Computer Crimes: Laws Must Be Pass To Address The Increase In Computer Crimes
... in a
position of trust: few would do anything to harm another human, and most do not
consider their crime to be truly dishonest. Most are males: women have tended to
be accomplices, though of late they are becoming more aggressive. Computer
Criminals tend to usually be "between the ages of 14-30, they are usually bright,
eager, highly motivated, adventuresome, and willing to accept technical
challenges."(Shannon, 16:2)
"It is tempting to liken computer criminals to other criminals, ascribing
characteristics somehow different from
'normal' individuals, but that is not the case."(Sharp, 18:3) It is believed
that the computer criminal "often marches to the same dru ...

You've Got Mail
... 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. Just a few short clicks of a mouse, and people can send e-mail, talk in a chat room, and look at personal or corporate homepages. 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 paper, length of the tape, or cost of the call.
As with all forms of communication, people are always concerned with how secure things are. With traditional ...

Technology And Special Education
... Education or Special Education is instruction that is specially designed to meet the unique needs of children who have disabilities. This is done at no cost to the parents. Special education can include special instruction in the classroom, at home, in hospitals, or other institutions. Over 5 million children ages 6 through 21 receive special education and related services each year in the United States. Each of these children receives instruction that is specially designed:
to meet the child's unique needs (that result from having a disability); and
to help the child learn the information and skills that other children are learning (“Questions often asked ...

The History And Future Of Computers
... The primitive start of the computer came about around 4000 BC; with the
invention of the abacus, by the Chinese. It was a rack with beads strung on
wires that could be moved to make calculations. The first digital computer is
usually accredited to Blaise Pascal. In 1642 he made the device to aid his
father, who was a tax collector. In 1694 Gottfried Leibniz improved the machine
so that with the rearrangement of a few parts it could be used to multiply. The
next logical advance came from Thomas of Colmar in 1890, who produced a machine
that could perform all of the four basic operations, addition, subtraction,
multiplication and division. With the added versati ...

Development Of Computers And Technology
... 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 as well, being the next CPU from Intel, code named Merced, running
at 233 MHz, and up. Another major innovation has been the Internet. This is a
massive ...

The Internet Beyond Human Control
... is why most colleges are
hooked up online to the Internet system. The government is trying to figure out
ways to police the Internet so this will not happen. The problem with that is
it is a very hard task to do. It is almost guaranteed this will not happen for
another five to ten years.
Being hooked up online helps make high school easy to slide through. There is a
student at Chichester Senior High School that has a home computer hooked online
with the Internet system. So when he has a term paper due all he does is down
load a term paper on the system with the same topic. He just puts his name on
the paper, hands it in, and receives an A. In return when ...

Computer Communications
... life. But as I incessantly logged onto Cleveland
Freenet that summer, sending e-mail and posting usenet news messages until my
fingers bled, I began to notice the little things. Electronic mail addresses
started popping up on business cards. Those otherwise-incomprehensible computer
magazines that my dad brought home from work ran monthly stories on
communications-program this, and Internet-system that. Cleveland Freenet's
Freeport software began appearing on systems all over the world, in places as
far away as Finland and Germany - with free telnet access!
I didn't live life as a normal twelve-year-old kid that summer. I sat in front
of the monitor twenty-four ho ...

Cyberspace
... 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 itis 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 industry h ...

Creating WebPages By Using HTML
... you must give an ending tag. The only difference between the beginning tag and the ending tag is that a slash must be used with the ending tag. All tags must be surrounded by angle blankets. With the knowledge of the tags and proper combination of the tags, you can create a web page, as you desire.
Now let's start creating a web page. The very first thing you need to put into your HTML document is a tag, it identifies the entire document as an HTML document. The next thing you will do is to create a header. An HTML document can be roughly divided into two sections: header and body. Header is where you display information about your web page, like its tit ...

Interactive Television
... not by themselves. The problem with
interactive television is that it works best with a focused individual
viewer without distractions. It also requires the user to remain indoors
for long periods of time which people don't like to do. Human beings are
social animals. It is this fact that will keep them from being glued to
their television sets. Clearly these factors will not allow interactive
television to overtake the American home.
So what exactly is interactive television and what does it do?
Interactive television is the ability literally to interact with the
television set just like we do with a home computer on the Internet. With
the advent of fib ...
