This year, the Lithuanian start-up FINBRO participated in one of the „Norway Grants” support programs. With its help, the company managed to create one of the most advanced loan comparison platforms on the market. The project lasted one year and, during that time, the FINBRO team developed a smart and artificial intelligence (AI) -based system, which allows the analysis of parameters of financiers and their data, as well as the user himself, and thus save a lot of time and costs both for the end user and the financiers.
The team spent a lot of time collecting various data, analysing and categorizing them, and, later, in testing and remedying software deficiencies, in improving artificial intelligence algorithms. In the final phase of the project, the system was tested in a real environment, the user environment was improved and efforts have been made to ensure the most simple availability of the service.
“FINBRO are happy having received not only financial support, but also help from Anders Stølan and Ivelin Andreev, R&D specialists from Norway, also from Židrina Pabarškaitė, an expert in artificial intelligence, who studied the peculiarities of artificial intelligence not only in the universities of Lithuania, but also of the United Kingdom, and has also worked with many AI companies.”
Particular attention has been given to testing algorithms: since the selection of financiers for the end user, for whom financing can be a step towards one of the most important decisions in life, directly depends on them, Mantas Norvaišas, the founder of FINBRO platform, assures that there is no room for loopholes in this area:
“In the final phase of the project, integration of data collected from different sources and structures and received in different formats were tested. Demonstration of the prototype test version was performed. The system models have been improved taking into account the feedback received. Even the high-speed operation of the system developed under increased load conditions has been tested in cases where the need for financing would increase very suddenly”.
End user friendliness of the FINBRO system has also been improved significantly. Considerable time was spent on creating a web application, starting with the user interface both outside and inside the system when the user is already logged in. The created user interface was integrated into the backend part.
For the maximum synergy, the possibilities of integration into the existing information systems of potential customers and the information technologies used have been discussed together with the customers. Testing with real customers has been performed. During it, major flaws in the user interface have been identified and remedied.
“With the help of „Norway Grants”, most of the work on the technical system part has already been completed during the first stages of the work. Therefore, the last stage was dedicated to the improvement of FINBRO and final steps to rendering it smooth. We always strive for the highest standards. It is good, therefore, that we had a considerable reserve of time for the implementation of top-class ideas,” – summarises M. Norvaišas.
Project No LT07-1-EIM-K02-006 “UAB Finbro R&D operations in the sphere of ICT to boost competitiveness” is financed from the Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014-2021 and the state budget of the Republic of Lithuania.


What Happened: If there’s one takeaway from the 2015 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), it’s that we are moving toward a connected world and economy, with everything “smart.” The movement starts in the home. Companies not normally associated with technology (Lowe’s) or even with home improvement (Sony) are venturing into the smart space. The developments in the Internet of Things are exciting and new for consumers today and, perhaps more important, are intrinsically linked. For example, Sony’s home of the future, called the Life Space UX, diplayed interactive screens everywhere – on kitchen counters or even on the ceiling above the bed – and lights that were more than just bulbs but acted as a sound system. iDevices revealed a connected product called Switch, one of the first tools in Apple’s smart-home platform, HomeKit. Samsung President and CEP, BK Yoon, presented grand ideas for the future of its products, noting that in a few years, every product you own will incorporate some form of technology.
What This Means for Brands: The connected trend has been building for a couple of years, and this year’s CES solidified its importance and ubiquity in the market. No longer just science fiction, smart technology is what users want from their devices. In order to stay relevant and give customers what they are looking for now, and in the near future, brands must continue to innovate and realize advancements of their products that incorporate the network. The Internet of Things often can be realized through partnerships that make sense for your brand. For example, last year at CES, SmartThings unveiled SmartThings Labs, integrating with Philips, Belkin and Sonos. One of the challenges ahead for brands is to make sure the feedback delivered by these connected products is beneficial and efficient enough for users to actually change their behavior and environment for the better. The hope is that consumers will build digital into their everyday activities and that all of their appliances, home theaters, wearables and more will be talking to one another, making us smarter, healthier, greener and more up-to-date in the process.

