communication systems collapse and people are sitting as blind. What is this all about, it is a cyber-attack acting as a force multiplier. 2. Cyber warfare is an outcome of information age technologies like satellites, electronic mailing system, internet, computers and micro-chips. Advancements in these technologies have converted the planet earth into a global village affecting all facets of human activity including warfare. Cyber warfare can influence all three components of the nation-state: the

Transistors mark the beginning of the "Second Generation" of computers in 1947. Unfortunately, the 2nd Generation did not advance as much as most people hoped, but eventually, the "Third Generation" was brought about by the invention of integrated circuits in 1958. Integrated circuits

Moore's law is the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. The law is named after Intel co-founder Gordon E. Moore, who described the trend in his 1965 paper.[1][2][3] His prediction has proven to be accurate, in part because the law is now used in the semiconductor industry to guide long-term planning and to set targets for research and development.[4] The capabilities of many digital electronic

particles are in a state of vibration. By reason of the air element, material bodies exhibit a motion". (D. Hamma, 2014). ▪ New materials often lead to new technologies that change society. Describe how silicon-based semiconductors revolutionized computing. • What are microchips? • How are they related to integrated circuits? • One of the pressing questions about the increasing ability of computers to quickly process large amounts of information is whether a computer can be built

What caused the time usage difference was the introduction of technology. The usage of computers (by computers I don’t just mean a rectangular box connected to a system unit with a mouse and a keyboard.) made productivity rate high.

CHAPTER ONE BACKGROUND OF MINISTRY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT The system of Local Government (LG) in Uganda is established under the 1995 constitution and enacted through the Local Government Act (LGA) cap 243 Laws of Uganda 2000. Local Government Financial and Accounting Regulations, issued under the LGA, prescribe the accountability measures for compliance by LGs. The goal of the decentralization policy is to facilitate economic growth and development by devolving powers, functions,
