Mobile Operating System (generally known as Mobile OS, mobile software platform or a handheld OS) is software systems that contains programs and also data which controls the system and performance in a handheld electronic product. It provides the same capability to Microsoft windows, Mac pc OS X, and Linux on the desktop computer or laptop but with simpler systems. Commonly, it can be put in on smart phones, Personal Digital Assistances, as well as tablet computers. Below are the typical operating systems used by mobile phones: Android OS made by Google Corporation. It is an open source and Linux-based operating-system and commonly used by a maker of smartphones nowadays including Samsung, HTC, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, LG, Huawei, and many more. The particular variant of this os is the Android 3.2 also known as Honeycomb. BlackBerry OS is a software made by RIM (Research In Motion). It is a closed source and also proprietary so that the vendor doesn’t allow the other developer to get involved in developing the os. For the information, BlackBerry operating system or shortened BB OS is different from the BlackBerry Tablet pc OS for the reason that Blackberry OS was produced exclusively for Blackberry smart phones. The recent variant of this os is going to be OS Blackberry 7. iOS is the operating system| from Apple Inc. which is also a closed source and exclusive. The iOS manufactured by Apple to support only for products produced by Apple e . g . iPhone and iPad. The most up-to-date steady version is the iOS 4.5.3 released in July, 2011.

The world is very much dependent on information technology because this is where businesses can get all of their information to customers or other consumers. Information technology is the study, development, and implementation with support of information systems. Information technology management is another step forward which takes the technology as a corporate resource where a company can organize it into an important tool to get their information to all targets. It can be used to help with business to gain new customers or to keep people abreast of all new things happening in the company.

Businesses who employ it must be in close relations with IT management in order for their businesses can use it to its optimum effectiveness. Topics that need to be understood to make information technology work is strategic planning, financial management, and risk analysis.

With this area of expertise becoming so much more important in this world, people can study this area at length. There are bachelor, masters, and doctorate degrees. There are many colleges who offer these courses. There are even courses online that allow some people with current jobs to take an online course at home. It helps people to accomplish a goal without adjusting their lifestyle too much.

To more closely look at the role of an IT manager, they must know how to plan, design, select, and use the new technologies that are coming out to integrate into the business that is employing them. Therefore, it is the ability of a person to effectively use the systems available to make it work for a business.

There are many resources online to find out more about this topic. There are schools who can help people decide if this is the career path that they would like to take. Businesses can get information on IT consultants who can help improve their businesses with setting up their system, and implementing the most economical system with up-to-date software.

There are journals available on all of the latest topics. They have some of the best people in the field keep other managers informed of new technologies being tested.

There can be specialists in different businesses who need information technology. Technology is advancing in every field, and it may take more expertise to implement information technology in certain fields because each field has its own specified systems.

Information technology management is a necessary field as our society continues to grow. Information technology are a set of technological systems which groups or businesses employ in order to spread the information which they produce or in turn, collect. Businesses may not be information technology businesses and need the assistance of those who are experts in the field to implement it into their business. IT managers are these people, and they can help to study a business and build the network of a business with the most economical and up-to-date systems. To become an IT manager, one can go to college advisors to find out if this is the field for them. There are many programs across the country.

Changing careers can sound scary to some and it can be apathetic to a select few, but with the things happening around the world’s economic system and the increase of new skills needed to a new technological world, then there are things that we need to do to change out careers. In this article that is based on real experience since I am a graphic artist-turned-teacher-turned freelancer, there are many ways to help you get to a better future with this list of ideas that can help you pursue a career that is far different from your craft. 

1. Don’t just dream, wake up and make it real! - 

My brother would often tell me that he “woke up” from his dreams of excellence and all. I often wondered what kind of “waking up” does he mean. Over the course of time, I had an epiphany about it when realizing that the Philippine Graphic Design scene isn’t maturing at the moment, I decided to see what was it like to work aside from being a graphic artist. Ask yourself this question: what do you exactly dream besides a nice job at some business district in your city? Material possesions, riches, happiness or possibly the living life to the full? It’s nice to do what you passionately love to do, but there are some things you can’t have with certain salaries that come from select fields of interest. Ergo; have an outline of what you want to do and have, and make that come to realization.

2. Change isn’t scary to begin with. - 

Like what the media would often tell viewers that change isn’t bad, but rather a friend. Think of the other skills that you have, can they beneift you in the long run? If the new talent can help you more than what 4 years of school can do for you, then make that decision to try it out and see for yourself the results. And from there, you can already rest with your laurels and do things as planned. 

