People often speak about morality. They do it when they want to criticize someone or to justify their own behavior. They use the word morality freely enough, without giving a second thought to what they really mean by the word. Besides, it can hardly be denied that different people and especially different communities may act according to different moral principles. Thus, something which is considered quite moral in one community may look absolutely immoral in another, which leads to a conclusion that morality is, in fact, a very relative thing. Speaking about morality, people usually operate such concepts as ...

Are Solar Roadways Viable Technologies for the Future?

Solar roadway refers to road surfaces that are capable of generating electricity through photovoltaic solar power cells (Aggrawal, Mehta and Tiwari 161). One of the existing proposals involves the use of panels that encompass LED signage as well as solar panels that vehicles can be driven on. It is a concept that requires the replacement of roads, highways, sidewalks, driveways, and parking lots with the panels. The layers embedded with LED can be utilized for creating crosswalks and traffic warnings (Hartwig 1). Extra electricity can be used for charging electric vehicles or can be routed into the power grid. ...

Literature Review

Impact Mitigation

Intelligent locomotive bumper designs have been touted as possible life-savers for pedestrians. Paden, Kelly, Hines, Botham and Simms explored the feasibility of a life-saving locomotive bumper (103). There were several motivations behind their paper. Perhaps the most important one was the high number of pedestrians that were killed every year in train impacts. Between the years 2007 and 2012, about 10,950 non-suicide deaths were attributed to train impact on humans. Including suicide deaths on railroads, 28,800 pedestrians were killed during that 6-year period. Also, Paden et al., noted that passenger trains served densely populated areas ( ...

Part 3: Designing, Implementing & Maintaining the Solution

Conceptual Design: When implementing the distributed database, kernel loaded software will be installed on every client machine on the network. Every time an individual client machine is powered on, the distributed database will be powered on and begin filtering incoming traffic into every client machine (Özsu & Valduriez, 2011). This is a very important part of the process as it gives the advantages over the traditional firewalls. Traditional firewalls are implemented on the boundary of an internal network and an external network such as the internet. The firewalls treat the external network as risky while considering the internal network ...

Autonomous cars

The emergent technology chosen by me is ‘Autonomous cars.” Description: Autonomous cars are driverless or self-driven cars which are an innovative and relatively newer form of technology.
