...Media, considering the statement that “technologies are simply tools” answer the following questions or prompts. A) Explain how that statement relates to the key words describing new media: manipulate, converge, and instant. To better understand the connection, consider that taking a class online is not a different class, it’s simply offered in a different format—a format that uses technology to aid in teaching the course. The statement “technologies are simply tools” from 21st Century Communication: A Reference Handbook: Chapter 54: Traditional and New Media relates to the new media terms manipulate, converge and instant very literally. As new forms of technology emerge, they become tools providing new was to manipulate, converge and instantly transmit different forms of media. New technology has allowed media to be manipulated in a multitude of ways since its previous renditions. A CD is much easier to burn and create than it was to make an analog disk. Media can be digitized thanks to new technologies and through that manipulation can be presented differently. In the same breath as the physical forms and presentation of media have been able to be manipulated so has the types of media that can be presented. Convergence represents the changing of one type of media to another. One of the ways the principle of convergence manifests itself is through digital telephone calls. This practice has become so common because of new technologies that it’s offered by every major telephone...

...In her article Face time vs screen time, Chandra Johnson says that technology has impacted our lives very much and we are losing the personal touch or what she says as the emotional intelligence i.e. how the other person reacts to certain situations differently while they are texting or while communicating face to face. I agree with all her points and I also feel that there should be a balance about how often we use technology. We should use technology but not at the cost of our smartness, as some people nowadays rely too much on technology. Technology helps us in communication. For example, You have a friend who just moved somewhere else and if you want to contact him you can just call him or even face time him but then instead of talking with him on face time, you start looking at his images on Facebook or other social media platforms, that’s where it creates more distance between the two of us. Unfortunately, of what we use our screen time for is not creating intimate connections. Our time with our screen is mostly spent consuming information and because of this you may end up endlessly scrolling through information which is not even important. What once was our free time to connect with friends is now spent at staring at our...

...“The Effects of Technology on the Accounting Profession” Information technology and accounting information systems is significantly responsible for the positive changes in the accounting profession today. Due to these modifications, firm growth and productivity has increased dramatically, especially in the past year. The progress of hardware, applications, infrastructures, and combined accounting workflows show the accounting trends for the future. By firms noting the way the technology has thus far impacted the profession, the firms can thereby assess the potential increased productivity, profitability and nature of services that can be offered to their clients. The capability to have access to telecommute by means of a server, in the comfort of one’s home or the ability to access the internet, either in the office or at home, unrestricted Internet ability with all the tools necessary. So when auditors avail themselves of audit binders for local disk drives, the client and firm have the security and backup necessary to work from afar. The solution to conduct all possible work through the Internet, with backup on the firm's protected servers, where the data runs more effectively and can be accessed by anyone who is authorized to do so, has created a transition that is truly advantageous. Cloud Solutions, or doing work in the cloud, means that your accounting software is available anywhere where there is an internet connection. Your online system can also be linked to bank...

...Topics: * Microsoft Operating Systems * Other Operating Systems Terms: * DOS – Disk Operating System is an acronym for several closely related operating systems that dominated the IBM PC compatible market between 1981 and 1995 * UNIX - is a family of multitasking, multiuser computer operating systems that derive from the original AT&T UNIX. * Command Line Interface - also known as command-line user interface, console user interface, and character user interface (CUI), is a means of interacting with a computer program where the user issues commands to the program in the form of successive lines of text (command lines). Summary: The video taught me that everything that was developed after series 9x of operating systems is built on the NT platform. Also the NT did not have a device manager or a hardware wizard as well as not supporting plug and play. I also learned that Linux was developed by a Finnish student named Linus Torvalds. This information is not really useful for me its old information that for me has no value unless I want to be a technology historian. Unit 8 Assignment 1 Video Summary 6 VIDEO #3.02 Topics: * Partitioning * Creating Partitions * Create/Delete Partitions Terms: * Partition - In personal computers, a partition is a logical division of a hard disk created so that you can have different operating systems on the same hard disk or to create the appearance of having separate hard drives for file management, multiple...

...Nature of the Music Industry Can you map the different kinds of innovation in the case study? Which were incremental and which radical/discontinuous? Why? Give examples to support your answer. One of the innovations in this case study is e-tailing. E-tailing or Electronic retailing is a channel where business-to-business and business-to-consumer sale goods and services through the internet in which revenue can come from the sale of products and services, through subscriptions to website content, or through advertising (Investopedia). In this case study, the ‘e-tailing’ channel obtained the latest hard copy CD’s you can imagine. CD’s were one of the greatest technologies where one can listen to music and enjoy tunes. Although when CD’s were a big hit, most of the albums were purchased through online. As technology became more advances the music innovations increase and tailoring of the music purchasing service and demonstrate some of the ‘richness/reach’ economic shifts of the new Internet game (Tidd 46). It also changed the distribution of CD’s by converting music to an MP3 format in which files can easily be moved through the internet quickly and be shared amongst other users. Another great thing about MP3’s, Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG), used a powerful algorithm for managing one of the big problems in transmitting audio music files compression. Normal audio files cover a wide range of frequencies and are thus very large and not suitable for fast transfer across...

