Houthis dilabel sebagai organisasi pengganas asing, kata Rubio

March 4, 2025
(SeaPRwire) - Houthis yang disokong Iran di Yaman telah ditetapkan sebagai organisasi pengganas asing, diumumkan pada hari Selasa, memenuhi salah satu janji pertama Presiden Donald Trump semasa memegang jawatan.Rubio berkata A.S. "tidak akan bertolak ansur" dengan mana-mana negara yang berurusan dengan "organisasi pengganas seperti Houthis.""Tindakan hari ini yang diambil oleh Jabatan Negara menunjukkan komitmen Pentadbiran Trump untuk melindungi kepentingan keselamatan negara kita, keselamatan rakyat Amerika, dan keselamatan Amerika Syarikat," kata Rubio dalam kenyataan itu. "Penetapan pengganas memainkan peranan penting dalam memerangi keganasan dan merupakan cara yang berkesan untuk mengekang sokongan untuk aktiviti pengganas."Lebih daripada 100 serangan ke atas kapal di Laut Merah berikutan serangan Hamas ke atas Israel pada 7 Oktober 2023 dan perang yang berlaku di Gaza. Tentera A.S. telah mempertahankan kapal perangnya yang meronda Laut Merah dan Selat Bab al-Mandab, mengiringi dan mencegah serangan ke atas kapal komersial oleh Houthis.Yaman’s Houthis sebagai organisasi pengganas asing pada bulan Januari, menulis dalam perintah eksekutif bahawa "aktiviti Houthis mengancam keselamatan orang awam dan kakitangan Amerika di Timur Tengah, keselamatan rakan serantau terdekat kita, dan kestabilan perdagangan maritim global."Trump telah menambahkan Houthis ke dalam senarai organisasi pengganas asing semasa penggal pertamanya, tetapi Presiden Joe Biden membatalkan penetapan itu dalam tempoh sebulan selepas memegang jawatan pada tahun 2021 kerana pentadbirannya berusaha untuk memudahkan penghantaran bantuan kemanusiaan ke Yaman.Selepas Trump mencadangkan untuk mengeluarkan rakyat Palestin dari Gaza bulan lepas, pemimpin Houthis, Abdul Malik al-Houthi, berkata dalam ucapan yang disiarkan di televisyen bahawa kumpulan itu akan mengambil tindakan ketenteraan terhadap A.S. dan Israel.Terdapat perbahasan dasar di peringkat tertinggi tentang cara terbaik untuk menentang Houthis.Sesetengah pihak mencadangkan pendekatan anti-keganasan yang lebih tradisional terhadap Houthis, dengan serangan berterusan menyasarkan individu yang merancang dan menjalankan serangan berterusan, manakala yang lain mahukan pendekatan yang lebih defensif yang menyasarkan infrastruktur Houthi dan kemudahan penyimpanan senjata.’ Jennifer Griffin menyumbang kepada laporan ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Penggubal undang-undang Serbia lontar bom asap, gas pemedih mata di parlimen

