15 Hot New Technologies That Will Change Everything

By

The Next Big thing? The memristor, a microscopic component that can "remember" electrical states even when turned off. It's expected to be far cheaper and faster than flash storage. A theoretical concept since 1971, it has now been built in labs and is already starting to revolutionize everything we know about computing, possibly making flash memory, RAM, and even hard drives obsolete within a decade.
imageThe memristor is just one of the incredible technological advances sending shock waves through the world of computing. Other innovations in the works are more down-to-earth, but they also carry watershed significance. From the technologies that finally make paperless offices a reality to those that deliver wireless power, these advances should make your humble PC a far different beast come the turn of the decade.
In the following sections, we outline the basics of 15 upcoming technologies, with predictions on what may come of them. Some are breathing down our necks; some advances are still just out of reach. And all have to be reckoned with.

INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING Definitions Computer programming is the aspect of translation of user’s ideas in to a form that can be understood by the computer by the use of an acceptable tool called computer programming language. A computer program is a set of coded instructions for the computer to obey and process data. Programming language is set of instructions or a tool used for writing computer programs. NB the purpose of computer programming is to solve the users needs i.e. developing instructions for the computer with the aim of solving a particular user problem. This enables the computer to accept and manipulate data and print results automatically. Development of computer programming languages. Introduction Primary function of programming languages is to provide instructions to the computer system so that it can perform a processing activity. Each programming language uses a set of symbols that have special meaning. Each language has its own rules called ...

Surprising Health Benefits of Love

By
"I need somebody to love," sang the Beatles, and they got it right. Love and health are intertwined in surprising ways. Humans are wired for connection, and when we cultivate good relationships, the rewards are immense. But we're not necessarily talking about spine-tingling romance. "There's no evidence that the intense, passionate stage of a new romance is beneficial to health," says Harry Reis, PhD, co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Human Relationships. "People who fall in love say it feels wonderful and agonizing at the same time." All those ups and downs can be a source of stress . It takes a calmer, more stable form of love to yield clear health benefits. "There is very nice evidence that people who participate in satisfying, long-term relationships fare better on a whole variety of health measures," Reis tells WebMD. Most of the research in this area centers on marriage, but Reis believes many of the perks extend ...
