investigate questions such as ‘does algorithm selection impact how quickly users learn flashcards’ or ‘do customizations correlate with increased quiz scores’ or any other avenue the researcher sees fit to pursue. Conclusion OpenFluency is an Open source free application that adopts multiple proven flashcard language learning tools, and incorporates them into a single platform. The efficiency of many elements of OpenFluency’s core functionality (e.g. spaced-repetition algorithms in flashcards)…

A Critical Review of Is Google Making Us Stupid? Nicolas Carr is a well-known writer and technology critic. Among his works is ‘Is Google Making Us Stupid?’, a magazine article published in the Atlantic Monthly in the summer of 2008. The article examines the effect of the Internet and google on brain functioning. Carr questions whether high amounts of Internet use is a detriment to one’s ability to concentrate. While he does little to conclusively prove the article’s central theme, his line of…

Overall this process is also referred to as the Sanger method. The gel is read backwards from top to bottom to produce the stand in a 5’ to 3’ manner. Once the gel is read, the sequence of nucleotides is submitted to the NCBI website using BLASTN algorithm. The search options can be specified for humans, mice, or others. The option “others” was used in the case of our experiment. Once the search results are complete, the name of the gene, species, amino acid count information, among other…

students. The more sophisticated search engine no longer relied solely on keywords but evaluated sites on their authority and integrity, based on the sites that linked to them. Google was launched in September of 1998 and despite its superior algorithm, they found it hard to generate the advertising revenue needed to succeed. That is when they started to look closely at one of their rivals GoTo.com. Bill Gross of GoTo.com failed to patent his concept, so Google had no trouble incorporating…

Steganography, or data hiding is the technique of embedding a message (pay¬load) in a medium (carrier), without causing suspicion about the existence of hidden data in the medium. The perturbations to the medium are carried out in such a manner that there is no perceivable noise component introduced. One way to illustrate the concept of steganography would be to analyze the Sim¬mons’ Prisoners’ problem. Two prisoners are allowed to communicate through a medium via an agent trusted by the warden.…

accelerometer has been used to measure the position and acceleration respectively. The emphasis of this paper is given on the interfacing of the sensors with Friendly ARM mini2440 and the resultant control algorithm implemented on the embedded platform to control the designed testbench. The control algorithm implemented is PID control. It is to be noted that the entire project was done to study the movements of an underwater vehicle and the ensuing control strategies and the prototype…

interprets the well-being of a person’s conscience. The subject is shown inkblots and is to determine whatever they see or imagine the picture to be. The perception of the inkblot is analyzed. The analysis comes from psychological interpretation, complex algorithms, or both. So, have you ever wondered what goes on inside your head? There is test called the rorschach test that determines your conscientious condition. There are some doubts that the Rorschach test is unreliable. The test was…

Freakonomics More abortion in early 1970s - Present ( due to the Roe vs Wade U.S Court ruling) The effect was that it dropped crime rate. The book says,” One study has shown that the typical child who went unborn in the earliest years of legalized abortion would have been 50% more likely than average to live in poverty, he would have one parent. These two factors- childhood poverty and a single-parent household-are among the strongest predictors that a child will have a criminal future.” (Pg.…

Very Good paper. What a catalyst of change you experience because of your dominant strategic decision. In the field that you work in, I know from experience that there are many imperative and crucial decisions that must be made every day and night. Some decisions are simultaneous especially when it involve patient's treatment and medical staff analytical guide or tool for making a decision in the situation you were a part that the authors Thomas & Maurice (2010), call game theory. I understand…
