Introduction

It is easier to confirm that a crime has been committed than to identify and prove the culprits or the suspects who have committed the crime. The American criminal justice system finds it hard to identify and convict the suspects who have committed serious felonies when the victims and members of the public fail to identify the suspects and testify in court. In such situations, the American criminal justice system has been compelled to depend on the DNA profiling and testimonies provided by the eyewitnesses to identify, prosecute and convict the suspects. Although the criminal justice system depend on the ...

Introduction

Bacillus Subtilis are the organisms that are aerobic, Gram Positive, spore-forming belonging to the Bacillus genus. The organisms are together with other species that are closely related play a crucial role in disease, food poisoning as well as food spoilage. Lack of methods that are standardized for the identification of the organisms whether coming from the food or environment has made the tests to be difficult.

Identification of each individual from the massive inventory of living organisms requires appropriate classification system. This system allows not only identification of all specimens that are already collected, but also allows identification of the newly discovered organisms in the future. The classification system is robustly based on science and logic, so this system is universally applicable. The classification system starts by grouping the specimens into two major categories namely animals and plants. In general, animals are grouped by the presence of appendages that implies the ability to move on their own while plants are grouped together based on ...

For a number of years, the United States Justice system has recorded a number of wrongful convictions in its jurisdiction. Steckler (2013) argues that this is so but such cases are on the minimum and the legal task force directs all they have into ensuring legal justice delivery. However, in such instances no matter how rare, the damages caused are permanent and the wrongfully convicted have to live with this. The only beneficiary to wrong convictions is the actual proprietor who gets to live free of accountability to the offense. This is dangerous in its own sense because the proprietor is ...

Face Recognition System

Categorization and Features Face recognition system is a biometric system-any automatically measurable, robust and distinctive traits that can be used to identify an individual- that operates in two modes; face verification or authentication, and face identification or recognition (Li & Jain, 2011). Face verification postulates a one to one match that likens a face image in question against an enrollment face image whose identity is being claimed (Li & Jain, 2011). A distinctive application of this mode is person verification for self served immigration clearance using E-passport (Li & Jain, 2011). On the other hand, face identification encompasses one-to-many matching that compares a face in ...

Abstract

Operating systems are pieces of software applications that run computer systems. Without operating systems, computer systems would not work effectively, and humans would find no use in them. Simply, operating systems is a collection of software applications that facilitate the management of computer resources and give an interface for computer applications to interact with hardware. In spite the importance of these systems in bridging the relationship between the user and the hardware, most of the commercial OS have buggy code that is susceptible to security threats. Thus, building a trusted OS that can withstand all the security threats in the computing ...

Substitution debate

There has been debate as to whether barcode technology should be substituted by Radio Frequency Identification technology. Barcodes and Radio Frequency Identification have revolutionized and improved several aspects of human life. They are automatic systems of identification that are used extensively in the present day. Each of the two technologies has its merits and demerits. However, Radio Frequency Identification is more advantageous. Barcodes are optically represented data that are interpreted by scanning machines after the scanning process is complete. When using barcodes technology, spacing and width are used to represent the data. Lately, barcodes have been used as the ...

Abstract

Biology has occupied a place of honor in the forensic laboratories, and such an easy task as a personal identification is now impossible without the usage of methods of this science. This research is focused on the most promising direction of forensics – the evidence of identification on DNA analysis results. This method is a revolutionary one, preceded by fingerprinting, but much more accurate and correct. Unless it needs a small amount of any tissue with a cell, the DNA analysis is a complicated process because even a small laboratory error may put an unguilty person into prison as it was many years ago before the discovery ...

Article summary: Does servant leadership foster creativity and innovation? A multi-level mediation study of identification and prototypicality

The main goal of the multi-level study conducted by Yoshida D.T. et al. (2013) was to assess how servant leadership influences employee creativity and team innovation simultaneously. Businesses often gain their competitive advantage through employees that come up with creative, innovative ideas and work as a team to implement them. However, although these factors are highly interdependent, prior researches only focused on either creativity or innovation. No fundamental attempts were made to study how certain leadership behaviors simultaneously affect these two aspects on different levels. Former researches examined how transformational leadership or leader-member relationship influenced employee creativity. As it was ...

Artful scenario spinning is a form of convergent thinking about divergent futures

Steward Brand was in essence explaining the concept of scenario thinking from a broader perspective. Indeed, scenario planning passes out as a courageous look into the future. As Brand puts it, scenario thinking focuses on predicting the future outcomes of decision models. In this regard, scenario planning can be rightly perceived as a thought process of the divergent futures. However, the requirement to pool the thought processes together to come up with a comprehensive state of affairs brings out the convergence of thought. Brand later observes this as convergent thinking of the divergent futures. In addition, one would want to consider scenario planning ...
