... a bundle of optical fibers was a guy by the name of Heinrich Lamm whom which was a medical student at Munich. His goal was to be able to look inside inaccessible parts of the human body, and in a 1930 paper he reported transmitting the image of a light bulb filament through a short bundle. However the unclad fibers transmitted the images poorly, and the rise of the Nazis forced Lamm, a Jew, to move to the USA and give up his dream of becoming a professor of medicine. A lot of things have changed since then. Fiber optics has come along way, and it is being used a lot more. is now made so that it transmits light waves through one destination to another, and we all ...

Tetzeli in his article "Videogames: Serious Fun" compares videogames $ 6.5 billion--a--year business to the Hollywood film industry (110).

In addition to that they also produced and licenced for all their softwares for their machines (110). Palmery estimates to produce and market a ful featured videogame it would costs up to $10 million (102). Becaus ...
... the number, content, and accessibility of pornographic sites will be discussed. Lastly, this paper will discuss what measures can be taken to protect children from pornographic Internet sites. What exactly is the Internet? It is a global network of computers used to transmit all types of data between computers. Text, numbers, programs, illustrations, photographs, audio, animation, and video can all be transmitted over the Internet. Contrary to what some people may think, the Internet is not a single computer nor is it a single service. The Internet is not owned by or governed by anyone. It exists solely through the support of the companies and institutions tha ...
... not happen. The problem with that is it is a very hard task to do. It is almost guaranteed this will not happen for another five to ten years. Being hooked up online helps make high school easy to slide through. There is a student at Chichester Senior High School that has a home computer hooked online with the Internet system. So when he has a term paper due all he does is down load a term paper on the system with the same topic. He just puts his name on the paper, hands it in, and receives an A. In return when he hits college life he will not know how to write a term paper. This will cause him to drop out. I know other students do the same thing he does. ...
... personal thoughts because anyone with Web-authoring software can easily trace the URL (electronic address) back to its origin. In short, people’s visions about a totally anonymous Internet are false because of the electronic trail that is left for others to find. Linda Tripp, who taped her conversations with the former White House intern Monica Lewinsky, exposed President Clinton’s recent oral sex scandal by means of surveillance. Wright is suggesting that this could happen to anyone. Computer surveillance isn’t all that uncommon these days so people should look out for what they write and where they go on the Internet because someday it might be use ...
... the NTSC signal. This signal has proved to be a durable way of transmitting information for 50 years. But with today's technology, a new standard has been in the works, HDTV. In September 1992 NBC's WRC-TV in Washington DC became the first television station in the country to send HDTV signals over the air waves. WRC- TV's general manager then stated, "With advanced digital high-definition television, viewers will experience unmatched picture quality and superior sound resolution." There are many pro's and con's regarding having HDTV as the new standard. Not all broadcasters are interested in HDTV at all. During the transitional period, broadcasters will ...
... manipulators called "Hackers," has spread to all users of computer networks. The language is currently spoken by people on the Internet, and is rapidly spilling over into advertising and business. The words "online," "network," and "surf the net" are occuring more and more frequently in our newspapers and on television. If you're like most Americans, you're feeling bombarded by Netspeak. Television advertisers, newspapers, and international businesses have jumped on the "Information Superhighway" bandwagon, making the Net more accessible to large numbers of not-entirely- technically-oriented people. As a result, technological vocabulary is entering int ...
... types of keyboard users; the regular users and the other typists. The regular users are people who uses the keyboard for word processing, e-mailing, and internet; there is not much of a need for them to type extremely fast. They do not type mechanically but rather based on their thought, and thinking takes time. In other words, faster keyboards are irrelevant for them because they are not continuously typing. They need to think what they are going to write, one sentence one after another. On the other hand, the typists whose job is simply to type, do so continuously. They also happen to be the major victims of repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) which is in large ...
... the differences between the various systems with different data models can be big and substantial. Second is the common theoretical framework. 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 ...
