Automated phone systems are on the verge of becoming as popular as the Internet for accessing data, buying items, trading stock and booking flights.

Should a computer crash, an administrator can simply re-install every program on the computer, including the operating system, in a few minutes, saving countless man hours. A new method for reducing computer circuits' energy requirements without cutting down on overall operating speed has been developed by researchers from Penn State, the University of South Florida and the University of Texas at El Paso. Their approach is based on combining the use of multiple voltages with a new concept, dynamic frequency clocking, which schedules energy resources on a flexible basis.
