Creating Hyperlinks
To insert the button I clicked on insert-interactive images-flash button when the options screen came up I entered information such as; style, background color, button text, font, link, target screen and then name of the button. I then clicked OK. Creating Hyperlinks To link between pages I needed to create hyperlinks, to do this I first wrote the text that I wished the hyperlink to display I then highlighted it and entered the link into the box that appeared I then pressed enter Entering text To enter the text on my site I simply clicked where I wanted it to go and typed it in, I also changed the properties of the text i.e. alignment, color, size, bold, format, etc by highlighting the text and using the toolbar. Accuracy To check the accuracy of my work, e.g. all of my links worked and that there were no spelling errors in the pages I got my friend to read through the page for spelling errors and dead links. Here is a spelling error that was found. and here is the correction Back-up saving To ensure that I dint lose any work if the computer crashed I regularly saved my work, I did this by clicking on the file menu and then "save all frames" or "save" button depending on which file page I was working on. I have provided screenshots below of the buttons I used. I also saved it onto a cd incase the computer was damaged and the work was lost. Spelling and
The Information Technology sector
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SECTOR OVERVIEW As of 31 January 2004, the Information Technology sector comprised 18.54 percent of the S&P 500. The sector in our portfolio is comparatively underweighted, then, accounting for only 17.1 percent. This particular sector is divided into 3 sectors: Software and Services, Technology and Hardware Equipment, and Semiconductors and Semiconductor Equipment. The three largest companies in the Software and Services Industry are Microsoft ($298.3 billion market cap), Oracle ($72.5 billion), and SAP AG ($51.7 billion). These are by far the largest companies within this industry, since the next largest by market cap is only $15.2 billion. The Technology and Hardware Equipment sector is similarly top heavy with International Business Machines ($167.4 billion) being the largest. In addition, Cisco Systems, Inc. ($159.4 billion), Nokia Corporation ($104.5 billion), and Dell Corp. ($87.1 billion) are major companies in this industry. The Semiconductors and Semiconductor Equipment industry is led by Intel ($196 billion) and followed by several companies bunched together in a range from approximately $20 billion to $50 billion in market cap. Among these leaders are Texas Instruments ($53 billion) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (42.1 billion). Because of the great potential in each of these industries, we will further examine each of them in our
20 years of the P. C. : Has software been held back by hardware limitations, or have hardware developments been held back by shortcomings in software??”
Peter Patterson Co314 21/11/2000 "20 years of the P. C. : Has software been held back by hardware limitations, or have hardware developments been held back by shortcomings in software??" Within twenty years the Personal Computer has developed at an astonishing rate. Both hardware and software have progressed beyond the expectation from twenty years ago. The two classes are so dependent on each other, as one can not function without the other, that developments in one have affected and forced developments in the other. Though if two classes are so dependent on each other then for one to improve in design, development and function then the other must follow. This unfortunately means that if one is going slower in development then it will hold the other one back as a consequence. From 1980 the first P. C. was properly marketed by Seattle Computer Products. In 1981 the first IBM PC was on sale to companies and even the wealthy public. This PC had 32 Kila Bytes of RAM , which compared to the average 128 Mega Bytes of RAM in today's PC's, indicates how small the hardware development was at in the early 80's. The software built for this was extremely basic, using DOS version 1.0, but only as an option. The software was not the main selling point of the PC. It was marketed for its hardware, i.e. this was a revolutionary machine that could save large quantities of data files on
Categories of software.
