Computer Network Installation?
There are three things that your business will need to set up a basic network. You can do this on your own if you want to and you will save a fair bit of money. Any tech support team that you have should be able to handle the work with ease. If you need to have a larger, more complicated network put in place, you may want to contact a company who can come in and make sure that the job gets done right. This is the place to start, however, since you can always expand from here as your business grows.
The first thing that you will need is a server. This is a computer that is specially made to hold a lot of information. It is very powerful. Some servers sit upright like traditional computers, but others slide into racks so that they take up less space. Some of these are very small in physical size, but do not underestimate the amount of information that they can hold. Many businesses will have multiple servers all linked together, but you can start with just one if you do not need to store that much information yet.
The next thing that you will need is a computer console. In essence, this is just a desktop computer with a monitor. It will be very similar to the computers that your employees will use in their offices. This one will be different because it will stay in the server room, though, and it will be used exclusively for working on the servers. This will be the machine that you use to get to all of the information no matter which server it is on. Some of these can mount to the same racks that hold the servers, making for a very compact design.
After you have those two things, you will just need to connect them together with a server console switch. This is a box that can accept many Ethernet inputs from the servers. It will then have a lone output line that will run to the console. This gives the single console access to all the servers at one time. You will not have to unplug it from one and hook it up to the other. You can also expand this outward to allow all of your employees' computers to tap into the network through cables or a wireless router.

What are the advantages of a bar code reader?
Advantages:- Putting magnetic stripes on the cards are not expensive,so the cards are cheap.
Disadvantages:- Magnetic stripes may get damaged or the stripe reader could break down.
Sorry, I couln't think of lots but I got one: It contains up to only a certain amount of letters and words :)
magnetic card readers operate on magnetic strips, which are inherently susceptable to erasure, it doesn't happen often but it does happen, there are more advantages than disadvantages. another disadvantage is that mag card readers take a lot of wear and tear, the read heads must meet the card with direct tension and precision. the read heads are usually impregnated with diamond dust to prevent wear on the heads so they may read millions of swipes without significant wear that would widen the swipe gap, this diamond dust tends to wear the mag stripe out on the card quicker than the head wears away. mag cards have three areas for data to be stored and these areas vary in bits per inch that may be written to the the areas. more precision is required for higher rates of data bpi. rfid is fast replacing magstripe, it has a more robust security protocol, isn't affected by enviroment and is as compact as the magstripe.

How to bypass the computer on a semi truck?
If you want your vehicle to operate properly, you don't. If you bypass or disable the ECM, the motor isn't simply going to revert to functioning like a mechanical motor - many components of an electrical motor are dependent on the ECM in order to properly function. If you want to bypass the speed governor, you need that to be reprogrammed.

Why does a computer use Binary number System?
Binary is the simplest way to represent information. Binary has two states, high and low. It's pretty easy to distinguish between two states. If you tried something more complex, like a trinary (low, middle, and high) you would have two boundaries to worry about, which could be hard to distinguish between. For example, a binary system could define 1 to be (near) 5V and 0 to be (near) 0V. You don't have to distinguish between 2.45 V and 2.55 V, just close to zero or close to 5. Or it could be magentized Left-to-Right or Up-to-down. You don't have to worry about is it 40 degrees or 50 degrees off.
Do computers today still use binary code?
The circuits in a modern computer processor are made up of billions of transistors. A transistor is a tiny switch that is activated by the electronic signals it receives. The digits 1 and 0 used in binary reflect the on and off states of a transistor where 0 can be represented by a low voltage and 1 with a high voltage.

Most data recovery centers use at least a Class 100, or ISO Class 5, clean room for recovery operations. This is the same class of room that is typically used for hard drive manufacturing.
What is the difference between DSS and MIS?
Explain the decision support system concept and how it differ from traditional management information system?
===============================================================
Difference Between DSS and MIS:-
MIS:
1) Management Information system operates on operational efficiency i.e. it concentrates to do the things in right manner.
2) It allows the communication across the managers from different areas in a business organisation.
3)It allows flow of information in both upward and downward direction.
4)MIS is original form of management information.
DSS:
1) Decision support system helps in making effective decisions as it allows to do only right things.
2) It is concerned about leadership and senior management in an organization providing effective judgment support.
3)It flows only in upward direction.
4)DSS is actually advancement of MIS.
