Reflections of the movies below :)

Future Technology
“Technology cannot save all our problems, and even if it could, there is some intrinsic value in doing a little hard work yourself.” when you aim this high, you can beat all the competition even if you fail to set a new world record”.


1.Wall-E movie
Reflection:
As I watch the movie it’s sweet, clever, funny, and visually stunning and the story seems interesting, besides this movie which is “Wall-E,” creates a revolution by inspiring a reflection on the defense of life and hope for humanity. It promoted with an interpunct as WALL•E, is a 2008 American computer-animated science fiction film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and directed by Andrew Stanton. The story follows a robot named WALL-E, who is designed to clean up a waste-covered Earth far in the future. He eventually falls in love with another robot named EVE, and follows her into outer space on an adventure that changes the destiny of both his kind and humanity. WALL-E is quite simply, a wonderful animated film that teeters on the edge of greatness but stumbles ever so slightly toward being merely very good. The movie is at its best and most innovative during its first third, which plays like visionary piece of science fiction gene-spliced with a silent movie romantic comedy. As horrible as that hybrid might sound, it is actually a potent combination. Vast cityscapes, beautifully rendered with computer-generated imagery, dazzle the as much as any live-action special effects movie, while the quirky little love story engages your heart without insulting your head. This amazing section of the film is a triumph of animated pantomime. Although the two robots exchange a few words (basically, their names), the storytelling rests on the visuals, which succeed magnificently at overcoming the most obvious hurdle built into the plot: How can we identify with the romantic yearnings of an inhuman mechanical droid – especially when he can never tell us what is in his heart?
I love the characters of the movie one of this is the new woman, Eve, is not only beautiful and perfect but also has time to fall in love, save the world and restore the life of her boyfriend: an absolute revolution in Hollywood’s imaginary cinematography, and the male character in the movie is left with the task of finding a place for poetry and beauty in a world “without life, covered in trash and awaiting the return of humans who wander in a giant spaceship to again repopulate the earth, Piersanti wrote. “The robotic Adam and Eve have the task of restoring to man the place that awaits him”. The script of this movie does not say that humans are part of the problem but part of the solution. The real problem is disengaging from the world, relying on machines to do the work that people should do. The idea that people are preferable to machines is neither radical nor liberal; if anything it’s profoundly conservative. Only someone looking for a place to grind his ax could find fault with the movie’s message, which is nothing more outrageous than,



2.Surrogates
Reflection:
This movie Surrogates is one of those movies that makes like the Ghost of Christmas Yet to come in that it takes place in a not-too-distant future. It’s a warning of sorts or, at the very least, a heads up. Just about everyone has a robot self, a surrogate, that exists in the public world. We humans are relegated to languishing in our homes, being all unattractive and such. But these surrogates are the model of perfection, at least in the looks department. At least, that was the gist that I got. Surrogate Bruce Willis’ hair looked like it belonged on a teenaged Donald Trump.
Surrogates questions the direction of disconnect in which we could be headed. With technology we can be more connected than ever, but it’s replacing the important person-to-person interactions. Rather than chatting with the people we’re standing in line with, we’re engaging in text conversations with people on the other side of town. Instead of taking a short walk down the hall to see if a co-worker wants to grab a bite to eat, we’re often sending them an email. It’s an act of removal and the creation of real surrogates would be the ultimate embodiment of this.
Ironically, Surrogates raises a lot of big and relevant questions, something integral to great science fiction. Although answers don’t always have to be provided, I never fully got the sense that the movie did little more than scratch the surface of possibilities. And because of that, it created the very same vacuum of disconnect it appeared to be investigating.

3.Eagles Eye
Reflection:
The movie “Eagle Eye” is a totally derivative, unoriginal techno-thriller, cribbing scenes and ideas from films as diverse as “North by Northwest,” “2001: A Space Odyssey” and “War Games.” But it’s also thoroughly entertaining, with a fun cast and a plot that moves quickly from crisis to crisis, action scene to action scene. The movie kicks off deep within the Pentagon. It seems that a high-value terrorist target might be on the move, and Secretary of Defense Callister (Michael Chiklis) has been called in to pull the trigger. With just a 51 percent likelihood of an identity match — determined from video/voice info culled from cell phones and satellite imagery — Callister (and the computer running the command center) suggest terminating the mission. The president pushes ahead; however, firing on what might be a funeral and sparking international backlash. This movie fails to explore the admittedly justified suspicions that it arouses with any seriousness. D.J. Caruso delivers a competent thriller, substituting explosions and outrageous notions for personal style and thoughtful storytelling. DreamWorks' 2-disc DVD set will probably satisfy fans of the film, but the movie hardly warrants the special edition treatment.


