Engineers have the potential of developing technology that will be used by hundreds‚ thousands‚ even millions of people. Since so many people are using this technology‚ it has to be safe and it has to benefit one population without making another suffer. As the engineers design new technology‚ they are the ones that have an ethical responsibility to ensure that it will not endanger lives or cause any suffering. The purpose of the essay is to explore the specific issues that face electrical engineers. The

Cortical Spiking Neurons? Eugene M. Izhikevich Abstract—We discuss the biological plausibility and computational efficiency of some of the most useful models of spiking and bursting neurons. We compare their applicability to large-scale simulations of cortical neural networks. Index Terms—Chaos‚ Hodgkin–Huxley‚ pulse-coupled neural network (PCNN)‚ quadratic integrate-and-fire (I&F)‚ spike-timing. A. Tonic Spiking Most neurons are excitable‚ that is‚ they are quiescent but can fire spikes when stimulated

Identify three renewable energy sources and assess their potential to replace fossil fuel The rapid depletion of fossil fuels has given serious warning that the era of using conventional energy is coming to an end. Due to the energy shortage‚ a need to find replacement of fossil fuels has appeared. Moreover‚ problems such as various pollution and serious climate change have occurred‚ which makes renewable and less pollution energy source alternative choices. Therefore‚ three options can be suggested

The potential dangers of loose objects in vehicles are strongly associated with Newton’s First Law of Motion‚ inertia. Inertia is when an object in motion tries to stay in motion‚ and an object at rest tries to remain at rest‚ unless the object is acted upon by an outside force. For example‚ say a car is traveling along a straight road. Loose objects in the auto are "acted upon" by the body‚ seats‚ or some other part of the vehicle (whatever is touching a loose object)‚ whenever the whole thing
