The two-year-old boy, Sujith Wilson, who is trapped in borewell in Tamil Nadu’s
trichy for over 60 hours now, had fainted but was breathing, said authorities on
Sunday

glove knitting machine Manufacturers night.The child fell into a 25-feet
borewell while he was playing near his house. Later, he slipped further down and
is now stuck at 100 feet into the borewell after rescuers tried to pull him up
using a rope.The rescue team is drilling a one-meter-wide tunnel parallel to the
borewell to reach him but the progress is slow due to the rocky terrain. Deputy
Chief Minister O Panneerselvam visited the site and met Sujiths
family.Highlighting that due to the presence of hard rocks in the area there is
a delay in the drilling process, Panneerselvam said, "However, within four or
five hours, the rescue operation will reach its final stage.
The brilliant
implementation, called ScreenPad 2.0 by the company changed the way we looked at
laptops. Going back to a regular touchpad laptop naturally felt like a big
downgrade. Easy example: Take both autonomous vehicles (self-driving cars)
andconnected vehicles (ones that communicate a great deal of data with other
vehicles but do not make decisions for the driver). They’re intuitive edge use
cases. If a connected or a self-driving car’s sensors learn that children are
playing in the road and another vehicle is likely to blow through a nearby red
light, this information needs to be processed quickly. We don’t have
milliseconds of latency to spare to send those insights back to the cloud for
processing. The data needs acting upon right this split second.Levin is right to
point out that the processing of this life-critical data—often via machine
learning—will need to happen at the end points. But the title of his talk is a
bit of a misnomer.
Even he, in the very same presentation, admits that
"important information will still get stored in a centralized cloud" and depicts
the cloud as becoming a learning center of sorts to enable machine learning en
masse, which requires a great deal of data and aggregating insights at the edge.
Gartner’s Bittman, too, conceded that "cloud will have its role."So no, the edge
will not overtake the cloud. Instead, it will prompt the cloud to extend its
fabric to the edge.The hyperscale data center model continues to work well for
applications that benefit from centralization: large-scale archiving, content
distribution, application storage, and fast prototyping, among others.It is also
true that a specific kind of cloud deconsolidation is taking place
concomitantly. Google now wants Maps to be a lot more by infusing it with Google
Assistant and Visual Positioning System (VPS).
