Computer's Hardware

U.S.B flash driver is a wonderful invention. The U.S.B drivers can store up to 256 G.B of information in a single U.S.B flash driver. Its like a ton of data storage space that fits inside something in the size of your thumb. Technology is a great thing in the world and now a days many peoples use their U.S.B flash drivers.

The size and the cost of the U.S.B flash driver is varied. The cost of the U.S.B flash driver also not higher. The cost of the U.S.B flash driver varies from .99 to 9.00, it may be higher than this price it depends upon the storage size. U.S.B memory is very cheap when compared to an actual Hard disk prices.

Advantage Of The U.S.B Flash Drive

The U.S.B flash drivers have many advantages like it cannot contain any moving parts , moving parts make it break. In the U.S.B flash drivers we can read and write the data's more than 1 million times.

The data's which are store in the U.S.B flash drivers are also very safe because it cannot be affected by dust and scratches. Now a days all the computer's contain a U.S.B port which connects your U.S.B flash driver to the computer. The U.S.B flash driver will work with all computer. All the computers can read and write the flash drive data's by the same command which are using for the disk drive. The U.S.B flash drivers are in very less weight and now a days it comes under key chains to carry easily.

Speed Of The U.S.B Flash Drive

The speed of the U.S.B flash drives as many of them boast transfer speeds of more than 30 Mbps and the reading speed will be 60 Mbps. In this speed the data transferring will made easy and we can finish the work very fast. If you use the U.S.B flash drives for presentations, graphs, music, business charts etc, it will access quickly within a minute.

If the U.S.B flash drives are used for back up the programs or large file size then it would take several minutes or it may take several hours to transfer the data's depending upon your file size.

Uses Of U.S.B Flash Drive

U.S.B flash drives used for store personal information's like music, videos, documents, pictures etc.

System administrator's are using their U.S.B flash drives for transfer recovery and anti virus software's to the affected computer's by the viruses.

Now a days audio players in a car also have an U.S.B port we can listen our favorite music from our U.S.B memory drives.

Computer Science

In 1958, Chaim Pekeris completed a landmark project in computer science. As a physicist at the Weizmann Institute of Technology in Israel, he become fascinated with the relatively new science of quantum mechanics and its potential to explain from first principles the behaviour of atoms.

There was a problem however. The equation developed by Schrodinger that could do the job was too complex for mere mortals to handle. Using it to determine the electronic energy levels of a even a lowly helium atom was seemingly impossible.

Chaim had an idea, however: why not exploit the incipient field of computer science to do the job.

Today, Christoph Koutschan and Doron Zeilberger analyse the work he carried out over several years and compare it to the approach that they would take to the problem today. It makes for interesting reading.

Chaim's task was monumental.

He first had to persuade the Wiezmann Institute and a technical committee including Einstein and Von Neumann, to build a computer. Einstein proved hard to persuade but was eventually won over by Von Neumann.

WEIZAC, Israel's first electronic computer was built between 1954 and 1954. According to Wikipedia, WEIZAC was an asynchronous computer operating on 40-bit words. Instructions consisted of 20-bits: an 8-bit instruction code and 12-bits for addressing. For a memory it had a magnetic drum that could store 1,024 words.

Today you'd get more processing power out of a washing machine.

Before the computer could get involved, Pekeris had to work out how to describe the two atoms and nucleus of a helium atom using the kind of recurring partial differential equations that a computer could handle.

The result was a remarkable 33-term equation which he derived by hand, a single calculation that Koutschan and Zeilberger estimate must have taken 20 person hours.

The computer than had to be programmed--in machine code. That means writing it entirely in 0s and 1s, for which he recruited help from an early self taught programmer called Yigal Accad.

This program then kept WEIZAC busy for months, eventually producing a set of tables describing the energy levels of a helium atom, the first time this had been done accurately..

So how has Moore's Law affected this process, ask Koutschan and Zeilberger.

They repeated Pekeris' project using the modern tools of computer science to see how they compare.

They say that the numeric computation--the work done by WEIZAC--can be completed in a fraction of a second on any laptop such as Pavilion dv9000(Hp dv9000 battery) and Hp PB991A.

They also point out that the programming is much easier too, thanks to the many high level programming languages available today. Few people these days have to mess around with machine code, thankfully.

But perhaps the most surprising thing is that the algebra for working out the differential equations can also be done much faster today using computer algebra programs such as Mathematica and Maple.

Koutschan and Zeilberger say they were able to condense this part of the project, which took Pekeris at least 20-hours, into a 2-hour session.

That's a fascinating study and counterintuitive in some ways too. While it's easy to see the many orders of magnitude improvement that has improved hardware, it's clear from this work that the speed up from software is more limited.

In particular, an order of magnitude improvement--from 20 hours to 2 hours--in the time it takes to do the algebra for this problem is a surprisingly small improvement over a 50 year period.

But given the nature of the problem, it's hard to imagine how further order of magnitude improvements can be possible. What kind of computer algebra software could allow a human to program it work out these kind of differential equations in minutes or seconds.

Of course the limiting factor here is not the software but the 'wetware'. Which means that the next generation of improvements will either have to focus on improving the wetware or taking it out of the loop entirely.

What is Cloud Computing Technology - Should Businesses Switch Over?

First, we start outsourcing on business services. Then we continue on with our information technology division.

Another latest development in business at present is the sourcing of information technology (IT) services from a third party to the business transaction which is technically known as cloud computing. Instead of businesses creating an IT department for its technological and communication needs, what they can do is to resort to cloud computing service providers. Among the popular forms of cloud computing are the social networking, web-based e-mail, and the document, spreadsheet, and other hosting services. One of the most popular among the cloud computing services now is Google's google docs.

How it Works
Most businesses deal with problems on administering their IT system due to the cost it incurs when they need to administer their private websites and servers.To solve it, what businesses must have are database service providers with low cost.

Cloud computing comes as the best solution for businesses to overcome issues like budget management, accounting, and data protection.

These virtual computing resources are provided through online servers and data centers to users with access to the system. They are connected to each other via the Internet. By being connected with the Internet, front and end users can avail of this cloud computing system.

Let's have Google as an example. Google Docs is the back end which runs on a shared data center with your business which is the front end. You use Google docs to go and utilize the stored data any time you need to work on them. You can access your files even when you are away from your work provided that you're connected on the Internet.

Cloud computing is also applied in computer games and data processing applications like the game applications we have on Facebook.

Majority businesses normally use this innovative development for services which are related to data storage. Small business are becoming more industrious at work as they use cloud computing for their database work. There is no need for business owners to establish an expensive IT department just to keep their business going. These services bring a handful of cloud computing benefits to your businesses. Let us glance at the benefits businesses may get by resorting into it.

