sad to say‚ it also means the provider keeps detailed information about our surfing habits. The same thing happen when we use the Global Positioning System (GPS). It not only will guides us any destination that we want to go‚ but also alerts us to speed and traffic light cameras on the way ¬ which record our progress. Besides‚ when we use our mobile to call anyone‚ this will be logged by the telephone company and could be used by police to locate where the phone was at the time. In short‚ if this

For my Unit 3‚ I will be studying Wildlife photography. This topic greatly appeals to me and I find the concept very interesting. It links in well with my summer task and I would like to expand the focus by photographing other animals. The topic is very broad and I would like to produce an in depth study of it‚ however it could be quite hard to complete due to not having access to seeing many animals and so I must visit the zoo. Doing this could also have setbacks such as cages‚ high walls and whether

Life’s data center consolidation‚ there are a few elements that are worthy of discussion; the first is bandwidth and high-speed communication‚ the second is cloud computing as a consolidation option‚ and third‚ mobile or “pod” datacenters as consolidation options. Bandwidth and high-speed communication Any large data centric organization/business is going to rely heavily on high-speed communication and the bandwidth within the network. In order to understand that last sentence‚ it is important to define

THE SPEED OF TRUST Trust had many meaning. Nowadays not only money is hard to get or achieve but also trust. Trust means confidence. When we trust people‚ we have confidence in them – in their integrity and in their abilities. When we distrust people‚ we are suspicious of them. The difference between high and low-trust relationships is palpable! In a high-trust relationship‚ we can say the wrong thing‚ and people will still understand us. In a low-trust relationship‚ despite precise communication

INTRODUCTION The measurement of wind speeds and rain rates are important in terms of atmospheric monitoring and meteorological measurements. This project is to develop a combined wind-rain sensor using hot metal plates. For wind speed measurements‚ the moving air carries heat away from the hot plates at a rate dependent on wind speed. Providing power to maintain the hot-plate temperatures at their set point values can provide the quantification of wind speed. Similarly‚ raindrops landing on one
