Sri Lanka well poised to export computer software
Information and Communication Technology plays a vibrant and extremely useful role in the lives of people today and due to the vast improvements in he ICT, world is getting closer and access to knowledge is possible and easier.Jayantha De Silva, President, Computer Software Exporters Association of Sri Lanka, what the computer software industry in Sri Lanka needs is persistent visibility locally and globally, with market access and marketing support.

Computer Software generates jokes for children who use computer speaking aids
Computer software scientists at a group of universities in Scotland have developed a program that generates jokes for children who need computerised speech aids.
The System to Augment Non-speakers Dialogue Using Puns, or Standup, lets children choose words or compound words from the software’s dictionary that it then puts together into joke templates.
It compares the selected words to other words to check for phonetic similarity and concepts to link the words together to make puns.
A 10-week trial at a school in Glasgow has gone well, with the children taking to it “like fish to water”, according to one of the scientists. |
