Introduction

The globalization concept comprises of a variety of meanings which reflect on the diminishing significance of state boundaries together with the rise of the global economic, as well as, social processes. Globalization analysts have put their primary focus on issues e.g. expansion of the global trade, increase in transnational entities and even the increasing tensions between cultures and metropolitan practices. A fundamental element in this transformative process has been the implementation, as well as, the development of the satellite telecommunications system. The telecommunication satellite, an integral element of globalization, was developed in the early 1960s by Marshall McLuhan, who ...

What GPS is

As it often happens with high-tech projects, initiators of development and implementation of GPS (Global Positioning System) were the military. Project of satellite network for determining the coordinates in real time-mode and in any spot on the Earth was named NAVSTAR (Navigation signal timing and ranging), whereas the abbreviation GPS appeared later when the system was used not only for the purposes of defence, but also for civilian purposes (Howell). Today, GPS “provides accurate, continuous, world-wide, three-dimensional position and velocity information to users with the appropriate receiving equipment” (Kaplan, 3).

1086F Origin and Geology of the Solar System

- Introduction
An exoplanet is a term used to describe a planet that is located outside the solar system that includes the Earth (exoplanet, 2013). Astronomer Peter van Kamp made the first announcement of the discovery of an exoplanet in 1963, however, that discovery failed to hold up over time and now has been conclusively disproved (Matson, 2013). The first exoplanet discovery that has stood the test of time was the discovery of two bodies orbiting a neutron star in a system named PSR 1257+12 (Wolszczan and Frail, 1992). Wolszczan and Frail calculated that the masses of these exoplanets would be ...

Introduction

The Geographic Information System (GIS) is a surveying system that is designed for capturing, storing, manipulating, analyzing, managing and presenting of all types of either geographical or spatial data. It is a collection of the system used for collection, manipulation and analysis of geographic information. GIS can be used to refer to a number of processes, technologies and methods. The use of GIS in the management of water resources has been in recognition since time immemorial. GIS, when coupled with other survey methods such as the Remote Sensing, are useful in providing a profound solution for future planning and ...

Introduction

As a field of engineering, petroleum engineering puts much emphasis on production of hydrocarbons in form of either natural gas or crude oil. Production and exploration of these hydrocarbons is a difficult task which presents various challenges to the technologists. To handle this problem, a number of tools and softwares have been created o ensure the task is easy. Although there are many softwares that are used in this industry, some of them are more basic. These may include the ArcGIS, Goggle Earth, he Petra, excel and PHDWin. This paper discusses these softwares and the role they play in the petroleum engineering ...

Introduction

In the past, agricultural production has relied on traditional approaches to enhancing farm production. For instance, farmers in the past used conventional approach such as the migration of birds to determine the climate conditions that were approaching. According to Zhang and Pierce (2013), farmers made planting decisions based on their experiences relating to the climatic conditions. However, traditional approaches to farming have severely resulted to a decrease in output because of the different and varying conditions that are beyond the comprehension of human experiences. As such, sensors have been developed for application in crop and animal faring with the goal ...

Law and order – have always preserved the world from total chaos. From the dawn of the civilization special rules, which were later developed into laws were created to regulate the relations between different individuals within the state. This is the only way to keep things in the society under the control. Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine the world without jurisdiction, modern criminalistics and forensic science and other essential bodies that control order and justice within the country.
As a result specific correctional institutions were created. There are two main types – jails and prisons. The only difference between them ...

“A fax machine is a machine that sends messages to another fax machine by a phone line, at the same moment, when the message is sent to the other machine, it decodes the message and prints it out” (Beau, n.d.). Hence, a process of faxing is by definition "a method of encoding data, transmitting it over a telephone line or radio broadcast, and receiving a hard copy of the text, line drawings, or photographs at a remote location” (Bellis, n.d.). The very first prototype of a fax machine dates back to the middle of 19th century when in 1843 Scottish inventor Alexander Bain created a machine that was ...