This device helps in saving the electricity because it doesn’t allow the devices to stay on standby mode. It automatically turns off the devices after some time.
Wind turbines are also eminent source that can generate power from winds. This method is used in several parts of the world.
Solar lighting system can also be quite helpful in saving the electricity.
What are the benefit and need of these devices?
These devices are the need of today’s time because they are highly beneficial in saving our earth from pollution. It is our duty to save the natural resources of our planet and these devices can help us exceedingly well for the purpose by saving the energy. That will result in lesser consumption of natural resources that are necessary for electricity.
Nature has always given the best to humans. It is time for the humans to do something for the well of environment. Collective efforts for energy saving will certainly show good results. If all the natural resources will get ended then it will be the end of life. So, be aware and start doing efforts in the right direction.
It is essential to maintain the balance of the environment otherwise situation can get quite destructive for the whole world. Using the devices for energy saving is certainly a wise move and all people should adapt it.

But since there's not a white, I have no idea which is neutral. I tried hooking it up as pictured, but only the red wire had any power (and the switch wouldn't work).
If I put the red in "line" and what was in "line" instead into "load", I at least get the led on the switch powered but the lights don't actually work.
I can confirm at least that (from the picture of the new outlet) the red and "line" wires are in the same sheathing from the wall.
Any guidance would be appreciated!

Mobile Platform for Multiplexed Detection and Differentiation of Disease-Specific Nucleic Acid Sequences, Using Microfluidic Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification and Smartphone Detection (Collaboration, ongoing)
In a collaboration with University of Illinois, Dr. David Hirschberg contributed significantly to a recent publication in Analytical Chemistry involving the application of Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) to perform point-of-care diagnostics using a microfluidic chip. His role was the development of the LAMP assay for equine pathogen detection.
New tools are needed to enable rapid detection, identification, and reporting of infectious viral and microbial pathogens in a wide variety of point-of-care applications that impact human and animal health. We report the design, construction, and characterization of a platform for multiplexed analysis of disease-specific DNA sequences that utilizes a smartphone camera as the sensor in conjunction with a hand-held cradle that interfaces the phone with a silicon-based microfluidic chip embedded within a credit-card-sized cartridge. Utilizing specific nucleic acid sequences for four equine respiratory pathogens as representative examples, we demonstrated the ability of the system to utilize a single 15 μL droplet of test sample to perform selective positive/negative determination of target sequences, including integrated experimental controls, in approximately 30 min. Our approach utilizes loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) reagents predeposited into distinct lanes of the microfluidic chip, which when exposed to target nucleic acid sequences from the test sample, generates fluorescent products that when excited by appropriately selected light emitting diodes (LEDs), are visualized and automatically analyzed by a software application running on the smartphone microprocessor. The system achieves detection limits comparable to those obtained by laboratory-based methods and instruments. Assay information is combined with the information from the cartridge and the patient to populate a cloud-based database for epidemiological reporting of test results.


Many of the batteries we use are rechargeable if you own a battery charger. It pays to own a charger rather than replace the batteries on a regular basis. Some batteries, like those found in vehicles, will need a recharge now and again, especially once they have a little age on them. But, battery chargers are available for many other items aside from the battery in the vehicle. It is ideal to own a battery charger or two to ensure that you are never without the power that you need in the products that you want to use.
Battery Charger Repairs Available
Already own a charger but it seems not to work properly? Maybe you need the device repaired. Just like any other time that you own, problems can occur with the charger. Most of the issues are minor issues that can be easily repaired. More Often than not, the charger can be repaired by a professional so there is plenty of life left in the unit. Most issues are minor. It takes a professional to inspect the charger to determine the cause of the problem and to make repair.
Types of Battery Chargers
Many types of battery chargers murphysboro il exist. There are chargers for any item that uses a lithium ion battery. You can find chargers that recharge the battery in your cell phone, computer, iPod, and tons of other items. There are also chargers for larger items. The type of charger that you choose determines the cost, the durability and the lifetime you can expect from the unit. Keep in mind that chargers are made by many brands and come in a variety of models. It is important to compare the options to find the charger that is most feasible to your needs.


Here we will see how to implement three tier architecture(also known as n-tier architecture) in asp.net application.Three tier architecture is a well known architecture in software development and you can implement it in web based as well desktop applications.
Three tier architecture basically means dividing your project into three layers
1) User Interface Layer [UI] (Also known as Application Layer or Presentation Layer)
2) Business Access Layer [BAL] (Also known as Business Logic Layer)
3) Data Access Layer [DAL]
The advantage of this functionality is it makes a logical separation of components so if in near future we want to replace / change our database we need to change only data layer or if we need to change user interface we need to change only user interface layer and rest remains the same.