March 4, 2025
` tags. (SeaPRwire) - Kekacauan tercetus di parlimen Serbia pada hari Selasa dengan ahli parlimen pembangkang melepaskan bom asap dan gas pemedih mata untuk membantah kerajaan dan menyokong pelajar yang berdemonstrasi.Sekurang-kurangnya tiga ahli parlimen cedera, dengan seorang dalam keadaan kritikal selepas mengalami strok, yang seterusnya menyemarakkan ketegangan politik di negara yang tidak berpantai itu, yang terletak di persimpangan Eropah Tenggara dan Tengah.Rakaman video dari dewan perhimpunan menunjukkan pertempuran pertama antara ahli parlimen dan kemudian suar dan bom asap dilemparkan. Media Serbia berkata telur dan botol air juga dilontarkan. Beratus-ratus penyokong pembangkang berhimpun di luar bangunan parlimen semasa sesi itu.Adegan yang buruk itu berpunca daripada runtuhnya kanopi yang membawa maut di stesen kereta api pada bulan November. Insiden itu mencetuskan protes besar-besaran apabila demonstran menuntut keadilan dan akauntabiliti untuk tragedi itu.Ramai di Serbia percaya kejadian itu adalah akibat kerja cuai dan tidak menghiraukan peraturan keselamatan kerana rasuah kerajaan. Kanopi di stesen kereta api runtuh selepas pengubahsuaian yang diketuai oleh dua syarikat dari China.Protes itu membawa kepada peletakan jawatan Milos Vucevic pada bulan Januari. Peletakan jawatan perdana menteri itu menjadikannya pegawai rejim tertinggi yang meletak jawatan, tetapi ia tidak memadamkan pemberontakan dan protes besar-besaran telah berterusan di Belgrade dan di seluruh negara.Parlimen masih perlu mengesahkan peletakan jawatan perdana menteri itu untuk berkuat kuasa.Pada sesi perundangan pada hari Selasa, ahli parlimen dijadualkan mengundi undang-undang yang akan meningkatkan pembiayaan untuk pendidikan universiti, permintaan utama oleh penunjuk perasaan pelajar.Tetapi parti-parti pembangkang berkata majoriti pemerintah juga merancang untuk meluluskan berpuluh-puluh keputusan lain. Mereka berkata ini adalah menyalahi undang-undang dan ahli parlimen harus mengesahkan dahulu peletakan jawatan Vucevic dan kerajaannya.Selepas pakatan pemerintah yang diketuai oleh Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) meluluskan agenda itu, beberapa ahli politik pembangkang berlari keluar dari tempat duduk mereka ke arah speaker parlimen dan bertikam lidah dengan pengawal keselamatan.Yang lain melemparkan bom asap dan gas pemedih mata, dengan asap hitam dan merah jambu naik di dalam parlimen, yang juga menyaksikan pergaduhan dan balingan air dalam beberapa dekad sejak pengenalan demokrasi berbilang parti pada tahun 1990.Ketika sesi diteruskan, ahli politik pakatan pemerintah berdebat manakala ahli parlimen pembangkang bersiul dan meniup hon.Ahli-ahli parlimen pembangkang juga memegang papan tanda yang bertulis "mogok umum," dan "keadilan untuk yang terbunuh," manakala di luar bangunan penunjuk perasaan berdiri dalam diam untuk menghormati 15 orang yang terbunuh oleh .Speaker parlimen Ana Brnabic menuduh pembangkang sebagai "geng pengganas." Pakatan pemerintah mengatakan agensi perisikan Barat cuba menggugat kestabilan Serbia dan menjatuhkan kerajaan dengan menyokong protes.Kerajaan telah cuba mengelak penelitian dengan memperkecilkan kesalahan kerajaan dalam runtuhnya stesen. Pada mulanya, kerajaan cuba mengabaikan protes, kemudian mula menggunakan kekerasan dan menuduh protes itu disusupi oleh penghasut asing.Beberapa pemerhati mengadu bahawa kegagalan untuk bertindak dan memberikan jawapan yang jelas kepada orang ramai adalah endemik kepada rasuah institusi teras Serbia.Sementara itu, pemimpin protes menyeru perhimpunan besar-besaran di ibu negara Belgrade pada 15 Mac.’ Chris Massaro, Reuters and Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Jabatan Pendidikan menjelaskan garis panduan DEI sekolah, menyatakan Bulan Sejarah Hitam tidak melanggar perintah tersebut

