一 | 据路透社报道，五角大楼周五表示，微软公司（Microsoft Corp.）赢得了价值17.6亿美元的五年期合同，为国防部、海岸警卫队和情报部门提供商业服务。合同的细节仍不清楚。    A lecturer in medicine has blamed Britain's exit from the European Union for a shortage of some medicines.,Dr. Bharat Pankhania, a senior clinical lecturer at The University of Exeter Medical School, told Sputnik that the recent shortage of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and some other drugs — including insulin, antibiotics and antidepressants — was thanks to the UK leaving the bloc two years ago.,"There is a failure of authorities in the United Kingdom to what we call in English, address the elephant in the room," he said.,"Trade between the European Union and the United Kingdom is affected and it is affecting supplies of essential radio isotopes as well as antibiotics and cancer treatments," Pankhania said, "As well as other medicines. And this is a consequence of Brexit.",However, the Daily Express reported that the lack of HRT since April this year was caused by a shortage of material imported from the Far East.,The academic accused the government of having its head in the sand over the issue amid the leadership contest to replace Boris Johnson as prime minister.,"Ministers are in denial and do not want to address the big issue, which is our trade with the European Union, including pharmaceuticals, is affected," he reiterated. "They are pretending that it is not an issue. It is an issue and they are not addressing it.","What we really need is for the medical profession, for the pharmaceutical profession, for the other health care workers to have one voice and say it, loud and clear" Pankhania stressed.,WorldUK Pharmacists Warn Medicine Shortages Put Patients at Risk08:40 GMT,The senior medic warned that the problem could affect patients "across the board" in the National Health Service (NHS).,"They are across a range of ailments. They range from patients who need radio isotopes for cancer therapy," Pankhania said. "There are patients who need insulin for diabetes. And then there are patients who also need, for example, hormone replacement therapy".,A survey of 1,562 UK pharmacists for the Pharmaceutical Journal established that more than 54% of respondents said that patients had been put at risk in the last six months due to medicine shortages.,“We had to ration it, and this has potentially put patients at risk of vitamin deficiencies,” a pharmacist was cited as saying.,In response, a spokesperson for the UK Department of Health and Social Care insisted that they “take patient safety extremely seriously, and […] routinely share information about medicine supply issues directly with the NHS [National Health Service] so they can put plans in place to reduce the risk of any shortage impacting patients, including offering alternative medication.”。

二 | 今年，世界上最大的云客户将是美国国防部，该部门先前审查了投标审查，并将多年合同授予各个云提供商。该计划被称为联合企业防御计划（Jedi），旨在将国防部的大型计算系统转移到云端。该合同价值100亿美元，占云计算市场当前年收入的25%。五角大楼的合同将使340万用户和400万设备脱离私人服务器进入云端。使用五角大楼以外的服务器的安全风险被物理上独立的政府区域和混合解决方案所抵消，这些解决方案在必要时通过添加云来扩展内部服务器。人工智能、深入学习和其他技术（如虚拟现实）的好处对现代战争至关重要，因为实时数据将为士兵在战场上的任务提供信息，并帮助他们做好战斗准备。
