How Computers Work

Computers understand only 2 (binary number system) states: on and off defined by the numbers 0 and 1 or BIT. Most of today's computers use the ASCII code (American Standard Code for Information Interchange). Once data represented in bits is entered into the computer, it gets processed. Basic data processing requires Random Access Memory (RAM) and the Central Processing Unit (CPU) to work together. 

RAM is a temporary storage that is deleted once the computers shut downs. More RAM memory does not make the computer run faster; it just allows it to do more things at once. 

The CPU is referred to as the brains of the computer because it controls and performs all the functions and tasks done by the computer.

The PC utilizes two fundamental sorts of programming: application and frameworks. Application programming, is PC programming that is intended to help the client perform different undertakings on the computer, for example, writing a letter, painting or listening to music. It is the product you use, to do the ordinary undertakings. Frameworks programming is essentially the plate working framework (DOS) and the greater part of its related projects. It controls and facilitate the general operation of the PC equipment, for example, sparing and printing records, oversee memory and the UI.

Today, PCs exchange information starting with one PC then onto the next making a system. Contingent upon the separation between these PCs, we can make among a few: Local Area Networks (LAN) and Wide Area Networks (WAN). Cases of LAN's incorporate a PC lab here at school or the school grounds. The Internet is a WAN that traverses the globe. For systems to capacity they should include: a station or transmission media, for example, fiber-optic links or remote innovation, and equipment gadgets, for example, organize interface cards (NICs), modems (MODulator/DEModulator) and switches to transmit information to the system, and get information from the system too. The transmission speed or data transfer capacity of the system is measured in BITS every second. The third and last part, programming permits you to associate any sort of PC to the system.

Computers

Computers have become one of the most essential things on earth. Computers or technology are involved in almost everything that we do daily. They affect the way we think, talk, socialize and more. Nowadays, it is critical that everybody knows how to manage computers, mostly to help themselves and to survive against technological updates that are doing a really fast path. The computers that we have today are the results of many years back of hard work. Based on some old people, computers are very complicated machines that are used to make their lives miserable, because they are everywhere and there’s anything they can do to get rid of them. With that being said, it is obvious that the use of computers, or the understanding of technology needs to be learned by every human beings in this world. Computers can come in different kind of sizes, so it all depends of the one you may like, or can afford. It is really important to know how to use computers because it makes life easier, and be more depend. Computers are not monsters, they were created to help us.

Our relation with computers or technology will never stop, and we’ll keep growing. They are different type of computers: supercomputers, mainframe computers, microcomputers, and mobile computers. The demand for computers is increasing tremendously since technologically the world is getting everyday. It doesn’t matter the kind of computer that someone has, the main thing is that all computers are very essential, and capable of doing things way faster than humans. Based to studies, a lot of people think that technology is replacing human beings. Honestly, sometimes technology can go a little bit too far, but at the end of the day, it is very appreciable the tasks that they can get done for us. Don’t see technology, or computers as enemies, you just have to learn how to control them and life will be easier. GO TECHNOLOGY!

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages. Artificial intelligence has been used in a wide range of fields including medical diagnosis, stock trading, robot control, law, remote sensing, scientific discovery and toys. However, due to the AI effect, many AI applications are not perceived as AI: "A lot of cutting edge AI has filtered into general applications, often without being called AI because once something becomes useful enough and common enough it's not labeled AI anymore," Nick Bostrom reports.[1] "Many thousands of AI applications are deeply embedded in the infrastructure of every industry."[2] In the late 90s and early 21st century, AI technology became widely used as elements of larger systems,[2][3] but the field is rarely credited for these successes. Cybernetic human HRP-4C is a humanoid robot whose body dimensions were designed to match the average Japanese young female. In this paper, we explain the aim of the development, realization of human-like shape and dimensions, research to realize human-like motion and interactions using speech recognition. Despite the sluggishness of change on today’s factory floors, this digital wave is slowly but surely revolutionizing manufacturing, contributing to major productivity enhancements and the emergence of innovative production paradigms that deliver more tailored and efficient solutions.

Women who revolutionized Computer Science

Computer Science is a big field, its mostly done by men. However, women have impacted the Computer Science field in many ways. Grace Hopper led the team that invented COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) the first programming language that used words instead of numbers. Hopper was a genius in computer science but not many women like to learn this field. Moreover, many organizations today are motivating women to learn computer science.

Artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence is the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages. 

Examples of Artificial intelligence are virtual personal assistance, video games, and online customer support.

Cybernetics are  the science of communications and automatic control systems in both machines and living things.

A humanoid robot is robot with its body shape built to resemble the human body.

With robots doing jobs once done by humans the implications are that humans will become more lazy and no one would do work again.

The ethical implications of creating robots that are becoming more human-like are that humans will use them for war. also the robots may be a replacement for humans.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is the ability of machines to execute tasks and solve problems in ways normally attributed to humans. Truck driving is one of the most common occupations in America today: Millions of men and women make their living moving freight from coast to coast. Very soon, however, all those jobs could disappear. Autonomous vehicles will cover those same routes in a faster, safer and more efficient manner.  A humanoid robot is a robot with its overall appearance based on that of the human body. With robots doing all the job, there would be no jobs left for humans. Robots could be use in a wrong or bad way, humans could take advantage of artificial Intelligence and use robots as a weapon.

Virtual Reality

Virtual reality computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way by a person using special electronic equipment, such as a helmet with a screen inside or gloves fitted with sensors. Tech blog is one of the most sought after niches and not every one succeeds in it.  "Pokemon Go" is a mobile game that's taken over your Instagram feed and broken the internet far more than Kim Kardashian's butt ever could.

Virtual Reality

The definition of virtual reality comes, naturally, from the definitions for both ‘virtual’ and ‘reality’. The definition of ‘virtual’ is near and reality is what we experience as human beings. So the term ‘virtual reality’ basically means ‘near-reality’. This could, of course, mean anything but it usually refers to a specific type of reality emulation.

Augmented reality (AR) is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.

Short for "Web Log," this term refers to a list of journal entries posted on a Web page. Anybody who knows how to create and publish a Web page can publish their own blog. Some Web hosts have made it even easier by creating an interface where users can simply type a text entry and hit "publish" to publish their blog. 

The Pokémon Phenomenon

Pokémon Go combines the use of AR technology with the GPS and camera functions of various smart devices. Developed by Niantic, a company specializing in augmented reality games, Pokémon Go prompts players to explore the real world in search of characters from the Pokémon franchise. After creating and designing an avatar, players view a main map that overlays real-world geographic details such as streets with in-game items and destinations, called PokéStops and Pokémon gyms. As the player moves in reality, the avatar moves on the AR map.

VR

 Augmented reality is the blending of virtual reality and real life, as developers can create images within applications that blend in with contents in the real world. With AR, users are able to interact with virtual contents in the real world, and are able to distinguish between the two.

Tech Blogs 

Gizmodo, one of the oldest tech blogs, is in transition. Instead of covering gadgets and gizmos and apps, it’s shifting its focus to architecture and design. Yes, there will still be some tech news and smartphone reviews, but the editors at Gizmodo have realized the tech blogging space has become far too crowded to just write the same stuff that everyone else is. It’s a smart move.

Examples of tech blogs are Marshable, Gizmodo, Gigoam, and Zdnet

 In Pokemon Go which is an augmented reality, is a game that imposes Pokemon into the real world.