3. Think of the benefits in long and short term periods. -

Ask yourself questions that relate to your new job, ask yourself about the short-time perks and the long-time benefits. Weigh it well and see for yourself if this one new job is better than the other new job you thought of.

With these three ideas and thoughts in mind, your career path will change and it will help you make wiser decisions that will benefit your future. It isn’t purely about looking for a higher salary, but more like finding a new passion that pays off with good benefits.

I was once asked, along with a group of other people, what scientific and social advances would be made in the future.  When pressed about how far into the future, they said a million years.  OK…. so let’s see where the old train of thought goes on this one.  Here’s how I responded:

=====

First off, and no offense intended, you are talking to the wrong people.  You need to talk to philosophers, psychologists, and sociologists.  Not scientists or engineers.

If you must speak to a scientist, try to get a hold of Michio Kaku.  He is brilliant in ways you can only imagine. (Yeah, I think he’s a nifty guy.)

Scientists come in different flavors, each with their own timescale. Biologists typically think in terms of generations and epochs which are much too short to see as far forward as you suggest. Chemists think in terms of 1/2 lifes and decay, on the order of eons, again much too small a time period.  Physicists do think on the order of millions of years, even trillions when talking about the heat death of the known universe, but are mostly concerned with theory and not practical applications.  The translation from theory to practice by engineers, even assuming a few hundred generations of Heinlein-ian or Clark-ian or Asimov-ian problem solvers who always find a solution to the local/tactical problem at hand for that generation, is a long process.  Engineers, of every flavor, tend not to think past the next 100 to 200 years, mostly because they know deep down that another generation of engineers will come along to solve their generations problems just as they are.  From figuring out how to make the cannon hit the other guy’s ship and breaching the fortress walls to putting a man on the moon and beyond, they are all temporary solutions to temporary problems on the scale you suggest.

Assuming that Leonard Susskind’s claims that some form of “multiverse” is unavoidably true, and Professor Hawking has very recently made a similar claim, and that we as a species do not evolve past our infancy of tool-using-makes-us-superior-so-we-can-just-grab-everything-within-sight-or-reach, we will seek to obtain a universal energy source that can be taken for granted from this concept.  Say, figuring out how to create a supermicro black hole that collapses to explode and release energy for use.  The fact that it makes a new universe in its own distinct continuum which has none of the basic time/energy/space rules that our own does is irrelevant, that’s the other guys problem.  And yes, its how our own universe came into being.  We just can’t reach outside of the known universe to prove it yet.  Perhaps we’re trying to solve that problem of how to travel throught the exploding supermassive blackhole to escape the eventual heat death of our own universe and into the next universe, although that is probably on the order of 100 trillion years from now.  Still, with time travel a possibility by then, and who is to say we have any fine control over it or that it involves a physical movement in space/time, we’ll know if its a problem that needs solving and how long it might take to figure things out.  Of course, that is always the big pivot in any future history: can we travel faster than light or not?  It places limits on things if we can’t, and opens up many avenues if we can. 150,000 years to the next galaxy?  Sure, it means that if it takes us 100,000 years to develop the technology, and 150,00 for the trip, by the time you suggest we’ll have been there for 750,000 years.  15 times as long as we have developed here on earth.  Communications might be an issue with that.  Government too.  A feudal system again?  Depends on the technology we have, and if the corporations allow governments to continue that far out.

Sociologically … will be become a single group mind by then?  Slaves to the bees and spiders that evolved faster than we did?  Will we understand the concept of “God” by then?  With the vastness of the universe, will we have a need to allow death to continue?  Death as the cessation of thought by a particular being, that is.  Crime and punishment take on whole new meanings in that context — if everyone is immortal, joined in a group mind at some level, and there is plentiful energy and therefore food, what would constitute a crime?  The most important issue if these other problems are solved becomes: why do we carry on moving forward?  To shepard other younger races?  To understand the rest of the universe?  To create new universes as a race of gods?  To procreate and fill all worlds with our kind?  Commerce?  And how do we communicate between worlds?  Even if all worlds only have humans on them, language variations exist that change in a matter of a single generation within the same root language and eventually lead to whole new languages.  The romance languages, for example,all started out as latin.  Which started out as something else entirely which we’ve forgotten in the distant past (a mere 15000 years).  Is earth a myth by one million AD?  Could anyone trace back to the homeworld over that amount of time?

