Nowadays technology develops so rapidly that it is almost impossible to know all emerging technologies. One of the emerging areas of computer science is 3D IC. So what is 3D IC? 3D IC is an acronym that stands for three-dimensional integrated circuits. Three-dimensional integrated circuit is a computer chip that has two or more layers of active devices that can be installed both vertically and horizontally into a single circuit. One may also ask what the idea for creating a new type of integrated circuit was. When 2D integrated circuit was introduced first time, it was the most productive, cheapest, smallest and power saving IC. However, as technology develops, higher requirements are set for new ICs. The current integrated circuits are no more enough for new electronic devices since they consume a large amount of power and have a noticeable circuit delay. Big corporations were trying to find a type of ICs that would be faster, power economical ICs, and cheaper for the manufacturing company. Moreover, many companies such as Apple, Samsung, VAIO and other companies have a tendency to ...
The decision of the House of Lords in City of London Building Society v Flegg marks a key stage in how the balance is drawn between occupiers and creditors in priority disputes; the seeds of which were originally planted in the Law of Property Act 1925. It posed a serious challenge to the conventional understanding of overreaching and the machinery of conveyancing.Ref ?
On average, the processor spends 56%, 73%, 83% and 71% of the run time in P1-C1-P3-C1 states for SYSmark 3D Modeling, E-Learning, Office Productivity and Video Creation and on an average, it spends 73%, 81%, 90% and 84% of run time in P1-P3 states respectively. As we discussed in the earlier section that the process technology T1 that exhibits lower Pleak at lower VDD and Fmax ranges will lead lower total power consumption in exchange for higher Pleak at Fmax > FmaxTDP that can rarely happen for processors running multiple applications
First generation college students are students who comprise a distinct minority within most institutions of higher learning. These groups of students are the first generation of students in their family lineage to attend a college or university (Allwood, 1966). Due to the lack of family guidance in navigating through the college experience, first generation students face an array of obstacles upon entering the realm of higher education. These students are less likely to obtain their bachelor degree due to finance, family support and retention, all which ultimately limit their college experience. Not only do these students experience issues migrating through high school into college, they also lack the necessary resources some students need to achieve higher standards. For instance financial assistance, mentorship, and other motivating factors that can help a student grow into a professional.
Theodora Jankowski’s article argues that despite the Duchess’ failure to create a “successful means by which she can rule as a woman sovereign”, she defies “Jacobean society’s views” (Jankowski 222) concerning the depiction of the female body and sexuality. The contradictions in the notion of a female ruler are explored in the ways the Duchess is presented using her “body natural and body politic” (222). Jankowski points out that instead of using her body’s potential for power, the Duchess attempts to divorce her natural body from her political body, and in turn separates her public and private lives. By keeping her second marriage and children private, she creates a triple position as wife, mother, and ruler, and therefore becomes a threatening figure, especially to her brother Ferdinand who sees her private life as unacceptable and over sexual. Jankowski explores the Duchess’ journey from ruler, to wife and mother, to eventually a suffering martyr. She concludes that even though the Duchess refuses to unite her body natural and her body politic, the nature of her marriage is revolutionary and challenges social custom and foregrounds her character in its subversive ideology with great power (244).
For ages, humans have been condemned for their misdemeanors and insubordination towards society's strict justice system; though, at a first glance, this suggests a degrading society, the classification and branding of a person who has committed a sin is what characterizes humans as human beings. In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s novel, which sets during the early colonization of America, The Scarlet Letter bears a tale of a married woman, named Hester Prynne, who commits adultery with the Minister of Boston, Massachusetts, Arthur Dimmesdale, where they both share their perceptive daughter, Pearl. Though Hester's husband, who is originally a resident of Europe, discovers this shameful truth about his wife, Roger Chillingworth embarks on a journey of vengeance to ascertain the name of the man who has eluded his punishment for adultery. On the other hand, Hester Prynne is branded with the scarlet letter, serving as to shower shame onto Hester while incarcerating her into public humility. Although many individuals are incapable of attaining true redemption, the scarlet letter, whose primary purpose was to bring shame to Hester, failed to carry out its office. As a result, the letter configured itself to Hester and the society in which she resided in, all while acquiring a multitude of meanings as Hester, and other characters, begin to understand the meaning and themselves even further.
