Which is first science or technology?

Science comes first than technology. Technology is defined as the APPLICATION OF SCIENCE. First basic rules and methods are developed using science and then the they are applied to develop a technology. Example: Steam engines are the result of force provided by steam which is discovered by science.


Who first invented techonology?

Tough question. Technology can be defined as applied science, so the real question is, "when was the first scientific research and experimentation done?" For recorded history I don't know. But I am sure that early man was inadvertently doing science and technology just to improve his survival rate.


What is the process of creating technology?

To discuss we have to define 'technology'. I think technology is today defined by the term 'electron' and anything that uses the hardware of a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (silicon wafer) or computer chips. Therein also lies one answer. The silicon industry. However, advances in technology using light such fibre optics, etc. can also be classified as technology. So it is not just Si per se. There are multiple things contributing to technology. Technology is not a singular oriented term. The process of creating those things is the process of creating technology. Its like when you have multiple programs in an operating system contributing to the function of the entire software package when it is not actually a singular thing.


What is the user defined object?

A user-defined object is an instance of a user-defined type, typically a class, or an enum.


What does 45nm technology node mean?

45nm technology refers to size of the transistors in a chip. A technology node is defined as the ground rules of a process governed by the smallest feature printed in a repetitive array. The half-pitch of first-level interconnect dense lines is most representative of the DRAM technology level required for the smallest economical chip size . This is currently chosen as the dimension that defines a technology node. It is, however, anticipated that in the future, the half-pitch dimensions of either metal or polysilicon interconnections of microprocessors (MPUs) and ASIC devices may rival or even become smaller than the corresponding half-pitch of DRAM. The half-pitch dimension however, may not represent the smaller feature of the chip. For instance, for logic devices, such as MPUs, physical bottom gate length represents the smallest feature. Nevertheless, the technology node definition remains tight to the half-pitch indicator as defined above. see this ref. for more http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel5/101/21453/00994854.pdf?arnumber=994854
