The Mystery Case File of Uncle John!

well, well, well this topic is not a detective case i just make this title to catch the readers who are interested about some case files anyway this is about my dream innovation i hope you like this post and please leave some comments... =)

Our world faces a new era today we have seen lots of innovation and new technology trends. We enjoy engaging with this new gadgets like cellphones, ipod, laptops and other stuffs, yet people are still not satisfied in what they have and possess thus upgrading takes into place. Man, life today is very easy you just need to press a button and bingo you have already send a message or simply swipe to pay your bills wow! that's good, but as what they say with great technology comes a great consequence. looking back in the other side we have seen the deteriorating environment and we cannot deny that the main contributor with this environmental change is our technology today. happy and sad that's how we feel today were happy with this new technology but were sad because of our environment but Green Computing takes into account in order to save the environment. We have seen lots of strategies in order to protect the environment but many people still do not abide on it including myself sometimes i fail to follow it. Being an IT is very hard especially if your task is to make an innovation that can contribute to the community and at the same time it has a least consequence.

Crime Scene Investigation, you can run but you cannot hide! be aware, Watchmen is watching!

We have seen so many crimes today and we have seen that it is one of the major problem not just in our country but globally, If I were to make an innovation it would be a "Watchmen Satellite" It is an AI in which it is coded with lots of probability that a crime will occur in a certain area thus the crime will be stop before it will take place. I get this idea from the film Minority report and it is a cool thing to know a 0% crime rate... hehehe Although I know that this thing is very impossible but with globe everything is possible... just making a joke here! hehehe. Anyway through that satellite it can also solve crimes that happen a long time ago just input the crime scenes situation and every possible angles of the that crime when it is done you input the possible suspects of the crime that is identified. For example Uncle John has been murdered in his house and his Last Will and Testament is missing, who might have thought to steal the will? in this case, through this information the watchmen satellite will watch every moves of the suspects involve thus, it will know who steal the will of Uncle John. The satellite will serve as a brain of every crimes that took place and the more crimes he solve the more probability that his IQ will increase because in every crime people have motives in making that crime thus their is a chance that their are two motives that are similar, in this case the satellite will have an idea in solving it through his past similar crimes that had happen. This Satellite will serve as a Secret Agent in every police department and I get this idea from watching the anime Detective Conan. Base on that anime this innovation came in to my mind but we cannot deny that if you are a possible suspect you will be on a surveillance mode. thus every move will count even you are in CR, taking a bath every thing is being recorded in order for him to get the smallest detail in the crime but you must not worry because your confidentiality will not spread and your photos in taking a bath will be erase if the AI will see that their is no detail in that aspect. The job of the detectives is to analyze the given conclusion of the machine and if they see that it is accurate then the Mystery case of Uncle John is solve!

Grudges in your Brain! watch out! Clean it before it is too late!...

My next innovation that will introduce is somehow has a connection on the first but this time it is called a "Brain Scanner" through this scanner it will serve as a lie detector test it will be use to reassure that the conclusion made by the watchmen Satellite is really accurate if the possible suspect has already been identified by the watchmen satellite it will send all the information of the suspect including its residency. If it is already identified the brain scanner will take place this how the machine works in my own perspective view.

Example you have Identified two suspects named "Suspect Alice" and "Suspect Sally" they have the same motives to kill uncle John thus the thing to know who is the real culprit is to use the brain scanner it will record all your memories in a certain situation. So to identify the real suspect it is very hard since they say you can pass easily the lie detector test today by controlling your heart beat and your emotion and we cannot deny the fact that their are many who bypass the lie detector today, but with this scanner if you ask a question about the crime scene we cannot deny the fact that with a second glimpse everything will flash back in our mind and the brain scanner already identified the real suspect before he change his mind and think about other things to avoid remembering what have he done in the CASE of UNCLE JOHN. Wow, that's a very good thing to hear a 0% crime rate and to know that the death of uncle John has been given a justice and the real suspect is really identified! The law of this machine is never to harm man and keep the privacy of a person involve in the surveillance and lastly never make a conclusion without a real evidence.