Categories of Software Project To: Williams and Smith Accounting Services From: Adam Ashton Date: Friday, 06 January 2006 Re: Categories of Software Introduction In this report I will explain the different types of software that are available, show what their purpose is and their advantages and disadvantages. Hardware and Software Before I start, I will explain the difference between software and hardware as many people mix up these terms. Hardware refers to the parts of a computing system that you can actually touch or see. This means things like the monitor, the keyboard and mouse etc. The computer circuit boards, the printer and all the disc drives are part of the hardware of the system. All these are the things that are manufactured and assembled in a factory. The software of the system means the program's which have to be written by a computer programmer. These things may well be stored inside the computer, perhaps in magnetic form on a hard disc. You cannot actually see the software; it is stored in coded form, as a series of '1's and '0's which only the computer can understand. Systems and Application Software Software can be separated into two different types of software, Systems software and Applications software. Systems software is a special type of software that helps the computer function or enable the computer and
software development
Software Development Introduction: A software development is a set of activities that results in software products. Software development may include new development, modification, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products. A description of the planned tasks and activities to be used by the developer to implement the required development programme. This description includes organizational responsibilities, resources, methods, depth of effort, and combination with other programme engineering and management activities and related systems. Methods: * Prototypes: prototyping is the framework of activities during software development of creating prototypes. Basic principles of prototyping are: * Complete development methodology, but rather an approach to handling selected portions of a larger, more traditional development methodology (i.e. Spiral or Rapid Application Development (RAD)). * Attempts to reduce project risk by breaking a project into smaller segments and providing more ease-of-change during the development process. * While most prototypes are developed with the expectation that they will be discarded, it is possible in some cases to evolve from prototype to working system. * A basic understanding of the fundamental business problem is necessary to avoid solving the wrong problem. * Agile: Agile software

Current skills How the user skills affect design Training required .Mr Bradshaw Add new data- such as entering new customers, new DVDs and new rentals Editing data - Changing current data in the system Deleting data - deleting information on existing customers, DVDs or rentals. Will also delete entire forms. very little computer skills, but Mr. Bradshaw emphasises that he is more than willing to learn how to use the system as the user has minimal knowledge of using an ict system the solutions design will have to be very user friendly. This design will have to be clear with a consistent style and layout. Buttons will need to be generic throughout the database. The user guide will need to be very detailed covering all aspects of the database in easy to understand language, not using difficult terminology.

Database Design
AVCE ICT UNIT 6 Database Design HMV I have chosen to design a new database system for HMV for this assignment so that they will be able to store information about their customers, suppliers, employees, order details, different products and shippers. HMV is the UK and Ireland's leading specialist retailer of Music, DVD/Video, computer games and related products. The company operates around 200 stores in key shopping locations nationwide, covering up to over 1million sq. ft. of trading space, as well as having a successful online store at www.hmv.co.uk. HMV's very first store was officially opened in July 1921 by the celebrated British composer, Sir Edward Elgar on London's Oxford Street. Since that time, the company have become better and more popular with the public. HMV is dedicated to offering its customers access to the widest possible range of recorded music titles, DVD's and computer games across all formats. Current problem with the company The main problem with the company currently is that most of their business is done by paperwork. This can lead to the staffs becoming very busy and not having time to do other work. It is also space consuming because the company will have to buy files and filing cabinets which may get full quickly and they may have to pay more in order to get extra space for the files and records. Other then these two problems because of
Human Computer Interaction
Computer Interaction * Describe the key features of event driven programme: In computer programming, event driven program is a programming paradigm in which the flow of the programme is determined by a user actions (mouse clicks and key presses) or messages from other programs or objects. Event Driven Programs include Word processing, Database and other packages for drawing. This programs used with GUI operating systems. Key Features of Event Driven Program - Event Driven Programs have Event handlers, (user enter the code to run the event). - Event loops in event driven programs, keep checking if event happens. - Forms hold many objects that are used for events. - Trigger functions decides which codes can be used when an event happens. Event Handlers Most programming frameworks take care of their implementation and expect the user to put only the codes that run an event. Some advance programs have forms that contain controls and that determine when the programme or event runs. Controls hold label, buttons, check box, lists box etc. Some programs such as Visual basis holds toolbox that contains some objects and these could be used to forms. Many objects have events that include clicks, double click. Different object have different events. Event loops Event loops keep checking the user interface whether anything had happened such as typing into a textbox. The event
STELLA Science Simulation Software.
Simulations can be considered a variant of cognitive tools, for example they allow students to test hypothesis and more generally "what-if" scenarios. In addition, they can enable learners to ground cognitive understanding of their action in a situation. Simulation is a powerful tool for analyzing, designing, and operating complex systems. It enables you to test hypotheses without having to carry them out, saving you thousands, even hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is a cost-effective means of exploring new processes, without having to resort to pilot programs. Simulation provides a method for checking your understanding of the world around you and helps you produce better results faster. And it is an efficient communication tool, showing how an operation works while stimulating creative thinking about how it can be improved. Simulation is used in many contexts, such as simulation of technology for performance optimization, safety engineering, testing, training, education, and video games. Training simulators include flight simulators for training aircraft pilots to provide them with a lifelike experience. Simulation is also used with scientific modelling of natural systems or human systems to gain insight into their functioning. Simulation can be used to show the eventual real effects of alternative conditions and courses of action. Simulation is also used when the real
