Virus & Social network
VIRUS
A
virus is a small infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells
of other organisms.
Viruses can infect all types of life forms,
from animals
and plants
to microorganisms,
including bacteria
and archaea.
Since
Ivanov sky’s 1892 article describing a non-bacterial pathogen
infecting tobacco plants, and the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, about 5,000 virus species
have been described in detail, although there are millions of types. Viruses
are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth and are the most abundant type of
biological entity. The study of viruses is known as virology,
a sub-specialty of microbiology.
While
not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses
exist in the form of independent particles. These viral particles, also
known as virions, consist of two or three parts: (i) the genetic
material made from either DNA or RNA,
long molecules
that carry genetic information; (ii) a protein
coat, called the capsid,
which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an envelope
of lipids
that surrounds the protein coat when they are outside a cell. The shapes of
these virus particles range from simple helical and icosahedral
forms for some virus species to more complex structures for others. Most virus
species have virions that are too small to be seen with an optical microscope. The average virion is about
one one-hundredth the size of the average bacterium.
The
origins of viruses in the evolutionary history of life are unclear:
some may have evolved from plasmids pieces of DNA that can move between cells while
others may have evolved from bacteria. In evolution, viruses are an important
means of horizontal gene transfer, which increases genetic diversity.[7]
Viruses are considered by some to be a life form, because they carry genetic
material, reproduce, and evolve through natural
selection. However they lack key characteristics (such as cell
structure) that are generally considered necessary to count as life. Because
they possess some but not all such qualities, viruses have been described as
"organisms at the edge of life", and as replicators.
Viruses
spread in many ways; viruses in plants are often transmitted from plant to
plant by insects
that feed on plant sap,
such as aphids;
viruses in animals can be carried by blood-sucking
insects. These disease-bearing
organisms are known as vectors. Influenza
viruses are spread by coughing and sneezing. Norovirus
and rotavirus,
common causes of viral gastroenteritis, are transmitted by the faecal–oral route and are passed from person to
person by contact, entering the body in food or water. HIV is one of several
viruses transmitted through sexual contact and by exposure to infected
blood. The range of host cells that a virus can infect is called its "host range".
This can be narrow, meaning a virus is capable of infecting few species, or
broad, meaning it is capable of infecting many.
Viral
infections in animals provoke an immune
response that usually eliminates the infecting virus. Immune
responses can also be produced by vaccines,
which confer an artificially acquired immunity to the specific
viral infection. However, some viruses including those that cause AIDS and viral
hepatitis evade these immune responses and result in chronic infections. Antibiotics
have no effect on viruses, but several antiviral
drugs have been developed.
Blind carbon copy
Blind carbon copy allows the sender of a message to conceal the person
entered in the BCC field from the other recipients. This concept originally
applied to paper correspondence (carbon copy)
and now also applies to e-mails.
In
some circumstances, the typist creating a paper correspondence must ensure that
multiple recipients of such a document do not see the names of other
recipients. To achieve this, the typist can:
Carbon copy
In the past, a carbon copy
was the under-copy of a document created when carbon paper
was placed between the original and the under-copy during the production of a
document. With the advent of email, the abbreviations cc or bcc (blind carbon
copy) have also come to refer to sending copies of an electronic message to
recipients other than the addressee.
Nowadays "carbon copy"
is often used metaphorically to refer simply to an exact copy. It is not to be
confused with the carbon print family of photographic
reproduction processes.
Social network
A social network is a social
structure made up of a set of social
actors (such as individuals or organizations), sets of dyadic ties, and other social
interactions between actors. The social network perspective provides
a set of methods for analyzing the structure of whole social entities as well
as a variety of theories explaining the patterns observed in these structures.
The study of these structures uses social network analysis to identify local
and global patterns, locate influential entities, and examine network dynamics.
Social networks and the analysis
of them is an inherently interdisciplinary academic field which emerged
from social psychology, sociology,
statistics,
and graph theory.
Georg Simmel
authored early structural theories in sociology emphasizing the dynamics of
triads and "web of group affiliations". Jacob Moreno
is credited with developing the first sociograms
in the 1930s to study interpersonal relationships. These approaches were
mathematically formalized in the 1950s and theories and methods of social
networks became pervasive in the social and behavioral sciences by the 1980s. Social network analysis is now one of the
major paradigms in contemporary sociology, and is also employed in a number of
other social and formal sciences. Together with other complex
networks, it forms part of the nascent field of network
science.
Facebook
Facebook
is an American for-profit corporation and online social media
and social networking service based in Menlo Park, California. The Facebook
website was launched on February 4, 2004, by Mark
Zuckerberg, along with fellow Harvard
College students and roommates, Eduardo Saverin,
Andrew
McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes.
The
founders had initially limited the website's membership to Harvard students;
however, later they expanded it to higher
education institutions in the Boston area, the Ivy League
schools, and Stanford University. Facebook gradually added
support for students at various other universities, and eventually to high
school students as well. Since 2006, anyone age 13 and older has been allowed
to become a registered user of Facebook, though variations exist in the minimum
age requirement, depending on applicable local laws. The Facebook name comes
from the face book
directories often given to United States university students.
Facebook
may be accessed by a large range of desktops,
laptops,
tablet
computers, and smartphones over the Internet
and mobile networks. After registering to use the
site, users can create a user profile indicating their name, occupation,
schools attended and so on. Users can add other users as "friends",
exchange messages, post status updates and digital
photos, share digital videos and links, use various software applications ("apps"),
and receive notifications when others update their profiles or make posts.
