... What kinds of limitations do you see for users of telepresence? Is it really a substitute for face-to-face meetings? Make a list of features of face-to-face meetings. Then consider a range of business situations as an employee, from initial hire, to working with a team, to understanding what your boss wants, and even a termination meeting. How would telepresence work for you in these situations? Face to face meetings have eye contact, spatial orientation (sounds come from the direction of speakers), and non-verbal gestures (body movements) are visible. The technology is reliable and easy to use. On the face of it, tele-presence would seem to be lacking the kind of personal warmth (or heat) of a face-to-face meeting. Eye contact is difficult even though you can see eyes move on screen; in large screen versions, non-verbal communication might be possible, but not in smaller screen versions. At the least, people’s expectations of a “business relationship” will change from personal contact to “telescreen” contact. However, these tele-relationships might be perfect satisfactory for business purposes. 2. What are the business benefits of telepresence described in these videos? What is the benefit of a hologram?

The application was created by Generation Entity Now (GEN) as a mobile policy and claims system. GEN has been in business offering software solutions for policy, rating and claims since 1971. The GEN Mobile Platform was designed to be an easy way for our increasingly more “mobile” society to manage their insurance needs without the need to wait on the phone, visit agents, or otherwise be detracted from their daily lives. The base price for the GEN Mobile framework is approximately $50,000 depending upon configuration.

...Last summer, my family and I took a trip to France and I experienced a method of ordering food that I have not experienced yet with my time in America. It is a tradition that my family goes into a McDonalds in every country we visit just to see the different foods they offer. When we walked into France’s McDonalds I was shocked. To my surprise, I did not see a normal counter with registers, I saw five big screens taller than me. Customers would order food and pay right on the touch screens. They would get a number and would have to come up to the counter to pick it up. The only workers at the restaurant were the cooks. Robots have completely replaced cashiers in that McDonalds. For many this would sound like a nightmare, but I disagree. Fears of job loss due to robots has been around for decades. Every new generation has their own anxieties about it. While automation has eliminated jobs in specific fields, the total number of employed people is not declining, it is actually rising. The United States is experiencing the lowest unemployment rate in decades. Robots are crucial to our...

I express my deep sense of gratitude to my physics teacher to give me knowledge about the topic and concept related to this particular Term Paper. Without his guidance I cannot imagine to complete my Term Paper on time. In the last, I want to thank my parents, without whom nothing was possible. Contents 1. What is TEM. 2. Principle of TEM. 3. Working of TEM. 4. Uses of TEM 5. Limitations of TEM. 6. References The Transmission Electron Microscope: The transmission electron microscope (TEM) is a scientific instrument that uses electrons instead of light to scrutinize objects at very fine resolutions. They were developed in the 1930s when scientists realized that electrons can be used instead of light to "magnify" objects or specimens under study. View inside cell via sections magnification 120,000 * 50,000X Principle: The transmission electron microscope (TEM) operates on the same basic principles as the light microscope but uses electrons instead of light.

Infrastructure also includes the software used to send, receive, and manage the signals that are transmitted. In some usages, infrastructure refers to interconnecting hardware and software and not to computers and other devices that are interconnected. However, to some information technology users, infrastructure is viewed as everything that supports the flow and processing of information. The limitations of the internet’s infrastructure are as follows: * Bandwidth limitations * Quality of service limitations * Network architecture limitations * Language development limitations * Limitations arising from the “wired” nature of the internet Bandwidth limitations are the reason why the internet can be slow.

This encompasses not only ease of use but also new interaction techniques for supporting user tasks, providing better access to information, and creating more powerful forms of communication. It involves input and output devices and the interaction techniques that use them; how information is presented and requested; how the computer’s actions are controlled and monitored; all forms of help, documentation, and training; the tools used to design, build, test, and evaluate user interfaces; and the processes that developers follow when creating Interfaces.

...1. FILM TRANSLATION 1. THE SPECIFIC FEATURES OF FILM TRANSLATION Film translation is a relatively new branch of translation studies. At the onset of the film making history all productions were silent movies. Ironically this technical difficulty made the early film industry a highly international phenomenon. At that time German, French, Italian and British films were vastly more popular than they are today with only a third of films screened in America being domestic productions. (Cronin, 2009: 2) First films have been translated in Europe during the 1930’s, though the word “translation” may not adequately portrait the process. At that time big film studios simply produced a few separate movies in different languages based on the same scenario. It was only in the 1980’s that a theoretical background started being developed for the 50 year old practice of translating films. (Tomaszkiewicz, 2006: 103) There were considerable controversies even concerning the choice of a name for the new branch of translation studies. In the narrow sense it can be called film translation or cinema translation. However, there are certain similarities between translating films, music, video games and other relatively new means of transferring information, all those together can be called audio-visual translation or (multi)media translation. (Ramael 2001: 13-14). However we decide to call the discipline, it combines aspects of literary and oral translation. On the one hand, it is similar...