March 4, 2025
(SeaPRwire) - Jabatan Pendidikan menjelaskan bahawa pemerhatian seperti Bulan Sejarah Hitam tidak melanggar perintah yang memberi amaran kepada jabatan pendidikan negeri bahawa mereka mesti menghapuskan dasar kepelbagaian, ekuiti dan inklusi (DEI) atau berisiko kehilangan pembiayaan persekutuan.Bimbingan itu dikeluarkan selepas Pejabat Hak Sivil Jabatan Pendidikan menghantar surat kepada jabatan pendidikan di kesemua 50 negeri pada pertengahan Februari memaklumkan mereka tentang tarikh akhir 28 Februari untuk "Tajuk VI melarang penerima pembiayaan persekutuan daripada mendiskriminasi berdasarkan kaum, warna kulit atau asal negara," bacaan bimbingan itu, sambil menambah "Sekolah tidak boleh mengendalikan dasar atau program di bawah mana-mana nama yang memperlakukan pelajar secara berbeza berdasarkan kaum, terlibat dalam stereotaip kaum, atau mewujudkan persekitaran yang bermusuhan bagi pelajar dari kaum tertentu. "Sebagai contoh, sekolah yang mempunyai program yang memfokuskan pada minat dalam budaya, warisan, dan kawasan tertentu di dunia tidak akan dengan sendirinya melanggar Tajuk VI, dengan mengandaikan ia terbuka kepada semua pelajar tanpa mengira kaum," "Begitu juga pemerhatian pendidikan, budaya, atau sejarah – seperti Bulan Sejarah Hitam, Hari Peringatan Holocaust Antarabangsa, atau acara serupa – yang meraikan atau mengiktiraf peristiwa dan sumbangan bersejarah, dan menggalakkan kesedaran, selagi mereka tidak terlibat dalam pengecualian atau diskriminasi kaum." "Sama ada dasar atau program melanggar Tajuk VI tidak bergantung pada penggunaan terminologi khusus seperti 'kepelbagaian,' 'ekuiti,' atau 'inklusi,'" kata bimbingan itu, bertarikh 28 Februari. pada bulan Februari daripada Craig Trainor, pemangku penolong setiausaha bagi hak sivil di Jabatan Pendidikan, berkata, "Institusi pendidikan telah secara toksik mengindoktrinasi pelajar dengan premis palsu bahawa Amerika Syarikat dibina atas 'perkauman sistemik dan struktur' dan memajukan dasar dan amalan diskriminasi.""Penyokong amalan diskriminasi ini telah cuba untuk mewajarkannya lagi—terutamanya dalam tempoh empat tahun yang lalu—di bawah panji DEI ("DEI"), menyeludup stereotaip kaum dan kesedaran kaum yang jelas ke dalam latihan, pengaturcaraan dan disiplin harian," tulisnya. "Semua institusi pendidikan dinasihatkan untuk: (1) memastikan bahawa dasar dan tindakan mereka mematuhi undang-undang hak sivil yang sedia ada; (2) menghentikan semua usaha untuk mengelak larangan ke atas penggunaan kaum dengan bergantung pada proksi atau cara tidak langsung lain untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut; dan (3) menghentikan semua pergantungan pada kontraktor pihak ketiga, pusat penjelasan, atau pengagregat yang digunakan oleh institusi dalam usaha untuk mengelakkan penggunaan kaum yang dilarang," Trainor menyimpulkan. "Institusi yang gagal mematuhi undang-undang hak sivil persekutuan boleh, selaras dengan undang-undang yang terpakai, menghadapi potensi kehilangan pembiayaan persekutuan." Surat itu dikeluarkan selepas Presiden Donald Trump menandatangani perintah eksekutif yang mengarahkan agensi untuk menyediakan pelan untuk menghapuskan pembiayaan persekutuan untuk "layanan dan indoktrinasi yang menyalahi undang-undang dan diskriminasi di sekolah K-12, termasuk berdasarkan ideologi jantina dan ideologi ekuiti diskriminasi." Beliau juga menandatangani perintah untuk menamatkan program DEI di agensi persekutuan. Jabatan Pendidikan sebelum ini mengumumkan penyingkiran sebutan DEI daripada dokumen dan laman web. Jabatan itu juga meletakkan pekerja yang mengetuai inisiatif DEI bercuti dan membubarkan Majlis Kepelbagaian & Inklusi.

Ancaman Trump terhadap Kanada melonjakkan Parti Liberal Trudeau dalam tinjauan pendapat ketika tarif baharu akan bermula

