... operating system. Where and what is OpenVMS? OpenVMS was originally called VMS (Virtual Memory System); it was first brought into existence in 1976 as a new operating system for Digital's new, 32-bit, virtual memory line of computers, named VAX (Virtual Address eXtension). The designers of OpenVMS were Dave Cutler and Dick Hustvedt, it was designed entirely within Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). OpenVMS is a 32-bit, multitasking, multiprocessing virtual memory operating system. OpenVMS currently runs on Digital's VAX and Alpha computer systems. Digital Equipment Corporation owned the operating system. It wasn't until January 25, 1998 Compaq computers ac ...

To operate an computer controlled video system is not very difficult and you don’t need a supercomputer. All the crew will need is a Pentium PC compatible, 8 MB Ram, FlashPoint®, 128 Lite Video Frame Grabber Card, and Windows NT 4.0® or Windows 95®.

... game-playing computers, and applied fields such as medical diagnosis. Current research in information processing deals with programs that enable a computer to understand written or spoken information and to produce summaries, answer specific questions, or redistribute information to users interested in specific areas of this information. Essential to such programs is the ability of the system to generate grammatically correct sentences and to establish linkages between words, ideas, and associations with other ideas. Research has shown that whereas the logic of language structure—its syntax—submits to programming, the problem of meaning, or semantics, lies far ...

... and operated by the government, which gives them the obligation to restrict the materials available through it. Though it appears to have sprung up overnight, the inspiration of free-spirited hackers, it in fact was born in Defense Department Cold War projects of the 1950s.2 The United States Government owns the Internet and has the responsibility to determine who uses it and how it is used. The government must control what information is accessible from its agencies. This material is not lawfully available through the mail or over the telephone, there is no valid reason these perverts should be allowed unimpeded on the Internet. Since our initiative, the indus ...

... This also eliminates the need for copying files to floppy diskettes, hand-carrying them to the other computers, and copying the files one-floppy-at-a-time to each, individual computer. This would be a very slow process, compared to a fast network speed. Additionally, if one computer on your network crashes, you can move to another computer and continue your work. So, if you use your network and file server effectively, you can have a high degree of reliability, security, and efficiency. Second, an in- can allow you to have only one Internet connection while giving Internet access to all computers on your network. This is very important if you only have one pho ...

... 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 are free to use by anyone around the world and offers great benefits to the military, commercial companies and civilian residents. On the military side, the ...

... is essential for such a platform. Not providing enough documentation for a system that everyone uses can have disastrous results. Think of it, an operating system is useless by itself, its sole purpose is to provide services to applications. And who would be able to develop applications for an operating system if the documentation for that system is confidential and available only to the company that developed it? Obviously, only the company that has developed that operating system will be able to develop software for it. And this is a violation of the Antitrust Law. And now I start having a suspicion that this is happening with Microsoft's operating sy ...

... 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 telephone has allowed us to contact just about anybody with just the push of a few buttons. It has indeed revolutionized communication. Without , there wo ...

... number of shaded, lighted, textured, and occluded polygons necessary to visually describe the many objects in the scene. Change to the scene is governed by the computer simulation program or database driving the creation of the scene. Thus the visual quality of a VR experience is dependent on the speed of both the graphics-rendering hardware/software and the computer system itself. (Gump) There are four major types of devices currently in use: the head-mounted display (HMD), the binocular omni-oriented monitor (BOOM), the workstation "desktop" model (DEERING), and the projection model (CAVE). The HMD is a tracked helmet worn by the user that provides small telev ...

... in your chair. A gentle warning tone sounds, and looking at your display, you see that California is now glowing a soft red in color, in place of the green glow just moments before. You select the state of California, and it zooms in for a closer look. You see a network diagram overview of all the computers your company has within California. Two systems are flashing, with an X on top of them indicating that they are experiencing problems. Tagging the two systems, you press enter, and with a flash, the screen displays all the statitics of the two systems, including anything they might have in common causing the problem. Seeing that both systems are linked to th ...