As technology advanced, projectors became more and more easily available and budget friendly. What was once used in cinemas can now accommodate classrooms, corporate meetings or even home cinemas. However, as with any purchase, it is important to know of a few factors before venturing out to buy a new projector. There is a wide variety of them on the market, but maybe some would be better suited to your needs than others, as there is no “one size fits all” and each projector comes equipped with different features that you may or may not need.
After you figured out a few things in order to make a confident buy, such as your budget, the room size, the kind of lighting the room has, and what extra features you might want the projectors to have, then it’s time to delve deeper and understand some technicalities when it comes to the gadgets. In addition, if you’re looking to get a projector only for a short amount of time or you have a single project that you need it for, then instead of buying one maybe renting a projector would be better for you. Projectors are available to rent, such as those offered by Hartford Rentals.
Nowadays, projectors come in three types: LCD, LED and DLP, each coming with different advantages. Back in the day, CRT projectors were common, but they were bulky and had low light output, among other issues, and are no longer commonly used. The technology that projectors use can be either transmissive or reflective. A DLP projector has mirrors in order to direct the light in an image, thus it is considered to be reflective. On the other hand, LCD projectors are passing light through the panels, as opposed to bouncing it away, and are considered to be a transmissive medium. Lastly, LED projectors are named for the light source, and not for the type of technology they use.
The technology that LCD projectors use is more reliable and established than film projectors. They have no moving parts (as opposed to DLP projectors) and are generally more budget friendly. They support setups in large rooms where a bigger projection distance might be needed, as they are compatible with lens shifts and zoom lenses. Thus, LCD projectors are suited for home cinema projects.
DLP Projectors need less maintenance than LCD, as they have a sealed and filter-free chip design, meaning that dust won’t settle on it and it won’t cause an image spot. In addition, the projectors are virtually immune to color decay. They are not subject to misalignment, which is something that can occur in LCD projects that have a three-panel design.
The LEDs within an LED projector have a longer life-span that traditional projector lamps, lasting up to 10 or even 20,000 hours, compared to the 1 to 5,000 hours. This can be an advantage in multimedia setups, as replacing lamps can be quite an expense. They are energy efficient and don’t need to warm-up or cool-down, and they are also much quieter.

Secure Your Data with Hybrid Encryption and Decryption method used by banking sector
Today , Data play major roles in each nad every business sectors. But in general if we are talking about more security then, we thought about banking security about your data.
I am going to reveal the banking hybrid security system. so keep patent and try to understand each and every thing about security because hybrid contains AES as well as RSA algorithm. To understand Hybrid you must know both the algorithm well. If you have limited knowledge of AES and RSA then you must have to visit phpclassroom.
Encryption is the process of encoding information. This process converts the original representation of the information, known as plaintext, into an alternative form known as ciphertext.
Decryption is the process by which encrypted data converted into original form with help of secret key or password It decodes the encrypted information so that an authorized user can only decrypt the data because decryption requires a secret key or password.
Types of Cryptography Techniques:
1.Symmetric Key Cryptography
Through this cryptography both the sender and the receiver utilize a common key for message encryption and decryption.
Symmetric keys are fast but sharing of they public key is difficult.
Examples: AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), DES, Triple DES, RC2, RC4, RC5, and so on..
2.Asymmetric Key Cryptography
A pair of keys is used to encrypt and decrypt data. Encryption is done with a public key(*.pem), and decryption is done with a private key(*.pem). The terms “public key” and “private key” are not interchangeable.
Asymmetric keys can ensure secure key distribution, but it uses a lot of resources. It is also quite slow and involves heavy mathematical operations.
Examples: RSA, DSA, PKCs, Elliptic Curve techniques, and so on
A cryptographic hash function is an algorithm that takes an arbitrary amount of data input—a credential—and produces a fixed-size output of enciphered text called a hash value, or just “hash.”. The hash function is also considered as a mathematical equation that takes seed (numeric input) and produces an output that is commonly referred to as a hash or message digest. This system operates in a one-way manner and does not require any key. It is also considered to be the foundation of modern cryptography.
Examples: Digest 5 (MD5), SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm), SHA128 and SHA256, and so on.
A hybrid cryptography is one which combines the convenience of a public-key cryptography with the efficiency of a symmetric-key cryptography. Public-key cryptography are convenient in that they do not require the sender and receiver to share a common secret in order to communicate securely. The approach takes advantage of public-key cryptography for sharing keys and the speed of the symmetric encryption for encrypting messages.
Steps for Encryption
- Generate 16 digit random number. Say Randnum.
- Encrypt Randnum using RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding and encode using Base64. as
- Perform AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding encryption on request payload using Randnum as key.
- iv- initialisation vector. as encryptedData.
- Now client may choose to send IV in request from one of below two options.
- Send IV as a part of encryptedData itself.
bytes iv = IV;
bytes cipherText = symmetrically encrypted Bytes (step3)
bytes concatB = iv + cipherText;
encryptedData = B64Encode(concatB);
7. Perform AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding encryption on DATA using Randnum as key and Base64encoded Randnum as IV as ENCR_DATA.
Steps for Decryption
- Get the IV- Base64 decode the encryptedData and get first 16 bytes and rest is encrypted response.
- bytes IV= getFirst16Bytes(Base64Decode(encryptedData) )
- Decrypt encryptedKey using algorithm (RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding) and Client’s private key.
- Decrypt the response using algorithm (AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding).
- Ignore first 16 bytes of response, as it contains IV.


