From Ancient History to the Megaships of today documents the evolution of ships from early dugout canoes to modern megaships. Early boats included dugout canoes used by stone age populations for travel and fishing. The Ancient Egyptians had knowledge of sail construction. In medieval times, dhows were used in the Red Sea, Indian Ocean, and Persian Gulf regions. Vikings developed longboats for trade, commerce, exploration, and warfare. Chinese junks carried over 200 people by 200 AD. Modern ships included the SS Savannah, the first steamship to cross the Atlantic in 1818, and the RMS Titanic, the largest ship afloat when it sank in 1912 after colliding with an iceberg.

THE GREAT INVENTIONS IN WATERWAY TRANSPORT THROUGHOUT HISTORY AND THEIR FUTUR...Fernando Alcoforado
This article aims to present the great inventions that occurred with the means of river, lake and maritime transport, aiming at the transport of people and cargo throughout history and its future evolution. The use of boats constituted one of the first means of locomotion invented by man and was crucial for the development of humanity. Since ancient times, boats have been used as a means of transport. In the beginning, canoes were used for fishing activities and short-distance transport. Canoes are considered the first vessels used to transport people and cargo. Taking advantage of the current of the water or using oars, the navigators moved the canoes, covering small distances. Over time, sailing boats were invented, which moved driven by the force of the wind. The development of ships and the discovery of new navigation techniques made it possible for human beings to cross rivers, seas and oceans, overcoming long distances in the transport of passengers and cargo, in addition to using them as weapons of war. From wooden canoes to large vessels such as modern ocean liners, there has been a lot of progress. In the future, vessels will benefit from increasingly sophisticated technologies. Smart ships will become an integral part of the reality that surrounds us.

To cover over 2 millennium of maritime trade, in the Middle East, India, SE Asia and China under 50 slides, can only give us the briefest gleam into the course of history. To get the benefit of the slides, you will need to set aside some time to read through the contents (This is a very wordy document. It takes time to read). Our perceptions on the maritime contacts are changing too. The discovery in particular of dozens of ancient shipwrecks in Southeast Asia has built up a picture of the historic trade and the technology.I hope in these few slides, would help to understanding an aspect of human civilization on Earth.
Too often our own ego-centric interest becomes a source of our own ignorance.
In 2.0 version of the presentation, I have added several slides on the Srivijaya and of the Chola Empire and reconstruction of the Borobudur ship.
To cover over 2 millennium of maritime trade, in the Middle East, India, SE Asia and China under 50 slides, can only give us the briefest gleam into the course of history. To get the benefit of the slides, you will need to set aside some time to read through the contents. Our perceptions on the maritime contacts are changing too. The discovery in particular of dozens of ancient shipwrecks in Southeast Asia has built up a picture of the historic trade and the technology.
The voyage of the Chinese mariner Zhenghe and his voyages to the Indian Ocean. Until recently it is relatively unknown in the West. When I get started, I found that these spectacular Zhenghe's voyages were only the last brilliant chapter of the Asian Maritime book, before the arrival of the European by sea. As I dig deeper, I discovered dozen of shipwrecks and the achievements went far into the past.
The Srivijaya was the Asian equivalent of the European maritime power, like Venice. Their power was based on the control of the sea-lanes, with a series of ports and they rarely ventured into the hinterlands. This and other powers in Southeast Asia were in turned seeded by an even older maritime power in south India, the Cholas Empire. From India the journey took me further west to the lands of the Arab and Persian, the maritime world of Sinbad the Sailor. Until the arrival of the European and before the development of the Chinese maritime network in the Tang Dynasty, Arab dhows sailed across the ocean and the seas from ends to ends, linking distance people of China to the European. At last, I arrived in Alexandria, the ancient trading hub of the Mediterranean world, a bridge between the East with the West.
In the slides, I have included three incidences of overseas traders being massacred in Chinese history. This is not to put black marks on an otherwise successful Chinese civilisation, but to remind ourselves how history have been sanctified one way or another. History should be a honest account of the past, without distortions and omissions. History is the witness. I hope in these few slides, would help to understanding an aspect of human civilization on Earth. Too often our own ego-centric interest becomes a source of our own ignorance.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

canoe is a boat made from
a hollowed tree trunk.
3. •The Ancient Egyptians had
knowledge
of sail construction. This is
governed by the
science of aerodynamics
•Most probably the first sailing
boat.
4. • This boat is entirely made
out of wood and it is held
together by ropes.
5. • In early
modern India and Arabia the late
en-sail ship known as
the dhow was used on the
waters of the Red Sea, Indian
Ocean, and Persian Gulf.
• Dhow (Arabic داوdāw) is the
generic name of a number of
traditional sailing vessels with
one or more masts with lateen
sails used in the Red
Sea and Indian Ocean region.
Historians are divided as to
whether the dhow was invented
6. • There were also Southeast
Asian Seafarers and Polynesians, and the Northern
European Vikings, developed oceangoing vessels and
depended heavily upon them for travel and population
movements prior to 1000 AD.
• China's ships in the medieval period were particularly
massive; multi-mast sailing junks were carrying over
200 people as early as 200 AD.
7. • Viking Longboats
(Northern Europe,
1000A.D.)

fighting and transport
ships.
8. • Various ships were in use
during the Middle Ages.
Long ships were sea
vessels made and used
by the Vikings from
the Nordic countries for
trade, commerce,
exploration, and warfare
during the Viking
Age although scientific
analysis of the oak timber
shows at least one well
known ship was built in
Dublin, Ireland.
9. • A knarr is a type
of Norse merchant ship
famously used by
the Vikings.
10. • The cog was a design which
is believed to have evolved
from (or at least been
influenced by) the longship,
and was in wide use by the

clinker method of
construction.
• The caravel was a ship
invented in Islamic Iberia and
used in the Mediterranean
from the 13th century.
11. • These wooden ships
were used as
battleships, and for
exploration.

an American hybrid sa
iling ship/sidewheel
steamerbuilt in 1818.
She is notable for
being the first
steamship in the world
to cross the Atlantic
Ocean.
