The Dependability Of The Web
... if he makes too many mistakes. Nobody could have predicted that the
internet would expand at this rate and that's probably the reason why troubles
are arising about the dependability of the web.
As usage soars (some estimate there will be over eighty million users by
the end of 1997) could the internet overload? Even though no one predicted the
popularity of the net some are quick to foresee the downfall or doomsday of
this fade. If you call it a fade. The demand continues to rise and is now so
great that technological improvements are continually needed to handle the
burden that's been created from all of t ...

Airbags
... by inflating in not serious accidents. 51 of these deaths were children, most of whom were not using a seat belt. Small children and don’t mix. Children shouldn’t be in the front seat because the force of the airbag is usually too much for them. Never put a rear facing child seat in the front seat of the car. If the airbag goes off, the seat will be pushed forward and the child may get squeezed between the back of the seat and the airbag. Children are less likely to be killed in a crash if they are in the back seat.
If someone must put a child in the front seat, they may want to have an on/off switch ...

Data Warehousing
... People often get blind sided by these issues. My
hope is that this paper might give readers some advance warning of these
issues. Though what is done about these issues varies by organization, I
believe the best advice to data warehouse implementers is to do your best
to spot these issues early and then pick your battles wisely.
I recommend that you read Marc Demarest's The Politics of Data
Warehousing in conjunction with this paper. In his June 1997 paper, Marc
comments on how little extended discussion of politics there is in the data
warehousing literature. As of the writing of this paper, to the best of ...

Computer History
... Von Lebniz invented a calculating machine that could add and multiply.
In 1812, computer developments had risen in Cambridge, England. Charles Babbage wanted to develop a machine that would operate the long computations to be able to operate automatically. He then devised an automatic calculating machine, which he named a "difference engine". By 1822, he had constructed a small working model for demonstrations. In 1823, he started construction of a full-scale "difference engine". It was designed to be steam powered, fully automatic and was to be comanded by a fixed instruction programer.
Babbaged worked on the " ...

With all of my assumpions done I thought that I new basicly what I would
find in my project and so it was off to my first opservation.
Finding Out What It Is About
In the first observation I was with some friends who were going
back and forth about whose machine was the best when right then I thought
to my self that both of those machines were very good. Then I discoved what
I should focuse on in project it was the loaltiy to a brand I thought that
this is true for so many different things such as cars skiies and just

Computer Crime
... in the field.
Computer crimes are often heard a lot about in the news. When you ask someone
why he/she robbed banks, they world replied, "Because that's where the money
is." Today's criminals have learned where the money is. Instead of settling
for a few thousand dollars in a bank robbery, those with enough computer
knowledge can walk away from a computer crime with many millions. The National
Computer Crimes Squad estimates that between 85 and 97 percent of computer
crimes are not even detected. Fewer than 10 percent of all computer crimes are
reported this is mainly because organizations fear that their ...

Software Piracy
... is widely practiced and widely tolerated. In some countries, legal
protection for software is nonexistent (i.e., Kuwait); in others, laws are
unclear (i.e. Israel), or not enforced with sufficient commitment (i.e., the
PRC). Significant piracy losses are suffered in virtually every region of the
world. In some areas (i.e., Indonesia), the rate of unauthorized copies is
believed to be in excess of 99%.
Why do People Use Pirated Software?
A major reason for the use of pirated software is the prices of the
REAL thing. Just walk into a CompUSA, Electronics Boutique, Computer City,
Egghead, etc and you w ...

Telecommunication
... together so that they
can exchange information. The first such exchange of information was on May 24,
1844 when Samuel Morse sent the famous message "What hath God wrought" from the
US Capitol in Washington D.C. across a 37 mile wire to Baltimore using the
telegraph. The telegraph is basically an electromagnet connected to a battery
via a switch. When the switch is down the current flows from the battery
through the key, down the wire, and into the sounder at the other end of the
line. By itself the telegraph could express only two states, on or off. This
limitation was eliminated by the fact that it ...

Why Y2K?
... medical equipment, ATM machines, and even many modern vehicles. Although many companies have gotten off their thumbs and done something about it, its too late to fix everything; meaning that something will fail on the year 2000. And even if some computers ARE compliant, what about those computers that they contact or link to Via the internet that are NOT compliant? They'd only be spewing in garbage the computer cant use, and can may even screw up compliant computers as well.
I know what your thinking: "Its not going to happen, someone is going to make some "wonder program" that will fix all the bugs" W ...

Computer Crime 3
... of business or any other activity you may be doing. Calculations can be done in milliseconds and even worldwide connectivity and communication. With the introduction of the computer a new form of crime was born. These crimes referred to as computer crimes are varied and some are a lot more serious than others. Computer crime can involve criminal activities such as theft, fraud, forgery and mischief, all which are easily defined and subject to criminal sanctions. The computer has also brought along with it a host of potentially new misuses or abuses that may, or should be criminal as well.
The problem w ...