Rapid technological development has increased the demand for compact and reliable electronic devices. Compact sized products with improved connectivity coupled with high speed will likely emerge winners. Connectors are an integral part of such devices. The key drivers of the connector industry are growing 3C applications (computing, communication, and consumer electronics), miniaturization of electronic devices, and increasing electronic content in devices.
Throughout its history, Intel has centered its strategy on the tenets of technological leadership and innovation (Burgelman, 1994). Intel established its reputation for taking calculated risks early on in 1969 by pioneering the metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) processing technology. This new process technology enabled Intel to increase the number of circuits while simultaneously being able to reduce the cost-per-bit by tenfold. In 1970, Intel once again led the way with the introduction of the world’s first DRAM. While other companies had designed functioning DRAMs, they had failed to develop a process technology that would allow manufacturing of the devices to be commercially viable. By 1972, unit sales for the 1103, Intel’s original DRAM, had accounted for over 90% of the company’s $23.4 million revenue (Cogan & Burgelman, 2004).
The Medici appeared as the first important bourgeoisie family, which supported the artists, writers and philosophers, in the history. However, we cannot consider the Medici as another ordinary bourgeoisies lived at the same time with them because their fortune and political power could not be compared with other bankers, merchants and higher classes of the society. The beginning of their dynasty accelerated the Italian Renaissance, especially in Florence. During the reign of Cosmo and Lorenzo de’ Medici, the Republic of Florence was transformed into the center of finance and trade of the world and also many of the most significant examples of the arts of classical antiquity like architecture and sculpture were generated under the patronage of the Medici family. In addition to these developments, new art forms like oil painting acquired importance and appreciation.Although the renaissance or ‘reborn’ spirit had started to be generated in Italy before the Medici, their impact and influence on the era cannot be underestimated.
“After the integrated circuits the only place to go was down—in size that it. Large scale integration (LS) could fit hundreds of components onto one chip. By the 1980’s, very large scale integration (VLSI) squeezed hundreds of thousands of components onto a chip. Ultra-Large scale integration (ULSI) increased that number into millions. The ability to fit so much onto an area about half the size of ...
Its Fourth-generation quad-core Intel Core i7 processor is remarkable for good performance and visuals. It enables the user to feel and see in high definition and 3D; and gives room for multitasking and media. The thrilling speeds are modeled for smooth and seamless games, photos and movies. The chip has a transistor count of 1.4 billion and a die size that is 177 square millimeters. Additionally, it has an incorporated processor graphics, and a dual-channel DDR3 support of up to 1600MHz (Williams & Sawyer, 2010).
The LGBT, an abbreviation of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, is a term popularly used to refer to the community of people with a non heterosexual sexuality, the term has been used since the 1990’s as the community was referred to as just the ‘gay community’ leaving many feeling unrepresented. Over the years there has been much debate about who is included within the LBGT including many changes such as the inclusion of the letter Q which would stand for Queer, a word itself that has been through many changes over the years from originally meaning something strange or odd, which was then used against homosexual people in order to abuse and discriminate, since then the LGBT community have tried and for the most part succeeded in reclaiming
3D an ever-growing technology that started in the 1800’s, started as photography and grew into a visual success, this report is going to look into the history of 3D technology and go through the how its was originally created to how its created now, to the formats that is used and what to expected in the future. Going to discuss the different styles and variations of the technology and how it has become a great success, and how there could come an end to the technology as there has been a decline in interest and the distribution of 3D Technology.
This was a space-saving feature that also increases the speed of how fast the chip would run. With this technological breakthrough we started seeing the most advanced processors in machines take place
My interest in Computers dates back to early days of my high school. The field of CS has always fascinated me. The reason for choosing CS stream was not a hasty decision. My interest started developing in the early stage of my life, when I studied about the invention of computers. The transformation from the large size to small palmtops enticed me to know about the factors responsible for making computers, also the electronic gadgets so small. I was quite impressed after seeing a small chip for the first time in my school days, especially after I learnt that it contained more than 1000 transistors, “integrated circuits”.
3D printers have been in the works since the late 1980s. The very first functional models were the size of refrigerators and cost more than $100,000. Nowadays, 3D printers have become a household commodity with thousands of people making YouTube videos. 3-D Systems, a company based in North Carolina, has come out with a much newer model. “The Cube” is their latest 3D printing machine. It is only the size of a toaster oven and cost only $1,299 (Tweed). Due to years of hard work and an expanding market, the 3D printer has become half the size and a fraction of the price.
