"high tech" video games. During those years, the games had little blocky

... that it is a major contributor to this. Instead of companies paying around 1 million dollars to advertise for a 30 second commercial during the Super Bowl;

Not until the last few years have people noticed that a great deal of the commercials on T.V. are computer-related. These two combined have made the advertising businesses boom. Not only just on the T.V., but also on the net. Another area affected is the stock trading business. Computers have actua ...

... illegal means. It is said that at any given time the average
American has his name on an active file in over 550 computer information
databases of which nearly 90% are online, and of the 550 databases the number
comes no where close to how many time your personal information is listed in
some database in an unactive file. The "Average American" could simply sit in
his/her home doing nearly nothing all day long and still have his/her name go
through over 1,000 computers a day.
All of these vast information files all hold the crucial ones and zero's
of data that make up your life as you and all othe ...

... it a fade. The demand continues to rise and is now so
great that technological improvements are continually needed to handle the
burden that's been created from all of the people using the net.
Their are many things that can lighten the load that's been slowing down
the internet. First, it needs to have a lot better organization because with
over seventy-five million web pages, and rising steadily fast, being able to
pin-point the information you are trying to find is very difficult. It's like
finding a needle in a haystack. When you use a search engine to find

... the interrogator that he is in fact the woman.
Turing’s motivation for creating the Imitation Game was not in line with gender issues so, to answer the question, “Can machines think?” the man (given as A) is substituted for a machine.2
The type of machine used is limited to a digital computer. This is by no means a limitation as foreseen by Turing that “in about fifty years time one will be able to speak of machines thinking without expecting to be contradicted”.3
Speaking of machines thinking is one thing but a computer passing Turing’s imitation game, now known as ‘The Loebner Prize’4 is anot ...

Internet Security

... there are many
reasons to be concerned with security. The same features that make the Internet
so appealing such as interactivity, versatile communication, and customizability
also make it an ideal way for someone to keep a careful watch on the user
without them being aware of it (Lemmons 1). It may not seem like it but it is

students work, names, grades, records all accessible by computer. Or, how
about a doctor. You will use computers to examine and evaluate a patients ...
