History Of Computers
Number of words: 821 - Number of pages: 3.... it was controlled by instructions punched into a roll of paper tape. There was a need for an all-electronic machine.
This project was taken up by Dr. J. Presper Eckert Jr., and Dr. John W. Mauchly, with help from a few of their colleagues, in the spring of 1946. For two and a half years, they work diligently to construct a machine called the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator, or ENIAC. This machine was a complex of 500,000 connections that linked over 18,000 vacuum tubes, weighed 30 tons, and occupied a room the size of an average three-bedroom home. ENIAC was capable o .....

What Is A Computer
Number of words: 389 - Number of pages: 2.... ways. Analog computers are best suited to solving problems in which several quantities vary continuously over a period of time, making exact answers difficult or impossible to obtain. Digital computers are capable of providing exact answers to problems.
The basic concept of a computer is very simple. A computer processes step by step, performing one operation at a time. For example, a computer reads a number from memory, stores it, reads another number from memory, stores it, retrieves the first number, adds it to the second, and writes the answer into memory. This is a computers way .....

Computer Software Piracy
Number of words: 1506 - Number of pages: 6.... software. Software is any of the programs used in operating a digital computer, as input and output programs, as defined by Funk and Wagnalls Standard Desk Dictionary. When we purchase computer software, we purchase it with the understanding that it will be for use on a single computer, once installed on that system, it is not to be loaded on any other computer. However many people are not aware of this understanding, and many load a program on a couple of computers or on a whole network of computer systems not aware that they are committing a crime. Even though you probably will not be .....

Computer Viruses And Their Effects On Your PC
Number of words: 1272 - Number of pages: 5.... Biological Viruses & Human Viruses
Human Virus Effects
Attack specific body cells' Modify the genetic information of a
cell other than previous one. It performs tasks. New viruses grow in the
infected cell itself. An infected program may not exhibit symptoms for a
while. Not all cells with which the virus contact are infected. Viruses can
mutate and thus cannot clearly be diagnosed. Infected cells aren't infected more
than once by the same cell.
Computer Virus Effects
Attack specific programs (*.com,*.exe) Manipulate the program: The infected
program produces virus program .....

Object-Oriented Database Management Systems
Number of words: 3202 - Number of pages: 12.... Although there is no standard object-oriented model, most object-oriented
database systems that are operational or under development today share a
set of fundamental object-oriented concepts. Therefore the implementation
issues in OODBMSs that arise due to these concepts are universal. The
third characteristic is that of experimental activity. Plenty of
prototypes have been implemented and some !
of them became commercial products. There is really a need for
applications to handle very complex data and that is why the interest of
people in building such systems is so strong.

History Of The Computer Industry In America
Number of words: 2612 - Number of pages: 10.... took place in 1694 when Blaise Pascal invented the first "digital
calculating machine". It could only add numbers and they had to be entered by
turning dials. It was designed to help Pascal's father who was a tax collector
(Soma, 32).
In the early 1800's, a mathematics professor named Charles Babbage designed an
automatic calculation machine. It was steam powered and could store up to 1000
50-digit numbers. Built in to his machine were operations that included
everything a modern general-purpose computer would need. It was programmed by--
and stored data on--cards with holes punch .....

Against Federal Censorship Of The Internet
Number of words: 334 - Number of pages: 2.... act was not only vague but that it unconstitutionally restricted the free speech rights of adults.
An estimated of 40% of Internet material originates from foreign countries, where the US's Decency Act would not apply. Governments should not have the power to determine what sort of material is fit or unfit for individuals and their children to access on the Internet. Such power could become an oppressive form of censorship and could be used in an arbitrary manner by local judges and prosecutors to target minority viewpoints.
Federal Internet censorship is absurd and impossible due to the f .....
