Patients, Brain Computer Interface, Tridi Identify one ITGS social/ethical concern in the article. Reliability Describe ITGS terminology and systems. BCI- Brain Computer Interface recognizes brain signals and uses them to control electrical or communication devices and can even assist in repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. The technology use sensors to detect brain activity and amplify signals, which can then be processed into messages or commands to aid decision-making. If possible, describe a solution to the concern (issue). The reliability of the IT systems may be a concerned because the IT system may not be able to handle the different kind of disability, because there are many different kinds of disability. Moreover, the current concerns are that the users' lack of strengths. A possible solution for the system is to experiment the system to different people with different needs, so that it can handle different kind of people and their specific needs. A possible solution for the users, is to train them so that they can use the systems for a long time without getting exhausted, because the purpose of the BCI is to be able to use for a long term.

Top 10 Google Products You Forgot All About - 1 views

  •  
    Which would you use? march 17 kuni
  •  
    I would use Google Sketchup, because this is one of the applications that I have on my computer. Google Sketchup is a software with which you can make a 3D model easily. Compared to the other 3D modeling software, Google Sketchup is easier to use. It has some tutorials for beginners, and you will find out how easy it is to create 3D model like a kid making a tower of blocks. Also, if you buy it, you will be able to convert it to a file that can be used for other 3D modeling software and modding games. I would use Google Trends just to see what's trending and Flight simulator in Google earth sounds pretty fun for when you're bored. I would use ; Google Page Creator, Flight simulator in Google Earth, and SketchUp. I would use the fight simulator, because it looks fun, and SketchUp mainly because I've always wanted to do some sort of graphics design on the computer. -In my opinion I would like to use Google SketchUp, and Google Book Search. First of all Google Sketch Up is helping me to make 3-D model. This is very useful in art class because when we have something like installations, we need some sketch of location and installation therefore by this program, I can draw 3-D installation and see how it looks like therefore this program is very useful for me. Also For the Google Book Search, this is kind of digital library which I can find book very easily and efficiently. I can see the books by this program also I can upload by own books which I can scan it. Therefore it might be very useful when I have something like writing essays. I would use Google Page creator. It enables to me create a page where I can find snippets of web pages, quotes, and images all over the web.

Nokia at the crossroads: Blazing platforms | The Economist - 1 views

  •  
    Explain: As microprocessors become more powerful, mobile phones are changing into hand-held computers. As a result, most of their value is now in software and data services. This is where America, in particular Silicon Valley, is hard to beat. Companies like Apple and Google know how to build overarching technology platforms. And the Valley boasts an unparalleled ecosystem of entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and software developers who regularly spawn innovative services. march 29 cream

    It is all about microprocessor and how powerful it is. According to this article, it concerns with Nokia mobile phones as the company develop so much on hardware, which lack in software nowadays. In the other hand, Apple provides a really good with software, because they are mostly useful and impressive. So, now it is quite hard for Nokia to fight against this advance of Apple.

Amazon Goes Back to the Future With 'NoSQL' Database | Wired Enterprise | Wired.com - 1 views

    Describe NoSQL and its purpose. Explain how it is used differently than MySQL. M12 jan30 az
  •  
    Describe NoSQL and its purpose. NoSQL is a highly scalable and reliable non-relational databases designed to maintain high performance and to be highly cost efficient for workloads of any scale, from the smallest to the largest internet-scale applications. It is also used to build a new kind of database for "unstructured" information that comes spilling off the Internet with each passing second. It is capable of handling large amounts of data du to the fact that they use flash storage rather than traditional spinning disks. These solid-state drives can provide single-digit millisecond response times. Explain how it is used differently than MySQL. MySQL database is a relational database that stores data in neat rows and columns, and it's designed to run on a single machine, while NoSQL database can store data in a more flexible way and is designed to scale across a very large number of machines. "SQL databases are like automatic transmission and NoSQL databases are like manual transmission. Once you switch to NoSQL, you become responsible for a lot of work that the system takes care of automatically in a relational database system. Similar to what happens when you pick manual over automatic transmission. Secondly, NoSQL allows you to eke more performance out of the system by eliminating a lot of integrity checks done by relational databases from the database tier. Again, this is similar to how you can get more performance out of your car by driving a manual transmission versus an automatic transmission vehicle." http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2559411/sql-mysql-vs-nosql-couchdb

    What does cloud computing deal with? Cloud computing deals with all the technology and support for the infrastructure of the cloud such as networking, database, storage, and management applications. Describe each of the characteristics cloud services must have. Fshared services (with standard framework and shared application programming interface (API)) - these services can be shared in order for all users to have access to them. Fstandard user interface - Web browsers to have access to the cloud services. Fself-service - Users must help themselves by self service when it comes to doing cloud services since actions are carried over the computer, not from human to human. Fservice metering - The Charge of the usage of the cloud services. Faccess over the internet - The medium of having access to the internet, as well as other places over the internet. Explain horizontal and vertical services. Horizontal Services - cloud applications, cloud storage, cloud servers, and cloud collaboration. These horizontal services are the services that are spread around horizontally as the infrastructure, and the base of the cloud service. It provides the technology and memory for clouds for example. Vertical Services - government services, cloud entertainment, cloud publishing and online ad networks, cloud healthcare, and cloud telecommunications. These vertical services are basically what we use the cloud services for, which field they are in, and how they are used. Define each layer of services. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) - This is a service usually from outsourcing done by an organization so that the actual infrastructure to hold the storage, hardware, and other components are stored elsewhere. Why is bandwidth important? Internet bandwidth will drive the popularity of cloud services in the country, as businesses and consumers will demand more services as bandwidth increases. Speedy network reliability is needed for "megabit-per-second" services.

Also this system could save the money for the storage systems. 6. How does cloud computing encourage collaboration? By using user-friendly services like Facebook rather than conventional e-mail, feeds rather than memos, a touch-based system rather than a click-user interface, a push-based information system rather than pull or browse, location-based technology rather than unknown locations, and web service/HTML rather than Windows or Mac.