Relevance to your Business
Most businesses are absolutely concerned at systems back-ups and updates. They might have difficulties on updating the files and keeping those already stored. With cloud computing, you do not need to be bothered about these because it reflexively do those two for you.

You and your workers can have easy access on the data and other things relevant to the business at anytime and anywhere when you need them. They can also communicate with their superior even if away from the office because the system connects them via the Internet.

Further, you get to reduce budget on holding a new group to run your business' database wing with cloud computing. And since the system involved in it is not complex, you save your time to focus on other responsibilities. Now you can concentrate more on the other aspects of your business.

You have a qualified IT source right at your fingertips. You don't have to be so much worried about the administrative things in your business. Let your cloud computing service provider make it for you.

Computer Fraud

Computer Fraud

Before the advent of computers, confidence schemes and other types of fraud often required the criminals to meet with their victims face-to-face, deal with them over the phone, or by mail. These methods often put the criminal at risk of being identified and apprehended later by a positive identification.

Many crimes committed over the internet are perpetrated by nameless, faceless attackers that can commit their crimes and fraudulent acts from anywhere in the world. Because of the relative simplicity of fraud and internet crimes, criminals have been able to devise many ways of bilking people out of money and property.

Types of Fraud:

There are many different types of fraud, but common cases often include:

•  Online confidence schemes
•  Internet investment fraud
•  Computer hacking
•  Account and credit card number theft
•  Theft of personal information
•  Hacking into computer systems to alter or delete information

It is important for people to be aware of the potential for computer fraud and to protect themselves and their property from theft.

Although most people are aware that they should be wary of their actions on the internet and should set up some sort of protection, many do not know the right steps to take.

Protecting Against Computer Fraud

People can follow several steps to protect themselves against computer fraud including:

•  Install and use anti-spyware programs to avoid the theft of personal information
•  Password protect valuable documents and computer files
•  Do not give anyone your personal passwords and do not use the same password for every file

•  Make sure to change passwords frequently and do not use commonly known information like first, middle, or last names, birthdates or other information that would be easy to decipher.
•  Use firewall software to provide extra protection against hackers and outside threats.
•  Make sure to double-check account balances and immediately report suspicious activity on any accounts.
•  Do not make online purchases through websites that do not have security settings.
•  Do not divulge personal information online to anyone that you do not know or trust.

Computer Fraud and Criminal Defense

Computer fraud is a serious crime and can result in criminal prosecution, fines, and jail time if an individual is found guilty.  If you have been wrongly accused of computer fraud, visit the website of the Milwaukee criminal attorneys of Kohler & Hart, LLP.

Technology & Communication

A study a couple of years ago found that 63% of executives were making fewer business trips because of technology.

Instead of a plane trip, face-to-face meetings and a plane trip back, they used email, videoconferencing, or online meetings, according to the Accountemps study.

If you're a manager who's spending less time with a suitcase and more with a mouse, you'll want to pay attention to the nature of the media we use, and especially when sending important messages.

A few years ago we heard a lot about etiquette in electronic messaging (netiquette) on the Internet, about needing to be conscious of how messages might be misconstrued by receivers. One of the ideas to come out of that effort was emoticons, little text symbols that aimed to make up for the loss of facial expressions and body language.

Emoticons and netiquette have pretty much disappeared, but the world of electronic communication still can be a dangerous place.

And especially dangerous if the stakes are high, as they're likely to be when managers communicate this way.

So, let's further explore some issues that arise when we communicate electronically, rather than face-to-face.

In my limited experience with videoconferencing, for example, I found I had to work harder just catch the words, which reduced the amount facial expression information I took in. And, if the camera adjusted to take in more facial expressions, then some body language was lost.

Think, too, about the differences in messages sent by email versus those sent as conventional printed letters. Email certainly leads to faster responses and greater efficiency. However, when sending a printed letter we proofread it both on the screen and in print.

And, the time between our initial thoughts and sending the letter is longer. That provides time for second thoughts, sober or otherwise, thoughts that might be wiser or better expressed.

Here's one more challenge: I recently looked at the idea of being an online seminars facilitator. Participants would take part through their computers. In addition to getting a voice feed, they would also watch the screen, which would be divided into three active sections. One portion would carry my notes, another would show reader questions, and a third would show something else.

As the presenter, I think I could handle the sending. But, how would receivers handle these flows of information? In person, it's easy to watch a speaker, see her slides on screen, and listen to her at the same time. But, is it the same taking in all this information when it comes through a computer screen and speakers?

Don't get me wrong. I like new technologies, not because they're replacing something else, but because they offer new options. Whether through access, price, or interactivity level, new technology opens doors to communicators.

But, we need to think about the implications for receivers when we communicate through new media. Come to think of it, didn't Marshall McLuhan write the book on this a generation ago?

In summary: With more managers communicating through new technologies, rather than travel and face-to-face meetings, we need to consider what can happen to important messages when they are transmitted through the new media.

Computer Games; the Next Technological Generation is Evolving Fast

Have you ever considered where innovation comes from? It comes from a number of places and perhaps we need to look at Maslow's "hierarchy of needs" to fully understand this. For instance, self preservation is a really high on the Maslow's hierarchy pyramid, people don't want to die so they will pay lots of money for technologies which keep them alive. This is why there's so much research and development money going to the healthcare, and medical devices, pharmaceuticals and new procedures and equipment.

Military technology is another place where lots of money is spent. No one wants their civilization to be crushed by another group of people who come in and kill everyone in the population. Further, people want to live free, and they will spend lots of money to ensure that they have a strong military so they can live in freedom.

For those that reached Maslow's hierarchy of needs in the upper echelon of the pyramid, they have reached self-actualization and they will spend lots of money being entertained and having a good feeling.

Therefore, you can expect lots of money in the entertainment business.

Perhaps, it is for this reason that so much money is spent on the development of computer games. And the next technological breakthroughs for computer games is evolving fast. There are now games that can incite brain waves based on what is happening inside the game. For instance, if there is a conflict it will increase your heart rate, make you scared. There are also new developments of holographic imagery so you will be immersed in a virtual reality environment.

The video games of the future will be so real you won't be able to tell you're in a video game.

That's how fast things are evolving and why many hard-core computer gamers can't wait. The future looks very bright and interesting for the industry. Please consider all this.

Computer Preservation

In recent years, the world has grow to be technology driven and something critical tool behind all this that we no longer can do without is the computer. It is the basis of most of the operations that people have in business, in training, in communication and entertainment, and it went way past only the storage of information. The computer has created plenty of our work easier, and once it comes to be integrated with the internet, the range of applications that exist are just unbelievable. This is just what draws many of us to purchase this device.

