The computerized and computerization in foods managing designs is suffering from lots of problems if they are used close by water terrible results on any pc. Most foods managing designs choose waterproof pcs to protected their pcs from drenching in the area.
Computer in the healthcare field
Hospital is an important organisation and PCs are used for the control of a medical center. The accounting, pay-roll and inventory system of the medical center have been computerized in latest days. We can maintain the history of different medication, their distribution and use in different wards etc. using computer. Even the condition can be scientifically clinically diagnosed by coming into the warning signs of an individual. Moreover, various PC based devices are used in labs for different tests of blood vessels etc.

India and Internet
People laughed and shrugged when Eric Schmidt the CEO of Google stated five years before about the influence of India on internet in next ten years that created all round flutter among the English dominant internet world. This statement came five years before, now enough water has flown down in Ganges since Eric said it and the influence has begun to show. India is heading toward becoming the biggest internet market in the world. Wait, the statement further said that America where the information technology took off would not be able to survive without help of India. A big statement, probably he saw the influence of Hindi on internet and increasing number of people using Hindi as well as English. That probably encouraged Eric to stat that Mandarin, English and Hindi would be the future languages of internet, in that order.
Now, we can put it this way that probably internet is assisting Hindi to get more popularity and proving the myth wrong that computer and English are made for each other. The facts are machine serves the purpose of consumer and not vise versa, this is quite visible as Hindi is growing in stature and taking over its proper place in computing world. India with its Hindi speaking/understanding majority have taken to computing with growing interest since the software available that helps them adapt to internet with ease and without making them afraid of use of English language. Although most user are doing it out of eagerness for the time being but this also is a fact tat these people are encouraging people who are not comfortable with use of English, to use computer in Hindi.
We are in the process of converting software in regional languages and with our manpower and support for different languages especially Hindi, Eric’s statement may come true sooner than his expectations. After all how long can we keep computer away from rural masses of India and more so while the prices of computers are going down every day. We shall have to develop software according to need of people and the way things are moving the day seems to approaching fast. Computer is here to stay in local languages as the demand for the same is growing at a rapid rate.
Consumer and market demand
Information technology is spreading is wings in new horizons, they are searching for new markets because the market in English speaking areas has almost reached to a saturation point and if they do not search for new consumers there is no scope for computer industry in coming years. Mobile and internet technologies are coming up fast in India to support the growing demands of local consumer in big way. Communication sector is at its peak and India is attracting multinationals to try their luck and to be precise they have already developed Hindi applications for use of Hindi text service in Indian markets for their gadgets as optional facility. Multinationals are in no position to overlook giant size Indian markets with so much scope that is available in different languages headed by Hindi.
Multinationals looking at Indian Markets
Yahoo, google and MSN are some of the big names marching toward Hindi market in India because even the local Hindi portals are becoming independent as millions are reaching to them so not depending much on dotcom craze. As the stats suggest that, no international IT company was showing any interest just before five years is ready to jump into the fray to grab the opportunity of growing Hindi market. Today every big name right from Google to yahoo has come to India as the prospects of Hindi software look brighter today. Microsoft has brought its Desktop related products in Hindi, IBM, and Sun Microsystems Oracle all are following the trend with Linux and Macintosh not far behind. Browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Netscape and opera are supporting Hindi. Hindi is becoming popular in blogging and articles. In a nutshell, Hindi being the language of masses is attracting every one from consumer as well as manufacturers of software and hardware fields.
Unicode encoding system
This is a pleasant coincident for Hindi users that Unicode encoding/converter has made it possible to use Hindi as efficiently as English language at international standard. The combination of Hindi market and interest of multinationals has cashed on this boom like any thing and more than any thing the Unicode has provided the standardization of Hindi language use in computers. The only problem faced by Hindi user is the use of keyboard, which is still in Roman letters. The techniques like transliteration are bringing Hindi users to closer to the computers but the use of keyboard is only half as efficient for people interested in Hindi use, as the use of keyboard without Hindi font is not as easy. The present system demands people to learn computing in English and learn to use it in regional languages by trial and error technology. I think if the facility of both fonts is made available can solve the purpose up to an extent.
One thing is sure that if we want to popularize use of Hindi in computer sector we shall have to provide Hindi software at reasonable price at a rapid speed and the use of the same would need to extend to e-commerce, technology, science, e-education, e-administration and help lines. They shall need a proper integration of these applications and facilities with English language sites to make them fully functional and take full advantage.
Books on technology available in Hindi
The books in Hindi related to computer training, education and designing, which were available until a few years before in English only are available easily for the benefit of Hindi consumer. Even complicated topics like web designing are covered as the Hindi user is interested to know about every field including IT. No one thought only a few years before that people might demand books related to computer languages of Basic, Java, C++, multimedia etc in Hindi but this is happening today. Hindi is as much in demand and English is no more a language of elite class. Writers in Hindi are as much of demand as in English and this all have become possible because computer has accepted to Hindi in a big way.

