4 Alternative Input Devices Scanner Mouse Digital Camera Biometric Device Digital Camcorder Writing Tablet Scientific Probe Webcam Smart Phone

5 5 Business Technology Applications What are computer networks? Computer networks are computers linked in a school or business so users can share hardware, software, and data. Hickory Ridge is part of the CCS LAN (Local Access Network) network. We have over 300 computers that are run through the common network. Networking allows students to access previously saved information anywhere in the building or at other schools in the system.

6 6 Internet Public network used most often for:  Emailing  Accessing the World Wide Web (WWW) Intranet Private network primarily used to share:information WITHIN a business Only members or employees can utilize Effective tool for sharing information, saving time & money Examples of Computer Networks

7 Applications of Technology by Businesses 7 What is artificial intelligence (AI)? software that enables computers to reason learn and make decisions. Example: voice recognition software Why is Computer- aided design (CAD) used? used to create product styles and designs. Examples:  Design for a camera  Drawings for homes, buildings, equipment  Electronic prototypes video link- robot

8 8 Computer Assisted Design Example

9 Computer Assisted Design Video Clip 9 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bgmP yr5Obc&safety_mode=true&persist_safet y_mode=1 Designing a Diamond Ring

10 Business Technology Applications 10 Computer assisted Instruction  Used in education  Help people improve skills at their own pace Telemedicine  Video conferencing from remote areas so patients have access to diagnosis by doctor in another location Public records  Military records  Social security  Medical information  Police records

11 Financial Activities Bill paying online, checking credit report, selling stocks 11

16 Expert Systems 16 How do expert systems help people? Expert systems are computer programs that help people solve technical problems including medical services, financial planning, and legal matters. Examples: -Automotive parts electronic catalogues -Quicken books -Peachtree Accounting

17 Management Information Systems (MIS) 17 An ordered system of processing and reporting information in an organization Management uses information to make business decisions. Four main components of a MIS:  Gathering data  Analyzing data  Storing data  Reporting results http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJYFpwbvuDc&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1

18 MIS Categories of Information 18 Financial  Information for budgets and financial reports and statements Production and inventory  Information for production summaries and supplies Marketing and sales  Information to determine customer needs, economic conditions, and competitors action  http://www.5min.com/Video/How- T-Mobile-Leveraged-Social-Media- for-Google-Phone-Sales-514899158 http://www.5min.com/Video/How- T-Mobile-Leveraged-Social-Media- for-Google-Phone-Sales-514899158 Human resources  Information about employees’ salaries, benefits and evaluations

19 Business Applications of Technology 14 What is robotics ? mechanical devices are programmed to do routine tasks, such as those seen on an assembly line in factories Robots can:  Work underground  Work under water  Work in outer space  Work 24 hours/7days a week  Work in humanly impossible situations video link-Rosie the robot

21 Telecommuting What happens during telecommuting activities? Workers use computers off-site (at home) to do a job, saving travel time and costs. Works well for occupations:  Writers  Editors  Accountants  Computer Programmers  Web designers Workers send reports, documents, & ideas to employers via email, fax, videoconferencing 21 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAJRgNu_O9U&safety_mode=true &persist_safety_mode=1

22 Business Applications Financial activities  Bill pay online  Direct deposit  Electronic Funds Transfer  Selling stocks  Completing tax returns  Checking credit reports Public Records  Military records  Social security  Medical information  Police records Telemedicine  Video conferencing from remote locations so patients have access to diagnosis by doctor in another location  Using robotics for surgical procedures 22

23 Computer Assisted Instruction Advantages  Learner proceeds at own ability level and pace  Learner has necessary tools to learn material  Company/trainer can deliver same training to every user  Offers flexibility in timing and outcomes Disadvantages  Lack of personal contact with a teacher may be detrimental to the student  Learner must be self motivated  Learner must be technology savvy  Learner must have access to computer  Limited professional training given 23

24 24 Concerns of Using Technology Ethics moral guidelines that govern the use of computers and information systems Employment Trends Shift in duties and skills needed in the workplace. Companies retrain displaced workers who are unemployed because of changing job conditions. Computer literacy is vital.  Literacy the ability to enter, store, process, and retrieve information.

25 25 Concerns-Computer Crimes A computer virus is a hidden program code in a system that can do damage to software or stored data.  How many people have encountered a computer virus?  Will someone tell how they removed the virus? Viruses may be programmed to become active :  At a specific date  When certain keystrokes are made  When certain data is accessed

26 Types of Viruses Bomb - Destructive computer code or virus designed to activate at a specific time Hoax - A program intended to scare users into thinking they have a virus Phage - A program that modifies other programs, operating systems, and databases on a Personal Digital Assistant Trojan Horse - A virus disguised as a useful piece of software Virus - A computer program designed to cause damage to computer files Worm Destructive computer program that bores its way through a computer network 26

27 Copyright Protection of intellectual property  Gives owner/creator exclusive rights to reproduce or distribute copies of his/her own work From the US copyright website above:  What are examples of protected property?  Do I have to register with US Copyright office? Go to “is my copyright good in other countries”.  Name three countries that do not recognize US copyrights.  Name three countries with WTO international agreements. For works created after 1-1-78, :  How many years does a copyright last?  Can you renew the copyright? 27 http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/

28 28 Theft Concerns How many people have access to software that has been copied to a CD by a personal contact? Did that person commit an act of piracy? Piracy -stealing or illegally copying software packages or information Copyright infringement - the illegal copying of proprietary (property of another) works

29 White Collar Crimes An illegal act carried out by office or professional workers while at work including: stealing money, information, or computer time through improper use of computer systems.

30 30 Health Concerns of Using Technology Eyestrain and vision problems Muscle tension and nerve damage  Ergonomically poor equipment Carpal tunnel syndrome  A repetitive stress syndrome Lack of physical exercise & obesity

31 Privacy Concerns of Using Technology 31 Dishonest people have access to customer records. Companies have changed which employees as well as other people that may have access to customer records. To protect customers, some companies are:  Increasing database security  Changing access codes multiple times during day  Becoming more strict about who has access  Purchasing tighter security systems Laws are changing but can’t keep up with technology.

32 Identity Theft Thieves:  Obtain information online  Apply for credit cards  Access bank account information Do not give private information out over the internet or phone unless you know the site is secure! http://www.businessinsi der.com/americas-most- wanted-white-collar- criminals-2009- 11#leonard-weston- ramey-12 http://www.businessinsi der.com/americas-most- wanted-white-collar- criminals-2009- 11#leonard-weston- ramey-12 Check out the website and see how many identities this man has had. 32