Understanding how many wild dogs are present in an area is an important piece of information necessary to guide population control measures. Many studies use passive infrared camera traps to monitor population numbers, assuming that the estimates obtained through these cameras are robust and representative of actual numbers. However it is clear that dingoes avoid cameras – some stare into the lens, while others walk around the sensor field and therefore avoid triggering the camera. This project will address a simple question – can we alter camera trap position to increase the likelihood of ‘trapping’ camera-wary dingoes?

The Role Of An AC Capacitor In An HVAC System
An AC capacitor is an integral component of your HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system, playing a critical role in the efficient operation of your air conditioner. Technically, it’s an electrical component that stores and releases electrical energy, functioning somewhat like a rechargeable battery.
Capacitors are used in various types of motors that run within your HVAC system, primarily in the compressor, the blower motor, and the outside fan. Each of these motors requires a surge of energy to start up, and it’s the capacitor’s job to provide this boost. Additionally, run capacitors help maintain a consistent power supply to keep the motor running smoothly. Their ability to store and release energy quickly makes them indispensable in the rapid start-stop cycles of air conditioning units.
The role of the capacitor in your HVAC system is twofold: starting and running. The start capacitor gives the motor a jolt of energy to get it up and running, while the run capacitor continuously supplies energy to keep it going. Over time, capacitors can lose their ability to hold a charge, leading to HVAC system malfunctions such as the air conditioner not blowing cold air or not turning on at all.
This is why understanding their function and health is crucial for homeowners. A failing capacitor not only affects the comfort level in your home but can also lead to more significant issues with your HVAC system. By ensuring your capacitors are in good working order, you contribute to the overall efficiency and longevity of your air conditioning system.
Locating the AC Capacitor
Locating the AC capacitor in your air conditioning system is a task that requires a bit of familiarity with the unit’s components. Typically, the capacitor is housed within the outdoor unit of your AC system, known as the condenser. To find it, first ensure that the power to your AC unit is completely turned off for safety. Then, remove the access panel on the condenser unit; this usually involves unscrewing a few bolts.
Inside, you’ll find the capacitor, which is often cylindrical in shape and may be either metal or plastic. It’s generally situated close to the electrical controls and is connected by several wires. It’s important to note that in some systems, particularly in split AC units or window air conditioners, the capacitor may be located in a different part of the unit, so always refer to your specific model’s manual for guidance.
Note: When locating the capacitor, it’s crucial to exercise caution and adhere to safety protocols. Even with the power off, capacitors store a charge and can be dangerous if mishandled.
If you’re not comfortable or familiar with electrical components, it’s highly recommended to seek professional assistance. Additionally, it’s useful to know the type of capacitor your system uses, as AC units typically employ either a start capacitor, which gives the motor a boost to start, or a run capacitor, which maintains a steady energy supply to keep the motor running.

Lumosity Wins Competitive Grant
Posted on April 1, 2011
Lumosity was recently selected for a highly competitive Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant to study the efficacy of the Brain Trainer iPhone app for enhancing cognition and brain function. The award will present Lumosity with the opportunity to work collaboratively with Dr. Adam Gazzaley and his laboratory to measure the effects of training with Lumosity’s mobile app on brain activity. Dr. Gazzaley is Director of the Neuroscience Imaging Center at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and will be scanning participants before and after training using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) — a technique that assesses brain function by measuring blood flow and metabolism.
Previous studies of training with Lumosity.com have shown a range of benefits that include enhancements in cognitive function and frontal lobe activity in childhood survivors of cancer; enhancement in visual attention in older adults with mild cognitive impairment; and enhancements in attention, memory and speed of processing in healthy, middle aged adults. This new study represents an exciting opportunity to measure the benefits of cognitive enhancement with the Brain Trainer iPhone app using the very latest, cutting-edge brain imaging techniques, partnering with one of the leaders worldwide in this field of research. This research will be supported by the SBIR program at the Office of Naval Research, which seeks to spur small business innovation through research.
This is just another example of the serious science going into Lumosity. We use everything we learn in our cutting-edge research program to make the most effective and efficient cognitive training possible.

