One of the major beneficiaries of the successful balance of Android is no doubt Samsung is looking to grow its market share and even begins to overtake Nokia in several markets (last week we learned that Samsung is already the leader in Europe and fight head to head with Nokia in Argentina, to name a few).

So, even though from Samsung continue betting at the same time its own operating system Bada, it makes sense to have a space for developers Samsung Android (as has Motorola MOTODEV ).

Thus was born Samsung Android Developer Forum ( developer.samsung.com / android ) in order to provide “additional support and guidance” to the developers of Android applications (and was the same space Samsung’s Windows Mobile, Java and Bada).

“By providing a single destination for developers working with Android mobile devices from Samsung, the forum has rich content with news and updates to developers, while active discussion spaces offer technical advice and support without comparison”, detailed in the announcement official.

The Samsung Android Developer Forum provides development tools to aid developers “working on complex projects” including SDK plug-ins for augmented reality and location-based services, sensor simulation, Remote Test Lab (RTL) to test the apps remotely on a real device controlled by Samsung, SDKs, video tutorials and hardware upgrades and software.

“The Android Developer Forum Samsung Android enables developers worldwide expand their reach and achieve even higher levels of quality when designing for Samsung devices based on Android, as consumers continue to experience high standards of Android applications available in Samsung Apps, our app store ” said Kang-hyun Kwon, Senior Vice President of Media Solution Center at Samsung Electronics.

This certificate includes information on the energy objective to assess and compare their energy efficiency. It is intended to foster the promotion of energy efficient buildings and investments in energy savings.

Our company produces the reports needed to obtain certification and label energy efficiency projects in new construction or rehabilitation of buildings existing in compliance with current legal requirements. We use programs CALENER-VYP and CALENER-GT to develop our reports, as required by law.

The energy performance certificate is required in new buildings and modifications, alterations or renovations of existing buildings with a floor area exceeding 1,000 m² which is renewed more than 25% of their enclosures.

The certificate must contain at least the following information: identification of the building, provided the energy regulations applicable at the time of construction , indicating the option chosen and the software used to obtain the energy efficiency rating, description of the characteristics building’s energy, energy efficiency rating of the building expressed by label and description of the tests, checks and inspections carried out during the execution of the building to establish the conformity of the information contained in the certificate of energy efficiency in the finished building.

The energy performance certificate has a validity of 10 years and the competent organ of the Autonomous Community has relevant inspections to verify and monitor compliance with the energy performance of buildings.

As in all our projects we keep you informed of the development thereof and any impacts that may occur, and strictly comply with the agreed deadlines.

More information on energy efficiency on the link below the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade.

Energy efficiency is the intelligent use of energy. Energy sources are finite, and therefore, its correct use is presented as a need for this so that we can enjoy them in the future.

Be more efficient does not mean giving up our comfort level and quality of life. It is simply take a number of responsible habits, actions and investments in technology and management explained in Twenergy.com periodically. With this information and advice, consumers can learn how to live a sustainable lifestyle by providing the same services.
But practicing a more responsible and intelligent energy we consume is everyone’s job.

While it is true that the action of a single person is barely noticeable, the overall impact it is important when several people who use resources efficiently. If you want to be one of them, join Twenergy and start right now to save money and energy.

Samsung has already launched its machinery at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona to present the Galaxy Beam, a phone Androdid 2.3 which includes HD projector in which is an updated model with pico projector presented at the Mobile World Congress 2010.

Apart from the projector, the other features of the phone are quite normal. The Samsung Galaxy Beam, has a four-inch screen and a resolution of 800 × 480, a 1-GHz dual-core, five-megapixel camera front and rear 1.3-megapixel. In the storage area has 8GB of internal memory and a microSD card slot.

As you will see the specifications are nothing innovative, but the fact of having a 15 lumens projector that can project high definition to an area 15 meters wide, makes it an extremely unique phone and really useful for many different segments market.

Certification of building energy efficiency is a requirement under the Directive 2002/91/EC.

Certification Regarding Energy, partially transposing the directive into Spanish law by Royal Decree 47/2007 of 19 January, which approves the basic procedure for certification of energy efficiency of new buildings. For existing buildings is expected to draw up another RD prior to January 2009.

General register of recognized documents for the certification of energy efficiency

According to Article 3 of Royal Decree creates the Register in order to facilitate compliance with this basic method. Is attached to the General Secretariat of Energy, Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade, with public and informative.

Similarly, Article 14 of the same, establishing the Advisory Commission for the certification of energy efficiency of buildings as permanent collegial body that reports functionally to the General Secretariat of Energy, Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade. Its mission is to advise relevant ministries on matters related to energy certification.