However, just as it is with other electronic devices, the computer needs to be properly maintained so that it performs at its peak, and for quite a while, because these things do not come cheap. You should ensure that as you buy the computer, especially if it is a desktop computer, that you get dust covers for the electronic device. This is so as to prevent the dust from building up on the monitor or into the hardware of the computer that could ruin its proper working.
The computer should also be kept clean so that it is able to perform the duties you want it to as you expect. Dust is one thing that could be quite damaging to the parts of the computer, especially the CPU. Do not just clean the outside, but the more valuable inside. There are tools available in the market that is just appropriate for this. If you are still not sure about how to go about this process, you could hire a qualified technician who would be happy to doo this and you would not have to fear about getting the computer damaged in the process.
When it comes to the software of the computer, proper file management is essential to the great performance of a computer. One thing that you could do is to delete files that you no longer use, especially if they are two years old or more. Such files are said to reduce the processing speed of the computer which is one of the important aspects of the computer. You should also install a great anti-virus program. Viruses are really dangerous to the proper working if a computer and you should not even think twice about the antivirus, and as long as you are using your computer, especially the internet you should invest in a proper antivirus.

Computers and IT - Computer Equipment Repair

Computers are the very driving force that have lead to the creation of the world of information technology. Simply put, the computer revolution is what has made the development of information technology age possible. IT is now responsible for the manner in which a significant amount of all monetary transactions take place in the world today. IT is also responsible for the way in which information is exchanged and accessed across offices and borders. Put simply, IT is the defining force in the way we view the world today.

Having the right type of computer set-up and IT support can have a huge impact on the success of your business or organisation. Setting up computers with the configurations required by your office and equipping all of them with the necessary software can be a daunting task. Additionally, you will need to set up computer-to-computer systems that will allow individuals within your office to share and view information on a common office network system.

Lastly, you will need to ensure that information is secured and traceable so that there cannot be a security breach that allows important information to fall into the wrong hands.

Setting up a viable and functional computer network in your office or place or work is a laborious task. Besides the necessary expertise in network software, there is also a fair amount of physical labour that is required. Dozens of cables need to connected individually and then routed to a central server bank or server room. This is a job that requires a fair bit of planning and cannot be handled with prior experience and training. This is where companies like Wizard Communication come into the picture. Wizard Communication has a dedicated team of professionals who have been handling all sizes of installations for many years.

Computer Viruses

In information security , computer virus is a manmade program or piece of code that is loaded onto your computer without your knowledge and runs against your wishes. From behavior computer virus in a way is a similar biological virus which pervasions by inserting itself into living cells. Cell by cell and all organisms (computer) is ridden virus cells.


Without computer viruses there are separated two other types of malicious computer programs - viruses.


Trojan Horses


As already from this virus type name we can imagine, Trojan horses are programs that pretend to be legitimate software, but actually carry out hidden, harmful functions. Trojans can’t replicate themselves that mean, they can’t expand so fast as other virus types. But often they work together with viruses.


Worms


Worms are similar to viruses but do not need a carrier program or document.

Worms simply create exact copies of themselves and use communications between computers, for example e-mail, to spread.There are different types of computer viruses with different influence. Some viruses are fairly harmless or only annoying, but there are viruses that can create inconceivable damages.


Some things what virus can do with computer:


* Slow down e-mail – generating huge e-mail traffic and slowing down servers;


* Steal confidential data – for example, recording user’s keystrokes;


* Use your computer to attack websites;


* Let other user hijack your computer – allowing to connect to your computer and use it for their own purpose;


* Corrupt data – making changes in some documents;


* Delete data – all or only some part data on your HDD;


* Play pranks;


* Damage credibility – forwarding itself from your computer to your friends or even business partners;


* Cause embarrassment - for example, replacing one word in all documents with other.


Every year computer viruses activity brings to company several million dollars damages. Year for year this number of damage increase!


Because it is so important that every people get information security awareness training!

The Touch Free solution is implemented in software rather than using a special type of camera, thus it should fare well on upcoming phones. In addition are the new devices, like Android-based tablets and music players.

Technology has seeped into every aspect of our lives today. And to keep pace with the latest emerging technology is becoming more and more important in today's scenario. If you are in the information technology field, you have have to be aware of the latest trends in technology. To be in the mainstream means to keep an eye on the each and every news related to technology. Whether it is Linux, Solaris or Windows operating system, or it is a complex technology like virtualization, you have to have a clear understanding of every emerging technology. Articles on new technology and news about latest technology can help one to make his way into the complex maze of new computer technology. Every other day an IT giant releases a new patch of software and every new fortnight a new software is released based on a radically new technology. The latest technology buzz like Microsoft Lucidtouch, Sun Solaris have become must know technology terms.

Some of the latest technologies that are going to revolutionize their respective field are

1.) Taptu: Looking for a search engine for your iPhone that is touch friendly and allows to search the web with ease? Taptu may be the answer. Taptu is a mobile search engine that just released its iPhone version that can be downloaded from Apple App Store for free.The new search engine is user friendly and quick. According to Taptu blog, it has more than 3 million webpages currently in its index.

2.) Opera Unite: Opera has launched a new technology that can turn your PC into a personal web server running inside Opera web browser. That server can be used to share everything from files to music with other computers on the web without the need of 3rd party applications. Named Opera Unite, the technology has just been released and promises to make your computer more that just a dumb terminal.

These are just two of the numerous technologies coming our way at the speed of light.

As a coordinator for a think tank online, I take about 50 technology e-mail newsletters, many of them are daily, but most are weekly and lately they've been filled with none other than Apple's latest technology or their exploits in the marketplace. Believe it or not folks there is more to technology than Apple. The personal tech sector is only one of many sub-sectors of the technology category. There is military technology, space technology, alternative energy technology, automotive advanced technologies, and there is nanotech, biotech, and aerospace technologies.

Not long ago, I was discussing this with an acquaintance of mine, about the over 40,000 Apple iPhone applications, and all the new applications coming forth for the new iPad.

