ejected into space, Arthur and Ford are picked up by Zaphod Beeblebrox, the cousin of Ford Perfect. Breeblebrox takes the group to the legendary planet of Magrathea, where they learn the truth about the Earth. Earth was a computer designed by the supercomputer Deep Thought, which was made to find the answer to life, the universe and everything. However, when the answer…

history. But the idea to design and develop the IBM 7030 was the audacious move and the plan to make it faster was incredible. According to the article published in the Tech Time Wrap of the Week: IBM Stretch, 1961 “ IBM 7030, STRETCH was the supercomputer of its day, running at speeds roughly 25 times faster than typical machines. The machine stretched across 2,500 square feet of floor space, spanning 60 separate pieces of wardrobe-sized hardware. But unlike earlier IBM machines, it did not use…

intelligence would have on society and in effect, how artificial intelligence would morph all of posterity. Finally, the last paragraph of Carr’s article circles back to the original allusion to Kubrick’s film. By using the repetition of the supercomputers desperate pleas, Carr strikes a resounding cord with the reader. As HAL is being stripped apart, he cries out ‘”I can feel it. I can feel it. I’m afraid” (515). The raw emotion of fear appeals to the reader’s sense of pity as fear is…

brain is the brain stream the oldest part of the brain which is in control of primary instincts heart rate and fight or flight response which structurally can be divided into the midbrain , pons and medulla oblongata . The midbrain acts like a supercomputer for the human body pons aids the medulla in controlling breathing and also acts and a relay station. The medulla also know as the medulla oblongata is the functioning of breathing , blood circulation, vomiting and swallowing . The third and…

Video Library Using the internet can be very interesting and very rewarding. Upon using the internet one may go about it in various ways. You can search for many things and learn all the information that you want to about any subject. If one choose to keep track of useful information the may compile a video library for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhT3co2qNAA Ushahidi This is a very good video to show the importance of the platform Ushahidi. It to understand not…

Analysts claim that China will eventually surpass the United States in economic superiority. Due to economic, technological power and rapid growth, China is creeping towards the United States of America (U.S.) at an alarming rate (Garver). China has experienced high growth rates and is viewed as the largest exporter of goods and services. The U.S. has continued to support the rise of China’s power with friendly relations and perceives China as a peaceful country (Garver). The economic dominance…

1962. This computer was unlike anything seen before; it was ten times faster then any other computer built. There were many different changes in to the make the supercomputer so much faster and smarter. They changed their transistors from germanium to silicon. At this point they still struggled with the problem of over heating. The supercomputer was still a major break through and opened an entire different field for computer developments. Now with these massive computers capable of such high…

The Cold War: How the Icy Rivalry Gave Us Fiery Technology Throughout history, we have experienced many technological influences, inventions, and innovations, many of which have changed the world and how we live in it. Our modern era depends on new, cutting-edge technology, but few look back to the origin. Some people believe that war brings new technology, since war motivates. Whether in the form of a theory, weapon, tool, or all three, the Cold War stands true to this and but this and played…

Medical technology is a vast field where advancements in technology play a crucial part in sustaining the health of patients. Fields such as Artificial Intelligence, 3-D printing, robotics, and medical imaging have contributed to improving the health of many people. In the medical field, the dependence of medical technology has allowed doctors to improve their practice by making more accurate diagnoses, which reduces mortality rate. Healthcare practitioners, as a result of these innovations,…

a specific key or password. The algorithmic methods used to encrypt file contents and messages are very robust; meaning the average computer or even a supercomputer does not have the ability to crack it if the key or password is long enough. An article written on EETimes by Mohit Arora, a Security Architect, states that “even with a supercomputer, it would take 1 billion billion years to crack the 128-bit AES key using brute force attack. This is more than the age of the universe (13.75 billion…
