...| PC Technology Advancement | | ITT TECH | | | | Personal computers have long been a mainstay for homes around the globe. With uses such as internet surfing, communication, homework and finance tracking and business the personal computer has been a valuable asset. As the computer evolves during the next 20 years the possibilities seem endless. Here are some of the ways computers may evolve in the next 20 years. As technology develops and improves so does the personal computer. Smaller and faster computer chips are constantly being developed which personalize the computer even more. Stronger and more powerful micro processers will create a more realistic visual environment which will make interaction with the personal computer even easier. The next generation of chips will also provide better interaction through speech and visual recognition. Current programs are able to recognize and respond to your voice but future programs will also be able to read your lips through visual recognition which can be useful to those who are unable to speak. As you dictate to your computer it will recognize when you leave and it will stop dictating. As further developments are made in interactive software our personal lives will become simpler. The next generation computer will be able to learn from our past internet browsing and help us to improve upon it. Tasks such as internet shopping will be made easier by tracking prior experiences...

...India’s GDP and Information Technology Group 5 – Div A Tejaswini Vaidya Mohit Mittal Harshul Trivedi Akshay Mohta Tomy Augustine Contents India’s GDP 3 IT and India 4 IT and its Contribution to GDP 4 Investments in the IT sector in India 5 Education & its impact on GDP 8 Conclusion 9 India’s GDP India’s GDP has grown steadily since 1991, after the Prime Minister Narasimha Rao initiated the economic liberalization of 1991. The reform reduced tariffs and interest rates, terminated public monopolies and allowed autocratic approval of FDI ( Foreign Direct Investments) in many sectors. Fig 1: India – Gross Domestic Product The GDP of India is essentially divided into three broad sectors. 1. Industry and Services: Accounts for 26.3% of the total GDP 2. Agriculture: 18.1% of the total GDP 3. Services: 56.6% of the GDP 4. Total Labor force: 487.6 million 5. Labor force in services: 34% ~ 165.5 million IT and India India gained recognition due to its IT and ITES sector. The ITES can be broadly classified into IT Services and BPO (Business processing outsourcing). The first software export zone setup in India was in Mumbai, the SEEPZ Park, in 1973. Significant growth has taken place since then in the IT Services sector and consequently the net contribution to the GDP has been growing ever since. India’s reputation as both as a source and a destination for skilled workforce helped improve its relations with a number of world economies...

...the United States of America. Sometimes it’s better to let the things in the past, stay in the past but not when it comes to policing, back in the late 1800s and early 1900s police made people feel safe within their community. Police officers would walk the streets patrolling the neighborhood, standing on street corners talking to the neighbors in the community and actually getting to know the people who they help protect. That was when citizens and police officers actually knew each other on a first name basis, when citizens felt police officers cared about them and what went on in their community. During this era citizens felt safer and had a better relationship with the police but as time went on and technology got better the relationship that was developed between...

...Problem Solving Theory Doctor Hill April 6, 2015 PARADIGM SHIFT There is a whole lot of Technology that could be written about in the technology world. The one thing I believe that will have a big impact on how we live within the next 20 years, Is the personal computers. Computers will have much more memory to store the important stuff. Sooner or later they’ll become touch screen much like your phone or tablet. They are also in the works on some type of speech recognition programs. So that would also change up the way we type, and make more space. This would allow you to just speak to the computer, and it will type for you. There are many new ideas on upgrading our technology, but there is a lot of work still to be done. The main thing everybody wants is more memory. People want to be able to store all of their important documents, family photos, and movies on their computer instead of caring around an extra hard drive. Recently a technology called the cloud storage is available to store data online. There is just a little charge for it to keep up with your files and maintain the security and upkeep. This will allow you to store all your information online and there will be no need for external hard drives. So it would be one less thing people will need to keep up with. The Less things to take up space, is becoming more relevant in the technology world. So the smaller the computer is equals less room it’s going to need. It seems like there will...

...the bids. They are: Performance & Quality, Service, Price (total cost of purchase determines the pricing factor) and Financing. By applying a value to each, a better evaluation of the bids can be made. Performance & Quality was perceived to be of utmost importance to the point where the success of the project depended on it. This was given a high value of 40 with the other three taking 20 each for a total of 100. The Merakuri bid scored the highest with 85 followed by Pnutype with 70 and Jabaking with 60. Jabaking is the current supplier of our presses which came about as a result of a favour from the owners. Platinum Box has always felt indebted to Jabaking and may feel some loyalty as a result but the inability of their current presses to meet the quality specification put forward has dismissed them as supplier at this time. Also the union presence is strong at Jabaking which could result in a union push towards Platinum Box if they were chosen as the supplier. The new technology used by Pnutype has a high risk attached. It has a very short track record and the technology should be better proven before it can be adopted by Platinum Box. This leaves Merakuri as the preferred vendor with its acceptable product quality, highest production...

...Matt Hamilton Paradigm Shift The new Technology that’s in use today that I think that could very much change the world the next 20 years would be touch screen technology. It has changed so much of how all of us going form business owners to medical and just everything. And in 20 years from now it will be so much more advanced to the point where I think we will be able to use these devices with our eyes. First one I see it really doing a lot for is in the medical field. It has already changed so much with touch screen technology where doctors can see a patient’s whole entire body without having to use X Rays. I personally think X-Rays will become extinct pretty much because of this. A person could be lying down and have a simulated diagram of the person brain for example or complete skeleton layout and can handle everything right there. Surgeries thus can be much easier and prognoses could me a lot placed better I think. Just all around I think the medical field will be changed. The emergency field for sure would be changed also I can see in the next 20 years. I see how the emergency field is now with for example 911 calling center to alarm systems will soon be drastically changed. First off the call center when someone calls in that need the police a screen can automatically pop up and it will show who’s calling street address and zooming capabilities to see exactly what the emergency is whether it’s a burglary or any type of home invasion. Also the people who...

