Abstract
This paper examines how the last decade of the past century has opened up an almost unbelievable world for the ordinary citizens of the world and how the internet has connected people and businesses across the globe. It looks at how this new-world of computers and high technology has created a virtual wonderland for criminals and how a new wave of crime has evolved involving computer hackers, computer viruses, identity theft, e-mail fraud and countless other high-tech crimes. It also discusses how the advent of technology has allowed for ease of maintaining order over high-tech transgressions with such developments as instantaneous court transcripts and global satellite monitoring to keep track of probationers.

From the Paper
"High-tech crime is a global problem, crossing the boundaries of countries around the world and making it difficult for law enforcement to find the source. The European Union has been taking steps during the last few years to "fight harmful and illegal content on the Internet, to protect intellectual property and personal data, to promote electronic commerce and the use of electronic signatures and to enhance the security of transactions" (EU pg). Agencies in the United States and Europe are setting up communication networks that will enable countries to share vital information regarding cyber-crime. EU Commissioner for Justice and Home Affairs considers cyber-crime a main priority to "establish an area of freedom, security and justice in Europe" (EU pg).
The Federal Bureau of Investigation provides links on its web site for consumers to report Internet fraud, as well as other consumer protection web sites that provide information regarding fraud protection (Internet pg)."

Abstract
The San Francisco division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) lists five major crimes that have increased due to technology advancement across the globe. These crimes include identity theft, child pornography, high technology crimes, industrial espionage and computer intrusion of the nation's "critical information, military and economic infrastructures" ("Technology", n.d.). Because of the continued advancements in computer technology the growth in the number of people that have access to information that can negatively impact those within the social order, as well as the foundation of information that supports the operation of businesses and the nation is evident. Therefore, individuals within criminal investigative departments and law enforcement have been tasked with developing methods of addressing these types of crime and ensuring that cyberspace is a safe environment for all who use it.

Abstract
The paper discusses how sociologists have examined and debated the causes of high youth crime rates for many years, and have identified various contributing factors such as dysfunctional families, moral decline in society, poverty, drugs, and failures in the educational and criminal justice systems. the paper reveals that in the United Kingdom, the criminal justice system has deserved much of the blame because of its mishandling of young offenders, but it also deserves credit for changing its approach to youth offenders through innovative Restorative Justice policies, which have succeeded in reducing youth crime rates to such an extent that they should be implemented in every country.

Abstract
This paper details the industry-wide problem of retaining employees in the high-technology sector, with an emphasis on the field of computer programming, and then outlines some measures that can be taken to encourage company loyalty. The paper also takes a look at a particular software development company and makes recommendations for applying these measures so that the company can attract and retain the programmers it requires.

From the Paper
"Retaining good staff is an issue in many organizations. The issue becomes even more significant in sectors where employees are in high demand. The issue becomes critical in sectors where employees provide the organization's major source of competitive advantage. These factors are both present in the computer programming sector, with computer programmers in high demand and with having the best computer programmers a major competitive advantage. The demand and the importance of computer programmers has meant that technology companies are all willing to pay top dollar for employees. This makes simply paying high rates not enough to attract and retain good employees. In addition, high-technology companies are active in recruiting employees, including luring employees away from other companies. These issues are the basis for the current problems being experienced at XYZ, a software development company. XYZ is currently a thriving company, with the business growing and with many new contracts in place. Unfortunately, this success is under threat because of problems in attracting and retaining computer programmers for product development. Without these computer programmers, the organization cannot provide its core services, making this a major issue for the company. To ensure that the company can complete current projects, and to ensure that the company can continue to successfully expand, it is critical that the company address this problem. This requires a consideration of what organizational changes can be made both to attract and to retain computer programmers."

The use and management of DNA evidence have developed into an important policy enterprise that will aide and advance law enforcement's impact in solving crime scenes by resolving court cases and crimes. The government has generated millions of dollars in federal funding to provide training, technical assistance to assist criminal justice practitioners in collecting, using, analyzing DNA evidence to solve cases. In my opinion, using DNA technology will help, besides solving cases, find out whether a..."

Abstract
The three authors discussed in this paper all present different visions of problems and issues confronting humanity in the high technology era. However, while Franklin tends to discuss the socio-economic implications of technology from a more generalized perspective - given her larger text with its wider thematic focus - both Drucker and Postman represent the high technology era in stark terms of "winners and losers".

