However, network speeds like this are still decades away. The future of supercomputing most likely lies with grids though, due to the difference in efficiency. The future of supercomputers will be able to perform complex calculations that we cannot imagine as humans. Experts believe by 2023 supercomputers will reach speeds up to one exaflop (Clifton, 2012). An…

New York otherwise known as the “Big Apple” is home to approximately 19.7 million people. In a closer lense, New York City is home to 8.4 million people. Everytime I go to New York I always spot the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center. For seven summers I went to Camp Matoaka in Maine, each year I would return to the same smiling faces. These familiar faces were always close to my heart, however they were not always in reach. My friends lived in places such as: Paris, New York City,…

Well, a few years have passed since I last posted a blog on my site, and a lot has changed. I’m still sassy and have my hands in the cookie jar at every turn, but now I’m a Mom. Being a Mom has changed me in ways that I never even thought about, let alone expected. I’ve actually become what I used to dread – a responsible adult. It’s not all that bad considering the trade-off is flippin awesome. Stella is only 8 months old at this writing, and reminds me moment by moment what real, deep…

chapters, Section 5.2.2 is the ideal setting with a zero carbon emission. In Section 5.2.2, I assume there is no gas-fired plant present and at least 50\% of the demand is supplied by my system, and the rest is satisfied by imports from the National Grid. This section includes three subsections, a fixed carbon price, a variable carbon price and a hard constraint on carbon emission. CO$_{2}$ is the main greenhouse gas and it is suspected to be the principle gas responsible for global warming…

Many South Brooklyn residents are very familiar with Avenues H to Z. But, how about Avenues A, B, or C? Or, what about Avenue G? Most of the streets in Brooklyn are named after numbers, people, places, or things. However, travelling south of Ditmas Park, through Midwood , and into Sheepshead Bay one will encounter several east-west streets named after letters of the alphabet. Now, why is that? In the late 1800s and early 1900s, the hilly areas of Northern and Western Brooklyn (Brooklyn…

On their journey, the romantic heroes overcome social issues. In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the main character, Huck experienced many conflicting social issues such as slavery and racism. As Mark…

In 2012, using a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) machine, the discovery was made that the brain is set up on a grid pattern (Zimmer, 2014). Understanding this is helping scientists to notice small differences in those who have brain disorders. There is also imaging being done that can show what areas of the brain are being used to complete a task. In 2005 the first…

It had been seventeen years since the man had gone off the grid. No contact from his family, no electronics, running water, or comforts. He used his witts out in the forest, along with tools he had made himself with a little hut made of fallen trees and leaves. People wonder where the man named Matthew Davis went, or even if he died. He never told anyone where he was going, or why he was going. He just needed a break from everything; that was it. He had been addicted to technology since he was…