Additionally, users may join common-interest user groups organized by
workplace, school, hobbies or other topics, and categorize their friends into
lists such as "People from Work" or "Close Friends". In
groups, editors can pin posts to top. Additionally, users can complain about or
block unpleasant people. Because of the large volume of data that users submit
to the service, Facebook has come under scrutiny for its privacy policies.
Facebook makes most of its revenue from advertisements
which appear onscreen.
Facebook,
Inc. held its initial public offering (IPO) in February
2012, and began selling stock to the public three months later, reaching an original
peak market capitalization of $104 billion. On
July 13, 2015, Facebook became the fastest company in the Standard
& Poor's 500 Index to reach a market cap of $250 billion.
Facebook has more than 1.86 billion
monthly active users as of December 31, 2016. As of April 2016,
Facebook was the most popular social networking site in the world, based on the
number of active user accounts. Facebook classifies users from the ages of 13
to 18 as minors and therefore sets their profiles to share content with friends
only.
YouTube
YouTube
is an American video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California. The service was
created by three former PayPal employees Chad Hurley,
Steve Chen,
and Jawed Karim
in February 2005. Google
bought the site in November 2006 for US$1.65 billion; YouTube now operates as
one of Google's subsidiaries. The site allows users to upload, view, rate,
share, add to favorites, report and comment on videos, subscribe to other
users, and it makes use of WebM, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, and Adobe
Flash Video
technology to display a wide variety of user-generated and corporate
media videos. Available content includes video clips,
TV show
clips, music videos,
short
and documentary films, audio recordings, movie trailers and other content such as video
blogging, short original videos, and educational videos.
Most
of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals, but media
corporations including CBS,
the BBC,
Vevo, and Hulu offer some of their
material via YouTube as part of the YouTube partnership program. Unregistered
users can only watch videos on the site, while registered users are permitted
to upload an unlimited number of videos and add comments to videos. Videos
deemed potentially offensive are available only to registered users affirming
themselves to be at least 18 years old. In December 2016, the website was
ranked as the second most popular site by Alexa
Internet, a web traffic analysis company.
YouTube
earns advertising revenue from Google AdSense,
a program which targets ads according to site content and audience. The vast
majority of its videos are free to view, but there are exceptions, including
subscription-based premium channels, film rentals, as well as YouTube Red,
a subscription service offering ad-free access to the website and access to
exclusive content made in partnership with existing users.

HISTORY OF COMPUTER
History of
Computers
The
first computers were people! That is, electronic computers (and the earlier
mechanical computers) were given this name because they performed the work that
had previously been assigned to people. "Computer" was originally a
job title: it was used to describe those human beings (predominantly women)
whose job it was to perform the repetitive calculations required to compute
such things as navigational tables, tide charts, and planetary positions for
astronomical almanacs. Imagine you had a job where hour after hour, day after
day, you were to do nothing but compute multiplications. Boredom would quickly
set in, leading to carelessness, leading to mistakes. And even on your best
days you wouldn't be producing answers very fast. Therefore, inventors have
been searching for hundreds of years for a way to mechanize (that is, find a
mechanism that can perform) this task.
The
abacus was an early aid for mathematical computations. Its only
value is that it aids the memory of the human performing the calculation. A
skilled abacus operator can work on addition and subtraction problems at the
speed of a person equipped with a hand calculator (multiplication and division
are slower). The abacus is often wrongly attributed to China. In fact, the
oldest surviving abacus was used in 300 B.C. by the Babylonians. The abacus is
still in use today, principally in the far east. A modern abacus consists of
rings that slide over rods, but the older one pictured below dates from the
time when pebbles were used for counting (the word "calculus" comes
from the Latin word for pebble).
In
1617 an eccentric (some say mad) Scotsman named John Napier invented logarithms,
which are a technology that allows multiplication to be performed via addition.
The magic ingredient is the logarithm of each operand, which was originally
obtained from a printed table. But Napier also invented an alternative to
tables, where the logarithm values were carved on ivory sticks which are now
called Napier's Bones.
Napier's
invention led directly to the slide rule, first built in England
in 1632 and still in use in the 1960's by the NASA engineers of the Mercury, Gemini,
and Apollo programs which landed men on the moon.
Leonardo
da Vinci (1452-1519) made drawings of gear-driven calculating machines but
apparently never built any.
The
first gear-driven calculating machine to actually be built was probably the calculating
clock, so named by its inventor, the German professor Wilhelm Schickard
in 1623. This device got little publicity because Schickard died soon afterward
in the bubonic plague.
In
1642 Blaise Pascal, at age 19, invented the Pascaline as an aid
for his father who was a tax collector. Pascal built 50 of this gear-driven
one-function calculator (it could only add) but couldn't sell many because of
their exorbitant cost and because they really weren't that accurate (at that
time it was not possible to fabricate gears with the required precision). Up
until the present age when car dashboards went digital, the odometer portion of
a car's speedometer used the very same mechanism as the Pascaline to increment
the next wheel after each full revolution of the prior wheel. Pascal was a
child prodigy. At the age of 12, he was discovered doing his version of
Euclid's thirty-second proposition on the kitchen floor. Pascal went on to
invent probability theory, the hydraulic press, and the syringe. Shown below is
an 8 digit version of the Pascaline, and two views of a 6 digit version:
