Our Culture And National Identity

Our Culture And National Identity Our country, Ghana is a multi ethnic, multilingual and multicultural state: it contains many ethnic groups, many languages and therefore, many cultures. There are several problems generated by the ethnically and culturally plural structure of our nation. One problem is how to weld the consistent ethnic groups into a new,certainly, larger socio-political association for the welfare and benefits of all the groups, how to create a unity out of plurality; in short, how to integrate the constituent ethnic groups into one nation: this is the problem of nation – building, which is expected to result in national integration.

IBM Developed A Chip To speedup Internet Services Using Light

IBM Developed A Chip To speedup Internet Services Using Light IBM says it has developed a chip that makes it easier to shuttle data about via pulses of light instead of using electrical signals. The firm says it should offer a way to move large amounts of information between processors in computer servers at higher speeds than at present. These provide computing power and data used by apps and other net services. One third-party expert said the significance of the innovation was that it was much cheaper than other options. IBM New Chip Details of the development are to be presented at the International Electron Devices Meeting in San Francisco later. Optical connections The team behind the development said that using light, rather than the flow of electrons, to transmit data has two key advantages.Data can be sent longer distances between different parts of a server centre without the risk of losing information.Data transfer speeds are faster as light can be used to carry mo...
