    Unit 6 Analysis: Memory Cost

    Throughout the years prices of computers have dropped and the memory in the computers has gotten substantially higher. Moore’s Law tells us that the number of processors doubles every two years. Well this is causing technology or computers in this case to basically double as well. In 1957 a 0.00098 KB RAM cost $392. This is unbelievable to me considering today my phone has two-billion times the RAM. In 1955 the amount of ROM on an IBM hard-drive was 12 MB and cost a whopping $74800 or the price of a decent house today. This price was at $6233 per MB. In today’s world we forget sometimes that there were even computers with MB hard drives.…

    Religious Beliefs: The Semang Culture And Religion

    The religious beliefs of the Semang are complex which include many different gods. Most of the Semang tribes are animistic where they believe that non human objects have spirits. Many significant events in their lives such as birth, illness, death and agricultural rituals have much animistic symbolism. Their priests practice magic, foresee the future and cure illness. They could use Capnomancy to decide whether a camp is safe for the night. Their priests are said to be “Shaman” in that they are someone who acts as a medium between the visible world and an invisible spirit world. The Semang bury their dead simply, and place food and drink in the grave (Tarmiji, Fujimaki, Norhasimah,…

    World War II Rationing Analysis

    “Rationing was one element of the restructure of US society, politics, and economics during World War II” (Bentley. Eating for Victory). Many supplies became scarce due to America’s full participation in the war. Without an organized system, many American citizens could not be guaranteed certain supplies. In December of 1941, the Office of Price Administration began to start the rationing of goods, and would continue to do so for the entire span of the war. Americans on the homefront were constantly making sacrifices in order to help the soldiers on the battlefront. Rationing during World War II greatly impacted the lives of millions of Americans.…

    Moore’s law, which is probably a nice synthesis of what’s happening in technology, basically that processing part will double every 18 months and that’s being delivered at less or equal cost. Well, Moore’s law is colliding with virtually every domain—every business domain, every social domain. It’s changing the way people interact around the globe. The internet has evolved from something that allowed different research labs shared data, now it’s become the foundation of actually global business, and perhaps even more importantly, this emerging global culture. So I think every domain will be fundamentally transformed by Moore’s law, by information technology. We’ll see information intensity of products go up.…

    Moore Law

    Paradigm is an approach to solve a problem. It provides exponential growth until it reaches to its last limits. When this happens the new paradigm replaces the old one and we call this a paradigm shift. In computation history of exponential growth, this has already happened four times. Integrated circuit which we called Moore’s Law is the fifth Paradigm. The first paradigm was Electromagnetic calculators, flowed by second Relay-based computers, then third Vacuum tubes and fourth Discrete transistors.[4] Every paradigm…
