INTRODUCTION: A local area network (LAN) is a network of computers that interconnects computers in a limited or a small area such as a home‚ computer lab‚ school‚ or office building using the network media. The defining characteristics of LANs‚ is in contrast to the wide area networks (WANs)‚ including their higher data-transfer rates‚ smaller geographic area‚ and lack of a need for leased telecommunication lines. ARCNET‚ Token Ring and other technology standards have been used in the past‚ but

Virtual Reality (VR) What is it? Virtual means ‘almost or nearly as described‚ but not completely’‚ therefore‚ Virtual Reality is when something is not physically existing as such but made by a software to appear to do so. Virtual reality is an artificial 3-dimensional environment that is created with software and presented to the user in such a way that the user suspends belief and accepts it as a real environment. It is a digitally created space that humans could access by donning sophisticated

and Ives‚ 1994). The virtual team represents an important example of these new organizational forms (Jarvenpaa and Ives‚ 1994). Virtual teams are groups of geographically‚ temporally‚ and/or organizationally dispersed knowledge workers brought together across time and space by way of information and communication technologies (DeSanctis and Poole‚ 1997; Jarvenpaa and Leidner‚ 1999; Lipnack and Stamps‚ 1997; Townsend et al.‚ 1998). We limit our investigation to a class of virtual teams that has recently

If I could travel anywhere‚ I would go to... Egypt. The reason I would choose Egypt is to get a first-hand experience on the ancient method the Egyptians used to engineer structures. Their work was so exquisite and astonishing that it is crazy to think modern engineers find it nearly impossible to replicate them. Pyramids were the beginning of architecture and are considered to be the most precise structures know today. They had no modern technology and would generate the most precise masterpieces

environment is changing. The emergency of virtual work has been reflected in some companies’ new work policy. For example‚ Jetblue Airlines has changed its working conditions and established a virtual call centre where employees can work from home without a central office. Despite the technology advancement that enables virtual working‚ the amount of people adopting this new working pattern is still very low. This report will explore the nature of virtual work and analyse the barriers of adopting