4.Irobot
Reflection:
The movie doesn't really make clear what a different world it would be if intelligent robots were everywhere. There is brief mention of people losing their jobs to robots, which would certainly happen. But think about the effect on the economy if the cost of labor was effectively zero. Every product imaginable would become dirt cheap, effectively making us all millionaires. And the fast pace of scientific discovery we have now would seem glacial compared to an era when smart machines are designing even smarter machines. Some people call this rapidly approaching moment The Singularity, because once it happens knowledge expands so fast that it's impossible for us to imagine what it would be like. It's apparent fairly early on that this I, Robot won't detain itself with questions about AI ethics or philosophy. It starts as a whodunit, with Spooner as the bitter cop with a murder theory, which no one believes because he has an Issue with Robots. We're meant to side with him, because the robots' defense team includes dry-ice programmer Bridget Moynihan and corporate honcho Bruce Greenwood, who I expected to be addressed by a concerned robot: "You are in serious danger of being typecast as a callous Stupid White Man. For the safety of your career, please proceed in a calm fashion to the nearest Atom Egoyan casting call." It's almost touchingly naïve; who has more time for creative endeavors,

5.Pirates of the Silicon Valley
Reflection:
This is the story of the growth of the personal computer industry. The movie while based on historical fact did alter things a bit for dramatic reasons. The Movie begins with IBM in the early 1980's, the big brother in the computer world that everyone else feared. Everyone dressed alike at IBM, company songs and jingles filled the air, and men in suits were everywhere. In the movie Steve Jobs split his company, Apple into two camps. One the old Apple computer camp and the other the new Macintosh development camp. After seeing this effect on the company, Steve Jobs is forced to leave his position at Apple. Years later the movie picks up with Steve Jobs back in command of Apple who now has partnered with Microsoft and Bill Gates This was a made for TV movie by Turner but it was an excellent movie.
The film dutifully details the skyrocketing of Apple from a manufacturer of the first cookie cutter color PCs (the Apple II that didn't leave your high school until well after you did) to one of the biggest personal computer companies to the giant taken down by the people that helped build it up (don't you know, Microsoft helped make the original Macintosh operating system).

The movie also showcases the big sneaky moves of the business. It shows how Apple grabbed the idea of the GUI from Xerox, how Microsoft got the first DOS from someone else, and how Microsoft started making its own interfaces. Pirates of Silicon Valley also paints an anecdotal picture of the insanity of Jobs and Gates -- Jobs incites cross product team food fights, Gates drives a bulldozer on the grounds of the Redmond campus.




The primary problem with Pirates of Silicon Valley is that it paints every person and event in it like Central Park caricatures. Wyle tries too hard at being the brilliant asshole. Anthony Michael Hall plays Bill Gates like the unpopular kid trying to take over the clubhouse. It also plays lip gloss to a lot of the real reasons for the popularity of Windows (hardware interoperability, business computing needs, supply chain distribution, and developer friendliness).

Why do we need study technology?

Nowadays technology is really indispensable in a community. Mostly people depend on the technology it has become necessary to understand the importance of technology so that we can keep up with the racing time. Technology has become important in the fast life of today. We can't deny the fact that with the use of technology we can do things easier.
It is very essential to study technology because it allows people to utilize tools that allow overcoming of mental and physical boundaries. There are many discoveries that really help people to do a thing. Example the internet made it possible for this information to reach far and wide, the students can make their research and assignment easily and comfortable because the information they needed is already in the internet. Another discovery is the Radio communication has made it possible to broadcast programs that can reach to radios in the remotest households. Besides people aware of the happenings of the world and the latest news. After the discovery of electricity, technology was employed to bring electricity to households in every corner of the world. The world could light up in the dark, thanks to the effective generation and distribution of electricity. People use technology in everyday life, such as farming, and things like that. So if we didn't have technology it would be a way slow process with a bunch of unhappy people that want things now. There are so many examples of technology and why people need it. Thanks to technology, many of the critical and time-consuming processes have been automated. Technology has the potential of changing the face of the world. In addition With the developments in technology, we may be able to enjoy all the pricey luxuries but miss out on the little priceless joys of life.

Assingnment 3 (SAD2)

Interview your university network specialist. Ask how various parts of the system communicates with each other throughout the university. (Q) Given the chance to redesign the existing setup, enumerate and discuss your keypoints for an effective and efficient network environment ideal for the university.
(at least 3000 words)
Here are the questions being asked to a network specialist in university:

1. In system development, how various parts of the system communicate with each other throughout the university? In what way?

Answer: Regarding System Development, the best person to ask is our University Programmers, Mr. Fortich and Dr. Mercado.