Biology of the human race … well, we will probably still be made of matter.  No offense to J Michael Straczynski’s Babylon-5 rangers as beings of energy in the year 1,000,000 intended.  Skeletal structure might be reasonably similar; that is, bipeds with a single brain who ingest nutrients to maintain our life support functions and have multiple sensory organs to experience the world around us.  A single efficient heart/lung organ, a single efficient digestive organ instead of separate intestines, stomach, pancreas, etc.  Loss of body hair, lengthening of fingers, minimal or lack of waste disposal because we efficiently recycle and reuse everything internally.  Sexual pheromone organs to attract mates possibly.  Telepathy, telekinesis, on both large and small scales, certainly.  Empaths, likely, but that gets back to the science of sociology and the group mind theory.  We may all have implants by then, nanotechnology to help us survive with heightened senses, advanced teaching at an early age, control of the masses.  And lets not forget cross breading with other species.  We’ll figure out how to make it work just like every other problem.  It’ll only take some time, and you’ve given us plenty to work with.

Toys … yeah, kids will always have toys.  They need to learn after all.  The last mimzy, if you will.  Been there, done that.

Some left over technology specifics (alphabetically): anti-matter engines, invisibility, starships, telepathy, teleportation, terraforming, and “time travel” will exist.  Although by 1,000,000AD our understanding of “time” will be as knowing a steams trickles to an oceans currents.  Perhaps time and energy are related, just like matter and energy are.  Lots of possibilities there.  (Anti-matter engines?  What about dark matter engines since there seems to be more of it out there?) (Why do we want to make things invisible?  To hide a planet and watch as the young space cadet crashes into it so we get a good laugh?) (Do we crack the moon apart to make starships for the long journey outwards?  Nature gave us the clue how, when the meteor that created Mare Imbrium almost broke the moon apart – like hitting a bowling ball with a bullet from a high speed rifle.  Break up the moon, attach a few engines, put in some renewable life suppport systems, add guidance and astrogation, and wah-lah! Instant starship with enough room to hold a few generations of colonists.) (Do we terraform mars, reignite its core to provide warmth and a nice van allen belt, and then extend that to other worlds beyond our own solar system?) (Why will we still do or need any of this in one million years?)

There is also the matter of the plateau theory.  We advance for a short burst, for example inventing the wheel and 6 other basic tools, and then level out for a period of time while we figure out what to do with them.  The dark ages are another example of a plateau.  In a million years, it is probable that thousands of such events will occur.  Perhaps even “bust” periods where technology is lost due to cataclysm or conflict.  But on the whole, technology will march forwards in its own herky jerky way.

Religion … yeah, it’ll still be around, but not as we know it today.  By then I hope we have a whole new concept that no one’s thought of yet to explain “god” or “time” or whatever.  Maybe a ‘radio’ to talk with “god” has been invented by then.  Technology will solve the problems we develop as a system of interacting societies, like the problem of “why are we here?” which WAS traditionally a question for religions and philosophers.

Go reread the Foundation series, and the Dune series for that matter as a contrast point, and think in Harry Seldon terms about the psycho-history you are really looking to generate.  Technology follows social reasons, and is almost never developed for its own sake.  “To better understand the nature of God,” for example.  Or because it made business more efficient/profitable to transport things by train. Or to develop a weapon to defeat our ancient enemies the kaleds.  To make life easier, allow for more leisure time, to prolong life, etc.  Once we pass those current problems we have faced since the dawn of mankind, what problems will we try to solve then?  Immortality … seems easy quite honestly if you can get past the prejudice of having a body or at least your original one.

Somewhere in all that you may find part of the answer you are looking for.  It all really depends on what is motivating us, and that is not a technological question at all.

=====

So that’s where it went.  If that hasn’t given you enough to think about, then go back to enjoying the football game and living in the moment.  There’s something to be said for that too.

Be well.

From October 11, within a few days of the start of the evening, a “reverse taobao mall alliance” organization with the best clothes, TianYu, Korea all library garment shed, the European Sally, seven space space etc big sellers for several attacks, such as focus on their an article without payment, make goods shelves, other customers can’t normal buy; To buy things for no reason to give bad review; Choose cod and collective refused, or buy things apply for refund. These behavior makes the big sellers for normal operation and once unable to close shop.

The group’s main member is clean out treasure on the mall thousands of small and medium-sized sellers, they used to contact the voice channel when action peak gathered 50000 people.

And this group of people that, in order to against clean out treasure mall just on the introduction of the 2012 new rules-will be renewed investment in the technology service lives from next year for 6000 yuan RMB increased to 3 and 6 two thousand files, deposit $ 10000 from up to 150000.

It funny, this set is a little political stylish rider? Clean out treasure to “not profit” slogan attract crowds, MaYunYong “help small and medium-sized enterprise” spiritual strength launch crowd, to build a kingdom; But the back, a group of the mob is used QiuFu and “down with local tyrants and evil gentry” a to solve the problem.