Atm Technology In Computer Networking

ATM meaning (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is one of the most efficient virtual network technology providing high speed connections along with dedicated paths. This technology operates on cell based fast packet switching communication method. One of the best advantages of ATM technology is that it is able to support a transfer rate between 1.544 Mbps to 10 Gbps.
The means of connections involved in ATM allows running parallel connections within a full dedicated mode. This all allows support to multiple conversations along with eliminating the need for a bandwidth connection. There is no issue what so ever located to data bottlenecks that is most commonly found on shared networks such as Token Ring, Ethernet and FDDI.
The data transferred within an ATM network is in the form of switched virtual circuitry. This type of (SVC) connection is connected between the sender and receiver. This information gets converted in to fixed lengths of cells which gets reassembled and gets transferred at the destination.
The reliability of the ATM Network depends upon the digital lines used to ensure the integrity of the data. This ATM network doesn't support any error correction protocol. There can be numerous amounts of re-transmissions that can take place within an ATM network.
The bandwidth of these ATM'S is dedicated and capable of supporting intensive amount of both real and non-real time applications. These are able to support all multimedia application along with high resolution computer graphics as well. The throughput provided by an ATM technology is one of the best solutions for all emerging applications like combing audio, voice along with animations as well. Although, there are various other technologies which ensure high profile bandwidth because of rich media usage but ATM is found to be most effective solution because of its fixed packet size and implementation simplicity.
These ATM is one of such technology that has got a great future within years to comes as these ATM could easily get installed over an existing network without feeling the need for going upgrading the local area network or even a metropolitan network a real example is a DSL connection from an ISP to an end user.

Ethernet Technology

People has known the Ethernet technology since coaxial cable connection system was created to comprise of various computers and technological devices by PARC or Palo Alto Research Center Inc. (then known as XEROX PARC). Therefore, it is the oldest yet mostly used for networking until the present day.

 

Three years later, a partial draft version was finished and prepared for testing. It was announced successful not only because a connection between two computers were made, but also because data transfer fruitfully took place with the speed of 3 megabytes per second.

 

The term Ethernet was formed by putting words Ether and Net together. Ether was picked because of the use of Fiber Optics, where light is the medium of data transportation. Net is an abbreviation for network, the community of link computers.

With its promising action of making computer connectivities possible, Ethernet later on gave life to what we now know as Local Area Networks (LANs).

 

Ethernet works by linking computers and other devices through cables. One end of these cables is connected to the computer, and the other is to a connector. These connectors could be Repeaters, Hubs or Switches. Connectors, such as the three, are grouped according to how they do their role in the system. Ethernet applies the cause-and-effect approach.

 

Firstly, a computer will summon a signal where it embeds a message. With the help of cables, the signal travels from its origin to the connector and then from the connector to the accepting computer. When the assigned computer catches the signal, it will transmit its own back to the sender and react according to the prompted information.

 

In a standard network, all connected computers have exactly the same boundaries.

But in more complex and larger networks, there are usually one or two computers that are in control of the interactions of the entire network.

 

In the present, the Ethernet technology is available in many versions. The earliest ones are the 10BASE5 (the very first standard), 10BROAD36 (the first standard that allowed long-distance connections), 10BASE2 (also known as the Cheapernet) and 1BASE5 (said to be a failure but started the following developments in Ethernet technology).

 

The more modernized generation of the technology came with different speed performances. The 10 megabit Ethernet was the first to step out of the previous 1Mbit/second rating. And then the Fast Ethernet, which upholds the rate of 100Mbit per second, dethroned the previous by executing ten times higher.

 

And then the Gigabit Ethernet was born, priding itself with an even more edgy speed of 1 gigabyte per second data transmission. The Gigabit Ethernet soon opened doors for the 10 Gigabit Ethernet, the variant that surpassed its already-powerful precedent. And today, the public is only waiting for newer versions 40 and 100 Gigabit to be released.

 

It is hard to imagine where we would be now without the presence of networking technologies such as the Ethernet. Even the simplest of daily actions would be very bothersome when networking automation is erased. And so, we would always have to be thankful that Ethernet was formalized and born into our world.

 

Music Technology

The term music technology actually refers to the devices, techniques, styles, or effects which music artists use to enhance or even create a musical piece. One of the most common application of music technology is the music editing software that a lot of music artists use so that they may be able to arrange their songs easily.

Other may also use special effects which may contribute to the improvement of the song being created. A lot of musical genres such as techno use this kind of music technology in enhancing the outcome of a single music. Almost all of the techno songs nowadays are produced using computer editing software or computer-generated sounds or special effects.

This only shows that the technology itself is a broad field and is not only limited to one particular field.

Everything is possible with technology as long as you know how to use it properly. If you want to further your knowledge with music technology, you may find a university which offers this particular type of course. There are actually numerous universities nowadays which offer a course in music technology. The scope in the course music technology is not only limited to the music industry that we know today because it may also tackle programming, acoustic science, and music theories.

Music technology is actually a combination of two different fields namely music and technology. With this reason, it is just right that a student of someone who wants to know more about music technology itself should be knowledgeable of both music and technology.

This is to ensure that he will be able to cope with the challenges that he might encounter along the way.

If you are the type of person who knows a lot when it comes to computers and you also love music, then you should consider music technology as a viable career for you.

Introduction

Technology can be regarded as a use of knowledge and tools As well as systems in performing a given duty to produce a better results in an easy way. Technology can also be said is a use of materials to perform a duty and the results in a more convenient manner. Technology has an effect on the way human does his job and also in ability on how he would adapt to his environment. The use of technology begun with the use of natural resources to make simple tools that were used to make work easy and have a control on what is being done. Technology has benefits to human and his working environment.

Benefits of technology

There are several benefits that are associated with technology and have helped in different ways in performing different tasks in different fields. Most companies are concentration on advancing their technology so as they can be able to have better income and improve performance in different fields of work.

Technology has helped in different fields in the company including networking. Initially, networking was done manually with use of connecting cables but now, with advancement of technology, it has become possible to have wireless connectivity of networks (Ambrose, 2001). This may include the LAN (Local area networking) or the WAN (Wide area networking). With proper implementation of networking technology, it provides unique capabilities to the users as well as the administrators. There are association of network and software. They work together to provide connections of different networks which in turn have become beneficial to all who uses the implemented network (Ruth, 1999).

Computers have helped in different ways. Initially, for example, mails were just sent on written form on papers, but with the advancement of technology and software, it has become possible for people to send electronic mails over the internet which is fast and instant, provided the send and the receiver are interconnected and they have the required infrastructure. The network technology have shortened the distance between the sender and the receiver of information, for instance, with a computer and internet connections and live chat software, it has been possible to have a live chat between individuals no matter the distance and in some cases an online conferencing (Frank, 2007).

Technology has also made it possible for sharing hardware in the organization. For instance, an organization may have different individuals on computers and in different departments are able to use one printer. This is a benefit of networking in an organization which was initially done through either connecting the printer to the processing computer or save the data to be printed to a portable devise and use the connected computer to print the document.

Networking technology has on the other hand helped in data management. The data that has been store in the system is easily accessible from anywhere by the users. This helps in managing data as it can be edited, improved or added from any corner provided there is connection. Initially, it was hard to manage data outside the organization as this was only done in a specific computer (Oakley, 1976).