Great things really Happen!

For me, it is very fun to solve some mystery case and I dream of becoming a great detective but it is only a dream who knows for they say that if you have a dream it may come true if you have a mission and vision.. hehehe.. Hmmm, I guess pushing this kind of project the suspect will think twice if they will pursue their crimes or not for God is not the only one watching the suspects but also the watchmen.. I guess people will appreciate this kind of thing but as I said this "PROJECT WATCHMEN" is a confidential it means only the tough people in the police department knows that PROJECT WATCHMEN exist and we cannot also deny the fact that some hearsays will arise in this project but as long as its in the outer space and rockets will still be expensive in that time PROJECT WATCHMEN will remain confidential and mystery in every lives of man.

My Conclusion!

Hmm, having read and making this assignment it is really fun, and being an IT student and to come up with this innovation it is really good and a great challenge for me to pursue this kind of innovation. Their are lots of innovation that we can think and some are already mention by my classmates just read their story in case you have time and you will be amaze on the ideas that came up with their puzzled minds!! hahaha .. na puzzled bya jud ko ani!! kamo gi sunggo pud mo noh? Imagine 2000 words! hehehe..

Case is Close!

that's all for to now, and I have given my own innovation and ideas regarding this assignment and I think that everybody enjoys and will read all the articles that was publish in this forum, remember don't make a crime for Watchmen is watching your crime moves, that's all for today case is close! Kudos! Have a blessed Day today!




Assignment 3 - Relate significant events in society to innovations in technology.

Mysteries left unsolved

Living in this kind of world in this kind of age where great innovation is evolving we have seen lots of innovation today, we enjoy engaging with this kind of stuffs like cellphone, laptops, computers, iphones, ipod, psp and other cool stuffs but with this kind of innovation lies a mystery on how it started and when did it start. For me innovation exist through a narrow thinking of everyman, it exists in order to flow in the trends of this world and meet the needs of every person in order for man to live a happy, fast, simple or to shorten it a perfect life. Man wants to be perfect we have seen this back in the garden of eden Adam as what the bible say created as a perfect human being and that is why it is imbued in us that we must achieve perfection in our lives we fight for it and everyday we live with it and everyday man continues to struggle and his existence has a probability that will lead to great innovations. People innovate because of some reasons like they really want it or to solve some monstrous problem or they did it because they just want to be famous, name it all! these are some reasons how innovation takes into account. Significant events in the country is also a reason why people innovate just as what my fellow classmates said in their earlier posts that the historical 'war' that took place in this world about a thousand years ago is an example of a significant event that lead to some innovations like making atomic bombs and other war crafts! These event marks a scar not only in our lives but also in our technology and in our history today. Who can forget Albert Einstein who formulate the equation E = mc2 or best known for his theory of relativity, his existence really gives a lot of contributions in out technology today.

About this topic i thought that their are some significant events that leads to innovation like in the field of medicine. The smallpox scare that was first seen in northeastern Africa around 10,000 B.C.E. is an event that scares the whole world and we cannot deny that their are lots of people who lost their lives with this deadly virus and because of this event the vaccine takes into account their are some innovations that occur in order to solve this kind of problem. Today, Cancer is one of the deadliest known disease in the whole world no one is excuse not to have this kind of illness if it strikes you, you better watch out , you better not cry! many research has been made and many innovations took place one of this is what they called the nanotech-laser which can kill cancer and preserve healthy cells. Scientists at Stanford University have developed a new laser therapy that destroys cancer cells but leaves healthy ones unharmed. The new, non-invasive treatment is described in a study published in the Aug. 1 online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Through this cancer cells the nano-technology was seen and was develop and they say that this innovation may be the key to solve the ever feared CANCER and may be the fountain of youth. Wow, i'm really shock about this statements and who will ever thought that this will happen in my history and I think that innovations are a key in order to see the great wonders of God and we cannot deny the fact that in this world no one knows the history of man and only God knows what have happened in the eternity past. Well, this is only my observation and my own opinion in this topic.. Well, well, well the field of medicine really contributes a lot about our technology today we have seen this x-ray machines laser therapy and even robots today is being use in a surgical operations and complicated stuffs like heart transplant i've seen a robot who performs the operation but of course behind it is a man controlling the robot.

