.... the world, the call has gone out for restriction and censorship of the Internet. This rally has been met with mixed results. People who support freedom of speech on the Internet quote from the first amendment of the Constitution. In addition, many groups are in favor of restricting the Internet, similarly to how television is regulated in the United States. In favor of this regulation are groups emphasizing values and some foreign governments. In the latter, often the government does not want the citizens being introduced to new ideas, which may cause discontent and unrest in some cases. Whether the Internet should and can be censored is one debate which affec .....

.... The result was $67 Million in sales last year. That doesn’t come close to an Internet only retailer like Amazon.com, but it is a phenomenal success for Depot’s first year in the Internet market. Increased sales revenue is not the only benefit that this marketing plan has reaped. A new level of efficiency has also been reached. The leading benefit that has created such efficiency is the number of customer orders that Depot does not have to: 1. Take up more of a salesperson’s time on the phone. 2. Take up an order-entry clerk. 3. Waste time trying to understand precisely what the customer needs. (The customer can browse though our entire catalog of .....

.... by the International Organization of Standards (ISO).The main idea in OSI is that the process of communication between two end users in a network can be divided into layers, with each layer adding its own set of special, related functions. Each user is at a computer equipped with these seven layers of function. So, in a given message between users, there will be a flow of data through each layer at one end down through the layers in that computer and, at the other end, when the message arrives, another flow of data up through the layers in the receiving computer. The actual programming and hardware that makes these seven layers of function is usually a combinat .....

.... who build new systems must design the circuit boards, peripherals, and choose how the computer will recognize files. System analysts must also select or design an operating system, which is the way the computer interprets files. During the design of the system, a system analyst must use both math models and other models to solve any problems they may come across (Wisconsin Career Information System 1633.3). Once they are finished, the team must write reports on how to solve any problems the consumer may have with the new system, which, in turn, involves the use of more math models. In order to be capable of completing the above tasks, a system analy .....

.... the core of the machine has stayed basically the same. The only thing that has really changed in the processor is the speed that it translates commands from 1's and 0's to data that actually means something to a normal computer user. Just in the last few years, computers have undergone major changes. PC users came from using MS-DOS and Windows 3.1, to Windows 95, a whole new operating system. Computer speeds have taken a huge increase as well, in 1995 when a normal computer was a 486 computer running at 33 MHz, to 1997 where a blazing fast Pentium (AKA 586) running at 200 MHz plus. The next generation of processors is slated to come out this year .....

.... recommended that everyone to own a Pentium computer. A Pentium computer is currently the fastest CPU in the Intel x86 line. Pentium refers to the Pentium CPU chip or the PC that uses it. The Pentium is the successor to the 486 and was originally going to be named the 586. runs approximately twice as fast as a 50MHz 486. Entertainment has always been an important aspect of human society. From the time when Romans would watch warriors battle in a coliseum, to the creation of the coliseum movie theatre on Macleod Trail, entertainment has been an integral part of human existence. With the development of the computer, the creation of a vast number of ent .....

.... that children should not view, censoring the entire internet will cause more of a problem because it will infringe on the First Amendment and other civil liberties that Americans have fought and bled over for the past 200 years. Almost three years ago, Congress approved the Communications Decency Act, (CDA) which "was designed to protect children by prohibiting "indecent" speech or images from being sent through cyberspace."(Quittner) This law seems somewhat harmless at a first glance until you begin to read some of its clauses. One of the biggest groups that combated this issue was the CIEC, or Citizens Internet Empowerment Coalition. The CIEC soon b .....
