Green computing

introduction:

green computing is environmental friendly and Eco friendly use of computer resources.It is also defined as and disposing of computing devices in a way that reduces their environmental impact.
It involves implementation  of energy-efficient CPUs,servers and peripherals.This is needed to prevent wastage of power consumption of computer.it is needed to reduce pollution  due to manufacturing techniques,,packaging,disposal of computers and components.this is also needed to reduce toxicity as there are toxic chemicals used in the manufacturing of computers and components which can enter the food chain and water.
In one word green computing means usage of computer in a such a way that it could save environment,energy,money.

 lead,mercury,cadmium are chemicals that we use generally in CPU's this are very harmful to our body.

How to achieve green computing?

This can be achieved by using  bamboo,recycle bale plastic,eco friendly flame redundant,inventory management,voice reduction. by implementing this techniques we can achieve green computing.

One of the first manifestations of the green computing movement was the launch of energy star  program back in 1992.
  Energy Star served as a kind of voluntary label awarded to computing products that succeeded in minimizing use of energy while maximizing efficiency.
GOOGLE also introduced a website called blackie which is powered by google this saves energy during usage of internet by reducing by displaying a black background.

precautions needed to save power consumption:

  Turn off the computer when not in use, Use power saver mode
  Use hardware/software with the Energy Star label
   Don’t print unless necessary and you are ready
  Use LCDs instead of CRTs as they are more power efficient
  Consider a smaller monitor-a 14-inch display uses 40% less energy than a 17-inch one.
  Enable Stand By/Sleep mode.

Disposal of waste

           Toxic chemicals in electronics products can reach into the land over time or are released into the atmosphere, impacting nearby communities and the environment..

   green computing can solve this problem by implementing reusing,recycling,reducing.
thus by implementing this procedure the impact of e-waste on environment due to computers can be greatly reduced.

conclusion:


Through more environmentally aware usage(such as more effective power management & shut-down during periods of inactivity) and by adopting current lower power technologies, computers can be made significantly more energy efficient.

Wi-vi the wifi vision

ABSTRACT: A new technology known as  Wi-Vi is bouncing up with a good progress.It is similar Radar and Sonar imaging..it depends on radio signals  of wifi.I monitor movements of people in closed rooms or behind a wall. Wi-Vi was created by Dina Katabi ,a professor  in MIT,and her graduate student Fadel Adib. Wi-Vi technology can detect number of humans in a closed room. Enable communication through a wall without carrying a wireless device.Identify simple gestures from behind a wall. This Wi-Vi signals uses Wi-Fi signals,as Wi-Fi signals can penetrate through walls. Wi-Vi relies on a simple hardware of 2.GHz  Wi-Fi radios small enough to be portably used.Integrated in hand held devices.Low power Wi-Fi signals are used. A Wi-Vi system constitutes-  1.Two transmitting antennas 2.single receiver. This technology is based on principle of Rada and Sonar.Radar and Sonar works on Doppler effect. This technology uses reflected Wi-Fi signals...

Brain chips

Introduction: Thousands of people around the world suffer from paralysis they need to depend on some one for even some basic   tasks brain chips can become  a handy at this case .Brains are made with a view to enhance the memory of human beings, to help paralyzed patients, and are also intended to serve military purposes. It is likely that implantable computer chips acting as sensors, This is like a implantable computer chip in brain. This consists of both biological and electronic term's. A chip in the Braingate system is of 100 hair thin electrodes.It senses electromagnetic signature of Neutrons.The Brain chip provides fast and reliable connection between the brain of a severely disabled person and personal computer. Braingate is a technology is a technology by which the electrical signal is exchanged by neurons within the brains are used to execute body moment .  Hardware of brain chips  It mainly consists of. Four parts ->chips: A Four ...

The truth about hacking

The Process of attempting to gain or successfully    gaining, unauthorized access to computer resources   is called   Hacking. Hacking is been a part of Computer for over 40 year's.The first hacker is from MIT In  the  computer  security  context,  a  hacker  is someone who  seeks  and  exploits  weaknesses  in  a  computer system  or  computer  network.  The programers prefer to refer them as crakers. This are the main reasons for hacker to hack a system. -Just for fun. -Show off. -Notify many people their thought. -Steal important information. -Destroy enemy’s computer network during the war. Hacking is mainly divided into two types - ethical hacking - unethical hacking Ethical hacking is where a person hacks to find weaknesses in a system and then usually patches them.This is Often done to protect from. Hacking Unethical hacking  is often ...
