Distributed Computing
Our website focuses on how distributed computing helps with research in scientific and technical fields. Its inexpensive cost and computing power is drawn from thousands of users across the Internet.
It also looks at computer networks, distributed computing on a smaller scale, and how the real world uses them, from service delivery networks to library terminals.
Inside Computers: An in-depth Guide
"Inside Computers" is an online help guide for computer technology; in-depth articles that explain complex technologies in easy to understand language. This site is indepth enough for a good
understanding of all aspects of computers, but not too complicated to make it confusing or too hard to comprehend.
Personal Computers: Inside and Out
This site is designed to help students learn about personal computers: how they work, their various parts, and their history. The computer's functions, a vocabulary of terms, operating systems,
hardware, a historical time line, and a bibliography page all help users obtain a better understanding of this subject. An image map will also help students understand the inner workings of a
computer. Different types of computer viruses are also discussed.
Computer Hardware for Beginners
Our page intended to teach others who do know a little about computers to do minor upgrades and repairs, and also explained how some of the computer hardware works.
Computers: the Past, Present and Future
The website we created aims to teach anyone, whether a beginner or and advanced user, about computers. The site focuses on how computers work, but also deals with the history and the future of
computers. Our team interviewed a variety of influential people about their views on computers. Included in this list is Esther Dyson, a key computer visionary, and Tad Williams, a bestselling author
known for his fantasy and science fiction novels. We also included a number of java applets that aim to teach the user through interaction. Our objective for the site was to take each visitor into
parts of the computer that they had never seen or understood. Few people know about a BIOS or DMA channels, but our site aims to take these and other parts and explain their function without
overwhelming the visitor. At the same time we teach the user how these parts were developed, and how things will change in the future. This site allows anyone to understand all the essentials of
their computer, but the site goes beyond that by explaining why things are the way they are.
Microprocessor Architecture
When we started creating this web page, we worked to creat a page that would explain what goes on INSIDE a computer when you play a game or use a word processor, and to teach people about
microprocessor archetecture. Incuded in our site is information about CISC, RISC, and new EPIC microprocessors. Our site explains the differences between each archetecture and tells you why it was
made that way. It also exlains "Pipe Lining" and "Bypassing", giving you the advantages and limitations they have. Microprocessor architecture is a very hard subject to make a web page on, in my
opinion. If it was hard for our teacher to teach the informations that needs to be in our page, we knew it would be a lot harder for us to explain it to others. We've done the best we can in the
time allowed, working many many hours to complete it. We explained as best we could of what we knew.
Sil-ution : the Microchip
This site acts as a primer to those who wish to know about microchips. It contains information about the making, functions and uses of microchips and contains many detailed descriptions of the above.
The Green Board
Our Web page Is designed to Show people how to perform some Simple computer system Upgrades for the IBM PC Compatible. It Educationl quality can be used in the Class room to help describe the
internal components of a computer.
The World of Computers
To show the importance of technological advances in our use of the computer today.
