Battle Of The Bytes: Macintosh Vs. Windows 95
Number of words: 1131 - Number of pages: 5.... menu lets you call up and switch
between any software application at any time. Thus feature is better than the
Mac's because its use is more obvious. It clearly shows what is running and
allows you to switch programs with a single click of the mouse. Control panels
have been added so you can configure your hardware. There is easy access to
frequently used files. You can make very long file names on Windows 95 instead
of short and strange names that leave you wondering about, such as on Windows
3.x I could not name a folder This is stuff for school it must be a lot shorter.

An Ergonomic Evaluation Of The Kinesis Computer Keyboard
Number of words: 767 - Number of pages: 3.... with the most while working with computer. The subject of whether
these ergonomic keyboards, mice, monitors and other products really work
attracts a lot of regular computer users. Thus, studies dedicated to it have
been done. This report is based on one of the studies about an ergonomic
keyboard from a manufacturer called Kinesis. This study looks not only on the
effect of the keyboard on the users' body by mean of electromyographic activity
but also on the learning rate of the users changing to this new style of
keyboard. This is very useful since slow learning rate would lea .....

Computer Simulations
Number of words: 2260 - Number of pages: 9.... through theater-level as well as to support training events in educational institutions. Designed and built using modern computer technology, modern software engineering techniques, and validated algorithms and databases, it will allow units world-wide to train using their organizational equipment. A key feature of the system will be its use of technology to minimize the total Army's overhead associated with supporting training. The system will be designed to meet emerging Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) standards and protocols to facilitate linkages with DIS compliant simulators a .....

Internal Combustion Engines
Number of words: 1397 - Number of pages: 6.... raises the temperature of the air in the chamber
and ignites the injected fuel without a spark. The diesel engine is a
compression-ignition engine. This article emphasizes the spark-ignition engine.
The invention and early development of internal-combustion engines are
usually credited to three Germans. Nikolaus Otto patented and built (1876) the
first such engine; Karl Benz built the first automobile to be powered by such an
engine (1885); and Gottlieb Daimler designed the first high-speed internal-
combustion engine (1885) and carburetor. Rudolf Diesel invented a successful
com .....

AIBO And Robotics
Number of words: 432 - Number of pages: 2.... that are fully automatic. Robots are taught to perform repetitive tasks. Intelligent robots incorporate the other disciplines of Artificial Intelligence like, human sensory simulation for touch, sight, and hearing.
Our future will definitely have a place for robots. Some radicals believe that robots will eventually take over our planet. “Fifty years, tops, until the robots exceed us,” says Hans Moravec, director of Carnegie Mellon's Mobile Robot Lab. "When you compare the evolution of mental abilities in animals to similar abilities in machines, robot evolution is going about .....

Organic Molecules Challenge
Number of words: 2520 - Number of pages: 10.... Carnegie-
Mellon University, Pittsburgh. "Now it's only a matter of time, hard work, and
some luck before molecular electronics start having a noticeable impact."
Molecular electronics is so named because it uses molecules to act as the
"wires" and "switches" of computer chips. Wires, may someday be replaced by
polymers that conduct electricity, such as polyacetylene and
polyphenylenesulfide. Another candidate might be organometallic compounds such
as porphyrins and phthalocyanines which also conduct electricity. When
crystallized, these flat molecules stack like pancakes, and metal ions .....

Airships
Number of words: 1766 - Number of pages: 7.... rigid airship, the shape of
which is fixed by its internal structure; and the nonrigid blimp, which depends
on the pressure created by a series of air diaphragms inside its gas space to
maintain the shape of its fabric hull. Inventors sought to combine the best
features of these models in a semirigid type, but it met with only limited
success. Today only the nonrigid airship is used.
Rigid Airship
The rigid airship's structure resembled a cage that enclosed a series of
balloons called gas cells. These cells were tailored to fit the cylindrical
space and were secured in place by a net .....

is concluded that despite the widespread social network of the computer
underground, it is organized primarily on the level of colleagues, with
only small groups approaching peer relationships.
Certification: In accordance with departmental and Graduate
School policies, this thesis

Nuclear Power Plants
Number of words: 430 - Number of pages: 2.... nuclear plants.
The United States should put the money which they would have used in order to renew their power plants, and use it to research others ways of receiving power. For example, if the U.S. developed solar power more and made it less costly, as well are more convenient for the average person, then there would be no more problems. In the past century many advances have been made in terms of energy. Power plants became the main source of energy, and towards the end of the century, new advances have been made such as solar power. I predict that in the upcoming century, many new adva .....
