... Act, (CDA) which "was designed to protect children by prohibiting "indecent" speech or images from being sent through cyberspace."(Quittner) This law seems somewhat harmless at a first glance until you begin to read some of its clauses. One of the biggest groups that combated this issue was the CIEC, or Citizens Internet Empowerment Coalition. The CIEC soon began to find problems with this bill as the so maticulously stated on their web site "It is also important to note that the CDA is not about child pornography, obscenity, or using the Internet to stalk children. These are already illegal under current law."(CIEC) The article then states "instead, the CD ...
... of a nuclear attack? Communication networks of that time were chained point-to-point, with each place on the network dependent on the link before it. If one point in the network were blown up, the whole network would become useless. Paul Baran, one of the Rand thinkers on the project, conceived the idea for a new kind of communications network that wasn't organized point-to-point, but instead was set up more like a fishnet. He believed this structure could allow information to find its own path through the network even if a section had been destroyed. His eleven-volume report for the Pentagon was eventually shelved, but younger engineers realized that he had ...
... and dangerous to attribute the capabilities of thinking and creativity to a computer? People have experience, convictions, and cultural traditions. Are these qualities being devalued? If so, perhaps we are heading into an era in which machinelike qualities of speed and problem solving will be valued more highly than what used to be called humane qualities. As a result, many people believe computers have the potential to contribute to worker dissatisfaction. Consider the potential for computer-based systems in business to be used to monitor employees. What if computers were (and some are already) programmed to check your speed, the pauses you make, the breaks you t ...
... using very high-tech computers and engineering programs. These computers are some of the most high tech, powerful computers available anywhere in the world. It takes many of these engineers to produce a car and typically each engineer has a specific job, such as the car's frame. These engineers work independently on their assigned tasks, but they all are aware of what the other engineers are working on. This is because all of the work each engineer produces must work in unison with the work their colleagues are doing so that all the work produced functions as one; as an automobile. Another important factor in the production of an automobile is safety. Ther ...
... a private patient or not. This would also help in the crime department, as it would store the whole of the Australian population of individuals over the age of 18. This would have all the information about each individual these would include their DNA, and other vital statistics. At the scene of the crime there is usually fingerprints or some kind of DNA trail left behind. The police would use this DNA to log into the database to track down the criminal. It would also tell the location of where that criminal is to make it easier to find them. The system also has its problems, Lets say that you were a carrier of a disease but it does not affect you at any way at al ...
... logging that window nt server performs on all domain controllers in the domain. On windows nt workstation or on member servers, the audit policy determines the amount and type of security logging performed on the individual computer. You will first plan the policy, then implement it, and finally view the results. You can set up on audit policy for a domain to: track the success and failure of events, such as when users attempt to log on, read a file, make changes to user and group permissions, change the security policy, and make a network connection. Eliminate or minimize the risk of unauthorized use of resources. Track trends over time by maintaining ...
... stones, but that is a bad mistake. Go to the side with the one black (a setup move so the computer cannot capitalize when you turn 5 black stones white, and the computer your seven whites black. Always play within your set "square". If you had on the bottom row 3 white, and on the second row 2 blacks, you would only play within that designated square, which is 3 x 3 stones. (see diagram.) This ensures that the computer can only play one stone past the square at any time, which will help you in predicting where the computer will move and a basic strategy. Always try to keep yourself to one move to win (if you could have two moves in a row, you wou ...
... data considerably differently than the PC. The Cray's circuits permit an array of data (known as a 'vector') to be processes as a SINGLE entity. So, where the IBMPC may require several clock cycles to multiply two numbers, the Cray performs everything in one clock cycle. This power is measured in Millions of Floating Point Operations Per Second (MFLOPS) - which is to say the rate at which floating-point operations can be performed. The Cray MFLOPS vary as it does many activities, but a rate of up to 210 MFLOPS (per CPU) can be achieved. The second '2' in the X-MP/22 title refers to the two million 64-bit words (16Mb) of shared central memory. This can be expan ...
... is generally interchangeable with Ethernet II, with the greatest difference being the construction of the network packet header. This method consists 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. ...
... what forces or factors are responsible for them. There are few who would still adhere to a model of Nature vs. Nurture rather substituting the vs. for via. Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to human intelligence, however which of these, if any, is more important in shaping intelligence is a source of fierce disagreement. It seems apparent that those who posses higher levels of intelligence are accorded a certain amount of privilege. Therefore where intelligence comes from is essential in determining the validity of endowing privilege on those who posses it. Is it the case that the very definition of intelligence is socially constructed in order to ...
