Computer Fraud And Crimes
... equipped
with a program called "netlog." This is a program that monitors the computer use
of the employees in a company on the network. The program monitors memory and
file usage. A qualified system administrator should be able to tell by the
amounts of memory being used and the file usage if something is going on that
should not be. If a virus is found, system administrators can pinpoint the user
who put the virus into the network and investigate whether or not there was any
malice intended.
One computer application that is becoming more widely used and, therefore, more
widely abused, is the use of electronic mail or email. In the present day,
illegal hackers ...

The POSitouch System
... they found systems but none meeting
there total needs. That is why the Fullers created the company, (R.D.C)
Restaurant Data Concepts. RDC keeps developing better and more efficient
equipment to be used in the food service industry.
Overall, I feel that POSitouch is well worth the initial expense. It
should be looked at as an investment, saving time, and money in all areas needing
tight controls. This management tool has been shown to cut labor, and food costs in
many food service establishments, not to mention the speed of the system, which
could easily increase turnover. There is one important key that should be
recognized for restaurants planning to ...

The Four-Stroke Cycle Of An Engine
... (Doyle 128). The
controlling of the valves start with a cam shaft. A cam shaft has lobes on
it which are all shaped differently, but resemble an oval. On a camshaft
lobe there rests a lifter. A lifter is cylinder shaped and pushes up on a
push rod when the lobes are rotating. A push rod, which is connected to a
rocker arm, then "rocks" down on a spring that in turn pushes open a valve.
This all happens due to the rotation of the camshaft which is geared to the
crankshaft (which is connected to the pistons) which is all part of the
four stroke cycle.
The four-stroke cycle starts with the intake stroke. On the intake
stroke, the piston moves down from its top ...

The History And Development Of Computers
... a Pascaline. It used eight movable dials to add sums up to eight figures long. Pascal's device used a base of ten to accomplish this. When the ten's dial moved one revolution, the dial representing the hundred's place moved one notch and so on. The drawback to the Pascaline, of course, was its limitation to addition.
In 1694, a German mathematician named Gottfried Wilhem von Leibniz, improved the Pascaline by creating a machine that could also multiply. Leibniz's mechanical multiplier worked by a system of gears and dials. By studying Pascal's original notes and drawings, Leibniz was able to refine his machine. It wasn't until 1820 that mechanical calculators ...

Computer Crime
... he/she robbed banks, they world replied, "Because that's where the money
is." Today's criminals have learned where the money is. Instead of settling
for a few thousand dollars in a bank robbery, those with enough computer
knowledge can walk away from a computer crime with many millions. The National
Computer Crimes Squad estimates that between 85 and 97 percent of computer
crimes are not even detected. Fewer than 10 percent of all computer crimes are
reported this is mainly because organizations fear that their employees, clients,
and stockholders will lose faith in them if they admit that their computers have
been attacked. And few of the crimes that are re ...

Masters Of Deception (MoD)
... the same story goes for Mark, Eli, John, Julio, and
Allen. These are the boys who would come to be known as the "MOD BOYS"
(Masters of Deception). They were the hacker gang who dominated the hacking
underworld back in the late 1980s.
They all met through the phone lines. Back then there was no
Internet or AOL yet people could still communicate through computers. All
they needed was a modem and some phone #'s of other modems and they were in
business.
Paul met Eli first. They learned to hack together. After a while
they started looking for bigger and better hacks. They came across a
famous hacker named Phiber Optic (Mark). He taught them all he knew about ...

Warfare Technology
... of battle for the allies. The firearms of the time were becoming faster, increased accuracy, and more lethal. The M-1 Carbine was the standard semi-automatic rifle for all American troops and was later fitted to be fully automatic. The bazooka, invented in 1941 by American scientists, was first used in the invasion of North Africa in war and proved to be excellent anti-tank warfare. It was also during this time that bullets were upgraded from the pinfire type to the rimfire type. The rimfire type proved to be more precise and damaging because of its finer texture and cartridge case. Miscellaneous advancements include chemical agent weapons (i.e. nerve gas, ...

being sent from to the computer to which it is being sent to. Phone lines,
either fibre-optics or copper wires ones, carry most of the data packets.
Internet computers along the path switch each packet that will take it to its
destination, but no two packets need to follow the same path. The Internet is
designed so that packets always take the best available route at the time they
are travelling. 'Routers' which are boxes of circuit boards and microchips,
which do the essential task of directing and redirecting packets along the
network. Much smaller boxes of circuit boards and microchips called 'modems'

Computer Crime
Computer crime is defined as any crime involving a computer accomplished through
the use or knowledge of computer technology. Computers are objects of crime when
they or their contents are damaged, as when terrorists attack computer centres
with explosives or gasoline, or when a "computer virus" a program capable of

The Evolution Of The PC And Microsoft
... is largely regarded as the first PC. However, the
Altair really served no real purpose. This left computer-lovers still yearning
for the ³perfect² PC...actually, it didnıt have to be perfect, most ³nerds² just
wanted their computer to do SOMETHING.
The burning need for a PC was met in 1977, when Apple, a company formed
by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, released itıs Apple II. Now the nerds were
satisfied, but that wasnıt enough. In order to catapult the PC in to a big-time
product, Apple needed to make it marketable to the average Joe. This was made
possible by Visical, the home spread sheet. The Apple II was now a true-blue
product.
