Simplex Noise
Simplex noise was a second brainchild of Ken Perlin, the creator of Perlin noise. Simplex noise was created in 1991, as a less computationally intensive variant on Perlin noise, which still produced artefact-free noise, but required fewer multiplications and could scale to higher dimensions.
Simplex noise is often used to replicate Perlin noise in real-time applications, where every clock cycle counts.

Why Recoil at Unpleasant Noise Occurs
Nails on a blackboard. It is an unbearable noise, one that sends shivers through anyone who hears it. But why does it do this, and more importantly, how can a virtual environment replicate the effect in any sound?
iPhone Based Hearing Aids
A novel and very practical use for an iPhone as an auxiliary hearing aid has been developed. The soundAMP program takes control of the iPhone, and essentially uses the in-built microphone to boost ambient noise levels.
Combating Noise and Distortion When Linking Aircraft to the wider Sensor Net
Commercial aircraft are a problem when it comes to linking them to the wider sensor net - all external electronic communication flows through a single part of the nose of the plane. This must be precision manufactured to be defect-free, or moisture and heat can tear the signal apart. How then, do you guarantee it is defect-free?
