Journal 1
Jan. 2nd This is the first day of the class, web technology & network management. My professor is Dr.Ebrahimi, and he is a very kind man. First we briefly studied the requirements for this course: Collaboration, Team work, Class work and Journal. Definitions: *History of "www": world wide web, the complete set of documents residing on all Internet servers that use the HTTP protocol, accessible to users via a simple point-and-click system. It was developed at the European Organization for Nuclear Research in Geneva from a proposal by Tim Berners-Lee in1989. Html stands for Hyper Text Markup Language that is the document format used on the web. algorithms are problem solving steps that are needed to find a solution to a problem such as the shortest pash from one city to another or computering employee wage.We also learned how to evaluate an algorithm :time ,space .and cost. Home work & Assignment: A. use a front page to type about myself,and save the file B.make a yahoo account![]()

What should we put in our web sites? 1. Journal of the day ( 80% material covered in class ) 2. Assignments, ( projects and researches ) There is a quiz, a midterm and a final exam during the section. Research: *What is Nanotechnology? A branch of science and engineering devoted to the design and production of extremely small electronic devices and circuits built from individual atoms and molecules. Project: * Redesign the following web sites: 1- www.computerhumanerror.org organization2- www.dalalmolk.com real estate agent3- www.drebrahimi.com Dr. Ebrahimi web site4- www.programmingeasyways.com Dr. Ebrahimi web site5- www.pejohesh.com International youth organization6- www.herbriver.com Selling herbs7- www.webvpcl.com to be built
Network Management Project*: What are the component of Network and what manager should know 1- How the role of the manager should be addressed? 2- what is a view source and technology?
Notes: *The bit is the smallest element of computer storage. It is a positive or negative magnetic spot on the disk and tape and charged cells in memory. Byte (Binary Table): The common unit of computer storage from desktop computer to mainframe. It is made up of eight binary digits (bits). A ninth bit may be used in the memory circuits as a parity bit for error checking. The term was originally coined to mean the smallest addressable group of bits in a computer, which has not always been eight. 1 megabyte= 1,024 kilobyte 1 gigabyte= 1,024 megabyte *Can computer be in fuzzy state? Yes. Because there is a context, for example, mild, hot, very cold. Fuzzy logic means it has more than two states. Computer is in a binary state because it is easy. There is a current and no current. Can computer be on octal state? Yes, but it is not easy. There is no context in computer. URL does not have a blank in it. *ASCII: (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), generally pronounced [ˈæski], is a character encoding based on the English alphabet. ASCII codes represent text in computers, communications equipment, and other devices that work with text. Most modern character encodings have a historical basis in ASCII. ASCII was first published as a standard in 1967 and was last updated in 1986. It currently defines codes for 33 non-printing, mostly obsolete control characters.------Chapter 1t |

NOTE
In every web page contains a tag HTML and end with HTML
the ten
commandment covers 90% of the HTML the web design
Everyone must create ten files for each and include the previous tag that
you have learn
* you can use anchor to link to another page out of your directory (web site) and also a page under your directory
The administrator does not allow you to save to the C: drive, but you can store to your network drive which is the H: drive where you can access your information anywhere on campus, not off campus
Today in class we covered a few common known but very important topics that we all should know for everyday life about computers. We discussed the importance of saving your files and emailing them to yourself because it can be accessed anywhere, no matter where you are. It also acts as a duplicate just in case the main file on your computer goes missing or your computer stops working, it is still accessible from any other computer with internet access. Another place to save a file in order to access it anywhere is to save it on a flash drive, or a USB storage device. This is a portable device that you can carry around with you with most of the important information. On our campus we are able to only save on the H: drive but once saved, that drive can be accessed anywhere on campus because the campus is on its own network. The network manager only allows the H: drive to be used by us and not the C: drive because they are scared that we save viruses on it. Work for this class should be saved on geocities because it can be accessed anywhere with internet access.
We also learned what the ACM stands for and that is association for computing machinery and they gives direction to the computing field. We also learned a little about the ASCII code and we learned that letter "A" has a code of 65 and letter "a" has a code of 97. We briefly spoke about what nanotechnology is and we know that nano is 1 billionth of measurement
today is my birthday,I'm 22 years old now.

on internet, not everything is true, you need to research it to see if it is correct such as wikipedia
PROGRAMMING ERRORS and their cost Y2k, space shuttle, prescription drugs, hospital
Nano-technology impact on business future growth or declined and research cost by US gov. and others such as European, Japanese, Chinese
working with host and front page Obstacle Technology changes rapidly but the tools are very the same (good or bad)
2) Every software has an error: Evaluating the web pages of different colleges and university.
3) new topic what is programming
4)) Learning on line
5) building your web
6) accessed wikipedia to learn about history of and how anyone can edit its word meanings, can't entirely trust it
FIRST QUIZ WILL BE ON FRIDAY, EACH STUDENT MAKE UP 10 QUESTIONS EACH TO BE ON TEST.... 100 TRUE/ FALSE QUESTIONS ON COMPUTER, OPEN NOTES, OPEN INTERNET ACCESS, BUT NO COMMUNICATION. PLEASE SUBMIT BY EMAIL TO PROFESSOR ON THURSDAY BY 12:00PM TO PROFESSOR EBRAHIMIDR@GMAIL.COM. QUESTIONS SHOULD COVER 8 DAYS WORTH OF MATERIAL FROM JOURNAL ENTRIES AND TEXTBOOK. 8 FROM THE CLASS, 2 GENERAL KNOWLEDGE.
FOR INSTANCE THE CAPITAL LETTER OF A IS 32? T/F
ASCII CODE IS WAS AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN PEOPLE TO BE CARRIED ON BY EVERYONE
*ASCII:
(American Standard Code for Information Interchange), generally pronounced [ˈæski], is a character encoding based on the English alphabet. ASCII codes represent text in computers, communications equipment, and other devices that work with text. Most modern character encodings have a historical basis in ASCII. ASCII was first published as a standard in 1967 and was last updated in 1986. It currently defines codes for 33 non-printing, mostly obsolete control characters.What does Wiki the root mean? It is a Hawaiian word for quick ,it not a trustable web.