March 4, 2025
` tags. (SeaPRwire) - OTTAWA, Kanada — Ketika tarif baharu mula berkuat kuasa pada hari Selasa, penganalisis mengatakan bahawa jika Parti Liberal Kanada mengekalkan kuasa, parti itu boleh berterima kasih sebahagiannya atas perubahan nasib politik itu.Sejak perasmian Trump, Parti Konservatif pembangkang rasmi Kanada – yang pernah mendahului Parti Liberal yang memerintah dengan margin yang besar – telah melihat populariti mereka dalam tinjauan pendapat umum secara beransur-ansur menurun.Satu tinjauan yang dikeluarkan minggu lepas mendapati bahawa, buat pertama kali sejak Liberal memenangi pilihan raya persekutuan terakhir pada 2021, mereka mendahului Konservatif sebanyak dua mata, dengan 38% populariti berbanding Konservatif pada 36%. Enam minggu sebelumnya, Konservatif mendahului Liberal sebanyak 26 mata. Pilihan raya umum dijangka diadakan seawal musim bunga ini oleh pengganti Trudeau, yang akan diumumkan pada hari Ahad.Darrell Bricker, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Ipsos Global Public Affairs, memberitahu Digital bahawa beliau tidak pernah melihat sebuah parti mengalami penurunan yang begitu cepat dan dramatik semasa kerjayanya selama empat dekad dalam bidang tinjauan pendapat.Beliau percaya penurunan Konservatif disebabkan oleh dua faktor., yang populariti peribadinya telah menjunam sejak beliau menjadi perdana menteri Kanada ke-23 pada 2015, akan meletak jawatan sebagai ketua kerajaan Kanada dan Parti Liberal pada 9 Mac; "Dan ancaman daripada Trump untuk menggunakan kekerasan ekonomi ke atas Kanada untuk memaksa kita tunduk dan mungkin menyerap kita sebagai negeri ke-51," jelas Bricker, mengenai tarif yang dirancang oleh presiden terhadap Kanada dan rujukan berulang beliau mengenai pengilhakan.Sepanjang Februari, Nanos Research mendapati jurang semakin sempit antara Liberal dan Konservatif, yang pada bulan sebelumnya bersedia untuk membentuk kerajaan "majoriti super" dengan seramai 240 ahli Parlimen (MP) dalam Dewan Rakyat yang diperluas dengan 343 kerusi yang berkuat kuasa selepas pilihan raya umum akan datang."Itu sudah tidak mungkin sekarang," kata Nik Nanos, pengasas dan ketua saintis data firma tinjauan pendapat Kanada itu, yang juga percaya peletakan jawatan Trudeau yang akan berlaku dan retorik Trump terhadap Kanada telah menyumbang kepada peningkatan Liberal dalam tinjauan pendapat.Presiden "telah mengubah soalan undi daripada: Adakah masanya untuk perubahan? – yang merupakan berita buruk bagi Liberal – kepada siapa yang boleh menangani Donald Trump dengan terbaik, ancaman eksistensi baharu kepada ekonomi Kanada?" kata Nanos.Beliau menjelaskan bahawa Ketua Pembangkang Rasmi Konservatif Kanada, Pierre Poilievre dan partinya memainkan peranan dalam peningkatan Liberal dengan "menunjukkan mereka sedikit tidak peka" dalam memberi tumpuan kepada cukai kerajaan Liberal ke atas pelepasan karbon dan berikrar untuk menghapuskannya sementara rakyat Kanada semakin bimbang tentang ancaman Trump. "Dalam tinjauan balik, apabila Konservatif mempunyai kelebihan 27 mata dalam tinjauan pendapat kami, ia tidak ada kaitan dengan Pierre Poilievre yang kuat atau disukai, atau Konservatif menjadi ahli strategi yang cemerlang," kata Nanos. "Ia semua berkaitan dengan ketidaksukaan terhadap Justin Trudeau dan orang ramai mahukan perubahan dan Konservatif menjadi agen perubahan."Menurut tinjauan Ipsos, 86% daripada 1,000 responden berkata bahawa mereka mahukan pilihan raya umum "segera" untuk mempunyai kerajaan persekutuan "dengan mandat yang kuat" untuk menangani ancaman tarif Trump. Bricker berkata kelebihan Liberal dalam tinjauan pendapat, terutamanya di wilayah Ontario dan Quebec yang paling ramai penduduk di Kanada, berbanding Konservatif malah boleh melebar sekiranya , bekas gabenor bank pusat England dan Kanada dan peneraju dalam perlumbaan kepimpinan Liberal, menggantikan Trudeau sebagai perdana menteri.Pakar tinjauan Kanada yang berpengalaman, Angus Reid berkata tinjauan terbaru oleh syarikatnya mendapati bahawa 51% berkata Carney dan Liberal paling sesuai untuk memperbaiki hubungan dengan A.S., termasuk mengenai tarif, berbanding 35% yang memilih , yang dilihat oleh ramai rakyat Kanada sebagai memegang "agenda ala Trump."Dari selatan sempadan, presiden telah "menghakis sokongan Konservatif kerana ia mengubah sepenuhnya dinamik politik di Kanada, mengubah sepenuhnya apa yang boleh dianggap sebagai soalan undi yang paling penting iaitu tentang menghapuskan sebahagian daripada beban dari era Trudeau," jelas Reid, pengasas dan pengerusi Angus Reid Institute."Sekarang ia adalah tentang mempertahankan kedaulatan dan ekonomi negara."Satu lagi tinjauan Angus Reid mendapati bahawa dengan Carney sebagai pemimpin Liberal, partinya hampir terikat pada 44% dengan Konservatif, pada 45% mengenai niat mengundi. Di Quebec, Parti Liberal yang diketuai Carney menikmati 31% sokongan berbanding Konservatif pada 22%.Reid berkata isu pengilhakan dan tarif terutamanya bergema dengan warga Quebec lebih daripada mana-mana wilayah lain di Kanada.Cabaran selanjutnya Carney untuk Poilievre ialah bekas itu "di atas kertas, kelihatan seperti seorang Konservatif," kata Nanos."Lelaki itu bekerja dalam sektor perbankan dan sektor swasta, seperti Goldman Sachs, dan mempengerusikan, sehingga baru-baru ini, perusahaan besar seperti Bloomberg dan Brookfield [Asset Management]. Dia berjalan dan bercakap seperti seorang Konservatif."Carney, seorang ahli ekonomi yang berpendidikan Oxford yang tidak pernah memegang jawatan yang dipilih, dijangka mengadakan pilihan raya mengejut sekiranya beliau dipilih sebagai pengganti Trudeau.Jika angka tinjauan pendapat terus meningkat memihak kepada Liberal, mereka bukan sahaja boleh memenangi undi nasional dalam pertandingan sedemikian tetapi membentuk kerajaan majoriti, tambah Reid. Pada masa ini, Liberal mempunyai 153 Ahli Parlimen di Dewan Rakyat dengan 338 kerusi, yang membentuk kerajaan minoriti.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Paus Franciscus alami 2 krisis pernafasan akut, kata Vatican

