Computers Of The Future – What Will They Be Like? A Quantum Leap Ahead!

Posted on by [email protected]_84

We all get excited every time new computers get more powerful and hold more stuff. Just hold tight as computers take the next giant step in a few short years. We've seen the computer shrink in size as the 'microchip' becomes smaller and smaller. Now, scientists know that we can reduce the size of the same tasks down to the size of single atom! These are some of the more interesting developments in computer technology.

Quantum Computers are the future …

The weird world of quantum mechanics does not follow the laws of classical physics at all. A quantum bit (qubit) does not exist in the typical 0 or 1 binary state of today's computers – a quubit can exist in either, plus a blend of both states. This minor-sounding difference is the reason quantum transistors will enable a computer to operate 1,000,000,000 times faster than current computers! If you … Read More

Plasma TV Technology

Posted on by [email protected]_84

Before we consider the various plasma television sets available, let us acquaint ourselves with the technology that sets apart these television sets, from the conventional CRT sets. A plasma screen is made up of two sheets of glass. Plasma particles made up of xenon and neon gases fill thousands of tiny chambers between these sheets. These gases are electrically ionized to create plasma. A series of red, blue and green phosphors lie coated near the colour panels behind each chamber. When electricity hits the plasma chambers, a ultra-violet light is emitted. This in turn, hits one of the coloured phosphors. This is responsible for the visible image on the screen. Plasma gases are inert and sealed within tiny cells which, are in turn, sandwiched between glass plates. There is no need to refill or recharge plasma.

This technology revolutionised the concept of television viewing and paved the way for high … Read More

During the earlier years in the movie making business, cartoon series episode are done manually or drawn using the artists bare hands. But as technology advances, the tricks of the trade have been developed, which is why the animated films being shown today become more of a visual delight.

The Technologies Behind Web Design

Posted on by [email protected]_84

Web design is the artistic or professional work of a person in creating content for a website which is published through the internet, or any other network related service to the outside world. The published information is usually viewed by others via a web browser. The internet browsers that are widely used nowadays are Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera.

The primary objective behind web design is to create a website usually in the form of an HTML (hypertext markup language). In the year 1980, a physicist called Tim Berners-Lee proposed and prototyped ENQUIRE, a system for researchers to share documents. Berners-Lee specified HTML as the language to communicate over the Internet and wrote the browser software in 1990. Tim Berners-Lee initiated and published the first website in the year 1991. Berners-Lee was the first to combine both Internet communications (email and Usenet) with hypertext.

When the web progressed, … Read More
