Data Processing During the collection of data‚ our group noted the effect that temperature change had on aquatic macro invertebrates. Our data was collected from three different ponds amongst the Lake Harriet/Lake Calhoun vicinity. We took samples from the bird sanctuary pond‚ Lake Calhoun holding pond and the Lake Harriet duck area. Prior to our procedure‚ we measured the temperatures of each pond area. We used the low-temperature climate (bird sanctuary pond) to compare to the higher-temperature

need for security and tighter control on how we send information electronically over the Internet or through a network. Date encryption is‚ in its simplest terms‚ the translation of data into a secret code. In order to read an encrypted file‚ the receiver of the file must obtain a secret key that will enable him to decrypt the file. A deeper look into cryptography‚ cryptanalysis‚ and the Data Encryption Standard (DES) will provide a better understanding of data encryption. Cryptographic Methods

It describes data sets that are growing exponentially and that are too large‚ too raw or too unstructured for analysis using relational database techniques. Whether terabytes or petabytes‚ the precise amount is less the issue than where the data ends up and how it is used.”------Cite from EMC’s report
