Takeo Kanade gave his own personal perspective of the evolution through his experience as a professor. As a Professor of Computer Science and Robotics in the Robotics Program at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Takeo Kanade is also the founder of the…

2.8 Plan and Timeline Phase I research will require only the resources supplied by UMBC and RLM Communications. Additional resources will be required in Phase II and those will need to be secured ahead of our Phase II timeline. In Phase I, the following timeline will be required to secure the stated resources: 3 The Innovation (1-3 Pages) 3.1 Description A detailed description of our innovation is provided in the Technical Discussion and R&D Plan. 3.2 Technical Challenges and Risks…

Atanasoff is known as the father of the computers because of his method of computing that was far beyond the capabilities of computers during his time. He didn 't conjure up this new method overnight; he spent countless nights driving around his town thinking of ways to move himself up in the academic world. To be a successful inventor…

sophomore year when I signed up for a C programming class. I remember asking the instructor why are we writing so many lines just to print "Hello World". She smiled and replied, "Ajit, the objective of coding is not just to print this line, but to teach computers to think like us to help us with our daily life." I still had my reservations about the programming, but as days passed, I realized what the instructor meant to say. We are always surrounded by programs, simple sets of logic to guide us…

1 Ten years ago if someone had told me that one day I would be interested in becoming a computer software engineer, I would have frowned and said “that’s stupid”. After reaching a higher level of maturity, although only slightly, the prospect of becoming a computer software engineer is much more appealing. Software engineers enjoy high salaries, generally consistent work schedules, and comfortable working environments. Jobs in software engineering can be found all over the country, and there are…

Have you ever tried to carry on a conversation with somebody but they are too busy texting or playing on their phone or device in hand? Have you ever been ignored by a friend to “hang out” because they were too busy playing a video game? Technology is growing at a faster rate than it ever has before with new devices such as smartphones, laptops, televisions, etc. The real question though is; are we depending on it too much? Scientists and even our everyday, ordinary person is coming up with new…

1. INTRODUCTION Ubiquitous computing (or "ubicomp") is a concept in software engineering and computer science where computing is made to appear anytime and everywhere. In contrast to desktop computing, ubiquitous computing can occur using any device, in any location, and in any format. A user interacts with the computer, which can exist in many different forms, including laptop computers, tablets and terminals in everyday objects such as a fridge or a pair of glasses. The underlying technologies…

1. Introduction Can Artificial Intelligence(AI) be conscious? This paper explores the possibility of consciousness in Artificial Intelligence by considering various positions from neuroscience, computer science and philosophy. 1.1 Consciousness in AI Artificial Intelligence refers to a machine or a program that is a flexible rational agent that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at some goal. Searle argued that a conscious AI, or “Strong AI”, has a…

A Double-Edged Weapon Technology is the biggest influence in today’s society. Telephones, computers, and many other electronic devices are changing many person point of view. The easiest and most effective way to research any information is sitting in front of a computer or any electronic devices and just clicking a keyboard key. Technology is helping the world obtain a better and more comfortable lifestyle by adding faster communication. However, the over dependency on technology causes…

We live in an era of intelligent technology where our watches tell us not only the time, but they also remind us to exercise. Our phones recommend the best places to hang out, and our computers predict our preferences, helping us to do our daily work more efficiently. However, all of these digital assistants demonstrate only a tiny sliver of artificial intelligence, and it’s plain to see how we’re still ages away from Skynet and Blade Runner scenarios. Or are we? Since the beginning of the…