March 4, 2025
(SeaPRwire) - mengalami dua krisis pernafasan akut pada hari Isnin, situasi perubatan yang kompleks yang kurang berbahaya berbanding bronkospasma Jumaat lalu, umum Vatican.Krisis pernafasan itu "disebabkan oleh pengumpulan lendir endobronkial yang ketara dan bronkospasma berikutnya," menurut .

GA-ASI Flies Government Reference Autonomy Stack at Orange Flag 25-1 ACN Newswire

GA-ASI Flies Government Reference Autonomy Stack at Orange Flag 25-1

March 4, 2025
SAN DIEGO, CA, Mar 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) achieved another major milestone in the development of Unmanned Combat Air Vehicles (UCAVs) by flying U.S. government-provided autonomy software aboard a company-owned MQ-20 Avenger®. The demonstration was part of the Air Force Test Center's all-domain test series called Orange Flag 25-1, which took place Feb. 19-21 at Edwards Air Force Base, California.The demonstration included the use of a government-provided Pilot Vehicle Interface (PVI), showcasing GA-ASI's commitment to advancing its UCAV ecosystem through collaboration with partners and government entities and integrating cutting-edge technologies. Avenger is a jet-powered UAS used extensively by GA-ASI as a test bed for future Autonomous Collaborative Platforms.GA-ASI also demonstrated the ability to rapidly swap between autonomy systems midflight over Proliferated Low Earth Orbit (PLEO) satellites utilizing an autonomy product from Shield AI.Orange Flag 25-1 is part of the larger Orange Flag Evaluation and Demonstration Event series. This event brought together various stakeholders to test and validate advanced aerospace technologies in realistic operational scenarios.The government-provided autonomy software - known as a reference autonomy stack - was integrated into the GA-ASI Avenger and demonstrated autonomous flight operation capabilities focused on conducting air-to-air engagements. The government-provided PVI enabled seamless control and monitoring of the autonomy stack, highlighting the interoperability and flexibility of GA-ASI's UCAV ecosystem. The Shield AI stack demonstrated autonomy skills for safe administrative phases of flight.What the flights proved was that GA-ASI aircraft can quickly go from company-written software, to government-provided, to other vendors' software as needed. This reinforces that the new generations of GA-ASI's UCAVs can seamlessly get upgrades as fast as developers finish them. Just as a mobile phone can get new and better features with each update, so too can new UCAVs get more capable and more versatile."This demonstration marks a significant achievement in our ongoing efforts to operationalize autonomy for UCAVs," said GA-ASI Vice President of Advanced Programs Michael Atwood. "Flying the government reference autonomy stack at Orange Flag 25-1 and utilizing the government-provided PVI underscores our commitment to delivering robust and adaptable autonomy solutions for the warfighter. We especially appreciate and salute the support we received from the 309th Software Engineering Group."The successful flight at Orange Flag 25-1 further validates GA-ASI's dedication to maturing its open standards-based autonomy software ecosystem. By adhering to government-owned and maintained standards, GA-ASI ensures rapid integration of best-of-breed capabilities from third-party providers, enhancing the overall operational effectiveness of UCAV platforms.GA-ASI continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing autonomy for UCAVs through a series of flight tests and collaborations with government and industry partners. These efforts are aimed at developing an autonomy infrastructure that enables rapid integration and validation of tactical software applications while maintaining safety of flight and providing warfighters with the most advanced capabilities possible.

