... station in the United States switches over to the digital signal, ana log signals and television sets will still be in use, it will be hard for consumers to bow down and purchase 600 million new high definition television sets. HDTV, is known in the television industry as high definition television. HDTV is paving the way as a new medium waiting to emerge as the greatest thing to hit television since color. However it's not the 1950's and HDTV is already up and running in other markets. Japan's NHK broadcasting group used 1125/60 equipment and European ZDF broadcasters used 1250/50 equipment to cover the 1996 Atlanta games using the HDTV signal (Hitchen, 1 ...
... published an article [KV89]], explaining why computer viruses cannot be dangerous. The arguments presented were, in general, correct, but the author had completely missed the fact that the majority of PC users are not experienced programmers. A few months later, in the fall of the same year, two men came in the editor's office of the magazine and claimed that they have found a computer virus. Careful examination showed that it was the VIENNA virus. At that time the computer virus was a completely new idea for us. To make a computer program, whose performance resembles a live being, is able to replicate and to move from computer to computer even against th ...
... 1998" (Kolor, 3). The financial, travel, and telecommunications industries have already discovered the advantages of . Some of the larger companies that already utilize speech recognition are Charles Schwab & Co., American Express, United Airlines, NationsBank, United Parcel Service, British Airways, and Sears Roebuck and Co. These companies focus on the fastest growing parts of the speech market, where the caller's voice replaces punching in letters and numbers on the telephone keypad. The other applications of speech technology are for the use of consumers. The users' voice can give computer commands as well as dictate speech into text. All operating system ...
... they are basically ads that you look at containing information about the company, person, or product. Also you can sign your child on as a child or teen which keeps them out of restricted areas. Perhaps your main concern is people finding out things that you don't want them to. They only know as much as you tell them. If they ask for your password, credit card number, or any other personal info, you don't have to tell them that information. When you first sign on AOL staff will ask for things like name, age, address, phone number, and your credit card or checking account number. These things remain confidential and are used only for billing purposes. If a ...
... is a 56k which is very fast. Not as fast as ISDN (The Wave offered through Rogers cable) or even as advanced as Satellite modem. Most people now have 14.4 or 28.8 baud modems (Baud is "Slang" for Baud Rate Per Second) the reason for the increase in 14.4 and 28.8's is that they are cheap and fairly recent and haven't gone out of date yet. There are two types of modem external and external modems internal plugs into a 16 bit port inside your computer and external connects through either a serial (mouse)port or a parallel (printer)port most people like the external modems because they don't take up an extra space in your computer (according to PC Computing) p ...
... a plant such as a big city are very densely populated. Because of these facts, I do not think that the U.S. should renew its efforts to develop more 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 ...
... to "programming" rules that the user must memorize, all ordinary arithmetic operations can be performed (Soma, 14). The next innovation in computers 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, 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 into his machine were operations that included everything a modern general-purpose computer wo ...

... interface settings based on personal preference. About a year ago Microsoft released a small program called TweakUI that actually adds more flexibility and functionality to the already current user-friendly interface. TweakUI is actually a rewrite (bug fix) program that edits certain data files from the Windows 95 registry. With TweakUI running on your machine you can disable the following options which in turn will speed up your access time: windows animation, reboot start up, GUI interface, and last log on settings. TweakUI also adds a few nifty extras such as: smooth scroll, mouse enhancement, instant CD-ROM data load, and much more. Surprisingly enough Tweak ...
... age technological revolution, which profoundly effects social structure and values. Some issues that will be addressed are: elimination of work in the traditional sense, longevity, early retirement, the elimination of cash, the restructuring of education, industry and a movement to global politics, economics and world government. In particular this paper will suggest that the Christian Judao work ethic with society's goals of full employment in the traditional sense is no longer appropriate, necessary or even possible in the near future, and that the definition of work needs to be far more liberal. It argues that as a post market era approaches, that both gov ...