Abstract
In looking at which countries have high and low crime rates, this paper investigates possible reasons for differences in crime rates. The author suggests that it may be that modern countries that function well, without such issues as widespread poverty or extended conflicts, may be able to focus more on issues such as crime prevention, and take more care to gather accurate statistics.

From the Paper
"According to information provided in class from the World Bank, the five countries with the highest crime rate per capita (as defined as attempts to commit a crime as well as crimes actually committed) were New Zealand, with 11,152.5 crimes per 100,000 citizens; Dominica with 10,763.01; Estonia with 10,242.8, Denmark, with 9,449.78; and Chile, with 9.275.91.

The five countries with the lowest rates of crime were Yemen, with 137.52; Azerbaijan, with 173.41; Papua New Guinea with 259.1; Georgia, with 299.14; and Armenia, with 316.8 (CIA, 2002)."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that with modern warfare, the tank has become an integral part in the air-land doctrine which gives an attacking army an all-out capability of mopping up the battlefield after air and sea strikes. The writer notes that tanks enable opposing forces to minimize casualties and preserve its infantries from massive attrition, since armor-to-armor battle could already determine the victor in the modern battlefield by merely showing the armor strength. The writer concludes that there is no doubt that tanks are here to stay and with the advent of emerging information technologies, these armored beasts can be integrated with high technology giving it other strategic, operational and tactical roles its founding fathers never dreamed could happen.

From the Paper
"Warfare has been with humankind since the dawn of its existence. As cave dwellers, they relied on sticks and stones not only to hunt and forage for food but to battle threats from vicious beasts and rival groups. The discovery of fire and the ability to create it improve man's means sustenance by learning not only to cook the food hunted and gathered but by using fire to ward of interlopers or burn adversaries. As man improves his tools, his ways and means of hunting and fighting became more sophisticated and the distance covered by his weapons of choice went further. From the hand-launched spear, the bow and arrow, and slingshot was developed giving the man-hunter the opportunity to attack his prey at a distance without compromising his position or at the safety of his hide."

Abstract
In 1985, when the high-technology revolution was hitting the mass market, some futurists projected that public education would increasingly form working partnerships with private-sector industries to train students for jobs. This paper investigates just how correct these predictions were. It sets forth the background of public-school-and-business cooperation in various areas of vocational and/or distributive education. The paper then discusses ways in which the structure of distributive education has shifted in recent years, with a view toward forecasting possible lines of future development.

From the Paper
"The National Society for Experiential Education (NSEE) is a facilitating organization that encourages businesses in many industries to offer internship opportunities to high school and college students, as well as to adult learners. In its School-to-Work Transitions program, on-the-job training is integrated with classroom instruction at both secondary and postsecondary levels and that "results in both academic credential and certification of mastery of work skills" (NSEE, 2000)."

Abstract
In this article, the writer explains that in general terms, police intelligence is utilized by police officials as a way of tracking and predicting crime and illegal activities in order to decrease or eliminate it. The writer discusses that since the advent of computer technology, police intelligence has grown at a rapid rate and is now used by major police organizations throughout the world, such as the FBI, Interpol and the British police system. One key component is the intelligence analyst, a highly-trained investigator that determines how, when, where, why, and who is committing certain crimes, and then offers recommendations on how to decrease or stop offences through strategic and tactical assessments. In this way, police organizations are able to monitor and predict crime via proactive investigation techniques. The writer notes that some of the sources utilized by these analysts include DNA databases, the Police National Computer System (PNCS), various detailed reports, intelligence from witnesses and informants, and the results of surveillance. The writer concludes that in today's world, police intelligence via the information and data retrieved by analysts is rapidly changing the way police organizations fight criminal activity.

From the Paper
"However, due to the absence of advanced technologies, the dossier system remained an integral part of law enforcement intelligence strategies for several more decades. In the 1970's, many law enforcement agencies like the FBI began to utilize low-
tech methods for storing, gathering, and transmitting information and data, but with the arrival of the 1980's, these low-tech methods were replaced by much more advanced technologies, such as computer-based storage and retrieval systems and an early form of the Internet which at the time was used mainly by academics. Since the early 1990's and because of the development of highly-sophisticated computer systems, law enforcement intelligence agencies can now link up via the world wide web to share data and information; they can also store vast amounts of data and facts in various types of databases, thus making to relatively easy to transmit information on a global scale."
