Physical Space being used in Libraries Expectation, Situation Introduction Due revolution in information technology, the role of library has been changed astonishingly in past decades. Traditional libraries emphasis on providing quiet space and printed books, however, modern libraries are not only providing traditional academic reference service but also providing digital information service; not only for study but also for socialising. Scott Bennett deemed, “at the heart of any effort to…

Required Considerations when Acquiring Computer Systems Introduction The majority of businesses today rely on some sort of computer or IT system, regardless of the business’ size. The integration of a computer system into a business is not a decision to be taken lightly, as it can be a significant expense to purchase hardware, develop and install software, and train employees on specific procedures. The Failure of a System: Novopay In August of 2012, a new salary payment system for those…

Are the Effects of Web-Generated Knowledge Really Beneficial? “I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently, but I give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I’ve still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you.”…………………. These are the infamous words quoted from the advanced high-tech computer known as Hal, spoken after a terribly gone array glitch in its central operating system. For not only did this glitch cost the lives…

Do preschool aged children benefit or are they hindered from the use of computers at school? This question is answered in the article “The Impact of Information Technologies on Preschool Child Development.” By, Svetlana Andelic, Zoran Cekerevac and Nikola Dragovic. The research conducted for this article takes an in depth look at how computer use affects children pedagogically, psychologically, sociologically and medically. Information technologies particularly computers and computer like…

Computers, which have been around from less than a century, have made a huge impact around the world. However, even if we realize that computers are a basic tool in everyday life, people underestimate the capacity of these computing devices. The first time Google announced that their AlphaGO was going to compete with Go master Lee SeDol Kudan, my comrades and I had a strong faith on Lee. However, as we all know, the result surprised the world. Consequently, I believe we should not only make…

1.0 Introduction A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It was originally given to humans who performed numerical calculations using mechanical calculators, such as the abacus and slide rule. It has the ability to process, store and retrieve data and not only that a computer can also be used send to email, browse the internet for information, saved soft copy documents in the hard disk. The great advantages is it can perform multiple task such accounting formula…

With the advancement of modern technology, people’s lives have become much easier, and more comfortable. Robots have been created to facilitate people in doing various tasks in everyday life. Computers have been invented to do loads of things that were previously done manually by humans. In fact, robots and computers are also known as artificial intelligence, the digital mind run by modern machines. With this technological progress, people’s lives have changed remarkably. While this artificial…

Quantum Computing vs Conventional Computing Conventional computing methods are the ones we use normally in our day to day lives on our computers, cell phones, laptops etc. Methods employed to solve problems via conventional or classical computing are by far closest to the way a human brain performs them. In classical computing, information is stored in bits which are the discrete values of 1s and 0s. Performing operations on these discrete values on a classical machine is the same as performing…

The first computer that functioned similar to the modern computer we have today, was created around 1936 by a German man named Konrad Zuse. However, the Turing machine first proposed by Alan Turing became the foundation for our current computers we use today. Early computers were mostly used to solve complex mathematical problems such as assist encrypted code messages and binary math. These computers were enormous machines weighing several tons and essentially immovable. The modern computers we…
