's own self-imposed deadline, it is unlikely that Sky will be using much of Acetrax technology or user interface straight away, but certain features are bound to work their way across.
AceTrax will no doubt also be able to help Sky further develop the company's array of apps. As well as the aforementioned smart TV applications, the small company already has a presence on Samsung, Lenovo, Acer, Asus and Toshiba tablets and laptops.
What could be key however, is that it gives Sky, as they say, a leap frog into multiple devices straight away and plenty of ammunition against NOW TV competitors LoveFilm and Netflix.
What do you think? Has Sky bought Acetrax to help its NOW TV service? Let us know in the comments below...

Cool pic Palestine money 370.
(photo credit:REUTERS/Tarmizy Harva)
Israel on Tuesday transferred NIS 200 million to the Palestinian Authority to enable it to pay government salaries, Army Radio reported, just two days before PA President Mahmoud Abbas was set to present his bid for non-member status to the UN General Assembly.The transfer of funds came despite recent threats from within the Finance Ministry to withhold tax revenues collected on behalf of the Palestinians in response to the PA's bid. The Prime Minister's Office denied knowledge of the transfer in response to a Jerusalem Post inquiry,"If the PA thinks it can assault us at the UN in such a severe manner, all while still preserving cooperation with us on the ground, then I think there is a surprise awaiting it," Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz said earlier this month. "It cannot be that they hit us unilaterally and then expect bilateral cooperation with us on economic matters."Interim peace deals task Israel with collecting taxes and customs duties on the Palestinian Authority's behalf amounting to around $100 million a month, on goods imported into the Palestinian territories.Israel has previously frozen payments to the Palestinian government during times of heightened security and diplomatic tensions, provoking strong international criticism.A senior diplomatic official said Tuesday that as a result of the Palestinian move, Israel would stick punctiliously to the letter of the agreements it has signed, including the 1994 Paris Protocol mandating economic relations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Under that protocol, Israel can withhold tax money it collects for the PA to pay for goods and services Israel provides it.The PA owes more than NIS 800 million to the Israel Electric Corporation, a debt that Jerusalem could have withheld in the two monthly tax payments scheduled to the PA.A number of right-wing politicians called for a more aggressive response to the PA's UN move. Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman made earlier that Israel should cancel the Oslo Accords and end all contact with the PA if Abbas went through with this measure at the UN.In July, Israel and the Palestinian Authority agreed on a revamp of revenue collection to try to help relieve the Palestinian government's deepening debt crisis.The aid-dependent Palestinian economy in the West Bank faces financial crisis due to a drop in aid from Western backers and wealthy Gulf states, as well as restrictions on trade.

Improving Customer Experience with In-store Mobility Technology: Converging Physical and Digital Selling into a Seamless, Cohesive Experience
A superior user experience is created when the digital and physical worlds are connected. This paper describes how a comprehensive mobile point-of-sale (POS) system can serve as the glue that holds together all of the different tangible and digital channels used today by retailers—but within the walls of a physical shopping location.