Conclusion

Technology has really changed how work is done. Through the technology, most jobs are well done and take shorter duration than before the inclusion of technology in the work. It has helped save space as there are some of the devises that are being shared probably by the whole organization. Technology has made work easy and fast. With technology, time management has become very possible

Latest Computer Technologies

The world has changed a lot in the last decade and people have improved their living standards as well. The basic reason for this improvement in the last decade is the introduction of new technology. There have been a number of revolutions in new technology over the last decade, and progress is continually being made. Computing has changed as well. Now, users are not always aware of the myriad services they enjoy on a daily basis. They receive services, but they no clear concept of how these services work. They have only a basic idea of the services, but the platform of that service is hidden. Cloud computing is a type of computing in which a user cannot pinpoint the exact physical location of the service provider. They have the ability to access some services and they can utilize them as well, but there would be no chance for them to follow their data through the whole cycle.
Cloud computing utilizes a combination that includes numbers of services to the users. All users can access network storage, software and many other resources, but the exact location of the server and processing is a complete cloud for all these users. They could never guess the exact location of these resources. They get services from the network, but this network is actually a combination of different service providers. The concept of virtualization is also regarded as the same, and it can be considered the next alternative of this style of computing. This alternative concept means that there would be something in particular that is not actually there in a physical way. There is something hidden, which we call virtual.
This is quite relevant to the new style of computing in which users are unable to find the platforms of the services they use. They could be using some advanced networking features like NAS storage, and they would still be unaware about the exact location. This is the new style of technology, and the Internet has played a great role in the improvisation of this new computing style. Users are able to access the servers that provide them services. They are utilizing the services of all those servers, but they are unable to know that if the server is located in their own country or not. People all over the world use computers and they do get in touch over the Internet as well.

Difference Between Computer Leasing and Computer Renting

If you are thinking of a new computer yet do not wish to buy, you should be wondering whether computer leasing is the way forward of, rather than a computer lease, you should rent.

 

Well, it all rather depends on what you need your computer for. Computer leasing and computer renting seem similar. They are not.

 

Computer Leasing is the ideal option if you want IT equipment without using valuable cash flow to purchase a computer or network of computers plus the additional costs of insurance and technical support.

 

A lease agreement with an IT financing company is for a set period. Payments are typically monthly and usually with technical support included in the computer lease package.

 

At the end of the computer lease agreement the financing company may allow you to sell the IT equipment and keep the proceeds.

If you break the computer lease agreement within the time specified there may be a penalty payable to the IT equipment financing company.

 

The main benefit of computer leasing is that it costs a lot less at the outset than buying. It certainly makes sense for small businesses with little capital to take an IT equipment financing lease. Remember also, it is a flexible and tax- efficient way of supporting your business.

 

Computer Renting is right for you if you need a computer just temporarily.

 

For example if, say, you were to set up a computer training session, or asked to make a presentation to a convention, rather than taking all your own IT equipment, or be involved in a long term computer lease, you could rent the set-up for a one-off fee and then return it at the end of the event.

 

Classroom Technology Problems and Solutions

If you are like most teachers, you want to find a way to integrate technology in your classroom. It's a digital world full of computers, and you would be doing your students a disservice if you kept them in a state of Luddite ignorance about today's technologies.

However, many teachers run up against problems when they try to use technology more often. Some of these problems are age-old, while you are only likely to encounter others when you integrate technology in your classroom. How many of these have you encountered?

Problem 1: I don't have enough money for a class full of computers.
Computers aren't the only form of technology you can use. Even a video player with a TV program you recorded is a form of technology that can bring variety and add interest to your classroom presentations. The same applies to DVD presentations.

However, as computers are becoming more and more important, most teachers will want to use them at some stage in their teaching career. Having an old-fashioned fundraiser can help you get some of the resources you need, and schools can often apply for grants to get a good computer system for classroom use. However, one of the easiest ways to get a number of computers when you want to integrate technology in your classroom is to find a local business that is wanting to upgrade its office equipment - are they willing to donate their old, unwanted computers to the school (maybe for a bit of free publicity)? You won't end up with the latest flash-bang machines, but what you get will be good enough.

Problem 2: My students always copy and paste text off the internet (plagiarism).
This isn't a new problem, so solve it how you always have by oral testing. In the past, students were always prone to copying things out of encyclopedias without much thought going into their projects or assignments. The easiest way to overcome this is to make it quite clear that (a) you will be testing them orally on the content of their project or paper (and thus will be able to pick up if they haven't learned what was in the paper), (b) any plagiarism will result in automatic failure.

Problem 3: The parents are afraid that students will access objectionable material such as pornography.
Use the "history" tool in your given browser, or use a software package that screens out objectionable sites. The first option is preferable - all you have to do is to patrol the classroom regularly while computers are in use, and do an end-of-day check (I know, this is one of the harder parts when you integrate technology in your classroom) of the online history. Site-screening software can block harmless sites by mistake - I have met teachers who have seen the decorous poem "The Rape of the Lock" blocked from a literature class because of its title, and software that does simplistic things such as blocking any site with the word "sex" in it will be a real nuisance for a biology class investigating sex-linked genetic characteristics (and will block this harmless page you are viewing now: QED).

Problem 4:My students go into relaxed entertainment mode when the video player comes out.
Careful planning and avoiding common mistakes will help improve your video lessons and avoid "TV mode".

Extensive usage of computer technology in the engineering machineries

The value that computer and its application have added to the life of mankind is appreciable and the benefits are growing with the time, the application of computer based devices has become popular in almost every sector. Medical, educational, automobiles and other industries, computer technology is used everywhere. Throughout last few years the usage of computer numeric control (CNC) has increased in manufacturing units and engineering lab equipments.

The application of CNC technology is on its rapid pace in the lathes and turning machines for yielding better performance. The usage of these machines is done in manufacturing high end and giant level engineering elements and the computer technology has made the engineering and manufacturing operation easier and comparatively more accurate than manual operations.

Engineers who perform the machinery manufacturing operations are trained and prepared to perform well during their academic period of engineering studies.

In engineering collages to demonstrate the engineering students at the time of academic training, the models of machines to be used in actual operations are used. These models are designed exactly similar to the actual lathes, turners and other equipments. In the mechanical engineering laboratories Heat Transfer lab equipments, CNC Lathe Trainer (Micro Turn), CNC Lathe Trainer (Power Turn), CNC Mill Trainer (Micro Mill) and CNC Mill Trainer (Power Mill) are used to demonstrate the working of actual machines at the time of manufacturing, turning and lathe functioning.

