    Superconductivity INTRODUCTION We've all heard about superconductivity. But, do we all know what it is? How it works and what are its uses? To start talking about superconductivity, we must try to understand the how "normal" conductivity works. This will make it much easier to understand how the "super" part functions. In the following paragraphs, I will explain how superconductivity works, some of the current problems and some examples of its uses. CONDUCTIVITY Conductivity

    Bit strings composed of zeros and ones are the most usual way to represent, change and communicate information. This data however s subject to errors due to a variety of factors, such as deterioration of magnetic tape over time, or a scratch on a CD or DVD. Coding theory uses techniques that can help find the errors. However if there are too many errors, the techniques may not always work. One of the first techniques is the error detecting codes, which adds a parity check bit to the end of the bit

    Digital radiography (DR) is a revolutionary invention in radiography. With this technology, no cassette is needed for an x-ray examination meaning that there is no need to reload films or to erase imaging plate in every examination. This is a distinctive feature which conventional radiography and computed radiography (CR) do not have. DR was first introduced in 1996 (Carroll, 2011). Miniature electronic x-ray detectors are used as the image receptor. The detectors enable the direct capture of the

    Perhaps the earliest device for working out sums was the abacus. This began as a clay tablet into which grooves were cut. Pebbles were then placed or taken away from grooves to perform addition and subtraction. (Our word calculation comes from the Latin word calculus meaning 'pebble'). Because the pebbles were likely to become mislaid, they were later replaced by beads threaded on to wires and mounted in a frame. By moving the beads backwards and forwards, addition, subtraction, division and multiplication

    DATA WAREHOUSE COMPONENTS & ARCHITECTURE Lecture Note # 02 The data in a data warehouse comes from operational systems of the organization as well as from other external sources. These are collectively referred to as source systems. The data extracted from source systems is stored in a area called data staging area, where the data is cleaned, transformed, combined, deduplicated to prepare the data for us in the data warehouse. The data staging area is generally a collection of machines where simple

    History Data has always been analyzed within companies and used to help benefit the future of businesses. However, the evolution of how the data stored, combined, analyzed and used to predict the pattern and tendencies of consumers has evolved as technology has seen numerous advancements throughout the past century. In the 1900s databases began as “computer hard disks” and in 1965, after many other discoveries including voice recognition, “the US Government plans the world’s first data center to
