CPU – Central Processing Unit Figure 9: Michael Pece and Bhagat Singh, (2016), My Own Component Photos [ONLINE]. Available at: http://s.imgur.com/a/KegII [Accessed 10 November 2016]. The concept of the CPU is a brain for electronics to utilise computer functions resourcefully so that every computer can initiate input and output controls. Inside a CPU is tiny electrical boards (and + end gates) that process the information of the any certain program a user would run. The major CPU manufacturers…

INTRODUCTION Today with fast growing digital age of modern technology, digital forensic experts are facing a number of data sources that they need and rely on to acquire valuable information for their investigations. Data sources can come from different forms and areas such as: personal computer, hard drives, network logs, social networking sites, mobile devices. These sources can contain a vast amount of data. Hence, they lead up to many challenges in acquiring the data. For example, just in…

In computer forensic investigation, the first pro-active step is that of acquisition. However, the method used for data acquisition by a forensics investigator plays a major role in influencing the admissibility of electronic evidence to be used in a court or law, or the reliability of any other relevant information required when dealing with computer forensic cases at the organizational level (Dykstra & Sherman, 2012). Different data acquisition techniques allow for the recovery of electronic…

The reasonable expectation of privacy is an element of privacy law that determines in which places and in which activities a person has a legal right to privacy. Sometimes referred to as the "right to be left alone," a person's reasonable expectation of privacy means that someone who unreasonably and seriously compromises another's interest in keeping her affairs from being known can be held responsible for that exposure or intrusion. Essentially, the fourth amendment forbids unwarranted…

With a 27-inch Retina 5K display combined with the AMD Radeon R9 M290X graphics processor with 2GB of GDDR5 memory, it allows you to do precise pixel-for-pixel photo editing and see photos in a resolution you’ve never seen before in a computer. Also, you will be able to view and edit 4K videos without experiencing any problem. This is really important when it comes to a graphic design job, considering they work with high-resolution photos and videos. Having a fourth-generation quad-core 4.0GHz…

RDBMSs are still viable option in handling and analyzing structural data, they suffer from a variety of problems including performance and scalability issues when it comes to big data. To increase the performance of DBMS for big data storage needs, partitioning the data across several sites and paying big license fees for enterprise SQL DBMS might be the two possible options (Stonebraker, 2010), however they are not even without disadvantages such as inflexible data…

as system loading or communication times. You can shorten response time by: * reducing contention and wait times, particularly disk I/O wait times; * reducing the amount of time resources are required; * using faster components. • Disk storage: this is the amount of disk space required to store the database files. You may wish to minimize the amount of disk storage…

Chapter 1 In this chapter we will discuss about the different services that we use to test our implementation on. Of course we introduce to you, Tiramola, the system that is our goal to improve, using our new approach. We are using Tiramola as it is, with an exception in its decision making system. We are presenting tiramola in Section \ref{sec:tiramola} Our cluster is a Cassandra cluster. We are discussing about Cassandra on Section \ref{sec:cassandra}. We test our cluster, using ycsb…

However, the large drop in PalmKid’s contribution margin per unit combined with a decrease in the actual number of PalmPro units sold as well as a drop in the actual contribution margin per unit below budget, led to the total contribution margin being much lower than budgeted. Other factors could be discussed here––for example, it seems that the PalmKid did not achieve much success with a three digit price point––selling price was budgeted at $149 but dropped to $102. At the same time,…

While ubiquitous Internet access is extremely convenient and enables marvelous new applications for mobile users, it also creates a major security vulnerability—by placing a passive receiver in the vicinity of the wireless transmitter, that receiver can obtain a copy of every packet that is transmitted! These packets can contain all kinds of sensitive information, including passwords, social security numbers, trade secrets, and private personal messages. A passive receiver that records a copy of…