CNC Lathe Trainer (Micro Turn) is the trainer that is compact in size and shapes and it is specially designed to meet the academic practical and demonstration class requirements. Though, these trainers are designed as per the industrial machine tools standards and these trainers can perform the task of cutting the metal such as steel, aluminium, acrylic, brass etc like the original CNC lathes.

Looking at the diverse demand and requirements of theses mechanical equipments in the industries and machineries, it can be easily figured out that the performance of these equipments and components in the industrial field. The usage and application of these elements has become more trouble-free as the modern CNC systems work as end-to-end components that are highly automated using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing programs. Hence the increased adoption of automated machine tools is the clear example of acceptance of easier and lighter ways of functioning. To cater the wide demand generated by the modern technology user industries, a bunch of manufacturers are striving to update them with newest and excellent technology.

When you are prepared to take your actual IT examination then you can schedule with prometric or pearsonvue online. Here is a tip on purchasing study material: do not buy any study material such as guides or preparation questions that are old because Microsoft, Novell and all others change their material every 3 to 4 months. This will ensure that you will have up to date documents that will help you in passing.



Information technology news and technical data pertaining to certification exam training is the main purpose of this site. Many people do not know the difference between computer training and IT preparation for the final. I would like to inform everyone what the differences are. Computer training is classroom education with scheduled courses or online study about the career field pertaining to information technology. Let me explain! You may want to become a Server Administrator. To begin with you will need some education somewhere in order to be knowledgeable about the subject and maybe acquire a 2 or 4-year degree or receive some online education with a qualified instructor. You may just want to take a few courses and receive a certificate in this field. This would be considered computer training.



Information technology certification exam training is what you need in order to be fully prepared to pass your final test. After computer training you may have a degree or a certificate but you still do not have an official document that is recognized by Microsoft, CIW and Comptia or any other. If you have computer education that qualifies you to be a Server Administrator then you will want to get certified in Microsoft, CIW, MCDST, MCITP Certification or CISCO. Certification exam education concentrates on preparing you to pass your final test. An IT certification assessment is unlike any other analysis that you have had in college or school. There are two very important things to consider when preparing for a certificate test. They are the proper study technique and having relevant material that pertains to the actual exam that is up to date with the current market.



There are only a handful of places online that offer certification exam training. There are many students of information technology that want data on free practice exam questions and free computer training as well as paid because they are serious about passing their official recognition assessment on the very first try. This site is not about selling but about helping those who are not informed about the many different certifications and proper preparation like practice test questions and study guides.



Another purpose of this site is education concerning information technology to obtain a certificate. There are many colleges and online educational sites that will prepare you for a particular subject or field but there are but a few places where you can find information technology certification exam preparation and free IT training.



Say you want to become a PC Technician and you study at a college or receive online training so that you are knowledgeable about that field and receive a diploma or certificate in that area but you still are not certified until you take the final test. Even after graduation you will need to schedule an IT final test with prometric or pearsonvue in order to be certified in the field that you desire.



How many places do you know where you can get the schooling on how to pass your information technology certification exam. This kind of education is not the same as computer training. You will need knowledge of how to study for your certificate test and to know the proper study techniques because an IT assessment is not the same as the exams in school. You will also need to know where to get updated material about your computer certification test because if you have studying material that is outdated then you will not pass.



Certification exam training is important if you plan on passing your on the first time so you can avoid multiple testing fees. Some people may already be working on the job in the profession that they desire, such as a Server Administrator, Desktop Support Technician or a PC Repair Technician. They may have had prior training before employment but have never acquired a certificate. They probably know their job and are very knowledgeable about their work and field but need a certificate because their employer requires it. They do not need any computer education. They only need certification exam preparation so they can pass their final. I hope you get the picture now.



How many places do you know where you can get the schooling on how to pass your information technology certification exam. This kind of education is not the same as computer training. You will need knowledge of how to study for your certificate test and to know the proper study techniques because an IT assessment is not the same as the exams in school. You will also need to know where to get updated material about your computer certification test because if you have studying material that is outdated then you will not pass.

Computers And Technology

Nowadays the usage of a computer and technology is very common. There are two ways to use this machine. First is input and second is output. There are many devices of input and output of this machine available. This appliance and its technology includes many parts like internet, computer networking, call center, telecommunications, software, web hosting and domain registration, mobile phones, hardware, its security. One of the more active areas in regard to computers and technology law involves issues stemming from copyright. When it comes to computers, the Internet and technology law, copyright issues have become very commonplace. Protecting copyright interests with the growth of the Internet has become particularly problematic.

Other Internet Tools and Software are available to fix problems involving the Internet when your machine becomes saddled with Spyware and Adware. These unwelcome programs enable outside individuals and companies to spy on your web browsing activities and invade your privacy. 'Scan your Computer for Free' programs are available to effectively eliminate these nasties. Also, most people are aware of virus infections in one's PC and there are good AntiVirus programs, which will keep your PC safe.One of the reasons I make this statement is because someone mentioned in an article about the slicing of food on the kitchen in virtual reality and the sound of the knife in EOX (basically that is surround-a-sound) and the granularity (individual animated pixels) dividing the object and yes all that is good for action sequences, explosions, car crashes in video games,While you can use the same method as I stated above to find computer information and articles, you can do the same with technology information. The problem with that though is you can never really be sure the author knows what they are talking about.

Businesses that lease and finance their technology needs are often working better within their capital budgets. Simply speaking they can buy more and buy smarter. Many companies that are larger in size have balance sheet issues and ROA (return on assets) issues that are compelling.While computers and technology make it much easier to spend more time enjoying these kinds of leisurely activities, they also make it much easier for us to lose connection with real people. By purchasing insurance online, you're saving time and effort, but you're also losing the important, yet overlooked, benefit of speaking with an insurance agent one-on-one, face-to-face.The automation and computerization in food processing units is facing lots of challenges if they are used nearby water catastrophic effects on any computer system. Most food processing units prefer waterproof computers to protect their computer systems from drenching in the production area.

How Computer Technology Helps In Education?

Computer has become the prime thing now a day. Everything is done with the help of computer be it booking tickets for films or ordering pizzas for home. In offices where previously files used to be maintained in papers, now everything has been converted into digital form. All the files are saved in the computer memory. The new generation does not understand anything beyond computers. They have almost forgotten how to socialize with others because when they come back at home, the only thing they do is sit in front of the computer.

Even in the schools, computer plays a vital role. One has to be a computer literate even to get a job. Employers do not recruit employees who do not have any knowledge about computers. Education with computer knowledge can be made a precious resource not only for students but also for teachers, educators and even parents.

