A Tour Of The Pentium Pro Processor Microarchitecture
2646 Words - 10 Pages.... features, which Intel describes as Dynamic
Execution, enabled the first Pentium Pro processor silicon to exceed the
original performance goal.
Building from an already high platform
The Pentium processor set an impressive performance standard with its pipelined,
superscalar microarchitecture. The Pentium processor's pipelined implementation
uses five stages to extract high throughput from the silicon - the Pentium Pro
processor moves to a decoupled, 12-stage, superpipelined implementation, trading
less work per pipestage for more stages. The Pentium Pro processor reduced its
pipestage time by 33 percent, compared with a Pentium processor, which means the
Pentium Pro proces ....

Is Your Information Safe?
1521 Words - 6 Pages.... There seems to be an
unlimited potential for theft of credit card numbers, bank statements and other
financial and personal information transmitted over the Internet.
It's hard to imagine that anyone in today's technologically oriented
world could function without computers. Personal computers are linked to
business computers and financial networks, and all are linked together via the
Internet or other networks. More than a hundred million electronic messages
travel through cyberspace every day, and every piece of information stored in a
computer is vulnerable to attack (Icove-Seger-VonStorch 1). Yesterday's bank
robbers have become today's computer hackers. They can walk ....

Green Architecture
656 Words - 3 Pages.... can involve an extensive array of factors, ranging from the resourceful use of materials, to careful consideration of function, climate, and location.
The concepts about can generally be organized into several areas of application. These areas include sustainability, materials, energy efficiency, land use, and waste reduction.
Green buildings are not only designed for present use, but consideration is also been given to future uses as well. An adaptable structure can be "recycled" many times over the course of its useful life. If specific technical issues prevent use of the building for a new function, then the materials used in its construction are designed to facil ....

Windows 95 Or NT
684 Words - 3 Pages.... general
public in this day and age. However, in doing so each one of these operating
systems has there good side and there bad side.
Windows NT 3.51 was originally created for business use, but has ended
up being more widely available for the average PC user in ones home. Windows 95
was developed for the sole purpose as an alternative to Windows NT. But has
ended up in the work place more then the home. Windows 95 carries an average
price of ninety-five dollars in stores. Which makes it an expensive system
worth the money. On the other hand Windows NT 3.51 carries a price tag of
three-hundred and forty nine dollars. Making this software very expensive but
also worth e ....

Technology 2
1415 Words - 6 Pages.... basic ideas of what I will expand upon. We have been living through an age of computers for a short while now and there are already many people world wide that are computer literate.
According to Using Computers: A Gateway to Information World Wide Web Edition, over 250 million Personal Computers (PC's) were in use by 1995, and one out of every three homes had a PC (Shelly, Cashman,& Waggoner, 138).
Computers are easy to use when you know how they work and what the parts are. All computers perform the four basic operations of the information processing cycle: input, process, output, and storage. Data, any kind of raw facts, is required for the processing cycle to occur.

The Growth Of The Internet
555 Words - 3 Pages.... by enemy attack, the information on it could be rerouted automatically to other links. This was the birth of the Internet. In order to use anything on the Internet, it is required that you learn to operate a separate program, one for the mail, one for news groups, and several different programs for accessing databases.
This all changed in 1989. A researcher at CERN (a big European physics laboratory) named Tim Berners-Lee started to work on hypertext. By using hypertext he could link together all the different kinds of information available on the Internet.
Berners-Lee called the software pack the World Wide Web.
For the World Wide Web to work, each page has it’s ....

The Inter(esting)net
966 Words - 4 Pages.... five Superconductor Computer Centers to give several
universities academic access to high powered computers formerly available to
only the United State's military (Krol). The National Science Foundation then
built its own network chaining more universities together. Later, the network
connections were being used for purposes unrelated to the National Science
Foundation's idea such as the universities sending electronic mail (today, it is
understood as Email). The United States government then helped pushed the
evolution of the Internet, calling the project: Information Super Highway
(Groiler..).
In the early 1990's the trend then boomed. Businesses soon connected t ....

Videoconferencing
1456 Words - 6 Pages.... cameras, monitors, microphones, speakers, and a communications network. Facsimile machines, telephones, and computer-based switchers may be added to more complex systems.
The communications network can be as simple as a pair of coaxial cables running between the court and the jail, or as complicated as satellite transmission and reception facilities. Unless the organizations wanting to communicate are in the same building or are directly adjacent to one another, a communications network run through the telephone system is the most cost-effective approach. A T1 line (the equivalent of 24 standard voice-grade telephone circuits) or a portion of a T1 is required to run high- ....
