Al-Haytham's seven-volume Book of Optics is one of the most fascinating works of scientific enquiry in the Golden Age. After reviewing the wider context of Cairo in the 10th century, delve into al-Haytham's experimentation with optics and the eye. Find out why many modern scholars have called him the world's first true scientist.

Witness the early development of a unique culture that viewed itself as constituting the entirety of the world and thus the site of all cultural advancement, with the latter self-image largely maintained even after China gained an awareness of the world beyond its borders.

Your introduction to Egypt reveals a civilization irrevocably shaped by geography. You learn how the Nile's predictable annual flooding of its banks, though creating a fertile strip amounting to only 3% of Egypt, permitted civilization to thrive in what was otherwise an uninhabitable desert.

The Suez Canal, which halved the sailing distance from Europe to India, changed the course of Middle Eastern and world history. Examine the events behind the building of the canal, and reveal the amazing feat of its construction. Assess the economics of the endeavor, a story of foreign debt that would cost Egypt its independence.

In many great debates, there is a devastating moment where one side clearly out-maneuvers the other. "Flipping the warrant," which requires the highest level of analytic argument, allows you to destroy your opponent's argument by showing that their proposal, rather than solving a problem, will actually make things worse.

Learn how the professionals test and verify information, as well as what websites, plug-ins, and tactics can help you determine journalistic integrity and accuracy of information.

Hadith" refers to the collected sayings of Muhammad outside of the Quran, all of which were gathered and sifted in an amazing feat of research by Iman al-Bukhari 200 years after Muhammad's death. Journey with al-Bukhari as he wrestles with the authenticity of hundreds of thousands of hadith-and how his work continues to impact Islam today."

We all need to deal with the unexpected in our daily lives, so learning the secrets to navigating the unexpected in a debate has far-reaching applications. Here, see what it takes to slow down, diagnose, analyze, and respond to unexpected arguments. By following a few simple steps, you can easily find your way back to terra firma.

Part 04 of Computer Networking Fundamentals: ⁣Wired Local Area Networks vs. Wireless Local Area Networks

Wired LANs vs Wireless LANs

At the end of this episode, I will be able to:

1. Compare and contrast wired and wireless LAN implementations.

Learner Objective: Identify the characteristics and importance of VLANs

Description: In this episode, the learner will be introduced to the basic constructs and characteristics of wired and wireless local area networks.

• Introduction to Network Infrastructure
  • Wired LAN
    • Devices in this type of LAN are connected using bounded media
    • Bounded media types
      • Copper - The most prevalent LAN-based network medium used today. This medium uses single or multiple copper conductors to transmited data.
      • Fiber - These medium uses an optical light source to transmit data through a concentrated core made of either plastic or glass.
    • For devices to communicate, they need to be physically connected via Ethernet switch
    • Due to the nature of the physical connections, wired networks can provide a higher level of security than wireless networks
    • Wired LANs can have constraints
      • Limitation of cabling (distance, electromagnetic interference, damage)
      • Building requirements (historical sites, cumbersome installations, proximity to the connectivity device)
      • Mobility is challenging
  • Wireless LAN
    • Devices in this type of LAN connect to the network via radiated energy
    • Wireless LAN Types
      • Infrastructure mode - In this type of Wireless LAN, a centralized network device called a wireless access point controls all communications on the network.
      • Ad-hoc mode - In this type of Wireless LAN there is no centralized connectivity device. The wireless devices communicate directly with each other.
    • Wireless LANs have become increasingly more popular due today because:
      • Ease of installation
      • Reduction of physical cabling
      • Mobility
      • Simplicity to add devices to network
    • Disadvantages
      • Communication eminations
      • Obstacles and interference
      • Network saturation and congestion
  • Hybrid LAN
    • Most common LAN deployment in modern networks today
    • This type of LAN combines both wired and wireless communication
    • Wired LAN
      • Workstations and servers (these are stationary devices)
    • Wireless LAN
      • Laptops, tablets, smartphones (these are devices that require mobility)
      • Any stationary device that requires a connection, but cabling is not feasible or possible

We're all familiar with the geometric designs of the mythical flying carpets, but there is an astounding array of Islamic art from the period. Here is your chance to revel in the fine arts of the Islamic Golden Age, which in addition to geometric patterns, included stunning calligraphy, plant or vegetal designs, and figurative representations.
