Furthermore nanotechnology has enabled technologies that allow the storing of energy as well as distribution, sensoring, processing and display technologies and as well "bioanalysis and drug delivery, robotics, and medical devices..." (Ibid) Research on the particles of nanotechnology reveal that since "fine particles of dust can easily penetrate into the lungs" the nanoparticle is able to "bypass or damage the lungs' clearing mechanisms...due to their minute size." (Netherlands Research Council Report, 2006) Legislative and regulatory bodies are preparing for the many issues that will arise due to the development and use of nanotechnology. The Health Council of the Netherlands states that: "Applications that involve the insertion of ICT implants into the brain touch the very core of being. They give rise to questions about the possible implications for concepts such as 'what it means to be an individual', 'freedom' and 'responsibility'." (Ibid) The societal implications are endless as well as are implications of application in the defense industry. (Ibid)
SUMMARY & CONCLUSION
Of the literature examined in this review the primarily held belief is that international research is needed relating to nanotechnology which has many important implications for positive development and use as well as having even more implications in ethical and safety concerns...
In order to better answer these questions an international research effort is needed which will serve to provide the answers to those questions and as well allow for the development of ethical, legislative and regulatory frameworks in its use and development.

It is very hard to map the intricate brocade of a human mind onto such a machine with a reasonable resolution, but the formation of artificial intelligence or machine intelligence is anticipated to offer an approachable challenge. It maybe a device with full Turing-test interactivity which is capable of fulfilling our wish or would be an interlacing dense layer of memory around a shifting model of existential realty, and
Nanotechnology All manufactured products are made from atoms, with the properties of these products based on how atoms are put together. By rearranging coal atoms, diamonds are formed. Similarly, by rearranging the atoms in sand and adding some trace elements, electronic chips are developed. In time, it will be possible to more readily connect the fundamental building blocks of nature. The word "nanotechnology" is used to describe when the characteristic dimensions
Health Care Bill The purpose of this work is to outline the legislative process and propose valuable new legislation. There are several learners objectives. The first is to understand the legislative process. The second is to be able to understand and identify gaps in the present regulatory environment. The third is to be able to gain an understanding of the wording of health care laws. There is a wide range of health
Nanotechnology New technology has been considered by governments, business leaders, industry stakeholders, and the educational sector as the key towards promoting and ensuring economic growth, especially in relation to the manufacturing sector. Some of the major technologies that have emerged in the recent past include nanotechnology and biotechnology. Nanotechnology is considered a major technology for growth because it provides an important opportunity to deal with global challenges. According to The British
From a materials development perspective, this is the important part: "The significance of this advance is this: if a material as expensive and rare as a diamond can be turned into a 'commodity,' then the applications of a variety of other materials, including everything from copper and ceramics to steel, can also be improved and utilized in different ways" (Uldrich, 2006, p. 17). From a pragmatic perspective, these developments
Technology in Use in 1910 and the Technology in Use Today Technology during 1910 and its rapid evolution to the present era: The 19th century witnessed major upheavals in science and technology ushering a gamut of changes and widespread ripple effect on the society. The dawning of science in industry brought about by the Industrial Revolution was a watershed in global technology that continued to shape the future of mankind. It
