Why do cell phone batteries explode?

          Ever since the inception of battery technology in 1700's, we must admit that there hasn't been much of a revolutionary breakthrough to account for even after almost 300 years.

The role of Computer Science in the development of Social Networks and their impact on the society.

       The advent of the computers has marked enormous advancements in the interdisciplinary fields of Science revolutionizing some of the major inventions which have molded our society in more ways than imaginable. From the era of telegraphs and ENIACs to seamless multi-core super computers and mobile phones we boast of today are instances of the rapid development of computer science transforming every sphere of our lives in the history of humankind. The proliferation of computers have enabled people to connect to anyone, anywhere in the world by the click of few buttons making the world a smaller place to live in. This computer mediated communication between people have eventually resulted in complex human  networks that are nearly impossible to decelerate in times to come.
