Energy and Material Use in Semiconductor Devices

The physical protection of information, personnel, software, buildings and other material resources are the first thing that should be assessed when looking into security, obviously there are unavoidable disasters such as natural disasters, man-made disasters and loss of electricity, air or water but most issues are preventable, by monitoring who has access to what and how much access they have, by locking rooms and PC’s, using person specific swipe cards, bolting computers to desks, having effective CCTV in place, and by having effective monitoring tools an IT team can keep a close eye on valuable data and prevent risks. Electronic security systems are designed to protect against unwanted personnel and they provide free roaming for wanted personnel. An electronic security system is a series of biometric locks, or a single biometric lock. A biometric lock is a system that can provide control of entry (or exit) within a designated area by the use of an electronic locking facility. The most common biometric lock is a pin pad system which is a keypad that requires the exact combinations of keys to open the lock, the keys are generally numbers but can be emphasised as letters, shapes, or sounds. Secondly and commonly are swipe cards which are encoded cards which hold information on the user, there is normally a swipe slot to enter a facility that have chosen to

The device will be implemented on the forehead or on the arm. This is to fulfill the prophecy in the Book of Revelation 13:15-18 concerning the MARK OF THE BEAST. Are you still doubting the END TIME?

Microchipping people isrecognized as one of the most popular evolutional technologies that could change people 's life style and standard. Human implanting has the potential ability of saving life when emergency; it is capable of improving efficiency at work and life quality of life. Also it can bring evolutional change to the security system forever. With that mass of expectation, microchipping people also brings people equivalent large amount of concerning, people are worried about the consequence of implanting things that are unnatural, radioactive or privacy-threaten into their bodies and unlikely to be taken out undamaging to body. In this report, advantages and disadvantages of the technology will be shown with discussion of engineers responsibility regards on real life cases.

If I were to agree to implant chips into people they would be good reasons to do it.One of my main reasons would be to have society move faster when it comes to shopping.Who likes to wait in the line for a while?none so that would give them a reason to have a chip inserted into their hand.It will be a quick scan and there your set when it comes to paying.A chip can have you set within less than five minutes in line.

Throughout the 21st and 22nd century, technology was an integral part of humanity’s functioning as a species. It had guided us, shaped us, and created pathways for us in life that would’ve otherwise ceased to exist. The newest innovations are touted as the “latest and greatest” but as we innovated, we also became increasingly interdependent; we intertwined our lives with our tech, and became more reliant on it in the process. When humanity had fully automated their lives, the very electronics that supported their day-to-day routines also posed a hidden risk. In the right possession it was a wonderful tool, but when it fell into the wrong hands it was easily manipulated into a deadly weapon.

This can be linked back to the telescreens in 1984, and how the telescreens are always monitoring everyone at all times, microchips, when programed correctly, can perform the same task. Microchipping in this specific article is talking about how it would allow someone get into buildings, log onto computers, and buy snacks.

systems and various types of biometric and other devices. These ensure life and comfort are protected

In Laura Cabrera’s journal article, “Human Implants: A Suggested Framework to Set Priorities”, Cabrera references many experts’ works in order to set a formal foundation of transhumanist knowledge for both the followers and skeptics of transhumanism, eventually bringing into light a much-ignored topic, technoethics. Finally, she clearly presents her logical approach in tackling the pressing questions technoethics brings regarding human implants, following a trend that others before her in the field of human bioenhancement have taken before, letting her work speak for itself and show the grave consequences technoethics entail and what they as a society could do to resolve it.

The year is 2187. The Fourth World War had just ended, and 85 percent of the world population had been wiped off. The Beherrschen-Fanatiker, Germany’s most feared radicalized party, had taken control over the rest of the world- what’s left of it anyway. People who survived were all gathered in one place, and consequently lived in a controlled environment, highly monitored by the government in power. After the Beherrschen-Fanatiker claimed power over the world, it devised an ingenious plan to monitor everyone’s lives and make sure that they all obeyed every aspect of rules it imposed. It invented a chip that was to be inserted into each and every human being living on the face of the earth, apart from the members of the government and the top scientists in charge of creating and programming these chips. These chips relayed instructions to their subjects on what to do every hour, and would make sure that everyone followed the government’s instructions to the latter, failure to which resulted to severe punishment, depending on the rule violated.

new advancements such as microchip implant for humans and animals can be very controversial. At first, the implants may seem to have benefits but in the long run they will actually cause more trouble than they are worth. These potential "troublemakers" are about the size of an elongated grain of rice and are injected in the skin under the arm or hand (Feder, Zeller 15). The chip is not powered by battery and there is nothing that can possibly leak out into the body (Posada-Swafford 8). An early form of this technology was used to monitor salmon and has been used for other wildlife research (Verhovek 5). The idea of the chips was started from the September 11 tragedy

Biometric technology offers an alternative to the most used system currently in place in most operations: passwords or personal identification numbers (PIN). Instead of users inputting their password or PIN, users interact with a computer terminal that will scan their finger, face, voice, retina, etc. to identify them. Many of the next generation personal computer systems will have integrated biometric technology so that no external hardware is needed. In the mean time, users can buy small peripherals, like a mouse with integrated biometric technology or a small finger terminal for finger scans, to secure their personal computers.

Today’s science fiction is often tomorrow’s reality. As the pace of change has quickened, so it appears that we are actually living within a science fiction movie. Programs on TV continue to amaze or frighten us with yet more technological break through and with clever new products and gadgets. Over the last decade and certainly through the rest of this century, the major agent for these changes has been and will continue to be electronic computer and its derivatives. The Digital Age exploded into existence not with a whimper but a bang. The globe still shakes from its entry. The journey was long, but the impact is immediate. Now, for instance, the breath of an unborn baby can be captured and rendered visible, the

Biometrics is used in many places and there is a bright future for them. Coca Cola has recently replaced time card system with hand scanning machines. Finger print scanners are being used in many states of the US. They have been used to trace social welfare fraud. An iris pattern identification system is being used in Cook County, Illinois to ensure that right people are released from jail. ATM machines have been installed with finger scanners to prevent theft and fraud in Indiana (Jain, 2005).

The purpose of this paper is to give a greater understanding of the semiconductor world, for Physics 100 students who have a little knowledge of electronics. I will cover conductors, insulators, semiconductors, and the operation of a diode and a transistor. The reason that it is important to understand these devices is the vast effect that they have had on our modern world. Our lives are filled by electronics, especially in this computerized age that we live in, and I have found that a knowledge of some electronics has greatly helped my understanding of the many electronic devices that we deal with on a daily basis.
