...Modern GPUs use most of their transistors to do calculations related to 3D computer graphics. They were initially used to accelerate the memory-intensive work of texture mapping and rendering polygons, later adding units to accelerate geometric calculations such as the rotation and translation of vertices into different coordinate systems. Recent developments in GPUs include support for programmable shaders which can manipulate vertices and textures with many of the same operations supported by CPUs, oversampling and interpolation techniques to reduce aliasing, and very high-precision color spaces. Because most of these computations involve matrix and vector operations, engineers and scientists have increasingly studied the use of GPUs for non-graphical calculations. An example of GPUs being used non-graphically is the generation of Bitcoins, where the graphical processing unit is used to solve puzzles. In addition to the 3D hardware, today's GPUs include basic 2D acceleration and framebuffer capabilities (usually with a VGA compatibility mode). Newer cards like AMD/ATI HD5000-HD7000 even lack 2D acceleration, it has to be emulated by 3D hardware.

...CASE STUDY 2 Criminal Justice professionals have certain responsibilities and duties in order to fulfill the needs of society. Criminal justice professionals are the backbone to any society and they are given certain authority and power by the government to protect its citizens. This sets them apart from the general population. They are expected to fulfill the vast amount of duties expected of them in a professional manner. Criminal justice professionals are expected to have very high moral standard therefore in order for the citizens to feel safe they have to remain vigilant and professional; they are not expected to be any discrimination or biasness at all, during the commission of their duties. Law enforcement, correctional system and legal system are a few of the criminal justice professions that are entrusted by the government with the powers to protect and serve the citizens of the country. Law enforcement officer’s role is public safety, which can officially be broken down in different functions, enforcing the law, keeping the peace and protection of life and property. In carrying out the function law enforcement officer have to exercise discretion. Without law enforcement we would have anarchy and crime would be more prevalent. Policing is as much as helping people and maintaining community quality of life as it is about enforcing the law and apprehending criminals. In today’s multicultural and diverse society...

You discover that your local DMV is looking to build a system that will allow receptionists to check customers in quickly. They would like for the system to allow customers to self-check-in during busy times, but have receptionists check customers in the rest of the time. Your company puts a bid in for the project and wins. Read the article located at http://www.bcs.org/upload/pdf/ewic_hc07_lppaper18.pdf. Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you: 1. Suggest the prototyping technique you would use for this system and support your rationale. 2. Create a management plan containing eight to ten (8-10) stages for proper design of such a system. 3. Explain each stage of the management plan and justify your rationale. 4. Estimate the length of time it will take to complete each stage of the management plan. 5. Compare and contrast the self-check-in interface with the interface a receptionist would use. 6. Use Microsoft Visio or an open source alternative, Dia, to create a total of two (2) graphical representations of your proposed interfaces, one (1) for the self-check-in and one (1) for the receptionist. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included...

...Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study It has been said that modeling the learner is the central aspect of intelligent tutoring systems. This realization spurred the development of student modeling systems or systems that diagnose student errors. These systems proved to be effective in areas like mathematics (subtraction, highschool algebra, differentiation) and computer programming (Pascal, Lisp,C++). The essential elements in constructing a student model are the background knowledge and the student behavior. The first component which is the background knowledge is difficult to acquire automatically and to extend, and in fact one of the major bottlenecks in the development of student modeling systems. The difficulty lies in constructing the bug library, which is the collection of common errors made by the students in a particular domain (Sison,1998). This implies that the background knowledge is a critical component in student modeling construction. Indeed, few systems are able to construct and extend bug libraries. The second component, which is the student behavior can be classified as simple and complex (Sison, 1998). Simple behavior involves classification and complex behavior involves problem solving task. Traditionally, in domains wherein the student behavior is simple (subtraction), student modeling systems used multiple behaviors as the primary input. This is known as synthetic student modeling. One drawback of this is that, the modeling system might construct...
