What is NFC and what NFC tags do??- Explained

NFC stands for Near Field Communication, It is a new technology or standards for smartphones to establish radio communication for sharing the data by touching them together or bringing them into close proximity,usually no more than a few centimeters.

NFC as you heard is a very nice technology for sharing the data very easily between two NFC compatible and enabled devices. Like Bluetooth and WiFi, it's a wireless radio communications standard. It is a new fed in smartphones for easy and quick data sharing. Using NFC (Near Field Communication), you can transfer information between your phone and other NFC devices, such as phones, NFC tags or payment devices. For example, you can share web addresses, contacts, phone numbers, music tracks, videos or photos. NFC is RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) based technology.

Now lets talk about NFC tags, what are NFC tags?
NFC (near field communication) is a wireless technology which allows for the transfer of data such as text or numbers between two NFC enabled devices. NFC tags, for example stickers or wristbands, contain small microchips with little aerials which can store a small amount of information for transfer to another NFC device, such as a mobile phone.
There are Different tags comes with different data types to store, and comes in different sizes too, You can store variety of data and information in tags. Usually, this information is stored in a specific data format (NDEF - NFC data exchange format) so that it can be reliably read by most devices and mobile phones.
Now, talking about the power of NFC tags. The NFC tags do not use any batteries of their own, They get their power from just being near a powered NFC device, for example a mobile phone. They use magnetic induction.

Types of NFC tags
There are four types of different tags, all are having different transfer speeds and different capacities.

  1. Type 1- This tag type is read and re-write capable. The memory of the tags can be write protected. Memory size can be between 96 bytes and 2 Kbytes. Communication Speed with the tag is 106 kbit/sec.
  2. Type 2- This tag type is read and re-write capable. The memory of the tags can be write protected. Memory size can be between 48 bytes and 2 Kbytes. Communication Speed with the tag is 106 kbit/sec.
  3. Type 3- This tag type is pre-configured at manufacture to be either read and re-writable, or read-only. Memory size can be up to 1 Mbyte. Communication Speed with the tag is 212 kbit/sec. 
  4. Type 4- This tag type is pre-configured at manufacture to be either read and re-writable, or read-only. Memory size can be up to 32 KBytes; For the communication with tags APDUs according to ISO 7816-4 can be used. Communication speed with the tag is 106 kbit/sec. 

You can also buy a NFC tag and can write customized data to them. Type 1 and Type 2 tags can be written to multiple times. These tags can also be permanently locked, or encrypted, so that no one can manipulate the data. Type 3 and Type 4 tags can only be written to once, like a CD or a DVD, and they lack the security of types 1 and 2. They differ in physical sizes too.

It is not too popular in India, but soon as the time changes, technology always emerges. So, we will soon be having the all NFC equipped railway stations, advertisements, airports etc. to make the life of people easier. By NFC you not need to wait in long ques to pay in Shopping retails and megastores like Bigbazaar, shopper stops etc .

School Article: Creating a Webpage in HTML with useful tags.

"Hypertext Markup Language" is a markup language used to create webpages and documents on World Wide Web. HTML tells web browser,what to show and how to show.It is founded by Tim Berners Lee in 1980.

Introduction
HTML is a standardised language that enables a web browser to display a page in a particular fashion. It defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of tags and attributes, Special formatting is applied through specialised tags. For this reason it is called Tag or Markup language. HTML is a way of Incorporating text,graphics, sound and videos in all in one document called web pages.

HTML is defined using the SGML(Standard Generalised Markup Language).In 1980,SGML-a markup language was developed to create documents that could be displayed consistently on computers using different hardware and operating system.

So, Now lets take the topics serial wise to know about HTML.

Concept of HTML
HTML is based on two concepts:
1. Hypertext: It provides a way to create a link between information in the same document as well as in different documents.
2. Markup Language: Markup Language refers to the special tags that are a part of HTML document. These tags specify how the document content should be displayed.

What are HTML tags??
A HTML tag is made up of keyword written between two arrowheads <and> and inserted within different pairs of document.
There are two types of tags:
1. Empty Tags: It consist of single opening tag and doesn't require to close. Ex- <hr>
2. Container tags: It consists of pair of opening tag and closing tag. Ex- If i need to write Hello in  bold letters than <b>hello</b>.

Attributes
These are the special value added to a tag for more information. For ex:- suppose we want to add image in a webpage, so we have to use <img> tag and with that to specify fully, which image we have to use and from where we have to use, then the tag is <img src="a.jpg">






Now I hope you understood the basic concepts of HTML and Now, we will look into creating a webpage with useful tags. Follow the step by step tutorial on the presentation.

So, Here I am having a nice tutorial for you all to install the Windows 8 in a virtual Machine.
So let me clarify some nice terms to your brain like Virtual Machine. So, What is Virtual Machine?
A virtual machine (VM) is a simulation of a machine (abstract or real) that is usually different from the target machine (where it is being simulated on). Virtual machines may be based on specifications of a hypothetical computer or emulate the architecture and functioning of a real world computer. 

Now, I will guide you step by step and help you in installing windows 8 in Virtual Machine, so lets follow the steps:-
Step 1- Seek to Requirements.
To Install windows 8 in a Virtual Machine, your machine should have (i) at least 2 GB RAM, If 4 GB or more its good. (ii) Dual Core or any latest technology processor and 1 GB graphics card for smooth graphics rendering.
Step 2- Start Installing the required tools.
Now, We will start installing the required tools to run windows 8 on Virtual Machine. So We will install the very popular Virtual Machine, VMware player 5.0 to run windows 8. To download follow the link-http://www.filehippo.com/download_vmware_player/. and Secondly, Most important we have to keep Windows 8 image(.iso file) ready to install on Vmware.
Step 3- Start Installing windows 8 on VMware Player.
  • Open the VMware and and select "Create a New Virtual Machine".
  • Select "Installer disc image file (iso) and click "Browse" then navigate to the location where Windows 8 ISO is downloaded/located, select it and click "Open".
  • Click Next and insert the "Windows product key" if you have one; if you don't have one just leave the fields empty and click "Next" and validate the prompt.
  • Type a new name for "Virtual machine name" or leave it as is.
  • Select the location of the virtual machine and make sure you have at least 16GB for the 32-bit Windows 8 and 20GB for the 64-bit Windows 8 free space in the selected location -- 30GB is better to avoid running out of free space.
  • Select "Store virtual disk as a single file" to keep the virtual HDD in a single file and optimize performance then click "Next".
  • At the next screen click on "Customize Hardware..." go to "Memory" -- Microsoft recommends a minimum of 1GB for 32-bit Windows 8 and 2GB for 64-bit Windows 8, but you should double the minimum requirements for a smoother operation.
  • At the "Processors" dialog box select the "Number of processor cores" available for your CPU.
  • Click "Close" then "Finish" to complete the virtual machine creation process and install Windows 8.

You will be offered a prompt for "VMware Tools for Windows 2000 and later" where you must click "Download and Install." If there are any devices that can be attached to the virtual machine VMware Player will notify you during the install process. After the process is completed you have to install windows 8 in VMware Player and after that you can use it and enjoy.
