9. What are the use of computers in law enforcement?

10. 1. Easy Access in Database Law enforcement officers with notebook computers in their squad cars can easily access databases to check credentials of motorists and individuals they interview at crime scenes. They can write and send reports while the events are still fresh. 

11. 2.Catalog the Evidences Mobile electronics are used to catalog evidence at crime scenes and to manage the evidence once it's transferred to the police facility. 

12. 3.Help Identify fingerprints Portable crime scene technology can help investigators identify fingerprints and other evidence on the site, allowing the officers to move quickly to apprehend the perpetrators.

13. 4. Communication Agencies utilize encrypted emails to communicate across agency lines to work together to solve crimes. Missing person reports, fugitive alerts and unsolved crimes can be posted to secure law enforcement websites to allow international cooperation. 

14. Gang-related activity, sex offenders and terrorist activities can easily be broadcast to law enforcement agencies worldwide immediately, limiting the amount of time others need to respond to requests and to post the necessary alerts to their own officers. Digital radio frequencies are being used to coordinate first responders and other law enforcement agencies that need to communicate simultaneously in certain situations.

15. 5. Tracking Advanced global positioning satellite (GPS) technology and cell phone ubiquity has provided law enforcement officials with additional resources to track and investigate criminal activity.

16. By incorporating tower triangulation , most cell phone users can be traced to a location that is relatively accurate. Emergency call systems and 911 operators can trace a cell phone call as quickly as they can trace a land line call. 

17. Vehicles equipped with GPS equipment can be tracked as long as the device remains activated. Small GPS tracking devices can be planted on suspects to track movements.

18. Geographic information systems (GIS) are utilized to map the movements of criminals and their activities as well as to store the information for later use. Most wireless phones have GIS technology embedded, which further adds to the ease in which movements can be tracked.

19. What are the use of computers in government?

20. 1. Email Functions Government offices that have computers usually have some type of email system in place. Emails enable government workers to compose, send or read emails from other workers and people outside the company. 

21. For example, a state unemployment office employee might answer a person's question about eligibility by email . This might inevitably save the worker time, as she would not need to speak with the person by phone. Government employees might also use emails to distribute copies of reports or presentations.

22. 2. Distributing Payments State and federal offices use computers to distribute payments to people. These payments can be sent electronically like most Social Security payments, or by check. 

23. For example, the Internal Revenue Service will usually issue checks to people for refunds. Similarly, state treasury offices often send state refund checks. Government offices also use computers to send or print disability, Medicare, Medicaid and other payments. The checks are usually produced on various printers in the government offices .

24. 3. Record Keeping The government often hires computer programmers or database managers to maintain records of employees and citizens , according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Most of these records are kept in large databases, which can store records of people's gender, age, address, phone number and other important information. 

25. Government offices also keep records of dates, such as when people file taxes, and amounts that are due and paid. Computer record keeping is an essential function for government offices because of the need for accuracy and timeliness--like for Medicaid payments.

26. Before, record keeping is like this …

27. But now, …

28. All files in one portable storage.

29. 4. Direct-Mail Promotions Some government agencies or offices might use computers to produce various direct-mail advertising campaigns . Government workers might produce these various documents on their computer, then have them professionally done through their printing office .

30. Government workers will use various name and address files to arrange the mailing, then print them directly on envelopes or brochures. For example, the United States Postal Service often uses direct-mail marketing programs to promote its various products and services, such as commemorative stamps or Express Mail.