Google Image search is familiar to all of us. There are so many tools and option within Google’s image search which helps one to generate exact results he or she is looking for. In this article I'll be sharing some of the useful tips, tricks and techniques you will find helpful. There are many new options available and Google is surprising us often by adding unique features to their services. Let's discover the power of Google Image search...
Recognizing a person or place from a picture
Google Image search has this new feature where you can paste a link or upload a picture and the search engine will tell you the details of the picture, if any, fetching from the web. This is very useful if you have to find out some persons in a photograph or so.
To do this go to www.images.google.com and at the left column of the text input box you'll see a small icon of a camera, click on this icon and paste the URL or upload the image itself from there. And the Google will do the rest.
Narrowing the search using the options in the left column
Once you search something with Google image search, in the results page's left side you'll see a column with many options. These options can narrow down your search to find the exact pictures you need. But that's not all; you can narrow your search even more once you go to the 'Advanced Search' option by clicking the small settings icon located at the top right corner of the page. Anyway, let's go through the quickly available options, which are directly available on the search results page, right now.
Time based filtering
The first option is the time range filtering. By default you can see the ‘Any time’ option will be selected. But say, if you need some latest photos of someone or some incident, then you can select ‘Past 24 hours’ or ‘Past week’ option. There is also option to display the photos published within a specific range of time.
Size based filtering
If you’re searching for photos for some presentation or something (Of course, there are copyright issues and I’ll be discussing about that later in this article) you’re going to need some high resolution pictures rather than small ones. So you can either select ‘Large’ or ‘Medium’ option to filter out all the small pictures. There are also options to search for exact resolution images by specifying the width and height you require in pixels. You can also search images which are larger than a fixed size.
Color based filtering
Next option is color based filtering which allows you to search for only images with Black and white color or even images which highlight a specific color.
Type based filtering
If you’re searching for someone and you need an image which gives preference to the person’s face, then you can select the face option from the list of options under ‘Type’. There are also other filtering options listed there such as ‘Clip Art’, ‘Line Drawing’ etc.
Using ‘Advanced Search’ option for image search
I have already said how to navigate to the ‘Advance Search’ of Google Image’s search. Now you can see many input boxes listed under the title ‘Find Images With....’. On the right side of these input boxes there are guidelines of how to do this search, directly, using shortcuts.
‘All these words’
Searching terms in this box returns results with all the words. For example, if we type in Computer mouse it returns images with tags computer and mouse.
‘This exact word or phrase’
If you’re searching for something exact (like a quote or saying) then enter it in this field as it returns results with exact words and order of words.
‘Any of these words’
If you use this box then it will return results with pages with any of the words you’ve mentioned. For e.g searching ‘Mountain River’ returns results which either includes mountain or river
‘None of these words’
This search option is very useful when you’re searching some terms which comes under two different subjects. For e.g. Virus is a term which is present in both in computer and biology related topics and to exclude the computer related virus in your search results you can type in ‘computer’ in this box.
Narrowing your search further
Under the options mentioned about you’ll see more options to narrow down your search results using more options. Most of these options are available directly on the results page and were discussed earlier above. Anyway, there are some more options under this page and they are discussed below.
Aspect ratio
This allows you to search images of specific aspect ratio. For e.g. if you want panoramic images then set the aspect ratio as panoramic and you’ll be shown only such images.
Region
This option lets you search for images based on specific regions. For e.g. searching for ‘Temples’ can be narrowed by selecting a country.
Site or Domain
Let’s you search images in a specific site or domain. For e.g. you can filter for images only from government site by typing .gov in here.
Safe Search
Want to display only family friendly results? Then set your safe search option to strict. If not set it to moderate (which excludes most of the explicit images) or Off to allow all kinds of images.
File type
Using this you can select the image format like Jpg, BMP etc. This is useful sometimes while you’re searching for .gif images or transparent formats like.png.
Filtering based on license
All the images have some sort of licensing and one cannot simply search images from the web and use for their projects. There are many copyright laws existing and when downloading images one should be careful. In some cases one can use images with ‘Fair use’ policy. So it may not be a serious problem if one use an image of a monument in a Slide show presentation in his class room (yet, it is safer and better to ask for the permission of the publisher of the image).
So one should not be adding images to a website, blog, articles etc. which he/she obtained from a simple Google Image search. Anyway, Google Image search has an option which filters out images by license. And it’s discussed below.
As you can see from the screenshot above there are number of option available under the license based filtering. By default Google searches for images which are not filtered by license. Anyway, there are many other options like ‘Free to use or share’ etc. which gives you images which are a little more liberal to use for our needs. One should keep in mind that such images are also licensed and there may be many conditions to use such images, like adding a link to the original website of the image owner in the page you’ve added the image.
These are some of the important things one should know about Google’s Image search. It’s very powerful and can be used efficiently using the various features available.