NTT and DOCOMO Successfully Demonstrates On-Demand Unified Control of Computing Services Through Network and Service Integration JCN Newswire

NTT and DOCOMO Successfully Demonstrates On-Demand Unified Control of Computing Services Through Network and Service Integration

March 4, 2025
TOKYO, Mar 3, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NTT Corporation (NTT) and NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that they have successfully demonstrated the effectiveness and feasibility of In-Network Computing (INC),*1 an architecture that integrates and coordinates computing resources for services such as AI and mobile networks to enable end-to-end quality control, ensuring low latency and bandwidth usage. The demonstration was based on the “Inclusive Core”*2 concept for the 6G/IOWN era originally announced by NTT Corporation in a press release issued in October 2023.During this demonstration, the GSMA-defined Open Gateway*3 / CAMARA API*4 was utilized to develop and implement technologies for controlling network routing based on mobile network conditions. Additionally, new technologies were developed and implemented that enable connection and coordinated control between user communication devices and servers positioned near the user. These will allow on-demand computing services to be provided according to user needs. As a result, the demonstration confirmed that quality requirements spanning both network and computing domains can be rapidly achieved through API control based on user requests. Application of the INC architecture in real-time video data transmission and AI analysis showed that it could achieve accuracy of 90%, which is the AI model's performance limit.This proof of concept was conducted in collaboration with Nokia Corporation. The results will be showcased at Nokia's booth during Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2025, being held from March 3 to 6, 2025, where it will be presented as an example of next-generation network architecture.1. BackgroundDiscussions on international standardization for 6G networks are underway among various countries and organizations. 3GPP, a standardization body in which leading global telecom operators, network vendors and research institutions are participating, plans to commence the development of technical specifications such as architecture and protocols this year. Among the anticipated 6G use cases are new services such as immersive XR, artificial intelligence / machine learning, and sensing. To deliver these services without compromising performance, 6G-era networks will need to accelerate not only conventional communication processes but also the data processing of applications.In response to these challenges, and in the context of international standardization discussions, NTT and DOCOMO, along with many other companies, are considering INC as a core network technology to support 6G-era services. Another key feature of INC is its capability to facilitate the use of 6G services even on simplified devices, by supporting computational processing within the network.2. ISAP*5 OverviewNTT and DOCOMO are dedicated to the research and development of ISAP as the base platform for INC. ISAP is a platform that integrates with mobile networks to deliver computing services, and features the following technical characteristics:- It allows the configuring of computing services in response to each device's mobile network connection status.- It adapts computing services based on changes in cloud-based service usage.- It enables the controlling of computing functions in line with the operational state and attributes of both the mobile network and cloud-based services.3. INC architecture and expansion of existing architecture specificationsTraditionally, mobile networks have focused on managing device connectivity and mobility, primarily handling lower-layer connections from user terminals, through the mobile communication system, to external networks. However, with the evolution and expansion of high-performance services such as XR and edge computing, there is growing demand for higher-layer or application-specific requirements in mobile networks, a trend that is expected to become even more pronounced in the 6G era. Against this backdrop, NTT and DOCOMO have proposed an INC architecture that integrates computing functions into the User Plane Function (UPF).