Earthquakes in China’s Qinghai province kill hundreds of people
POWERFUL earthquakes on the Tibetan plateau have killed hundreds of people and injured many thousands of others. The disaster presents the Chinese authorities with the challenge of another large-scale relief effort following an earthquake in neighbouring Sichuan province in May 2008 that killed more than 80,000 people. The remoteness of the affected area will make it all the harder.
The earthquakes, the strongest of which been reported as magnitude 6.9 or 7.1, began to strike early in the morning of Wednesday April 14th. They were centred on Yushu county in Qinghai province near the border of the Tibet Autonomous Region. Most of the buildings in the county seat, Jiegu, were damaged or destroyed. Yushu has a population of around 100,000, many of them Tibetan herders. A teacher in the adjacent county of Golog some 350 km (220m) to the north-east says he has been trying to console his weeping students since they learned that relatives in Yushu had been buried in rubble. He says Tibetan monks in Golog have been praying for the dead. …

Fault Tolerance in Computer Networks Posted By : Anand Software and Training Pvt Ltd

Fault tolerance and disaster recovery are two important things to be implemented at computer networks. Fault tolerance provides a means by which a computer or network has redundancy or the ability to recover from faults and to continue providing services during fault. Fault tolerance may be achieved by providing redundant routing, pooling servers to function in a pooled environment, or by using disk level backup schemes.
Microsoft Says Windows 7 Battery Issues Are Batteries’ Fault
February 9th, 2010 |

Microsoft claims its engineers have been exploring complaints of poor battery life for some laptops running Windows 7, and that in every case the operating system is not at fault. Instead, Windows 7 had correctly evaluated via a new feature that those users batteries were failing, Microsoft said in a Feb. 8 blog posting. However, posts on Microsoft Watch, TechNet and other discussion forums seem to suggest that at least a percentage of users experiencing these issues also had batteries that were either new or nearly new, which in turn is raising further questions.

Cable fault cuts off West Africa
July 30th, 2009 |
No Comments
Large parts of West Africa are struggling to get back online following damage to an undersea cable.
The fault has caused severe problems in Benin, Togo, Niger and Nigeria.
The blackout is thought to have been caused by damage to the SAT-3 cable which runs from Portugal and Spain to South Africa, via West Africa.
Around 70% of Nigeria’s bandwidth was cut, causing severe problems for its banking sector, government and mobile phone networks.
"SAT-3 is currently the only fibre optic cable serving West Africa," explained Ladi Okuneye, chief marketing officer of Suburban Telecoms, which provides the majority of Nigeria’s bandwidth.
"So all West African countries have to use it."
Companies were being forced to use alternatives – such as using satellite links – to maintain connections to the rest of the world, he said.
Telkom South Africa, one of the shareholders of SAT-3, has not said what caused the problems but said it was aware of "a cable fault on the Benin branch that is being investigated".
The 15,000km (9,300mile) SAT-3 cable lands in eight West African countries as it winds its way between Europe and South Africa.
"The rest of the system is unaffected by this fault," a Telkom South Africa representative said.
Nigeria has been badly hit because around 70% of its bandwidth is routed through neighbouring Benin.
The network, run by Suburban Telecom, was set up to bypass Nigeria’s principal telecoms operator Nitel which runs the SAT-3 branch cable which lands in Nigeria.
The SAT-3 consortium is in the process of sending a ship from Cape Town in South Africa to the area to investigate the fault.
Mr Okuneye said that by the time the relevant paperwork was done, it was likely to be "two weeks" before the ship arrived off the coast.
Meanwhile, Benin has been able to reroute its net traffic through neighbouring countries to get back online.
Mr Okuneye said his company was hoping to do the same but said the process would be slower because its bandwidth requirements were so much larger than those of the small republic.
Togo and Niger, which are not part of the SAT-3 consortium, remain offline.