Today is it is not necessary to use light bulbs or vacuum tubes to represent the states of on/off. Other means such as electrical currents or magnetic fields are commonly used to represent these two states which we call binary states. You may be wondering why there are two states rather than 3 or more? One answer would be that it is easier to manipulate and work with binary representation. If it were not in the state of one then it would be in the state of zero, you may then ask why only use zeros and ones instead of other numbers such as 1, 2, or 3. While you can represent characters that way to but using zeros and ones make it easier. Some other possible binary state representations can be that if there is a current or not, magnet or no magnet, light or no light, hole or no hole. Perhaps future computers can use biological entities such as a cell's DNA sequence or binary state representation. As switches have on/off states, the cell can also have 2 active and inactive states under certain circumstances. Imagine millions of microscopic spots (binary states) on a piece of board that could be grouped to form characters, words, and sentences, which thus comprise information. P. 4 in text. How do you represent number 2 in the binary system. (We are working with decimal system (0...9) in our daily life) How do you represent number 10 in decimal system? Ebrahimi believes we are working with decimal system because we have 10 fingers, if we had 16 fingers we would be working with the hexi system, or if we had fists we would use binary system. bi - 2 octi - 8 deci - 10 hexi - 16 According to our classmates, letters don't represent each letter like English language, its the way it sounds it forms symbols such as Al i. How much is 1 + 9 = 10 How do you represent it? We don't have representation from 1 + 9 in our decimal system, as a result we represent it with a zero with an indicator that we have gone through the system once and call it "carry over" + 5 if you know the answer How much is 9 + 1 in decimal system? Last digit 9 How much is 1 + 1 = in binary system? Last digit 1 How much is 1 + 7 = in octal system? Last digit 7 How much is 1 + f in hexa system? Last digit f Today we learned the science of color R G B how many colors would you have from 000000 to ffffff each symbol has 16 variation and think of 16*16*16*16*16*16
Everywhere, except for computer-related operations, the main system of mathematical notation today is the decimal system, which is a base-10 system. As in other number systems, the position of a symbol in a base-10 number denotes the value of that symbol in terms of exponential values of the base. That is, in the decimal system, the quantity represented by any of the ten symbols used - 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 - depends on its position in the number.
Unlike the decimal system, only two digits - 0, 1 - suffice to represent a number in the binary system. The binary system plays a crucial role in computer science and technology. The first 20 numbers in the binary notation are 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, 1010, 1011, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111, 10000, 10001, 10010, 10011, 10100, the origin of which may be better understood if they are re-written in the following way:
1:
00001 11: 01011
2: 00010 12: 01100
3: 00011 13: 01101
4: 00100 14: 01110
5: 00101 15: 01111
6: 00110 16: 10000
7: 00111 17: 10001
8: 01000 18: 10010
9: 01001 19: 10011
10: 01010 20: 10100
Any decimal number can be converted into the binary system by summing the appropriate multiples of the different powers of two. For example, starting from the right, 10101101 represents (1 x 20) + (0 x 21) + (1 x 22) + (1 x 23) + (0 x 24) + (1 x 25) + (0 x 26) + (1 x 27) = 173. This example can be used for the conversion of binary numbers into decimal numbers.
For the conversion of decimal
numbers to binary numbers, the same principle can be used, but the other way
around. Thus, to convert, first find the highest power of two that does not
exceed the given number, and place a 1 in the corresponding position in the
binary number. For example, the highest power of two in the decimal number 519
is 29 = 512. Thus, a 1 can be inserted as the 10th digit, counted from the
right: 1000000000.

Journal 7
Jan 9th
HTML stands for Hyper-Text Markup Language and it consists of numerous tags that are used to format a web page. Although it is called a language, the fact is that it is a marking (tagging) of the text that has an effect when the file is viewed in a browser, where the impact of those tags is shown. An HTML file consists of several tags inserted into a text. The HTML tags are activated when viewed with the browser. The HTML tags are enclosed in < > (angled brackets) indicating the start of the tag; a tag preceded by a / (slash) indicates the end of the effect of the tag. Although there are more than a hundred HTML tags, I recommend that you learn the ten most important HTML tags that are needed to make a web page. The simplest way to create a web page is to start with <HTML> and type whatever you want o the page and end it here </HTML>. Make sure you save the file with the extension .html.
Ten commandment of the book covers 90% of the HTML web design.
5) Diagnostics Network problem H: drive, troubleshooting, error, bug, debug (Grace Hopper)
6) quiz.htm
T/F 1) HTML stands for hyphen make up language <br>
T/F 2) FFFFFF represents color black <br>
T/F 3) By mixing colors red, green and blue you can make almost infinite color <br>
7) Network server and client
a) Where is the server of these machines
b) What should a server have - criteria
8) Research online learning is tradition learning, rewrite the abstract from computerhumanerror.org
9) Search engine - How does it work, find what you are looking for?
A space is used by programmers as a delimiter or a separator