*6 Using an API to interface with core network control, NTT and DOCOMO explored methods to simultaneously set up computing functions and control device network connectivity, identifying necessary specification enhancements.The proposed architecture has three highlights:1. It derives and resolves control policies for communication and computation based on a service attributes and requirements profiles provided via an API.2. It coordinates slicing and communication quality control aligned with the activation of computing functions on the UPF.3. It adds the capability to configure communication sessions and computing features in the control interface for the UPF.4. Proof of Concept OverviewThe proof of concept was conducted by deploying 3GPP-compliant mobile core network on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This network was managed under Nokia's product, a Network as Code platform designed for API management and routing, as defined in GSMA Open Gateway and Linux Foundation CAMARA projects. Within this mobile core network, a new control function was introduced to handle the mobile core network, enabling it to configure communication routes to the ISAP platform in response to computing service activation requests received via the Network as Code platform. An integrated control mechanism was implemented on a container platform equipped with accelerators*7 such as DPUs and GPUs. This mechanism simultaneously activates both communication and computing services when a computing service startup request is issued.During the demonstration, the team verified that mobile connectivity can be provided in response to CAMARA API-based computing service startup requests, confirming the feasibility of on-demand computing services for mobile devices in a practical setting. Additionally, an AI-powered video analysis application was operated within this environment and by linking the computing services with the mobile network to reduce data exchange latency and jitter between devices and servers, it was confirmed that the accuracy rate—57% under conventional architectures—improved to 90%, reaching the performance limit of the AI model.5. Role of each companyNTT: Conducts overall architecture and system design and plans the demonstration, researches and prototypes the Inclusive Core and ISAP, and provides on-premise / cloud demonstration environments.NTT DOCOMO, INC.: Leverages its expertise in global standard specifications for mobile communication systems and leads discussions on methods for mobile network quality and routing control in this demonstration.Nokia Corporation: Offers 3GPP-compliant Core SaaS on the cloud and provides the Network as Code API management platform, compliant with GSMA Open Gateway and CAMARA.6. OutlookNTT and DOCOMO will continue to explore In-Network Computing capabilities with the aim of enabling computing services that work seamlessly with mobile networks in the 6G era. This will involve progressing technical studies and the implementation of solutions requiring high stability and low latency. Going forward, in partnership with Nokia, NTT and DOCOMO plan to expand their collaboration with telecom operators, network equipment and device manufacturers, cloud providers, and service operators. The goal is to advance INC research and development in order to facilitate service deployment, while also contributing to global standardization discussions scheduled for this year, including those led by 3GPP covering 6G architecture this year.(1) A technical concept whereby application-layer processing is delegated to data transfer functions within the network. This approach reduces latency and device power consumption, while delivering high-performance, feature-rich services. By offloading information processing to network-based devices such as switches, it also alleviates the load on terminals.(2) A network architecture proposed by NTT for the 6G/IOWN era. It enables various forms of convergence and cooperation over the network, thereby facilitating the fusion of computing and networking required by next-generation use cases such as AI-integrated communications and cyber-physical systems. For more details, refer to New windowhttps://www.rd.ntt/ns/inclusivecore/whitepaper_ver1.html (only available in Japanese)(3) A GSMA project aimed at establishing common carrier APIs for exposing carrier network functionalities. As of 2024, 62 mobile network operators are participating, working toward the global commercialization of these emerging carrier APIs.(4) An open-source project under the Linux Foundation that develops common carrier API specifications, enabling applications developers to access carrier network function worldwide regardless of region or operator.(5) As an In-Network Computing platform, ISAP intermediates the information processing required by services running on terminals and in the cloud. By rapidly synchronizing and coordinating both, it orchestrates a cascading processing environment on network-based hardware that is tailored to each communication context and service environment. This enables users to enjoy flexible service experiences without being limited by their devices or network conditions and allows service providers to reach a broader user base.(6) A component of the 5G network that handles data transfer, traffic routing, and other related functions.(7) Refers to hardware or software that enhances computing performance. In this demonstration, “accelerators” specifically refer to hardware accelerators such as Data Processing Units (DPUs) and Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).About NTTNTT contributes to a sustainable society through the power of innovation.

