Government communicate using global technology. Mass meetings are held using video conferencing and speaker phones. Massive oversea trade deals are made overseas with the aids of phones, fax, and the .....

.... solution of problems never before possible. What is Computer-Integrated Manufacturing? Utilizing the computer to integrate the fragmented operations of manufacturing into a single, smoothly operating, manufacturing system with reduced total manufacturing costs and turnaround times, and improved quality is generally termed Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM). Another definition that is more precise might be the utilization of computers to control the integration and flow of information between design, engineering, manufacturing, logistics, warehousing and distribution, customers and suppliers, sales and marketing activities, financial management and the ov .....

.... sectors. More importantly, these technologies will provide the education and knowledge for these people to become prosperous nations that can fend for themselves and provide for their people. Transfers of technology from the developed world to the developing world will improve the standard of living, increase efficiency in production and become a base for economic growth, without this transfer these countries will fall further into poverty and economic ruin, with little hope for survival. For most people of the developed world, the developing world is not something they concern themselves with; they do not see it everyday and therefore it does not exis .....

.... "Blue Book Standard" for Ethernet Version 1. This standard was later enhanced, and in 1985 Ethernet II was released. The IEEE's (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers') Project 802 then used Ethernet Version 2 as the basis for the 802.3 CSMA/CD network standard. The IEEE 802.3 standard is generally interchangeable with Ethernet II, with the greatest difference being the construction of the network packet header. This method consists of multiple workstation that accesses a transmission medium called Multiple Access. Here the medium listen until no signals are detected. This is known as Carrier Sense. After checking to see if more than one signal .....

.... artificial satellites in everyday life? If we wish to understand why artificial satellites are so useful, the contributions of each type of satellites will have to be outlined starting with satellites' part of the Global Positioning system (GPS), Reconnaissance Satellites, and finally Telecommunications Satellites. The Global Positioning System provides users with accurate information about their latitude, longitude, velocity and altitude, as well as the time, anywhere in the world and works in all weather conditions. The GPS was initiated in 1973 by Navstar in the United States and then followed by the Soviet Union with their own GPS. Both GPS systems ar .....

.... video signals through their television. In just over a year the consumer technology DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) has made huge wages in the consumer home video market.

Similarly, browsing the web without a very specific subject in mind (as the majority of our fellow humans do) turns this tool into a horrific waste of time. And the vast information stored here is useless, as if it wasn't there. Secondly, to get anything interesting or informative from the web, no matter what the subject, one must know its exact location, else one is compelled to dive into a muddy flood of shit. This leads me to the point of clarifying the term "information": This word usually has .....
