.... could just use it for your own family history. The basic structure of a computer is a keyboard, a moniter, a and case which holds all the componets to make a computer run like a Hard drive, a Motherboard, and a Video card. There are many other additions you can make to this such as a Modem, a Joystick, and a Mouse. The personal computer was developed during the year 1945 by the Americans to help them decode enemy secret codes during the Second World War. At this time the computers were huge and only used by governments because they were as big as room. This was because the main thing they u .....

.... of multiple workstation that accesses a transmission medium called Multiple Access. Here the medium listen until no signals are detected. This is known as Carrier Sense. After checking to see if more than one signal is present they transmit. This is called Collision Detection. When a collision occurs the station then has to retransmit. The most important part of CSMA/CD access method is collision detection. Workstation may simultaneous transmit causing a collision. A method was needed to prevent this from happening. After a workstation transmit a signal within a matter of a second they can .....

.... more timely information, the ability to integrate and correlate internal and external information, the ability to integrate and facilitate streamlined business processes. Unfortunately, not every system that information workers develop are well implemented; this means that the computer system which was originally intended to make a company more efficient, productive and cost-effective, is in the end doing the exact opposite - namely, wasting time, money and valuable manpower. So even with all the lessons learned from the 70's and 80's, our vastly superior methodologies and knowledge of .....

.... The updated version of Windows operating system went on sale in 1990 and five years later the complete makeover version named Windows 95 was launched. And now the much debated and controversial program called Windows 98 was launched last June. (Martin, et al., 1995) Why did the Windows 98 program become so controversial? Due to the fact that Windows program has been used on ninety percent of all the PCs in the world, and utilized such advantage to include Internet Explorer program. Internet Explorer program allows you to surf the Internet, which has very little to do with the opera .....

.... sensors, frequently located within the steering column or in the airbag assembly itself. An accelerometer is more sophisticated than the ball-in-tube crash sensor, and will likely see more widespread use in future models. Nearly all airbag designs are engineered to inflate when the sensors register a crash equivalent to hitting a solid barrier at 10-12 miles per hour. When a car is involved in an accident, and it loses velocity, and the impact is hard and fast enough, it triggers the airbag’s sensors. When the sensors detect that a high-impacted front-end collision has occurred it s .....

.... to addition. In 1694, a German mathematician named Gottfried Wilhem von Leibniz, improved the Pascaline by creating a machine that could also multiply. Leibniz's mechanical multiplier worked by a system of gears and dials. By studying Pascal's original notes and drawings, Leibniz was able to refine his machine. It wasn't until 1820 that mechanical calculators gained widespread use. Charles Xavier Thomas de Colmar, a Frenchman, invented a machine that could perform the four basic arithmetic functions. Colmar's mechanical calculator, the arithometer, presented a more practical appr .....

.... VR? Virtual Reality grew out of flight simulation research during World War II and early computer graphics research in the 1960's. In 1965, computer scientist Ivan Sutherland published a paper describing "The Ultimate Display" and set the stage for research on the technology of Virtual Reality. Here's an excerpt from his paper: "The ultimate display would, of course, be a room within which the computer can control the existence of matter. A chair displayed in such a room would be good enough to sit in. Handcuffs displayed in such a room would .....

.... since Sears Roebuck created the first pictorial catalogue, the idea has fascinated US that merchandises could be selected and ordered in our leisure time. Like any cataloging system, references make it easy to find what user seeks. Since its inception, The Internet has been refining its search tools. Being able to find products through many catalogues is what make the Internet shine in information retrieval. This helps the consumer find merchandise that they might other wise probably cannot find. The World Wide Web allows users to find information on goods and services, pictures of product .....

.... computer class would teach the basics of computers: typing a document in a word processor, running a specified program, and using a modem to check e-mail and access the Internet. Personal computers now have a tremendous entertainment value due to their versatility. Not only can a computer do all the things that are unique to computers, it can be a television and a radio as well. Computers have also attracted millions of people with games galore. Immersive, three-dimensional games such as Doom 2, Quake, and Duke Nukem 3D can keep people glued to their computers for hours. With current t .....

.... 4, 1996. It is also impossible to ban all things that are prohibited in a country. For instant, some countries, such as Germany, have considered taking measures against the U.S. and other companies or individuals that have created or distributed offensive material on the Internet. If the United States government really wanted to censor the net, there is only one solution - shut down all network links of other countries. But of course that would mean no Internet access for the whole country and that is disgust by the whole nation. Secondly, everyone has their personal judgment values. The de .....
