Final exer 4.Scientific discovery 1. What is artificial intelligence? It is a software that can process information on its own without human interventions which means it is very advanced because it doesn't anymore need us to operate. 2. What is genetic engineering? Genetic engineering is the insertion of foreign genes into microorganisms to enable the microorganisms to produce specific gene products or to enable them to be used for other purpose.  For me, this is one of technology's advantage which helps prolong human life as well as help in farming and other endeavor. 3. What is virtual reality? Since virtual reality is an artificial environment that feels like a real environment it is a very good place where a person could practice a certain skill like that done by student pilots.  They have this simulation room where they feel like they are flying a real plane in which they could check their capability before doing the real thing. 4.  What is E-commerce? It is conducting business online which for me is very convenient and helps a lot those home-based, micro-businesses become known and enable it to expand its customer base.  Thus it makes a business grow and earn more profit. Final Exer: Technological Issues 1. What is plagiarism & copyright? Plagiarism is presenting someone else's idea or work as your own, without authorization in short, its piracy while copyright is the exclusive right granted by law for a certain number of years, to make and dispose of literary, musical or artistic just like in the music industry where composers/singers has copyright of their songs and hackers do plagiarism that is why pirated dvds proliferate in the market. 2. What is computer crime? It is a criminal act committed through the use of a computer example are unauthorized use of a computer and copyright violations of software. 3. What is computer virus? It is a program written usually by a hacker to cause the corruption of data on a computer examples are trojan horse, time bomb and worm.

Final exer 4.Scientific discovery 1. What is artificial intelligence

? -is the area of computer science focusing on creating machines that can engage on behaviors that humans consider intelligent. The ability of a computer or other machine to perform those activities that are normally thought to require intelligence.

2. What is genetic engineering?

-Scientific alteration of the structure of genetic material in a living organism. It involves the production and use of recombinant DNA and has been employed to create bacteria that synthesize insulin and other human proteins.

3. What is virtual reality?

-A computer simulation of a real or imaginary system that enables a user to perform operations on the simulated system and shows the effects in real time. 4.  What is E-commerce? -refer to electronic data interchange (EDI), in which one company's computer queries and transmits purchase orders to another company's computer. Commerce that is transacted electronically, as over the Internet.

Final Exer: Technological Issues 1. What is plagiarism & copyright?

-Plagiarism is when someone steals expressions from another author's composition and makes them appear to be his own work while copyright is legal right granted to an author, composer, playwright, publisher, or distributor to exclusive publication, production, sale, or distribution of a literary, musical, dramatic, or artistic work.

2. What is computer crime?

-Computer crimes encompass unauthorized or illegal activities perpetrated via computer as well as the theft of computers and other technological hardware.

3. What is computer virus?

-A computer program that is designed to replicate itself by copying itself into the other programs stored in a computer. It may be benign or have a negative effect, such as causing a program to operate incorrectly or corrupting a computer's memory. a.Polymorphic Virus Polymorphic viruses encrypt or encode themselves in a different way (using different algorithms and encryption keys) every time they infect a system. b.Direct Action Viruses The main purpose of this virus is to replicate and take action when it is executed. When a specific condition is met, the virus will go into action and infect files in the directory or folder that it is in and in directories that are specified in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file PATH. This batch file is always located in the root directory of the hard disk and carries out certain operations when the computer is booted. c.Boot Virus This type of virus affects the boot sector of a floppy or hard disk. This is a crucial part of a disk, in which information on the disk itself is stored together with a program that makes it possible to boot (start) the computer from the disk. 4. Is working with computers for a long period of time can cause various types of health problems? Why? give EXAMPLES? - Yes, there are studies shows that using computer may cause various types of health problems as we know radiation is one of the reason that people may acquired all forms of cancer such as Leukemia and other. The long period of time working in front of computer will damage our eyes and sometimes we can feel back pain and others.

VIEL T. AGNES BSN 2-I   FINAL EXER   1.) What is artificial intelligence? >is the area of computer science focusing on creating machines that can engage on behaviors that humans consider intelligent. The ability to create intelligent machines has intrigued humans since ancient times, and today with the advent of the computer and 50 years of research into AI programming techniques, the dream of smart machines is becoming a reality. 2.) What is genetic engineering? >is the alteration of genetic material by direct intervention in genetic processes with the purpose of producing new substances or improving functions of existing organisms. It is a very young, exciting, and controversial branch of the biological sciences. On the one hand, it offers the possibility of cures for diseases and countless material improvements to daily life. Hopes for the benefits of genetic engineering are symbolized by the Human Genome Project, a vast international effort to categorize all the genes in the human species. 3.)What is virtual reality? >is a technology that allows people to enter and interact with three-dimensional computer graphics worlds. Another term for these worlds is virtual environments. When a person uses a virtual world the sensory information that is present in the real world is replaced by computer-generated information, which may be of sufficient fidelity to allow the person effectively to believe that they are in the virtual world. 4.)What is electronic commerce? >A type of business model, or segment of a larger business model, that enables a firm or individual to conduct business over an electronic network, typically the internet. Electronic commerce operates in all four of the major market segments: business to business, business to consumer, consumer to consumer and consumer to business.   LAB PERFORMANCE   1.)What is the difference between plagiarism and copyright? >Plagiarism is using someone else's work without giving proper credit - a failure to cite adequately while Copyright is using someone else's creative work without getting the person's permission, which can include a song, a video, a movie clip, a piece of visual art, a photograph, and other creative works, without authorization or compensation, if compensation is appropriate. 2.)Waht is computer crime?give 2 examples >encompass unauthorized or illegal activities perpetrated via computer as well as the theft of computers and other technological hardware. As firms of all sizes, industrial orientation, and geographic location increasingly rely on computers to operate, concerns about computer crime have also risen, in part because the practice appears to be thriving despite the concerted efforts of both the law enforcement and business communities to stop it. But computer experts and business consultants alike note that both international corporations and modest family-owned businesses can do a great deal to neutralize computer "viruses" and other manifestations of computer crime. 3.)What is a computer virus?give 3 examples >A program that enters a computer (usually without the knowledge of the operator). Some viruses are mild, and only cause messages to appear on the screen, but others are destructive and can wipe out the computer's memory or even cause more severe damage.Computer viruses spread from machine to machine on disks and through telephone lines. a)Polymorphic Virus

>encrypt or encode themselves in a different way (using different algorithms and encryption keys) every time they infect a system.

b)Different malware types - Malware is a general name for all programs that are harmful; viruses, trojan, worms and all other similar programs. c)Boot Virus

>This type of virus affects the boot sector of a floppy or hard disk. This is a crucial part of a disk, in which information on the disk itself is stored together with a program that makes it possible to boot (start) the computer from the disk.

4.)Is working with computers for a long period of time can cause various types of health problems? Why? give example >yes, as we all know that long exposure to monitor that is dangerous due to the radiation and causing a person have a disease like skin damage, also in the eyes many compications and sometimes lead to cancer like leukemia. many studies shows that there are effects of this kind of lifestyle.
