On the Origin and Evolution of Computer Viruses
Trends and industry analysts state that the efforts of the propagators will not relent. Last year marked the first ever mobile phone virus and Bluetooth technology, for example, compounds the threats to security. 35% of PCs in the US are infected while in China and India the rates hit 50%.
Experts in the field of security report the first virus was spread as early as 1981. Fred Cohen, however, wrote in his seminal paper that the first virus was conceived as an experiment on November 3rd, 1983. Since then viruses and malware have plagued and wreaked havoc among computer systems worldwide.
Risks through the Internet
With the advent of such communications advances like the Internet, mobile telephony and Bluetooth (a short range radio technology that simplifies wireless communication among devices such as computers and mobiles. It also aims at quickly and easily connect these devices to the Internet) computer viruses have spread at an alarming rate. The downside to such advances is that where before only a few computers would get infected, now thousands, if not millions, are at the mercy of virus authors.
Early Threats Disable 10% of Computers Infected
In 1987 a large network (ARPANET) used by universities and the US government was infected by a virus. Robert Morris, son of a computer security expert for the National Security Agency, sent malicious code through ARPANET, affecting about 10% of the connected computer hosts – at the time there were only 60,000 hosts connected to the network. The code … Read more
Advances in Hospital Medical Technology
Technology has contributed much in making tasks easy and fast. These advances in technology are being adapted to hospitals and medical centers. And because of this, record keeping is not that difficult to handle. Doctors can easily keep, update and transfer medical records for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
In the past years, record keeping would mean keeping personal records in a sheet of paper and being filed in individual folders. When there is a new update on patient’s record, new record sheets will be inserted to the files. If the patient is being transferred from one hospital to another, patient’s record will be faxed or mailed to another medical institution. And because of this, record keeping is very hard to handle.
But nowadays, with the help of technology, hospitals and health care centers can use electronic medical records for record keeping. If there is a need to update medical records of a specific person, information can be easily inputted to make the records up to date. In this care, patients’ records are all stored in a computer with backups in cases of data loss. When a patient is transferred from one hospital to another; information and records can easily be emailed to the other hospital. This will make the task easy and less risky.
Technology has indeed changed the lives of so many people. And now that it is being used in most medical centers, record keeping would be easier and effective. All information can easily be accessed when needed. … Read more

Across the world, human life expectancy has grown by leaps and bounds. Compared to the 1950s, it has shot up by 50% and comparison with 1980s it has increased by 30%. Long gone are the days when company-sponsored pension plans alone were sufficient to spend one’s golden ages in a relaxed and worry-free manner.
Today, with ascend other expenses like housing, education, healthcare and more, several people are finding it increasingly challenging to save for their retirement.
Unfortunately, the bitter truth is that people of all generations from baby boomers to millennials aren’t saving enough for their retirement. Saving is one of the most underrated worldwide epic crises.
“Retirement is complicated. It’s never too early or too late to start preparing for your Retirement.”

Cryptocurrency Investments – For those who don’t want to place all their Eggs in one Basket

What will happen to your portfolio if the British pound were to crash? And given, today’s volatile political scenario across the globe, nothing is certain.… Read more
Crypto TREND – Second Edition
In the first edition of CRYPTO TREND we introduced Crypto Currency (CC) and answered several questions about this new market space. There is a lot of NEWS in this market every day. Here are some highlights that give us a glimpse of how new and exciting this market space is:
World’s largest futures exchange to create a futures contract for Bitcoin
Terry Duffy, president of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) said “I think sometime in the second week in December you’ll see our [bitcoin futures] contract out for listing. Today you cannot short bitcoin, so there’s only one way it can go. You either buy it or sell it to somebody else. So you create a two-sided market, I think it’s always much more efficient.”
CME intends to launch Bitcoin futures by the end of the year pending regulatory review. If successful, this will give investors a viable way to go “long” or “short” on Bitcoin. Some sellers of Exchange-Traded Funds have also filed for bitcoin ETF’s that track bitcoin futures.
These developments have the potential to allow people to invest in the crypto currency space without owning CC’s outright, or using the services of a CC exchange. Bitcoin futures could make the digital asset more useful by allowing users and intermediaries to hedge their foreign-exchange risks. That could increase the cryptocurrency’s adoption by merchants who want to accept bitcoin payments but are wary of its volatile value. Institutional investors are also used to trading regulated futures, which aren’t plagued … Read more
Beginner’s Guide to Buying a Desktop Computer
People certainly aren’t camping outside stores in the rain to get the latest and greatest desktop computer these days, but PCs are far from dead. Simply put, there are certain functions that mobile devices and laptops either can’t do or can’t do nearly as well as a desktop.
Not to mention, there’s no beating the price. A budget desktop is going to be miles ahead of a budget laptop. It’s expensive to make things small. The small size is what appeals to some people when choosing a new computer, but these days big honking towers aren’t your only choice.
Styles of desktop computers
There’s a lot more variation and choice in the desktop form factor, which is great in some ways, but also makes the buying process that much more complicated. You can find computers in each of these categories at a variety of price points, so the most important thing to keep in mind is how you plan to use your desktop.
Tower
The classic desktop form factor, towers have stuck around for good reason. It’s hard to fit a lot of power into smaller devices like a laptop or tablet for a reasonable price. The power to price ratio of tower computers is pretty much unbeatable.
There’s also a lot more flexibility with a tower. There’s more room to upgrade and expand the system when newer technology comes out, whereas with smaller devices you may just have to buy a whole new system.
Towers do, however, take up … Read more