...ways are devices as the hard disk (aka magnetic disk), floppy disk, RAM, CD ROM, tape, and the flash (aka jump drive, USB memory stick, and thumb drive). Storage devices come in two different sources; primary or secondary. Each of these devices causes the computer to process data at different speeds. This paper will show how each of these devices store data and how they affect the speed of the computer. How Speed of a Computer Is Affected By Different Storage Devices The hard disk of a computer is a secondary type of storage. It can be either an external or internal source of storage for a computer. It is primarily to store a mass amount of data. The data remains stored on the hard disk indefinitely until permanently deleted. The hard disk stores the operating systems and application instructions. Without the hard disk the computer would not know how to open any of its operating systems or any of the other applications for the user. In this RAM (Random Access Memory) works with the hard disk. RAM is part of the primary storage; it contains a software program with small amounts of data for processing. When the computer boots up, it loads the whole program from the hard disk through RAM. Its storage capabilities get larger the farther away it is from the CPU. Saved data gets written onto the hard disk because RAM does not retain any data once the computer turns off. The computer needs to have a balance between the hard disk and RAM for the speed of the...

...From Physical Machines to Virtual Machines Anthony V. Lear ITT Technical Institute From Physical Machines to Virtual Machines For years businesses have depended on multiple pieces of hardware, linked together and deployed with software, to connect users to the resources they need. As technology has advanced with today’s virtual software programs, we can now run another “virtual computer” on a physical client machine. With all the technology advances some people believe that virtual machines are equal to physical machines. First, let’s get some background of the physical machine (server/client) and what it has to offer a network. There are many options when it comes to the CPU, Motherboard, Memory (RAM), etc. These options include hard drives (storage), video cards, audio cards, and central processing units (CPU’s). Even though “it’s all just computation” (Nikhil, 2011, p.38) the combination of hardware can make or break the performance of a physical machine. IT professionals have to consider the needs of a network when choosing a physical machine. Depending on how it will be utilized on the network this will then elaborate on the requirements of the machine to provide the capabilities needed to perform its role on the network. For instance, if you require a file server to allocate resources such as software, programs, employee documents, etc. you will have to consider the servers hardware needs to meet this demand. The most important considerations for a file server...

...In differentiating between the File Allocation Table (Fat) 32 and New Technology File system (NTFS) file systems it is important to know what each is. In this assignment I will define in more detail what each system is. The file system that is primarily for use in large USB flash drives is the FAT system which uses an 8KB allocation unit size for drives as large as 6GB, and a maximum logical partition size for as large as 16 GB. It can also be used to format hard disks, flash memory, and removable media. The NTFS provides can provide support for anywhere from 2 TB to the maximum of 16 Exabyte’s. It has access control, built in compression, and individual recycle bins. It also supports the encrypting file system file and mounting drive. It has a disk quota that support hot swapping and indexing as well. FAT 32 systems are not necessarily preferred over the NTFS due to the fact that the NTFS has more security features as well as other features that the FAT 32 does not have. However there is one thing that it does have that can make it more preferred than the NTFS, this being the fact that it can be used on the older systems where the NTFS cannot be. That and the fact that it is also used for floppy disk use, the backward compatibility makes it more preferred as well. The use of Windows in multi boot systems is another advantage that it has over the...

...Digital Literacy can vary person to person. Some people may be more digitally literate than others. Threw out everyone’s life there’s a noticeable change in the amount of technology that is present. We now live in a digital era. More and more people are being born into a seemingly technologically advance society. Learning to adapt to current technology cannot only be beneficial but also may be required for the current workplace. The prevalent constant change in technological advances is inevitable. We all must learn to expand our knowledge towards currently growing technology. Some of us have positive feelings about advances in technology, although many may fear the unknown. No one anticipates such drastic change in the way things work. We mustn’t fear change, for changes in the advancement of technology can only expand our current knowledge and apprehension of not only the modern world, but the history behind our everyday existence. However it is also important to not completely rely on technology in case of an emergency situation that might cause technology to fail. Someone who only relies on technology may find themselves, lost, or incapable of everyday life without it. It is important to have basic survival skills incase such an event was to occur. Video games had an influence on my digital literacy. The first video game system I acquired was a Super Nintendo. I started playing video games in my free time, when I was done with school, homework, and chores. When I first got...
