Virtual (Computing) $101.96 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The word virtual has been applied to computing and information technology with various meanings. It is used of software systems that act as if they were hardware systems (virtual machine, virtual memory, virtual disk), of computergenerated simulations of reality (virtual reality), and of internet gaming environments wherein entire worlds are created (virtual world) or the real world is supplemented with virtual images (augmented reality). Other applications of the word are being found constantly in this fast expanding field, such as virtual community, virtual library, and virtual class. Early motivations for applying virtual to computers (i.e., virtualization) were sharing of actual devices by many users and coordination of multiple processes, as seen with the successful use of the virtual machine approach. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F. Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 144 Publication Date: 2011/03/31 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.02 x 0.34 inches |

Virtual Good $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Virtual goods are nonphysical objects that are purchased for use in online communities or online games. They have no intrinsic value and, by definition, are intangible. Virtual goods include such things as digital gifts and digital clothing for avatars. Virtual goods may be classified as services instead of goods. Sales of virtual goods are sometimes referred to as microtransactions. Virtual goods may be sold by companies that operate social networks, community sites or online games, such as massively multiplayer online roleplaying games and massively multiplayer online games. The first virtual goods to be sold were items for use in online games. Players would sell virtual goods, such as swords, coins and potions, in the informal sector without the authorization of the games operator. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.

Virtual Crime $66.91 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Virtual crime or ingame crime refers to a virtual criminal act that takes place in a massively multiplayer online game (MMOG), usually an MMORPG. The huge time and effort invested into such games can lead online crime to spill over into real world crime, and even blur the distinctions between the two. Some countries have introduced special police investigation units to cover such virtual crimes. South Korea is one such country and looked into 22,000 cases in the first six months of 2003.

Being Virtual $26.95 Thanks to the Internet, it has never been so easy to become the person of your wildest dreams. Immersive 3D worlds such as Second Life and THERE.com provide an escape route from the ordinary, into a virtual world where you have the power to mould your life in any way you please. Forget about walking, wheelchair users can fly. Pensioners wipe away the pains of age, discovering youthful exuberance and making young friends once more. No wonder it has become harder than ever to honestly answer the question: who am I? In Being Virtual, Davey Winder looks at how an increasing number of us are living part-real, part-virtual lives, and how it affects who we are. He looks at the opportunities and dangers that a virtual identity offers us, how we juggle our real and online lives, and what happens when one spills over into the other… He uses his own personal experiences to bring the issues to life, and backs them up with the real-life stories of others and testimony from the experts.  Along the way, he looks at some fascinating questions such as: Are you a virtual liar? What happens when our virtual and real worlds collide? Why will you talk to anyone online, but nobody on the train to work? Why do so many middle-aged men transform into teenage girls online? Is it possible to have any secrets in such a connected world? Being Virtual gives a glimpse into the future of human identity, and is a must-read for anyone who uses the Internet to enhance – or escape from – their ‘ordinary’ life. About the author Davey Winder has been a freelance journalist for 16 years, and is Contributing Editor of the best-selling IT magazine, PC Pro . He has picked up many awards including Technology Journalist of the Year and IT Security Journalist of the Year. A founder member of the Internet Society of England and author of more than 20 books, his blog can be found at:   http://happygeeknewmedia.blogspot.com/   |

The Virtual Future $99 The newest communication technologies are profoundly changing the world's politics, economies, and cultures, but the specific implications of online gameworlds remain mysterious. The Virtual Future employs theories and methods from social science to explore nine very different virtual futures: The Matrix Online, Tabula Rasa, Anarchy Online, Entropia Universe, Star Trek Online, EVE Online, Star Wars Galaxies, World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade, and The Chronicles of Riddick. Each presents a different picture of how technology and society could evolve in coming centuries, but one theme runs through all of them, the attempt to escape the Earth and seek new destinies among the stars. Four decades after the last trip to the moon, a new conception of spaceflight is emerging. Rather than rockets shooting humans across vast physical distances to sterile rocks that lack the resources to sustain life, perhaps robot space probes and orbiting telescopes will glean information about the universe, that humans can then experience inside computer-generated environments much closer to home. All nine of these fantastically rich multiplayer masterpieces have shown myriads of people that really radical alternatives to contemporary society could exist, and has served as a laboratory for examining the consequences. Each is a prototype of new social forms, a utopian subculture, and a simulation of technologies that have yet to be invented. They draw upon several different traditions of science fiction and academic philosophy, and they were created in several nations. By comparing these nine role-playing fantasies, we can better consider what kind of world we want to inhabit in the real future. |
