Overall, Television boosts millions of dollars every year due the fact that there is a tv…

effect to the transmission quality or rate. Since it uses only light, it poses a very low security risk. The only way to compromise the security of a fiber optic cable is to intercept the light emission which can be done, but there are mechanisms to detects such intrusion if need…

complex, so did the escape attempts. One of the more famous escape attempts happened in early 1963 as East German acrobat Horst Klein made one of the most daring escapes in the wall’s history. Klein used his acrobatic skill to turn a high-tension cable that stretched over the wall as his route. He moved…

Philo Taylor Farnsworth, a mathematician and inventor, began designing the first ideas for television at the age of fourteen. Farnsworth began dreaming of his idea of using a lens to direct light into a glass tube where it could be deflected and transmitted into a picture. It was a very complicated process. He started with sketches that he shared with his science teacher and once his idea took shape, he moved onto building and experimenting from there. The invention of television opened the…

After hearing about different opinions regarding cable news, I found myself becoming more curious about bias in the media, especially within CNN and Fox News, the two most popular cable news channels. What I wanted to know is: how biased are CNN and Fox News? Most people are aware that CNN tends to lean more liberal and Fox News leans more conservative.

A Bus topology, also known as a line topology, is a network setup where each computer and network device are connected to a single cable. It is useful in small office networks since it uses less cable which is kind of advantage. But there is a very big disadvantage in using Bus topology which is if any of the segment in the network collapse it will also turn down all the other transmissions as well. In…

AT&T started in 1875 when Alexander Graham Bell invented the first talking telegraph. In 1876 and 1877 Bell got his patents on his telegraph. New Haven, CT was where the first telephone exchange existed in 1878 and this was operated under Bell Telephone. It took about three years for more telephone exchanges to open in most major cites in the United States. It was decided then to build a long distance telephone network and it started in New York and in 30 years is reached all the way to San…

a general meaning? A network consists of two or more computers that are connected in order to share resources (such as printers), exchange files, or electronically communicate.

Drones are the newest airborne craze to infiltrate the skies. The military is the most noteworthy entity to explore the immense potential of using an unmanned aircraft. History traces the first official unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), back to the V-1 rockets (doodle bugs) of the Second World War. The idea of a flying vehicle that could cruise over enemy territory without risking a pilot has been the primary focus of drone development. However, as these little flying remote controlled…