This Royal Decree 47/2007 of January 19, will enter into force three months after publication is voluntary application for a period of six months. From that time (October 31, 2007), building design works of applicant shall meet the regulations established in this RD.

In this certificate, and through energy efficiency label will be assigned to each building a Class Energy efficiency, which will vary from class A, for more energy efficient, Class G, for the less efficient.

To obtain the rating scale in our country has made a specific study which details the procedure used to obtain the limits of the scale depending on the type of building considered and the climate of the locality. This procedure took into consideration the scales are weighed today in other countries and, in particular, the proposal contained in document CEN prEN 15217 “Energy performance of buildings: Methods for expresing energy preformance and certification of buildings for energy”.

Determining the level of energy efficiency for a building can be done using two options:

The general option, of a performance based, through a computer program, and the simplified option of prescriptive, developing the methodology for calculating the energy efficiency rating in an indirect way.
The choice is generally based on the use of software to meet the requirements of the calculation methodology given in RD 47/2007. We have developed a computer program called Calener reference, promoted by the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade through the IDEA and the Department of Architecture and Housing Policy of the Ministry of Housing.
This program has two versions:

CALENER_VYP, Housing Building and Small and Medium-Tertiary (Stand alone).
Calener_GT for large buildings in the tertiary sector.

Using software other than the reference is subject to their approval by the Advisory Committee on Energy Certification of Buildings. This approval shall be in accordance with the criteria set forth in Exhibit Acceptance of Terms Alternative Procedures and Calener Leader.

The simplified option is to obtain a kind of efficiency from the compliance of the affected buildings of some requirements for both the building envelope as thermal systems for heating, cooling, domestic hot water and lighting. All these requirements are called technical solution.

To use the simplified option requires the proposal of specific solutions that have the status of recognized documents after their approval by the Advisory Committee on Energy Certification of Buildings.

This approval shall be in accordance with the criteria set out in the document in terms for Alternative Procedures. Simplified energy certification.

It is available a draft of a simplified procedure applicable to residential buildings which comply strictly with the requirements of CTE-HE.

The Korean company is developing the Galaxy S III with an eye on the new iPhone 5 which is about to leave and of course the new smartphones being developed by Nokia with Windows Phone. According to the specifications that have been leaked, this is the first terminal to be quad-core processor.

Samsung aims to lead the global mobile phone market and it is preparing a super smartphone to hit the market next year. According to a filter that collects website Androidandme , the team will improve significantly compared to the Samsung Galaxy S II.

Possible features
The Galaxy S III processor will have a Quad Core 2.0 GHz with 1.5 GB of RAM, ie, we have a team able to work twice as fast as his little brother. The dimensions are expected to be smaller as the weight and the screen could exceed 4.5 inches. In the multimedia section will include a 10 megapixel camera capable of recording high-definition (Full HD 1080p) at 60 frames per second.

Of course also incorporate NFC technology is that in the future will pay our usual mobile phone. As for the operating system, surely see the new version of Android known as Ice cream sandwich .

The big question is the battery, the computer with this processor should carry more than 2000 mAh to be able to withstand at least 24 hours at full capacity.

Future mobile
In 2012 the stars are the new Windows Phone from Nokia, the iPhone 5 and all that come to hand Android Samsung, LG, Motorola, HTC, Sony Ericsson and Google with ultrafast processors and screens over 4 inches. Nor should we lose sight of RIM is required to continue to innovate but want to lose market share.

The number one manufacturer in the world of cell phones, the Finnish Nokia, is in crisis, surrounded by innovative competitors are grabbing market share, today recognized its president Stephen Elop.
The company is in ” a burning platform “surrounded by a” violent fire “fed by numerous hot spots, the director admitted in a memo to workers to describe the difficult situation in which it is Nokia.

Is expected in the coming days Nokia announced sweeping changes to address the crisis, while Elop plans to meet with investors in London on Friday to raise the new strategy, reported the Finnish daily Helsingin Sanomat.

Elop, who took over the company last September, is under considerable pressure because investors expect Nokia to start production of new phones, more competitive than currently available models.

In the last quarter of 2010, net profit for the giant Finn fell to 745 million euros (about 1.021 million dollars), against 948 million euros (1.300 billion) a year earlier, according to its annual report.

Nokia is scheduled to issue its new strategy, as it has been stagnant for more than two years due to the great advance of Apple’s iPhone and phones using the multifunction scanning system Google Android.

According to a recent study, took the throne Android obsolete Symbian, used by the Finnish system, in the last quarter of last year.
