Blue Eyes is a technology that aims to give computers human-like perceptual and sensory abilities such as sight. It monitors and records physiological data from human operators such as eye movement. Wireless Bluetooth technology is used to acquire this data without restricting operator mobility. This allows real-time user-defined alarm triggering and recorded data playback to avoid human errors from factors like fatigue. Potential applications include industrial facilities, transportation centers, and assistance for disabled individuals.

Blue Eyes is a technology conducted by the research team of IBM at its Almaden Research Center (ARC) in San Jose, California since 1997. Blue eyes technology makes a computer to understand and sense human feelings and behavior and also enables the computer to react according to the sensed emotional levels. The aim of the blue eyes technology is to give human power or abilities to a computer, so that the machine can naturally interact with human beings as we interact with each other. All human beings have some perceptual capabilities, the ability to understand each other’s emotional level or feelings from their facial expressions. Blue eyes technology aims at creating a computer that have the abilities to understand the perceptual powers of human being by recognizing their facial expressions and react accordingly to them.
Imagine, a beautiful world, where humans collaborate with computers!! .The computer can talk, listen or screech aloud!! .With the help of speech recognition and facial recognition systems, computers gathers information from the users and starts interacting with them according to their mood variations. Computer recognizes your emotional levels by a simple touch on the mouse and it can interact with us as an intimate partner. The machine feels your presence; verifies your identity and starts interacting with you and even it will dial and call to your home at any urgent situations. This all is happening with this “Blue Eyes” technology.
In the past few decades, wearable sensors and devices have evolved into central technologies that have significantly impacted next-generation healthcare solutions in the previous decade. It is an age of incredibly cut-throat competition, even the youth. This technology is Hand-free, eyephone-operated telephone technology. It measures where the user’s eyes are located on the phone’s display employing a camera attached to the device. The typical work the eye bones assigned to eye tracking, eye blinking, detecting, etc., by way of eye-tracking, users can take care of their email, calendar, phone, etc.Advanced phone cameras and machine learning algorithms have now paved the way for a new form of eye-tracking: smartphone technology
The basic idea behind this technology is to give computer the human power.Due to this the machine can understand what a user wants, where he is looking at and even realize his physical or emotional states.Use camera and microphone to identify user actions and emotions.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
2. • BLUE EYES is a technology, which aims at creating co
mputational machines that have perceptual and senso
ry abilities like those of human beings.
• The basic idea behind this technology is to give com
puter human power.
• It provides technical means for monitoring and recor
ding human-operator’s physiological condition.
3. As the idea is to monitor and record operator’s basic physi
ological parameters, the most important physiological acti
vity is the movement of eyes.
For a computer to sense the eye movement, wiring betwee
n operator and the system is required.
But, this is a serious limitation of the operator’s mobility a
nd disables his operations in large control rooms.
So utilization of wireless technology becomes essential w
hich can be implemented through blue tooth technology.

23. Operator is a person whose physiological parameters
are supervised
The operator wears the DAU
The only functions offers to the operator are Authoriz
ation to the system and receiving alarm alerts.
Authorization: Operator has to enter his personal PIN
into DAU, if PIN is accepted, authorization is said to
be complete.
Receiving Alerts: This function supplies the operator
with the most important alerts about his and his co-w
orkers’ condition and mobile device state.
24. He is the person responsible for analyzing operators’
condition and performance.
The supervisor receives tools for inspecting present v
alues of the parameters (on-line browsing) as well as
browsing the results of the long-term analysis (off-lin
e browsing).
25. He is the user that maintains the system
The administrator is delivered tools for adding new o
perators to the database. Defining alarm conditions.
Configuring logging tools.
Creating new analyzer modules.
26. POD

Blue Eyes is going to find its way in the routines of h
uman beings with application such as TV, washing m
achine etc.
In a company, the supervisor can be given the power t
o access the database containing his employees profil
e, which is linked with Blue Eyes technology. hereby
he can evaluate the performance of his employees.
30. The wireless link between the sensors worn by the ope
rator and the supervising system makes it possible to i
mprove overall reliability, safety and assures proper q
uality of system performance.
These new possibilities can cover areas such as industr
y, transportation, military command centers or operatio
n theaters.
Researchers are attempting to add more capabilities to
computers that will allow them to interact like humans
, recognize human presents, talk, listen, or even guess t
heir feelings.
It avoids potential threats resulting from human errors,
such as weariness, oversight, tiredness.
