Number of words: 860 - Number of pages: 4.... and creativity to a computer? People have experience, convictions, and cultural traditions. Are these qualities being devalued?

Maglev Consequences
Number of words: 689 - Number of pages: 3.... commercial air
traffic has increased by 56 percent. Adding to the congestion and delay is
increased commuter and regional air traffic. Those short distance flights take
valuable landing slots that could be used for larger planes on more profitable,
longer flights. With the maglev vehicles the shorter trips excluding access
time can be cut a lot. With a study of 16 major corridors of travel, less than
300 miles in length, they studied how well the maglev vehicles could help, and
in 10 out of the 16 the time could be cut at least slightly. Also the cost .....

Reality - What It Is And How It Works
Number of words: 3113 - Number of pages: 12.... applications for medical, space, physical, chemical, and entertainment uses among other things. In order to create this alternate reality, however, you need to find ways to create the illusion of reality with a piece of machinery known as the computer. This is done with several computer-user interfaces used to simulate the senses. Among these, are stereoscopic glasses to make the simulated world look real, a 3D auditory display to give depth to sound, sensor lined gloves to simulate tactile feedback, and head-trackers to follow the orientation of the head. .....