Innovation is really evolving and it continues to evolve based upon the motives of man and some environmental change. If their is something fishy that will happen expect that innovation will take place just like in astronomy people are curious about these lights in the sky and it becomes a hearsay to everyone and out of curiousity man innovates telescope and even rockets in order to see what is the mystery behind this lights in the sky... Man, this world is full of mysteries and we are not force to unlock all these mysteries their are some that is meant to be keep and let the history flows with it. Technology is one of the key in solving these mysteries, mysteries that might become a significant event in our country and to the whole world. But we must put in to account that these significant events are needed in order for man to see the beauty of this word they called "LIFE". We cannot deny the fact that technology is needed in our day to day agendas in order to save time and effort but we must no become slaves to it. technology is made in order to solve the problems but on the other side technology might become a source of a new significant event in the whole world only time will tell.

Assignment 4 - Prominent book authors said that technology is the biggest contributor to climate change, in you capacity as an IT student, how would you address this global problem? Enumerate steps and actions to be taken.

Technology? or Environment? You're free to choose..

Our world faces a new era today an era were high-technology arises weve seen it in our naked eye touch it with our delicate skin and even hear it with our gentle ears but as far as im concern we know that behind these things and unique gadgets is a deteriorating environment, weve experience some climate changes today their are some disease that spreads rapidly and were aware that this technology is a big contributor with this drastic climate change! bulag ka ba? or nag bubulagbulagan? but eventhough we know all these things weve heard this so many times, weve read some articles regarding this and that and eventhough weve experience the effects of it still man is really stupid! hehehe and im one of it.. Man wants to go faster, send message in less than a second , he wants to be finished in his job as soon as possible in short man wants a perfect world thats why technology arises in order to solve mans problem but look at our environment look at you look at yourself in the mirror, did you question whats really important? technology? or our environment? man these questions are really hard... According to some articles the e-waste is really harmful to our environment and to us people but we continue to be blinded by these things patay-mali kung baga!
Hey dude! whats going on in this world? maybe we need a paradigm shift in order to settle some things.

As an IT student

I cannot deny the fact that Im the one who is destroying the environment im one of these people and it is really frustrating to know that and to know that my course has something to do with this freaking stuffs! what the heck! but this is my destiny and all i have to do is to find ways on how to minimize the effect of this technology in our environment. Im one of the supporters of green campus computing and I love this kind of act because i know it will really help us in facing this global change brought by these technology. Having a green computing it is fun you know that you're helping not only yourselves but also your environment and i happy to know that their are some ways in helping the environment some of these are:

these article is taken from my first assignment in MIS1 about GCC:

"As I first read the assignment I was shocked because I know that our school
needs this kind of project and I am happy that I have given a chance to
suggests ways for my school to adopt it. Base on my observation our computer laboratory consists of so many desktop computer but unfortunately these computers has some deffects I have read that their are computer stores that buys old models of desktop computers and some parts of it for them to resale it. The school can sell the computers that has deffects to these stores to gain a little money out of trash. We all know that we cannot just throw away these old computer to the trashcan beacause it has a lead content that can harm us. The school can also use these old models of computers or has deffects for IT students to know some hardware parts for actual and practical purposes. For the new computers and those who still in good condition the school can save electrical consumption by teaching and giving orientations to students on how to save energy in the laboratory. Building a forum and organization of green campus computing is a way for the school to give lectures to students and gives a harmony between the environment and our campus. "

maybe you already know now some ideas and points about what im implying..

