...Computer Information Paper Computer information can be input in several different manners. Data may be input through a keyboard which is a device that allows the user to type the information directly into the computer. The keyboard is the most common and most utilized input device. An example of when the keyboard would be the best input device is printed questionnaires. Answering a questionnaire or conducting a telephone survey could be accomplished quickly and easily by simply typing the necessary information into the computer. Bank Checks are best entered by utilizing scanning technology similar to barcode scanners which are used on retail tags. A scanner reads the bar code and enters the information which the bar code represents. This method eliminates human error and insures the information is entered correctly. If it is necessary to input a long document, an optical scanner is the best choice. The optical scanner scans the entire document, page by page, and sends the document to a file folder for storage on a computer or storage device or to a printer if a printed copy is necessary. This method is fast so it only takes a few seconds to scan a long document into a computer file. Convenience and ease of use is important in for output devices. Hand held computers output information through visual output to video monitor or screen. Photographs are best input utilizing files such as JPEG and a scanner. Resumes and memorandums may best be output to a printer of email...

...Computer Information Paper Accuracy of data input is important. What method of data input would be best for each of the following situations and explain why: •Printed Questionnaires – The mode of data input will be decided on the basis of model of printed questionnaire. If the questionnaire consists of multiple choices, optical scanner is the best choice. The keyboard typing or uploading the scanned version of written paper is suitable for theoretical a paper which requires description about the topic. •Telephone survey – Automated computer system to capture the details of survey is best option as it reduces the margin of human error related to typo, grammatical mistake etc. if the instructions are clearly explained to participants. Otherwise, if it is abstruse paper which needs the presence of subject matter expert, human interaction is essential where responses can be recorded into the system. •Bank checks – Automated scanners of bank checks provide the optimal choice of getting the information in efficient manner to reduce the human errors. Still manual check is required to verify the correctness of details whether system has uploaded the exact description mentioned in checks without losing some details due to customer’s error or misinformation. •Retail tags – RFID for International bar code is best method of input in the case of identifying the information embedded in retail tags. It can be problematic in the case when wrong bar code is attached to the item. But it can...

...History of Computers Computer history can be traced back since the 1880s from the advent typewriting and mechanical counting prototype and also companies such as the National Cash Register which made the atm machines we use today to withdraw cash. John Vincent Atanasoff was a physicist who invented the electronic digital computer. The first electronic digital computer was an idea whose time had come; several groups working more or less independently arrived at almost the same place at the same time. Atanasoff was simply a bit ahead of the pack and for him being ahead had a cost. Atanasoff was required to work alone in a place far removed from the mainstream of computer development. He had trouble finding anyone who recognized the significance of his work. Iowa State supported Atanasoff's work, but none of the university officials fully appreciated what he was up to. Computers have been around since World War II used by the military against the enemy. The Germans used the enigma code machine during the war to secretly send code messages. The enigma code machine was one of their secret weapons they used against the allies. The Enigma offered 150 quintillion possible combinations. Computers have changed since then and now have better versions. Then came the Xerox Parc Alto personal computer developed in 1973, which was a breakthrough then with its built-in mouse and the use of windows. The CHM described it as the Macintosh 10 years before it hit the market. In 1976 apple co-founder...

A tablet computer may be connected to a keyboard with a wireless link or a USB port. Convertible notebook computers have an integrated keyboard that can be hidden by a swivel joint or slide joint, exposing only the screen for touch operation. Hybrids have a detachable keyboard so that the touch screen can be used as a stand-alone tablet. Booklets include dual-touchscreens, and can be used as a notebook by displaying a virtual keyboard in one of them. An early information tablet concept, named the Dynabook, was described by a Xerox scientist Alan C Kay, in his Aug 1972 paper: A Personal Computer for children of all Ages, the paper proposes a touch screen as a possible alternative means of input for the device. The first commercial portable electronic tablets appeared at the end of the 20th century. In 2010, Apple Inc. released the iPad which became the first mobile computer tablet to achieve worldwide commercial success...

...Asphalt concrete is a composite material commonly used in construction projects such as road surfaces, parking lots, and airports. Asphalt concrete consists of asphalt (used as a binder) mixed with mineral aggregate and then laid down in layers and compacted. Asphalt concrete was refined and enhanced to its current state by Belgian inventor and U.S. immigrant Edward de Smedt.[2] It is increasingly being used as the core of embankment dams.[3] It is commonly called simply asphalt,[4] blacktop, or paving (particularly in North America). The terms "asphalt (or asphaltic) concrete", "bituminous asphalt concrete", and "bituminous mixture" are typically used only in engineering and construction documents and literature. The abbreviation "AC" is sometimes used for "asphalt concrete" but can also denote "asphalt content" or "asphalt cement", referring to the liquid asphalt portion of a bituminous mixture. Asphalt concrete pavements are often called just "asphalt" by laypersons who tend to associate the term "concrete" with Portland cement concrete only. The engineering definition of concrete is any composite material composed of mineral aggregate glued together with a binder, whether that binder is Portland cement, asphalt or even epoxy.

...My writing process often begins with good intentions. As soon as I receive an assignment, I begin planning my essay and gathering my ideas. However, I often have trouble actually getting work done until I feel motivated by my time constraints. This is a weak point that could potentially cause my work to suffer. Once enough time has passed that I am under some pressure to start putting pen to paper, I gather my laptop, a pencil, and some paper. I prefer making notes about the topic of my assignment on a piece of paper before actually writing any drafts. I make short, simple notes, so it does not usually take very much time. After I have researched my points, I make a basic outline for my essay. This helps me keep my paper organized and make...
