Mobile phones that offer these and more general computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones.

This is 4 to 16 times as much computing capability as the American lab has now.

The rapid move to 3-D graphics will also get a boost from increased screen quality and faster computing capabilities, he said.

For the first time, companies could upgrade their computing capabilities with a new model without rewriting their applications.

Because this exceeds current computing capabilities, only 20-50 events can be stored on tape per second.

The technical advantage is that much less is assumed about the computing capability of the host, allowing the manufacturing cost to be significantly reduced.

Eucalyptus is said to be a compelling option for companies that want to have elastic computing capabilities in their own data centers.

With faster computing capability this computational constraint is less of a concern.

He refers to Moore's Law, which describes the long-term trend that computing capability doubles every 18 months to two years.

Everyone knows that the Internet, ever-faster computing capabilities and connectivity have changed the world.