Assignment 6

Technology always change and Everyday I think their are new gadgets that we can see in the market and we became fan a of these things. The question is what lies ahead in the future? and are we ready for these changes? Honestly speaking while I was browsing the internet I was amaze in the technology that ive seen especially this one:

"The Audi Shark is a flying vehicle. A two-seater flying car was inspired by the designs of the motorcycle and the airplane combined. With sleek shark-look, the lights are made of transparent tubes, sporty seats and cockpit-like interior design" - tuvie.com


i did not expect that this thing will really came eventhough I know their willl be a 99.9% chance that it will be done i just can't believe it. hahaha

In terms of technology the changes will be in this different areas:
Transportation, Medicine and Environment I will be discussing these areas since some already discuss about communication and other areas.

Well to start of, the first thing I will be discussing is the transportation:

In terms of transportation not discussing the Audi shark that i already mention at the top of this article, Ive also read about the "Quantum Teleportation"

"Teleportation is the name given by science fiction writers to the feat of making an object or person disintegrate in one place while a perfect replica appears somewhere else. How this is accomplished is usually not explained in detail, but the general idea seems to be that the original object is scanned in such a way as to extract all the information from it, then this information is transmitted to the receiving location and used to construct the replica, not necessarily from the actual material of the original, but perhaps from atoms of the same kinds, arranged in exactly the same pattern as the original. A teleportation machine would be like a fax machine, except that it would work on 3-dimensional objects as well as documents, it would produce an exact copy rather than an approximate facsimile, and it would destroy the original in the process of scanning it. A few science fiction writers consider teleporters that preserve the original, and the plot gets complicated when the original and teleported versions of the same person meet; but the more common kind of teleporter destroys the original, functioning as a super transportation device, not as a perfect replicator of souls and bodies. " - http://inventors.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=inventors&cdn=money&tm=882&f=00&tt=3&bt=1&bts=1&zu=http://researchweb.watson.ibm.com/quantuminfo/teleportation/



well, well, well if this issue will be solve what a great thing to be teleported in one place to another. It seems that the prediction of a teleporter is really comming soon.. Lets just see if it will solve some ethical issues that will arise.

In the field of Environment i will discussing about the modular homes

"Modular homes are built using an engineered approach to produce buildings in a more efficient and cost effect method. These homes are designed by combining several necessary modules that are necessary for everyday life, which is a great invention. The designer has made the homes 100% environmentally friendly with an attractive place to live at a very reasonable cost 750 euros per square meter. Since, the homes are not really big, mostly around 100 square meter, the project duration has been reduced."




These modular homes can be a better place to live in with a 100% environment friendly materials it will be a cool place to built and to stay you are enjoying the environment as well as the place you are staying.

Lastly in the field of medicine: People really aspire to stay young and bet you the fountain of youth is somewhat getting closer to our planet, well some scientist continue to seek the fountain of youth through the use of the medical technology and if they become successful well i think will become like benjamin button... hahaha.... Preparing for these changes is a must in order for us to adapt these kind of technology some of us might not understand and some will try to understand but for me I guess the best preparation for me to do is to know the informations in these gadgets that will arise the more Information you have the more you will understand its use we cannot tell maybe these gadgets will bring harm or not in our society so i will better study these technology for the purpose of knowing what lies ahead...

Assignment 7

- Technology is getting faster and smaller all the time, this we know from Moore’s law. However, life expectancy and quality of life and technology’s ability to alter it, is going to create a number of moral choices for people ..

Formulate ethical question(s) for future technology and have at least 5 of your classmates answer the question(s)... 1 thread per sutdent ...

"The prediction regarding the robots existence to mingle with humans is fast approaching and if these thing will happen how do we treat them in our day to day? Is it a moral thing to turn it off when not in used? At what point has a machine gone from a mere device, to an entity worthy of moral protection?"
