Notes for SG-2 Recently started working in a Study Group to prepare for VB.NET Certification. We are using Developing Web Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic.NET and Microsoft Visual C#.NET. In Chapter 5 I needed to attach the Contacts.MDF database to my SQL Server 2000 Database. Here is the command that I used: EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname = 'contacts',     @physname = 'c:\MCSDWebApps\Chapter05\contacts.mdf' 11:19:33 AM    trackback []     Articulate []

Ten Emerging Technologies That Will Change the World. I ran a similar column on June 1, 2002, "Eight Technologies That Will Change the World." This new list has some things in common, like nanotechnology or quantum computing applications. Some are different, like the "Software Assurance." In this special section, Technology Review’s editors have identified 10 emerging technologies that we predict will have a tremendous influence in the near future. For each, we’ve chosen a researcher or research team whose work and vision is driving the field. The profiles, on the following pages, offer a sneak preview of the technology world in the years and decades to come. Here is the full list. Wireless Sensor Networks Injectable Tissue Engineering Nano Solar Cells Mechatronics Grid Computing Molecular Imaging Nanoimprint Lithography Software Assurance Glycomics Quantum Cryptography You also can read the print version (15 pages).
