Cloud computingCloud computing Cloud computing is the new name for a practice that is as old as computer networks: using the computational resources of a geographically distant computer as if it were our own PC. The first and most long-standing example of this is e-mail. The technological evolution of computers and the speed of ultra-broadband networks makes it possible to take this approach to the extreme: remote data centres hosting thousands of servers, which store our documents, photos, music and run programmes that are seemingly located on our laptops or smartphones. is the new name for a practice that is as old as computer networks: using the computational resources of a geographically distant computer as if it were our own PC.

Fiber Sensing: optical fiber is also a sensor
Fiber Sensing, also known as ‘distributed sensing’, is a technology that enables continuous measurements of seismic waves in real time over the entire length of a fibre optic cable. Let’s take a look at its applications together.
