The IEEE claims to produce 30 percent of the world's literature in electrical/electronic engineering, has over 370,000 members, and holds more than 450 IEEE sponsored or cosponsored conferences worldwide each year.

education

chek your Education and training in the university, studing electronic ingineering
Electronics engineers typically possess an academic degree with a major in electronic engineering. The length of study for such a degree is usually three or four years and the completed degree may be designated as a Bachelor of Engineering, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Applied Science, or Bachelor of Technology depending upon the university. Many UK universities also offer Master of Engineering (MEng) degrees at undergraduate level.
The degree generally includes units covering physics, chemistry, mathematics,projectmanagement and specific topics in electrical engineering. Initially such topics cover most, if not all, of the subfields of electronic engineering. Students then choose to specialize in one or more subfields towards the end of the degree.
Some electronics engineers also choose to pursue a postgraduate degree such as a Master of Science (MSc), Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering (PhD), or an Engineering Doctorate (EngD). The Master degree is being introduced in some European and American Universities as a first degree and the differentiation of an engineer with graduate and postgraduate studies is often difficult. In these cases, experience is taken into account. The Master's degree may consist of either research, coursework or a mixture of the two. The Doctor of Philosophy consists of a significant research component and is often viewed as the entry point to academia.
In most countries, a Bachelor's degree in engineering represents the first step towards certification and the degree program itself is certified by a professional body. After completing a certified degree program the engineer must satisfy a range of requirements (including work experience requirements) before being certified. Once certified the engineer is designated the title of Professional Engineer (in the United States, Canada and South Africa), Chartered Engineer or Incorporated Engineer (in the United Kingdom, Ireland, India and Zimbabwe), Chartered Professional Engineer (in Australia) or European Engineer (in much of the European Union).
Fundamental to the discipline are the sciences of physics and mathematics as these help to obtain both a qualitative and quantitative description of how such systems will work. Today most engineering work involves the use of computers and it is commonplace to use computer-aided design programs when designing electronic systems. Although most electronic engineers will understand basic circuit theory, the theories employed by engineers generally depend upon the work they do. For example, quantum mechanics and solid state phisics might be relevant to an engineer working on VLSI but are largely irrelevant to engineers working with macroscopic electrical systems.

The sistem of the 21's.

Hey guys!

This is a 21-century self-discovery, this is the Particle Accelerator, is a device that uses electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to high speeds and to contain them in well-defined beams. An ordinary CRT television set is a simple form of accelerator. There are two basic types: electrostatic and oscillating field. 

In the early 21th century, cyclotrons were commonly referred to as atom smashers. Despite the fact that modern colliders actually propel subatomic particles—atoms themselves now being relatively simple to disassemble without an accelerator—the term persists in popular usage when referring to particle accelerators in general.

I put this video with this information in my Electronic and Electrical engineering zone, because those new inventions have been developing by engineers with knowledge in electronics and other topics that are directly related with that; this is the age of developing and progress and we (engineers) are the future, because we're gonna change the world with many technological advances and othes studies.

Thank you!

Enjoy.

The technology back to the Stolen Vehicle Assistance

Hey guys!

Here is a very interesting video of a TV show called "¿How do they do?", this program is pefect, because here people who work in many of the sistems that the Car's computers need explain very well everything about programation and everything about sistems and how they create that too, that is very interesting.

Enjoy and have a good time.

Thank you.

Hi !!

Biofuels, is it a solution or fantasy?

The crops that are developed today to produce alternatives to petroleum-based fuels emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than can be absorbed by plants.
The scientists found that in the case of some crops would require several centuries to pay for "carbon debt" generated. These environmental costs do not take into account the additional destruction of the environment, such as loss of biodiversity caused when removing areas of forest.

 

Share What is a barrel of oil?

 
A barrel of oil is a unit of volume equal to 42 U.S. gallons, which, in turn, equivalent to approximately 158.9873 liters. Depending on the density of oil, the mass of a barrel of oil is between 119 kg and 151 kg.
The crude measure is particular to the oil industry. Although created in the United States of America, has become a global standard, but in other continents is also common to hear references to the volume of oil in cubic meters or tonnes, the latter regularly used by shipping companies that transport oil. Still, most companies and countries make all its production figures, exports, consumption, etc., In barrels to make their reports, since virtually all global oil analysis are done using this measure.

We know that biofuels will largely involve the production of ethanol from plants such as diesel fuel substitute derived from fossil fuels. Many of the current sources for these "new" fuels are agricultural products now serve as a very important world power such as corn, sugar cane, oil palm, cassava up soy and rapeseed. It is easy to see that the crisis can be large, since according to estimates more than a third of all agricultural land should be converted to biofuel production to its participation in the transport fuel consumption to increase to ten percent.
This is much space and we know the strength of the fuels in terms of economic impact is concerned, then it is more profitable to produce fuel crops for food, sale of production is ensured. And what happens with the rotation and the weakening of the land for the production of monocultures. Be exhausted and their subsequent rehabilitation is almost impossible. But some will say if it is a source of clean energy and safer because it has to end, the crops are renewable. But what consequences? The expansion of large-scale monoculture leads to destruction of forests, savannas and wildlife, high prices of land and food and directly impacts on rural communities. On the other hand, the rising food prices will be inevitable, and we're seeing, and is just beginning, but said Peru's President Alan Garcia is putting the food outside the limits of the poor. "
What is unclear is whether biofuels are profitable. If we have to sacrifice arable land or virgin forest to obtain in large quantities economic and environmental damage may be much higher than the benefit. According to researchers and environmental advocates this is intuitive and based on studies on carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere over a period of time concluding that the reforestation of an equivalent area of land can absorb two to nine times dioxide of carbon emissions would be avoided if the area is devoted to producing biofuels during the same period of time so that reforestation and forest conservation are also advantages, such as creating more jobs, growth and conservation biodiversity, desertification and mitigating regional climate regulation.
So where is the fantasy. To explain this we will transcribe conclusions of the biologist Jeffrey Dukes, who said: "The fossil fuels we burn in one year were produced from organic matter containing 44 x 1081 grams of carbon, which is to say containing about 400 times the primary energy corresponding to the net productivity of the planet's biomass. Or to put it colloquially, every year we burn the equivalent of primary energy production of four centuries of plant and animal productivity of our planet. The idea that simply we can replace fossil fuels and lead extraordinary energy density through the use of renewable energy belongs to the genre of science fiction. "
Then we have that the expansion of crops to produce biofuels leads to the transmission of vast amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and contributes nothing to stop climate change or global warming, many scientists have produced damning evidence, which suggests that biofuels  could be one of the largest environmental fraud, because actually worsen global warming by contributing to emissions of carbon dioxide produced by humans who are supposed to be reduced.