...Year 10 Communications Technology Unit: Animation Task Title: Stop Motion Name: Teacher: Mr Rogers Year: 2012 Term: 3 Date Given: 3/08/2012 Prelim Date: 4/09/2012 Due Date: 14/09/2012 Context for Learning The moving pictures that we see on our television or at the movies are made up of many thousands of still pictures that, when played back reasonably quick, trick our brains into thinking there is movement. Modern video is composed of up to 30 frames per second and seems smooth when viewed. This same effect can be achieved at much lower frame rates and clever use of camera and editing techniques can create the illusion of movement when none really exists. Through these methods animated reality can be achieved, avoiding the need to draw 20-30 frames for every second of video. Assessment Task Design and produce a stop motion animation video. This will involve: 1. Writing a proposal outlining your planned story and how you intend to produce your animation (hand drawn, clay models, Lego/action figures/teddy bears, furniture, etc.) Also explain what equipment and software you plan to use (ask for assistance if uncertain). Follow the format on the next page. 2. Creating a storyboard with enough panels to demonstrate the shooting and editing plan. Follow the format on the next page. 3. Shoot and edit your video sequence using available equipment and software. Add sound effects, dialogue and music. Export as an AVI, WMV or MP4 file format at a high quality resolution saved...

...After a careful and extensive analysis of Ocpers current network configuration, and giving thought in the direction that Ocper is going in the next 20 years based on your presidents comments. I Christian D Thompson under the direction of Network Consulting Firm (NCF) recommends the following changes be made to Ocpers current network infrastructure. These recommendations where made by looking at the following: • Existing infrastructure- how does the current infrasturcture perform is it fiesable to keep it in place and suplement it’s poor performance with new tecnology. • New Technology- is there new technology available that can better support the companies needs and growth over the next 20 yrs. • Pros and Cons- what are the benefits of upgrading to a new topology and the negatives of upgrading. • Future exspansion- can the existing coaxial infratructure support the companies growth over the next 20 yrs. • Cost- how much will, it cost the company for initial upgrade and future growth. These are our recommendations: Your company currently has 20 workstations connected with coaxial cabling. The company wants to expand and double its size in the next 20 years. We recommend that you upgrade your cabling at the minimum to a twisted pair CAT5 or CAT6, preferably CAT6. Coaxial cable for network connections is obsolete and does not provide the performance or scalability to support a growing company. All though twisted pair cabling is a suitable choice for your company...

...“Paradigm Shift” The technology that I believe will change in the next 20 years is the cellular phone. This technology has already undergone major changes in the last 5-10 years with the induction of the “smart phone”. With this device, users are able to not only make phone calls, but they are able to do a number of things to include web browsing and banking functions. One change will be the hand-held model. I believe with new technology, phone calls will be made via hands-free devices. The aforementioned will eliminate the need to walk around with a physical phone in your hand, pocket, etc. iWatches and wireless devices have already begun to serve as alternatives to traditional hand-held phones. Another change on the horizon of cellular phones is the camera feature. This feature allows us to take pictures and face-to-face chat through FaceTime and other similar applications. As mentioned above, this can be done with a watch or similar wristband type device; eliminating the need to physically hold the phone. One would simply be able to hold up their wrist device and point it at their face and see the other person’s face on the display. Lastly, I think devices will become smaller and not larger. The iPhone and Samsung Galaxy phones have seemingly gotten larger. This has mainly been due to the social media accessibility and gives customers more screen size to manage more applications simultaneously. As technology evolves, I believe we will one...

...the years to what we have at the current moment where it is highly characterized by an incomparable level of media freedom, advanced media and communication technologies, ease of accessibility of news by the public as well as the various ways in which technology has been integrated to the media. The position that the British news media will be in the next 20 years is therefore an unimaginably advanced position. The media sector is projected to significantly advance on various front including technology, ease of reading news, affordability of acquiring news as well as the vast expanse of media freedom (Burrell, 2015). Technology forms the center stage at which the British news media would be in 20 years’ time. The technological foundation upon which the British news media was laid on since its establishment warranted a constant research into better forms of communication such as development of television among others which have placed the British news media on the forefront. In 20 years’ time, the British news media would have therefore significantly adapted to the existing technological advances especially in terms of improved computing power which would therefore translate to faster relaying of news from one point to another around the globe irrespective of the vast distances to be covered. The development of microprocessors that are significantly more powerful would therefore guarantee that news would be relayed in an idea and real time fashion. In addition to technology, the...

...The Technology World Lauren L. Korpacz Brigham Young University-Idaho Foundations English 101 Professor Shaffer May 30, 2014 Abstract Technology has changed the world’s lives in several ways. Computers, gadgets, and new inventions have improved magnificently over the years. Technology makes certain situations useful, but it is causing people to avoid important details of their life. Technology alters rapidly. In that case, people dislike change and resist it. It has limited the time for other things in life. The Technology World Technology today has shuffled drastically in the last several years. There have been many adjustments in society now and most of them are due to tweaks and advances in the creation of many significant inventions. The times of writing letters are quickly disappearing based on texting, email, and cell phones. The cartoon below, from Baloo Cartoons by Rex F. May (2013), proves that social settings are very different than they were several years ago. This cartoon (May, 2013) teaches individuals that they are losing the ability to filter the important information that was coming directly to them. There are fewer opportunities that someone can look around in a public area and see a person without a cell phone in hand. Today’s society, people of all backgrounds and ages have cell phones. Because of advances in technology, today’s world relies on information from the internet. Some people think...