Before educating the students with knowledge of computer, teachers should get the knowledge properly. The more teachers will know about computers, the more they can teach the students in a proper way. The knowledge of both teachers and students should not be stuck in computers only, there is a much worthy and interesting thing beyond that and that is Internet.

Schools should provide the students with the opportunity to access the Internet and the World Wide Web to develop knowledge of high quality to use the current technology. Earlier, computer technology in schools used to be considered as luxury but now it has become more of a requirement than luxury for students. Every student or even those who are no more a student now have a personal computer at their homes be it a desktop or a laptop. The use of computers application is quite a necessary thing because it helps a person to maintain relation with the real world applications.

Many people say computer technology distracts students from studies and destroys their creativity skill. But it completely depends upon the individual how the person is taking the education through computers. Using anything with a bad or useless intention will result negative. If it is used with an intention to gather knowledge then it will definitely result in a positive way. Children should be guided by the teachers or educators as well as by the parents about the right use of computers.

Apart from studies, computers are also used for other works. After the advent of computers and internet people have stopped sending letters to each other. Instead of sending letters they send e-mails now. In fact, people do not go to different organizations or offices to submit their resumes; they simplify the work by submitting it online. Now the world is not like earlier. Since, every country has its access to Internet; it has become easier to make deals with various countries at a time.In education, subjects like math have become easier for students as it takes a few seconds to solve the equations. Computers are also used vastly by students for their projects and assignments. A single box can solve so many problems. Isn’t it great?

Computer Monitors

Computers and the Internet have changed and continue to change the world. The computer is the vehicle that is introducing the world to technological advancements and medical and social achievements. Computer monitors are the windows of this new world and they continue to improve in quality and performance. The computer monitor of ten years ago is not the same visual display unit it is now, but it’s still a piece of electrical equipment which can display a wide range of images from the video output of different computers, without creating a permanent record. The display device used to display images today is a thin film transistor liquid crystal display also known as TFT-LCD. The older monitors used a CRT or cathode ray tube.


Measuring computer monitors is a bit confusing. The measurement is based on the CRT television method, which was used when round picture tubes were popular.

They were circular, so they only needed a diameter measurement to describe the tube size. When CRT tubes were manufactured as rectangles this method was still used, so the distance between two opposite corners is given as the screen size, even though it does not take into account the aspect ratios differences of monitors with the same diagonal size. The shape of a diagonal area decreases as it becomes less square, so the measurement system is a not accurate, in terms of square inches for monitors with the same diagonal size. Another issue with screen size is the size of the imaging element, which is distorted by media advertising campaigns. Viewable size is more important than measuring the image element size, which can be hidden behind the case’s shroud.


Image technology continues to improve. TFT-LCDs are the most popular monitors, the old passive LCDs had a slow response time and the contrast was poor. They started to be replaced in the mid 1990s. Other types of visual displays include the Penetron and the Plasma Display along with the old CRT.


The LCD is light, compact and rugged and there is no geometric distortion, but it has a low contrast ratio, uneven back lighting and slow response times, which can cause ghosting. The Penetron Military Aircraft Display has high contrast ratios and is extremely sharp, although there are only four color displays. The Plasma also has high contrast ratios and a high speed response, excellent color and a low black level, but it has lower resolution on a large screen and there is a noticeable flicker when the display is viewed close range.


Today’s computer monitors can display an infinite number of colors by continuously changing the intensities in the RBG color space, which is the red, green and blue analog video signals. New connectors are replacing both analog and digital signals with digital only video signals, which have integrated data and video connections. Other new features include multiple monitor capabilities, which can show the identical image called mirroring and extension monitoring, which shows different images but it does require extra hardware and software support. There’s no doubt than computer monitors will continue to improve in quality as well as functionality. The touchscreen technology is opening the doors for another giant leap in the virtual display industry.

Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is a technology that makes use of Internet and central remote servers to maintain and process data and applications. Cloud Computing is an emerging field in technology that finds a better solution to all business men especially of small organizations to prosper their business. Cloud computing provides various services and advantages to its customers.

Imagine that you are the CEO of a company. In order for your business to go on you are required to buy the costlier software, say Oracle, and you will have to pay for it in order to enjoy its benefits to the fullest. Moreover you will have to pay its maintenance fee every time. Your job doesn't end here. You will have to see the right set of hardware and software need to be provided for the subordinates. Once your organizations requirements seem to increase you will have to hire new employees which again require purchase of hardwares and softwares.

What else is needed for you to panic day and night!! Small organizations have no scope to survive in these conditions.

Well, cloud computing is a better solution to your problem. All you need for incorporating this technology is just an Internet connection!! And you require no softwares to be bought or installed other than the application software which runs the Internet.

 

 

 

 

 

What is Cloud computing?

Cloud computing is simply like utility computing where the resources, softwares, information and other demanded devices are shared. It works on a pay-by-use basis that involves delivering hosted services over the Internet. It concentrates on extending IT's existing capabilities without the software or hardware been installed.

Cloud computing is a technology that makes use of Internet and central remote servers to maintain and process data and applications.

The most common example of the application of cloud computing is Yahoo mail or Gmail. For accessing it you just need to have an Internet connection and a web browser to run the Internet. The mail software is stored on ther server side and you needn'y worry how the your mails are stored or how its sent.

The major benefit of cloud computing is that it provides the optimization concept where the cost the company's capital expenditure is reduced.

Cloud computing provides various services based on its architecture.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Watch Satellite TV on Your Computer ?Quit TV Sets and Opt this New Technology

Without a dish or antenna, nowadays you can motionless watch satellite TV on your PC. This is a pretty amazing idea, as once upon a time people consideration that this could be completed only with the use of a television set. Much momentum has been gained with space communications, and this is truthfully what a lot of people would prefer.

Watching satellite TV on your computer is distant improved than using a television set, as that will require the installation of a dish or antenna. This procedure could prove to be extremely lengthy and as well complicated. With the PC, all one wants is a card to install the viewing software or PC satellite TV software, and a sound card, with a high-speed broadband link.

Setting up a dish will as well prove to be extremely luxurious for most families, what with the cables and extra operating cost for equipment.

The extra drawback with the dishes is that they will have to be placed in the right way, consequently that the signals are ideal. It has to be placed consequently that bad climate conditions will not involve the transmissions and viewing knowledge.

To watch satellite TV on your PC, you will have two options to do consequently. First here will be the hardware choice, the PCTV cards and the extra software choice, PC satellite TV software. The satellite TV signals can be decoded and received with the aid of the PCTV cards. This has to be installed on the motherboard of the PC. A USB port can be used to attach the outdoor cards. The software choice is simpler as it now requires you to run the installation completing file.