Authentication means making sure that something is what it claims to be. E.g., in online banking, you want to make sure that the remote computer is actually your bank, and not someone pretending to be your bank. The purpose of 802.1x is to accept or reject users who want full access to a network using 802.1x. It is a security protocol that works with 802.11 wireless networks such as 802.11g and 802.11b, as well as with wired devices.
All NETGEAR ProSafe Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches support this authentication.
NETGEAR access points with full WPA (WPA Enterprise) support 802.1x, e.g., WG302, FWG114P and
Details of 802.1x Authentication
The main parts of 802.1x Authentication are:
A supplicant, a client end user, which wants to be authenticated.
An authenticator (an access point or a switch), which is a "go between", acting as proxy for the end user, and restricting the end user's communication with the authentication server.
An authentication server (usually a RADIUS server), which decides whether to accept the end user's request for full network access.
In a wireless network, 802.1x is used by an access point to implement WPA. In order to connect to the access point, a wireless client must first be authenticated using WPA.
In a wired network, switches use 802.1x in a wired network to implement port-based authentication. Before a switch forwards packets through a port, the attached devices must be authenticated. After the end user logs off, the virtual port being using is changed back to the unauthorized state.
A benefit of 802.1x is the switches and the access points themselves do not need to know how to authenticate the client. All they do is pass the authentication information between the client and the authentication server. The authentication server handles the actual verification of the client’s credentials. This lets 802.1x support many authentication methods, from simple user name and password, to hardware token, challenge and response, and digital certificates.
802.1x uses EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) to facilitate communication from the supplicant to the authenticator and from the authenticator to the authentication server.
EAP supports various authentication methods. As a user seeking authentication, you just need to use a method supported by the authentication server. As an administrator, you need to select which methods your server will use. Selection is beyond the scope of this article (and outside the scope of free NETGEAR support), however, the material in the Microsoft article will give administrators a solid grounding. Read More ( )

To physically set up the router:
- Remove any cables connecting the modem to the PC.
- Connect the router to the modem: Plug one end of an Ethernet cable to the modem and the other end into the isolated port on the router. The isolated port is yellow or slightly set apart from the rest of the router ports.
- Connect the router to the PC: Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the PC's Ethernet port, then the other end into any one of the four LAN ports on the router. If there are stickers blocking the LAN ports, remove them.
- Plug in the router's power adapter and check the Power
light to ensure that the router is on.
Note : Older Netgear routers and gateways shipped with an installation CD. Newer router models do not ship with a CD.
Netgear does not replace lost or broken installation CDs, because the management software built into the routers and gateways has a Setup Wizard that serves the same function. There is no need to download anything to replace the CD - everything you need is in your router. This is true even if :
- The CD that shipped with the router has been lost or cannot be read, or
- Errors occur when running the configuration program, or
- The router is not connected to a computer using the Windows operating system.
- Connect your router to a computer by plugging one end of an Ethernet Cable into any of the four LAN ports on the back of your router.

The magnet Group of LASA for over 35 years produces superconducting magnets for particle accelerators and detectors, participating as the main protagonist or as a partner to large international projects in the world of frontier research for accelerators.
The group's expertise is for the study, design, construction and testing of superconducting magnets, with consolidated experience on: electromagnetic design, mechanical, cryogenic, diagnostics, quench protection, etc.
Currently the magnet group is involved in important international programs:
- High Luminosity LHC, to increase, since 2021, the luminosity of the LHC beams (co-financed by the EC - FP7 HiLumi).
- Eucard2 (funded by the EC - FP7) for the development of magnets using high-temperature superconductors, for future accelerators.
- EuroCirCol & Future Circolar Collider (FCC), the study of a new Large Hadron Collider (circumference length 100 km) which will continue the high-energy physics after the LHC and HiLumi LHC.
The basic and applied research in the field of superconducting magnets is driven by the need to get more and more intense and precise magnetic fields to maintain the trajectory of accelerated particles (protons or ions) to the extreme energies of the great circular accelerators or colliders.
The magnet assembly of LASA is currently composed of 4 researchers, 6 engineers, 1 PhD student and a variable number of students in physics who perform their thesis (experimental or computational) on our research activities. The LASA laboratory hosts important equipment, with a broad spectrum of capabilities, such as measurements of critical currents up to 30,000 A in the presence of high magnetic fields, thermal conductivity measurements and mechanical properties at cryogenic temperatures and much more.


