Tata Motors unveils India's first bus to run on bio-methane fuel

The Tata LPO 1613 bio-methane fuelled bus is already in operation in Pune, and Tata has unveiled three variants of its bio-CNG engines alongside this one.

Continuing on its endeavours to develop clean emission commercial vehicles, Tata Motors has unveiled India's first bio-methane powered bus. Alongside, the company also showed off three bio-fuel combustion engines for LCV, ICV and MCV bus variants. These buses will contribute to Tata Motors' Smart Cities initiative, by including connected car infrastructure, reducing emissions and contributing to wet garbage disposals.

Tata Motors has previously shown its intent behind clean energy vehicles at the launch of its Starbus Hybrid. The company had simultaneously unveiled electric and hydrogen fuel cell variants of its buses, all of which came fitted with connected infrastructure and modern amenities like infotainment systems, GPS and USB ports. With the new bio-methane engines, Tata Motors' lead variant for clean energy commercial vehicles is now the Tata LPO-1613 bio-fuel bus that complies with 5.7 SGI NA BS-IV IOBD-II emission standards.

"We are delighted to present yet another product with innovation in alternate fuel technologies, to cater to the need for a greener country. The use of Bio-CNG will contribute in a positive manner to the Smart Cities proposition of keeping them clean and is a good option for wet garbage management," said Mr. Girish Wagh, Head of the Commercial Vehicles Business at Tata Motors. It now remains to be seen how the smarter, cleaner buses are rolled out on to Indian roads.

Hardware Upgrade: How To Install New RAM

RAM is one of those upgrades everyone seems to skimp on when buying a PC, only to later wish for more. Regretting your underpowered memory purchase? Here’s how to speed up your machine by installing some additional memory. Memory is often one the critical bottlenecks on a PC, so faster, larger stores of RAM can go a long way to making your PC perform better and with more stability. It’s not hard, even for beginner geeks. Crack open that PC in today’s hardware upgrade! Identifying and Buying Your New RAM (The Hard Part) Your RAM is likely installed in these slots on your motherboard, called the DIMM slots. This motherboard has room for six sticks of memory. Note the pins and how the RAM lines up with them—important to note to install properly. The median is off center to show you clearly which direction to orient them. If you’re strong, you can probably force them in backwards, but computers don’t really respond well to that kind of bullying. ...

How to Find Out Which Build and Version of Windows 10 You Have

You may not have really thought about Windows build numbers in the past unless it was part of your job to do so. But they’ve become more important with Windows 10. Here’s how to find out what build—and edition and version—of Windows 10 you’re running.Windows has always used build numbers. They represent significant updates to Windows. Traditionally, most people have referred to Windows based on the major, named version they’re using—Windows Vista, 7, 8, and so on. Within those versions, we also had service packs to refer to: Windows 7 Service Pack 1, for example. With Windows 10, things have changed a bit. For one thing, Microsoft claims there will be no more new versions of Windows—Windows 10 is here to stay. Microsoft has also done away with service packs, instead moving to releasing two big builds each year and giving them fun names—the next big one being the Creator’s Update in Spring, 2017. If you really need to refer to a specific version of Windows...

What Is Memory Compression in Windows 10?

Windows 10 uses memory compression to store more data in your system’s memory than it otherwise could. If you visit the Task Manager and look at your memory usage details, you’ll likely see that some of your memory is “compressed”. Here’s what that means. What Is Memory Compression? Memory compression is a new feature in Windows 10, and is not available on Windows 7 and 8. However, both Linux and Apple’s macOS also use memory compression. Traditionally, if you had 8 GB of RAM and applications had 9 GB of stuff to store in that RAM, at least 1 GB would have to be “paged out” and stored in the page file on your computer’s disk. Accessing data in the page file is very slow compared to RAM. With memory compression, some of that 9 GB of data can be compressed (just like a Zip file or other compressed data can be shrunk down) and kept in RAM. For example, you might have 6 GB of uncompressed data and 3 GB of compressed data that actually takes up 1.5 GB in RA...
