Prim’s algorithm Prim’s algorithm is an algorithm used to find out the minimum spanning tree. The cost or value of all the paths should be positive. For a given source vertex‚ this algorithm calculates the minimum distance that should be taken to all the nodes from the source vertex. Algorithm of Prim’s algorithm: 1. Initialize two sets S and V-S‚ where the set S will have the start vertex and V-S will have all the remaining vertexes. 2. Starting from the source vertex‚ traverse the adjacent

INTRODUCTION Over the years‚ display technology has been growing‚ from simple CRT to plasma screen. But now display technology has reached a stage where images can be displayed in thin air without the aid of a screen. A technology used for displaying images in thin air is called Heliodisplay. Heliodisplay is a technology developed by Chad Dyner‚ CEO for IO2 Technologies. In the Heliodisplay‚ a projector is focused onto a layer of mist in mid-air‚ resulting in a two-dimensional display that appears to float

have to update the social contract as these technologies rapidly change. Information technologies change quickly and move in and out of fashion at a bewildering pace. This makes it difficult to try to list them all and catalog the moral impacts of each. The very fact that this change is so rapid and momentous has caused some to argue that we need to deeply question the ethics of the process of developing emerging technologies (Moor 2008). It has also been argued that the ever morphing nature of information

Introduction RSA Algorithms RSA stands for Rivest-Shamir-Adleman algorithm was invented on 1977 which is mostly used public-key cryptosystem. It was designed by Ron Rivest‚ Adi Shamir‚ and Leonard Adleman (Milanov 2009). This is the 1st crypto system which used two different keys to encrypt and decrypt the messages. In this cryptosystem it uses public key to encrypt and private key to decrypt the messages. Public key can be shared with everyone but the private key has to be with the person who

Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) – Working We always use devices made up of Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) like computers‚ digital watches and also DVD and CD players. They have become very common and have taken a giant leap in the screen industry by clearly replacing the use of Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT). CRT draws more power than LCD and are also bigger and heavier. All of us have seen an LCD‚ but no one knows the exact working of it. Let us take a look at the working of an LCD. We get the definition