Perseteruan Trump dengan Zelenskyy mengingatkan penghinaan Obama, Biden terhadap Netanyahu Berita

Perseteruan Trump dengan Zelenskyy mengingatkan penghinaan Obama, Biden terhadap Netanyahu

March 3, 2025
(SeaPRwire) - JERUSALEM, Israel - Reaksi ahli-ahli parlimen Demokrat terhadap pertengkaran awam minggu lepas antara dan Presiden Ukraine, Volodmyr Zelenskyy mencetuskan kritikan hebat, namun perbandingan tentang bagaimana Perdana Menteri Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu dilayan oleh Presiden Joe Biden dan Barack Obama telah menyebabkan pengkritik membantah.Bekas Presiden Obama dan Biden secara terbuka memalukan Netanyahu, menurut laporan media, dan pemimpin Israel itu, berbeza dengan Zelenskyy, tidak mendapat sokongan yang sama daripada banyak pemimpin Eropah dan media utama.Presiden Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, Dan Diker, memberitahu Digital, "Soalan sebenarnya ialah mengapa media antarabangsa, kuasa Eropah dan rangkaian sosial kurang bersimpati terhadap Israel dan PM Netanyahu semasa pentadbiran Obama dan Biden, menegur dan malah memalukan Netanyahu semasa dan di antara lawatan White House, berbeza dengan simpati antarabangsa yang serta-merta dan meluas terhadap Zelenskyy berikutan pertembungan secara langsung dengan kelajuan 100 mph dan teguran oleh Presiden Trump dan VP Vance?"Diker menyambung, dengan berkata, "Disiarkan di seluruh dunia, kita ingat bagaimana Obama 'membuang' delegasi yang diketuai Netanyahu ke White House pada tahun 2010 dan kempen tekanan politik maksimum keseluruhan pentadbiran Biden untuk memaksa Israel mengalah kepada tuntutan Amerika."Terdapat persamaan yang ketara antara kedua-dua negara — Ukraine dan Israel — yang berperang melawan rejim anti-demokratik. Israel telah melancarkan perang eksistensi pelbagai penjuru terhadap proksi rejim Iran (Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis dan pasukan lain) sejak Oktober 2023. Rusia menyerang Ukraine lebih tiga tahun lalu dan menyerap sebahagian wilayah negara itu. Ukraine sedang berjuang untuk hidupnya.Namun, satu perbezaan utama ialah kemarahan terhadap pertelingkahan White House dengan Zelenskyy tidak dicerminkan dengan cara yang sama dalam pandangan umum selepas Biden dan Obama melancarkan serangan lisan, termasuk kata-kata kesat, terhadap Netanyahu.Selepas ucapan State of the Union 2024, Biden tertangkap oleh mikrofon panas di House floor, di mana Biden berkata beliau dan Netanyahu akan berunding tidak lama lagi.Biden memberi amaran kepada Israel bahawa menyerang Rafah akan melintasi "garis merah." Israel mengingkari Biden dan mengadakan beberapa yang ditahan oleh organisasi pengganas Hamas di Rafah.Selepas Israel memasuki Rafah, Biden dilaporkan berkata mengenai Netanyahu, Biden "menyusahkan" dan berkata "dia telah membunuh saya kebelakangan ini."Menurut kolumnis Politico, Jonathan Martin, Biden menggelar Netanyahu sebagai Serangan Biden yang kelihatan tidak henti-hentinya terhadap Netanyahu berterusan dengan langkah pertahanan diri Israel terhadap organisasi pengganas Lubnan Hezbollah dan rakan strategik utamanya, Republik Islam Iran. Kerajaan A.S. telah melabelkan Hezbollah sebagai entiti pengganas dan mengklasifikasikan Iran sebagai penaja negara terburuk keganasan di dunia.Reuters dalam sebuah buku oleh wartawan Bob Woodward, menyatakan bahawa Biden kerap menuduh Netanyahu tidak mempunyai strategi dan menjerit "Bibi, apa f----?" kepadanya pada bulan Julai selepas serangan Israel berhampiran Beirut dan di Iran.Pentadbiran Obama meletakkan asas untuk mendelegitimasi Netanyahu dan mewujudkan "daylight" antara Israel dan Amerika Syarikat, hujah pakar mengenai hubungan A.S.-Israel.Obama untuk jurugambar semasa lawatan pemimpin Israel ke White House pada tahun 2010 dan mengadakan makan malam peribadi tanpa perdana menteri, yang dikatakan sebagai pelanggaran adat.Apabila ditanya tentang dakwaan hubungan yang penuh konflik dengan Netanyahu, , "Saya fikir dia berurusan dengan situasi yang sangat kompleks di kawasan kejiranan yang sangat sukar. Dan apa yang telah saya kongsikan secara konsisten dengannya ialah minat saya untuk bekerjasama dengannya -- bukan dengan tujuan yang bertentangan -- supaya kita dapat mencapai keamanan yang akan memastikan keselamatan Israel selama beberapa dekad akan datang."Dan itu bermakna beberapa pilihan yang sukar. Dan akan ada masanya dia dan saya mengadakan perbincangan yang mantap tentang jenis pilihan yang perlu dibuat."Pentadbiran Obama sering menggunakan pegawai kerajaan tanpa nama untuk menyalurkan pandangan Obama, menurut pengkritik. Pada tahun 2014, Jeffery Goldberg dari majalah Atlantic melaporkan bahawa seorang pegawai pentadbiran Obama yang tidak dinamakan menggelar Netanyahu "chickens---" mengenai usaha untuk mendapatkan perjanjian damai dengan Palestin.Hubungan tegang antara Obama dan Netanyahu mencapai kemuncak pada akhir penggal Obama pada Disember 2016. Dakwaan pengabaian Israel oleh Obama di Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu dengan membenarkan Majlis Keselamatan Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu untuk menegur Israel mendorong Netanyahu untuk menggelar tindakan itu Resolusi Majlis Keselamatan PBB 2016 mengutuk Israel kerana membina komuniti Yahudi di Tebing Barat, wilayah alkitabiah bersejarah yang dikenali di Israel sebagai Judea dan Samaria.Ucapan Netanyahu kepada Kongres A.S. pada tahun 2015 (untuk membantah perjanjian nuklear Obama dengan Iran) dan pada tahun 2024 (untuk mempertahankan perang Israel terhadap Hamas yang disokong Iran) membangkitkan kemarahan pentadbiran Obama dan Biden.Eugene Kontorovich, felo penyelidik kanan di Heritage Foundation, memberitahu Digital, "Demokrat berang selama bertahun-tahun kerana Netanyahu berani mempunyai dasar yang berbeza daripada Obama. Dengan standard ini, pertengkaran terbuka dan berdebat Zelenskyy dengan Presiden Trump dan VP Vance pada acara akhbar sepatutnya menghantui bekas pelawak itu. Walau bagaimanapun, Presiden Trump telah menyatakan kesediaan untuk melibatkan diri semula."'