Firmware upgrades are very important and will help with stability of the system as well as upgrade playback options and add other features. You can find the latest firmware here: Sony Play Station 3 firmware update.
For this guide there are a few requirements, all of which you should own or you would not be looking here. A storage media device, either a USB flash drive or a Memory Stick, SD Memory Card, or Compact Flash card.
Select Update via Storage Media and the system will search the drive for the PUP file.
PUP file downloaded from the Playstation System Software site to update my PS3? Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Copying it to the root of a USB flash drive doesn't seem sufficient. Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?
Users must then boot up the Play Station 3 in safe mode and load the update onto it manually.
Sony’s full instructions on how to install firmware update 4.46 can be found below.


Be it our medical records, our political or sexual inclinations or our financial situation – there is information about us that is and should remain private or secret.
But: With the “right” software, our smartphone and tablet can be monitored and their cameras and microphones controlled remotely – child’s play, for anyone. Not only data-collecting companies or criminals can use our cell phones to spy on our activities and conversations.
There are numerous spyware programs available on the Internet for the smartphone, making it easy for prying eyes to monitor and spy on us via our cell phone. Such programs allow photos, videos and sound recordings to be taken or messages, e-mails and chats to be read without us noticing.
Personal and sensitive information on NFC cards and ID cards with RFID chips can be stolen in a matter of seconds with a simple app. Once the smartphone with the app installed is held close to our NFC-enabled ec card, credit card, health card, smartphone or ID card, the information stored on the RFID chip can be read out unnoticed within seconds (skimming).
Cover the cameras of your smartphone, tablet and webcam with the webcam cover and securely store your wireless devices, cards and IDs in RF shielding bags, wallets and RFID protective cases to protect against espionage, phone tracking and data theft.
The products presented here help you protect your privacy, your data and your property.


In this exercise, a transistor (type NPN) is used to amplify power to an LED. On the transistor itself, its “collector” is connected to PWR, “base” to a momentary pushbutton (type SPST), and its “emitter” to an LED.
In a nutshell, the “collector” provides a steady source of PWR. The “emitter” can only send power out when the “base” is given power. When the pushbutton is pressed, it allows power to go to the “base”, which causes power to amplify and be sent out via the “emitter”. The transistor acts as an amplifying switch.
If it was a a type PNP transistor, the “collector” would be connected to GND, the “emitter” to PWR, and the “base” to GND. In order to have power go from the emitter to the collector, the base must have negative voltage.


Often times there are many solutions to a problem and choosing the best or optimal solution depends on how it performs and the resources it consumes.The performance and efficiency of a program or an algorithm is measured by two complexity measures, time complexity and space complexity.
For this analysis lets consider an example of adding all the values in a list using a loop.
total = 0
for val in int_list:
total = total + val
- It is the amount of time taken by the algorithm to complete its process as a function of its input length, n. It is not the execution time of the machine on which the algorithm is running on.
- To calculate time complexity, it is assumed that a constant time is taken to execute one operation and the total operations for an input length of n are calculated.
- It is commonly expressed using asymptotic notations, Big O - O(n), Big Theta and Big Omega with Big O being often used.
- In the above example, line 2 gets executed one time i.e. O(1) and line 3 is loop and line 4 gets executed n times i.e. O(n). Since the worst case is taken the time complexity here is O(n).
- Space complexity is a function, describing the amount of memory or space an algorithm takes in terms of the amount of input to the algorithm.
- It includes both space used by the input and any auxiliary extra space used by the algorithm while it is being executed.
- It is commonly expressed using Big O notations - O(n). If the input vary in size say an array, the space complexity depends on the size of the array and hence cannot be less than O(n). For fixed size inputs, the complexity will be constant O(1).
- In the above example, we need space to store the result total and lets say 4 bytes and we need to store the input which could be n * 4 bytes. So the worst case is taken and the space complexity here would be O(n).
Big-O Complexity Chart
In general, time complexity is more important than the space complexity as time taken to compute cannot be shortened easily and compute cost more with storage and memory getting cheap now a days.
