Ross Pfeffer discussed the history and growth of international internet cable capacity between Australia/New Zealand and the rest of the world. He noted that total capacity has grown from 0.05 Tbps in the early 1990s to over 2.5 Tbps now, driven by new cable deployments, upgrades to existing cables, and technology advancements. While some early cables failed or were restructured, overall capacity has increased at 45% CAGR since 2002 to meet 65% CAGR growth in data demand. Significant price reductions have also fueled demand growth. Ross predicts capacity and demand will continue growing for the next 5-7 years before slowing, and that existing cables will meet this demand through continued upgrades.

1. Synthetic oils are manufactured using chemical synthesis and contain additives. They can be made from synthetic hydrocarbons, organic esters, or other materials like phosphate esters or silicones.
2. Synthetic oils offer advantages over mineral oils like wider temperature ranges, better oxidation stability, and lower friction for improved fuel economy. They form thicker oil films for better wear protection.
3. Pertamina's synthetic oil products include the Fastron fully synthetic 0W-50 engine oil with PAO base oil and synthetic compressor oils under the GC Lube Syn brand made with diester base oil.
The document discusses base oil classifications and properties. It describes how crude oil is distilled to produce base oils, which are then classified by the American Petroleum Institute (API) into Groups based on characteristics like saturates content and sulfur levels. Group I oils are solvent-refined while Groups II-III are hydroprocessed and Group IV includes polyalphaolefins. The properties of each Group are outlined, with higher-numbered Groups generally having better viscosity-temperature properties and oxidation resistance.
Commercial vehicle lubricant consumption in Indonesia has grown as the truck population has increased more rapidly than the overall population from 2011 to 2014.

Wire bonding is used to electrically interconnect integrated circuits to packages so they can be handled, tested, and used in electronic products. There are two main types of wire bonding: ball bonding and wedge bonding. Ball bonding uses a capillary tool to form a ball bond on the chip and substrate, while wedge bonding uses a wedge tool. Wire bonding allows for high-speed, economical connections and is the most common interconnection method. It enables signals and power to be distributed from the packaged IC to the rest of the system while also providing mechanical support and environmental protection.