2. What are the components involved in the system(s) in the university? (hardware, software, technology, etc.)

Answer: I am not in the right position to discuss the details of the software components used as there are other assigned personnel for such job. However, talking about hardware component and technology used, basically I, assigned as the network administrator, is entrusted to maintain our different servers to run 24/7. Currently, we have our Web Server hosted here in our University in our HP ProLiant ML350 Server. Its an old but stable server set-up here in our Networks Office and has been active since Engr. Val A. Quimno , not yet a dean, was appointed as the Network Administrator. The said server has the following specification:
• Intel Xeon 3.0 GHz, 3.2 GHz, or 3.4 GHz processors (dual processor capability) with 1MB level 2 cache standard. Processors include support for Hyper-Threading and Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T)

• Protected by HP Services and a worldwide network of resellers and service providers. Three-year Next Business Day, on-site limited global warranty. Certain restrictions and exclusions apply. Pre-Failure Notification on processors, memory, and SCSI hard drives.
Aside from it, our mail server running under Compaq Proliant ML330 Server, our oldest server, is also hosted here in our Networks Office. Together with other Servers, such as Proxy and Enrollment Servers, both proxy and our enrollment servers are running in a microcomputer/personal computers but with higher specifications to act as servers.

3. How do these communicate with one another? (topology, network connectivity, protocols, etc.) – may include data flow/ UML diagrams to better explain.

 All Servers are connected in a shared medium grouped as one subnetwork. In general, our network follows the extended star topology which is connected to a DUAL WAN Router that serves as the load balancer between our two Internet Service Providers. All other workstations are grouped into different subnetworks as in star topology branching out from our servers subnetwork as in extended star topology. At present, we are making use of class C IP Address for private IP address assignments. Other workstations IP assignments are configured statically (example: laboratories) while others are Dynamic (example: offices). All workstations are connected via our proxy servers that do some basic filtering/firewall to control users access to the internet aside from router filtering/firewall management. So, whenever any workstation has to connect to the internet, it has to pass through software and hardware based firewall.

4. What are the processes involved in the communication (each system to other systems)?
 As mentioned above, in item 3, all workstations are connected via a proxy server. It means that whenever a workstation is turned on, it requests for an IP address from the proxy server (for dynamically configured IP address) and connect to the network after IP address is acquired. As connection is established, each system can now communicate and share resources within the same subnetwork and to server following the concepts discuss in your Computer Network Class.

5. How do you go along with the maintenance of the system?
 Basically, our servers are expected to be in good condition since it is required to be up 24/7. Daily, during my vacant period, monitoring on the servers are observed that includes checking logs, checking hardware performance such as CPU health, etc. If problems are observed, remedies are then and then applied. Once in a week, regular overall checkup is observed as preventive maintenance to ensure not to experience longer downtime if possible.

6. Does the system follow a specific standard? Explain Please.
 As I was appointed as the Network Administrator, everything was already in place except for some minor changes. Basically, different networking standards was already observed such as cabling standards, TIA/EIA 568A-B, different IEEE standards as discussed in your Computer Networks Subject, etc.

7. How is the security of the system? Are there any vulnerabilities? Risks? Corresponding mitigation techniques? Access control?
 As I have mentioned, we have implemented both software and hardware based filtering/firewall. Basically, Risks or vulnerabilities and different mitigation techniques were considered to increase security in our network. Aside from filtering/firewall, constant monitoring on networks activity also increases the security of the system.

8. Are there any interference? During what (most) times do these occur? Explain their effects especially with regards to the business of the university?
 Major Interferences are normally encountered as an effect of unforeseen and beyond our control events such as black outs, and the like. The said interference would of course affect University’s day-to-day businesses for obviously this will paralyze all our activities that rely on electricity and further this might cause damage on our network devices, etc. that may later be the reason for longer downtime. Problems encountered by our providers such as connection to the National/International Gateway also affect University’s business such as correlating to University’s Business Partners outside and within the country.

Assingnment 2 (SAD2)

Relative to your answer in Assignment 1 .... what's your take on the design of the enrollment system?

As a student of a state university it is a burden for us during enrollment time as we observe it has many process to be considered in order for us to enroll, and we can help to lessen the burden of the students in this university during enrollment days.

As what i've noticed on the design of the enrollment system it is good but we need to develop it more just like lessen the steps of enrollment process so that the students can do their other concerns.

Assingnment 1 (SAD2)

Assuming you were tapped by the university president to evaluate the new enrollement system implemented this semester, enumerate your observations/comments and suggest possible areas and ways where improvements can be made. Your observations/suggestions should be properly validated with facts and literatures...(you may start with the diagrams posted in the strategic locations of the university)... (1000words)


I think the new enrollment system may have numerous advantages technically but for me as a student, I think that the new system’s procedure has a very slight difference compared from the old enrollment system. In my own opinion, I believed that more than anything else, the admin should find ways to help lessen the burden of the students in this university. I suggest that it would be better if they will also find ways to simplify the procedure and not just change the software system alone. Although it is too early to judge the new system, I believed that they should consider these factors. I believed that the newly implemented system will still undergo several revisions because the developers were only given a very limited period of time to implement the said system.
