SK하이닉스, 6월부터 삼성에 공급시작
SK하이닉스가 늦어도 6월부터 삼성전자에 모바일 디램과 낸드 메모리를 공급할 예정으로 알려졌다. 공급량은 삼성전자의 무선수요의 약 5분의 1 가까이 될 것이라고 관계자들은 전했다. 이미 지난주, 삼성전자 IM부문의 신종균 사장은 삼성이 하이닉스에 공급요청을 할 수도 있다고 밝힌바 있다. 업계 관계자들에 따르면 이미 생산물량까지 확정이 된 상태이며, 6월 출고만 기다리고 있다고 전했다. 현재 스마트폰 세계 1위 업체로서 27일 갤럭시 S4를 세계 60개국에 전격 출시한 삼성전자는 갤럭시 S 시리즈의 고공판매 덕분에 메모리수요가 부족한 행복한 고민에 빠져있다. 하반기에 출시될 갤럭시 노트 3와 3분기라는 계절적인 수요부족 요인과 맞물려 공급을 맞추기 더욱 어려워질 것으로 전문가들은 예측했다. 세계 1,2위 메모리 업체간의 보기드문 파트너십으로 인해 SK하이닉스로부터 메모리를 공급 받고 있는 애플은 당분간 가격조정에 대한 압박에 시달릴 전망이다.

Pyongyang slams Seoul for 'insulting' founder's birthday
North Korea criticized South Korea on Sunday for "insulting" celebrations marking the birth of its founder, as the world keeps a close watch on what the North's next move will be after weeks of bellicose threats.

N. Korea's leader not seen in public for 2 weeks
North Korea's young leader Kim Jong-un has not been seen in public over the past two weeks, setting off speculation that he might be tempted to tone down fiery threats of provocations, according to sources and an analyst on Sunday. Kim's absence from the public eye, judged by the North's choreographed media reports, was not unusual, but this month's disappearance from public view comes amid heightened tensions on the Korean Peninsula as Pyongyang is expected to launch a mid-range ballistic

볼보, 자전거 충돌 방지 시스템 선보여
스웨덴 자동차 제조사인 볼보가 차도로 들어오는 자전거의 움직임을 감지해 충돌이 예상되면 차를 자동 정지시키는 새로운 시스템을 선보였다.현재 중국 회사 소유인 볼보사는 이번 제네바 모터 쇼에서 2010년 보행자 감자 제동 장비를 응용한 새로운 안전 시스템을 발표했다.차의 창문에 설치된 레이더, 앞 유리와 후방카메라 사이에 설치돼 있는 카메라가 보행자와 자전거의 움직임을 동시에 감지할 수 있다고 볼보사는 말했다.볼보의 영국지사의 대변인은 자사 연구진들이 지나가는 동물들도 감지할 수 있는 시스템을 연구 중이라고 밝혔다.또한 현재 볼보 연구진들은 동물들의 행동을 연구하기 위해서 오후에는 동물들과 시간을 보내고 있다고 밝혔다.연구의 목적은 “자동차가 말, 사슴과 같은 동물들과의 충돌을 피하는 시스템을 만들기 위해서”라고 그는 BBC에서 말했다. 그러나 “아직 그 장비의 데뷔 시기는 정해지지 않았다”고 덧붙였다.볼보사는 자전거 충돌 방지 시스템으로 자사 자동차가 대당 최소 2,700 달러 정도
