HDMI Extender: Transmit HDMI Video Signal Over Long Distance With High Resolutions
HDMI extender stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface extender. It is a hardware device that allows you to extend HDMI video signals long distances via inexpensive Cat5e / Cat6 UTP cables. These extenders were introduced to overcome the limitations of HDMI cables. They are light in weight and eliminate the need of traditional bulky cables. Even though video signals are extended over long distances, these units still deliver crisp and clear high resolution images. Available in different types, these extension devices are commonly used in call centers, airports and restaurants as well as military and commercial environments.
Another type of HDMI extension device, the HDMI fiber optic extender is a hardware device used to transmit HDTV (High definition television) digital video signals distances up to 330 ft via fiber optic cables. This extender supports resolutions up to 1920×1200 and HDTV resolution up to 1080p. These extender devices are resistant to RFI (Radio Frequency Interface) and EMI (Electromagnetic Interface). They allow the transmission of signals without any video loss or degradation. Some extender units also have the ability to switch to power save mode when the source device is powered off. Extensively used in digital signage applications in a variety of industries such as medical, airport, they can be used with Plasma TV’s, Digital Projectors, LCD Monitors and HDTVs.

Peter Liefer, President of web design agency, PrimeView, helps prepare AZ high school students for successful information technology careers
In partnership with Arizona State University, the Arizona Department of Education recently held a career and technical skills standards assessment meeting, reviewing the current information technology preparation standards for secondary education. Professionals from across the state were selected to participate on the panel based on their expertise. Peter Liefer, the President of web design and Internet marketing agency, PrimeView, recently participated in this information technology panel, and gave his insight on the education Arizona high school students need to better prepare themselves for careers involving information technology.
The standard validation team meeting was held at the downtown ASU campus in central Phoenix. Information technology professionals reviewed four main program areas currently taught in Arizona high schools, including computer maintenance, networking technology, software development, and web page development.
According to the Arizona Tech Prep website, the validation team meets to ensure secondary education coursework is not duplicated within the information technology program and ensure the necessary skills for information technology success are tackled before students seek careers after high school and college.
“The world of technology continues to evolve, and preparing students for these changes is crucial for their future career success,” said Peter Liefer, President of PrimeView. “I was honored to have the privilege to participate in a panel to help map out the most important technological elements students at the secondary education level should know.”

GPU computing – high performance computing at its best
A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a RISC processor used in video game systems and computers for calculating the graphical output for monitors. GPUs are used at manipulating and displaying computer graphics. GPUs are a part of mother board or they can come along with video cards. Graphic accelerators are a part of GPU also. High performance GPU computing involves solving advanced computational problems using supercomputers and computer clusters. GPU computing includes all tasks that a graphics processing unit can calculate.
In GPU computing the CPU calculations are replaced by Graphics Processing Units. Migrating large scale algorithms and entire kernel onto the GPU co-processors help in arriving at the answer much faster and thus decreases the processing time. GPUs are never a complete replacement for CPUs but complementary. Parallel operation of CPU and GPU has found to increase the performance. CPU’s offload the tasks which are better performed by GPU leading to high performance computing. GPU excel CPU’s in certain computational tasks.
A GPU’s processing power is mostly used while dealing with 3D scenes and video. The GPU computing for a graphics task such as rendering a 3D scene involves many stages like vertex processing, vertices grouping, fragment processing and mathematical operations. GPU computing is also known as General Purpose Computation on Graphics Processing Unit. Acceleration of video and picture editing, artificial intelligence and physics calculations come under the tasks of GPU computing.