A good Internet link is wanted for equally options. If you desire the TV feeds to be of high quality, then the Internet link has to be at slightest 512 kbps. The pictures will be sharper and improved if broadband is used, although a dial up link can be used for this reason. While shopping for PCTV cards, you will as well have to check if the necessities of installation are met by your PC.

It will be particular that here are sure configurations necessary for the PC such as the memory and RAM. To make the viewing superior, you can as well set up a good graphics card, sound card and a set of superior speakers for a greatest viewing knowledge. PC satellite TV software can be downloaded instead of the use of the PCTV cards.

With the aid of the software, anybody can watch satellite TV on their computers immediately. The last update puts the number of television programs obtainable at extra than 3000 TV broadcast stations. This number is probable to add to with time and no additional costs would be charged to existing users. The charge of the software is sensible too which perhaps explain why viewers are giving up their satellite dishes for the software.

We Help Find Computer Training Courses, Online Learning, And Learning Technologies

The entire Computer Training Courses with just four small, Computer learning classrooms. E Learning should be engaging and interactive, but must be developed without the use of learning courses, large graphics, audio, or video. It must run from a browser, not require plug-ins or software. The original intention to train everyone in face-to-face events became untenable, as it would have required multiple training events, each of which needed to be delivered no more than six weeks before each go-live date to reduce training fade. Buying a computer programming language book gets the individual through the process of learning, but practice is the key for advancement.

Practice helps the student learn the language more efficiently, and coding a website or desktop application happens more quickly.

Computer Networking Technology Continues To Speed Forward

Who remembers the Commodore 64? Released to the public in the early 1980s, the Commodore 64 was the most popular computer on the market for a number of years. In fact, it is still the highest-selling single computer system to this day, with an estimated 17 million-plus units sold.

The Commodore 64 featured revolutionary graphics and sound for a machine of its time, and for that reason was widely popular for playing games. It also had a built-in data recorder known for its slow processing times and little storage space. While a floppy disk attachment was eventually released, it did little to increase storage capacity.

The networking capability of the Commodore 64 and other early single-user computer units during that time was minimal. A dial-up modem soon became available, which allowed users to connect with public bulletin boards to access early online games. This also enabled users to chat and message each other, basically setting the stage for what is known today as the Internet.

Computer Networking

Development of computer networking technologies and early versions of the Internet began in the late 1950s, and were in use by the military and science communities by the following decade.

During the early days, machines with the same capabilities as today's desktop computers were so large they required multiple floors in order to operate. The compact size of today's computers can be credited to the development and evolution of the microprocessor, which allows communication to take place at lightning speeds through conveniently small devices.

Networking Becomes the Norm

In the 21st century, computer networking has become part of our everyday lives. The Internet has been in widespread use for around 20 years, allowing us to instant message each other, send large documents, share photographs and have the equivalent of a world-class library at our fingertips. These things have all become routine in our high-tech world.

Whats Behind the Network?

Simply put, a computer network consists of multiple computers that interconnect. A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network residing in one locale, such as a building, an office or a campus. A Wide Area Network (WAN) is a computer network that is spread throughout a large geographical area. The Internet can be considered the largest WAN on earth!

The actual connections and cabling within computer networks often go overlooked. This is not the glamorous side of computing by any stretch, but it is a networks lifeline. When networking was in its infancy, information transfer was very slow due to the fact that only one piece of information could be transferred at a time. This could also be attributed to the limitations of the cabling, which was basically telephone wire at that point.

With the advent of packet transfer technology, multiple pieces of information were able to be switched back and forth simultaneously. This revolutionized the speed at which computer networks operate. Along with the computing technology came an upgrade in the actual network connections; the cabling.

We now have Cat5e bulk cable, which provide an amazing amount of bandwidth for information transfer compared to original network cabling. And for jobs requiring faster speeds, Cat6 bulk cable provides even more bandwidth. Fiber cable is used in the largest and fastest networks.

Just like networking, technology is not slowing down. Weve come a long way in the last 20 years of personal computing. The prospect of what's to come is exciting to ponder.

Your services are also in great demand right now as well. Small businesses have never been more open to finding affordable, reliable ways to support their computer systems... and an Independent Computer Consultant represents the absolute best, most cost-effective IT Support option available.

If a small business owner is looking for ways to maintain the network, the options are to do it himself, which is not cost-effective at all, if he's even technically capable of doing the work... he can have one of his employees pull double-duty doing the IT work in addition to the regular daily tasks that are their primary role (also very cost-inefficient and odds are this employee won't be able to do all the required IT work very effectively)... he can hire an in-house network administrator, which can be very expensive... or he can outsource to a large MSP or IT Support Firm, which will also probably be somewhat costly and unless this business owner proves to be a very lucrative client for the IT Firm, the client will likely not receive the dedicated level of care they would hope for.

An Independent Computer Consultant however is able to provide the same level of managed support that a larger MSP could provide, but with a greater level of attention to the client and at a much lower cost.

This is because the Independent Computer Consultant can operate very profitably with a small client base, and can work with much lower overhead than with his larger competitors.

In fact, an independent consultant is easily able to generate a revenue of over K (greater than the average salary for a New York network administrator), while serving a tiny client base of only four small business clients, making this easily one of the most preferred Information Technology Careers available to an IT Technician who has the necessary skills.

Advantages of Touchscreen Technology

Touchscreen technology is becoming more and more popular today and you can see it in almost every latest gadget. This only shows that Touchscreen Technology is very helpful especially when it is implemented with computing devices. One of the advantages of using touchscreen devices is that it reduces the need for buttons such as keyboards and keypads.

Others think that touchscreen technology is just more of a luxury than a necessity. But the truth is that touchscreen technology itself is very helpful when it comes to operating computer devices. An example is a tablet PC. Tablet PCs can be operated without having a keyboard or a keypad since you can type on the screen itself through a virtual keyboard. Tablet PCs are becoming more and more popular among people who need minimal computing power. Usually, tablet PCs are being used in presentations and reading electronic books.

Touchscreen technology is also helpful for people who are editing photos.

Instead of using a mouse, they can directly pinpoint the location that they want to edit just by touching the exact location on the screen. So instead of using a mouse to control the pointer, all they need to do is to touch the specific location, it is like working on the actual hardcopy itself.

When it comes to laptops, multi-touch technology is really helpful when implemented on touchpads. Instead of pressing a specific button to view slides, all the user needs is to place two fingers on the touchpad and slide from either left or right. This will make the display go forward and backward respectively. Also multi-touch technology is helpful in scrolling pages. Instead of clicking and dragging the scroll bar, all you need to is to make a specific gesture on the touchpad to make the page go up or down.