These small and medium-sized sellers to clean out treasure a mall is obviously feel suddenly raise price. They faced two choices: you get a contract extension, taobao mall, the service charge will pay the costs to rise sharply and may lead to losses; Either stop a contract extension, but just don’t sell inventory will make its lost a lot of money. That year, clean out treasure to adjust the C2C rules, some sellers used means such as meditation protesting, but right now this group of people is directly used a rational way–no matter how, for optimal clothing such as library of big sellers against makes no sense, it is a kind of the mob behavior.

This from reflection to clean out treasure and facing the alibaba group a dilemma.

From a business point of the contract, Mr Ma didn’t do anything wrong. So he attitude is very tough, claims to insist the principle will not give in. At the same time, he’s still in the 17, the press conference held in taobao mall promoting service and clarify not for acquisitions yahoo and circle of money, because with this money “200 do not have”. But he still can not deny the fact that clean out treasure to need to take this step.

In the past nine years, clean out treasure has been playing free card, but when the jingdong and every guest and rapid development opponent B2C, clean out treasure to face not to advance is to go back pressure, it through the form of resolution to strengthen B2C business, hoping to profit. Yahoo does not use clean out treasure the mall a little money, Mr Ma has been through the financing means to solve the money problem, but in alibaba group is an IPO context, as the highest under the clean out treasure valuations of assets clearly need to give investors points out a clear path of earnings.

Clean out treasure every time the adjustment of the past to profit in the seller will cause of vibration. Taobao mall has been cleared and hope to get rid of the bad sellers, fake. In addition to improving access requirements, clean out treasure will continue introducing high quality big sellers, such as of the end of September, number one shop, the intime nets, mecoxlane, KuBa nets, etc and home in taobao mall vertical B2C sites open flagship store. Taobao mall, the new rule also is just a start. Taobao mall is small and medium-sized sellers days will become more and more sad, so they will strongly opposed.

Until October 17, the ministry of commerce to mediation, there is safety in Numbers against taobao mall alliance was willing to back off, while taobao mall also postpone the 2012 contract plan, but claimed that not in direct negotiations with each other.

The crisis reflect taobao mall and the contradiction between the sellers have reached a level. In order to alleviate contradictions, Mr Ma and unconsciously played “moral” brand, has announced that it will spend 1.8 billion yuan taobao mall foster small and medium-sized seller. Taobao mall President zhang yong also explained, launching the new policy is definitely not in order to collect more money.

This perhaps is not wise. Mr Ma is time unload the aura of head, open a little. Business is business, after all, love money nothing wrong businessman.

In resent years, Computer Operating Systems has become the most powerful and integal know component of every ‘Computer System’ in the world. Without the ‘Operating System’ of a computer, you’ll almost impossibly be able to use a computer. You don’t need to know any complicated commands settings or codes to be able to use a computer with the aid of computer operating system.

Right in the first few years of computers, operating systems was not in existence. But after the invention of powerful computers, operating systems where developed. What is known as punch cards was being used to enter information’s onto a computer before operating systems came to existence. To get the desired information’s needed on computers, punch card machines where used. But they were not all that efficient.

Then some ‘computer programmers‘ had a good vision. They thought it would be wonderful if everyone could simply use a computer without having to know all tll the complicated programming languages of a computer. They began designing the first computer operating systems, and soon found success in producing what is now generally known as Computer Operating System (OS).

With the success of early computer programmers, there are so many computer operating systems these days available in the world of computers today. New ‘Computer Operating Systems’ are developed every now and then. Virtually most of resent operating systems are designed with the common user in mind. An average computer user can now load most computer programs with a simple use of a mouse and just a few clicks.

Every computer operating system has a specific function to perform behind the scenes. The user will not even be able to see or even need to know that they are there. What these operating systems do behind your computer is commonly known as multiple tasking. It makes using a PC much more easily without managing computer resources manually.

Among the main basic functions every computer operating system does perform include: Managing your Random Access Memory (RAM), managing your Hard Disc, scheduling of various tasks on your computer, providing a reasonable level of security to your computer, to prevent any external party to gain access to your PC, to navigate various programs on your PC whenever you want to open them and much more.

Microsoft Windows and Apple’s Mac OS are the worlds most famous operating systems today. Other similar operating systems do exist also. But they got their technologies from the world’s famous two computer leading giants.

There are two other operating systems that are rapidly gaining popularity in the world of computers today. They are Linux and GNU. But they are mainly focused on the network and system marketing industry to be specific.

The different ways we freely use our computers today in our homes and offices, are only possible with the help and technology of operating systems. We would have remained in the primitive ages today, without the evolution of computers and operating systems.
