.... program capable of altering or erasing computer memory--is introduced into a computer system. As subjects of crime, computers represent the electronic environment in which frauds are programmed and executed; an example is the transfer of money balances in accounts to perpetrators' accounts for withdrawal. Computers are instruments of crime when used to plan or control such criminal acts as complex embezzlements that might occur over long periods of time, or when a computer operator uses a computer to steal valuable information from an employer. Computers have been used for most kinds of crime, including fraud, theft, larceny, embezzlement, burglary, sabotag .....

.... for manufacturing machines like, spot welders, arc welders, and paint sprayers. Basically, robots are automatic electro-mechanical machines. Most robots are not fully automatic because a human is remotely controlling them using a TV or any other device to get feedback from the robot. Some other devices used to send feedback are radio signals, sonar, optical fiber, and sensors. Powerful computers with Artificial Intelligence programs control robots that are fully automatic. Robots are taught to perform repetitive tasks. Intelligent robots incorporate the other disciplines of Artificial Intelligence like, human sensory simulation for touch, sight, and hearing. .....

.... user possessed a defective chip and could convince Intel that his or her calculations were particularly vulnerable to the flaw in the defective chip then Intel it would supply those people with a new chip. This attitude of 'father knows best' fostered by Intel created an uproar among users and owners of the defective chips. Six weeks after Mr. Nicely went public, IBM, a major purchaser of Pentium chips, stopped all shipments of computers containing the defective Pentium chips. Intel's stock dropped 5% following this bold move by IBM. IBM's main contention was that it puts its customers first, and Intel was failing to do this. Intel's handling of th .....

.... to develop the ultimate layout engine. The social context of the Article was to inform people that Netscape was introducing an open source layout engine, which was aimed at being the smallest yet the fastest layout engine today. The Gecko emphasizes standards, speed, size and source. It is expected to potentially be the fastest, smallest most standards compliant HTML layout engine available. Gecko features an intrinsic support for HTML 4.0, CSS1 and partially for CSS2, Resource Description framework, and even a full Document Object Model level-1 implementation. Gecko also supports both HTML and XML documents. Gecko has been developed entirely under the Open .....

.... millions of Americans to live the digital lifestyle at home with their families as well as at work. The future has never been closer.” Gates has also stated that our homes are where we will see the most radical changes in technology and Microsoft has created a model for what they believe this “PC-Plus” house will be like. An article on the Microsoft website listed a few highlights of Gates’ presentation, stating that the house will include the following: · A high-speed wireless home network that enables users to play music and videos, or display family photographs anywhere they want on any intelligent device. · Windows Media™ Audio Player, which downloads t .....

.... with each other was through letters. Since its invention and after it was finally accepted, though, the telephone has become a machine that most of the world has become dependent upon. Imagine waking up one morning and not being able to use the telephone. To many, this would be a fate worse than death. The use of the telephone has played an intricate role in the lives of millions. Everyone from the poorest man to the President of the United States uses the telephone. It is a luxury that is basically taken for granted. Before it was invented, it was very difficult to communicate with people who were a long distance away. But since its invention, the t .....

.... achievements. In just forty years, computers have come from room-sized machines, that compute slowly and store little data, to machines that fit in your pocket, that store great amounts of data and process very quickly. The computer that is credited with making the first complete digital operation is Howard Aiken’s Harvard Mark I (created in 1937), which was made up of 78 adding machines and calculators. Although Howard’s model was automatic, it was controlled by instructions punched into a roll of paper tape. There was a need for an all-electronic machine. This project was taken up by Dr. J. Presper Eckert Jr., and Dr. John W. Mauchly, with help from a .....

.... They call each other on the telephone and even leave each other messages on answering machines. They watch television and movies. Through their eyes, ears, and written words, people have found ways to share and exchange ideas. With the birth of the Internet, the world has found new ways to communicate with one another.

People in one country can talk to people in another country over the telephone and even see them, in real time, through video conferencing. What people need to communicate is no longer limited by the size of the pa .....
