The rapid development of software and computer tools has generated new teaching and learning spaces (Gamage, Tretiakov, & Crump, 2011).
Back in the early 1970s, the first BI companies, such as Cognos, pioneered the design of software and computer tools able to transform raw business operations data into analyzable information -- information that BI analysts could then use to answer companies' business-related questions.
Written by an expert in software security and computer tools, Encrypted Email: The History and Technology of Message Privacy is designed for researchers and professionals working in email security and encryption.
But nanotechnology did not catch the fancy of investors until the 1990's, when ingenious new software and computer-controlled tools expanded the possibilities for manipulating small-scale processes, designing new materials and accurately measuring their performance.
Both Lewin-Jones and Herter agree that the choice of practical and accessible computer tools and software, such as text-to-speech programs, is transforming language teaching for visually impaired learners, but the basis for successful teaching remains the same: listen to your student.
In 2011, Apple's virtual assistant Siri showed how software and computers could be more than just tools—something closer to collaborators.
Computational Astrophysics and Cosmology (CompAC) publishes papers on computer-supported modeling, computation-intensive data analysis, computer tools, software and algorithm design.
Through these projects students explore both (i) principles of operation (mechanical, stepper motors and servos, electrical control, computer software), and (ii) computer algorithms (trajectory, tool path, design).
The teams are hoping for new discoveries, but they've also been selected because of promises to provide baseline information for future observers and computer software tools that those astronomers will need to make sense of their observations on the telescope.
Apart from the pullback in consumer spending, nothing is more damaging to the economy than the freeze that many executives say has descended on investment in new equipment, computers, software and other tools of production.
We indicate a knowledge of English, Spanish, standard computer tools, and real estate software packages.
