Theoretical And Conceptual Of Computer Science

In this fast paced ever changing world, there is always a need to increase the efficiency and reduce the time required for a particular problem to be solved. Most biological experiments, apart from being time consuming, are unpredictable and difficult to maintain, which results in a wastage of resources. With the advent of computers and their increased application in many different fields of study, we can now theoretically test out the hypothesis before proceeding with the practical experiment. Computational biology, as it is termed, is paving the path towards achieving this. With the success of the human genome project, the need for biologists equipped with the ability to look at diseases from a computational and mathematical standpoint

An example given in the article, super computers can be used in a health system to mine existing data and create models for treatment of existing diseases. Patterns can be identified and thus help support and help individuals better understand their risk of illness, customize prevention, and create treatment strategies

Computer sciences are so essential to humans that they have become part of us, impacting every aspect of our lives. Every day we see how society depends on computers to perform daily tasks, binding each one of us to possess a strong foundation in computer sciences in order to match the pace of this civilization. On the other hand, due to the new advances in technology, there is no need for social interactions between humans, shaping completely our relationships and social behaviors, making us somehow less appreciative of the human touch.

A common carrier is a private company that sells or leases communication services and facilities to the public. Common carriers are profit-oriented, and their primary products are services for voice and data transmissions, both over traditional wired circuits as well as cellular services. Common carriers often supply a broad range of computer-based services, such as the manufacturing and marketing of specialized communication hardware and software. A common carrier that provides local telephone services (e.g., BellSouth) is commonly called a local exchange carrier (LEC), while one that provides long distance services (e.g., MCI) is

Beginning in the 1950s, computer scientists began to look towards Darwin's ideas as being applicable to computer programs. This is because, in an abstract sense, evolution could be viewed as nature gradually optimizing different species

Within the last thirty years, the pioneering British computer scientist and Cambridge academic Alan Mathison Turing (1912-1954) has undergone an astonishing reappraisal. His major work on breaking Enigma Codes, his key 1936 paper On Computable Numbers (describing a theoretical machine that could solve any mathematical problem given enough time), and his early digital machines such as the programmable Pilot ACE (most notably his work at the University of Manchester between 1947 and 1954) was unquestionably used and appreciated while he still lived.1

Her brief life distinguishes herself as an important participant in the early history of modern computers, for she was the first to articulate the methodology of computer programming. She saw into the future of the Analytical Engine unlike many of the capable minds of her time. Though her life was short, Ada Lovelace anticipated by more than a 110 years most of what we think of as brand-new computing. Although her discoveries were prodigious, her work had little or no direct influence on computer science, for computer scientists in the 1940’s and 1950’s had rediscovered most of what she had written without any knowledge of her work. However, her life and work are of great historical interest and leaves a legacy from which many women may be inspired. Ada Lovelace, persevered and followed her passions despite the limitations placed upon her as a woman. She is a role model to look up to as someone not limited by the traditional roles women found themselves in. Her life exemplifies the fact that life is short and it should be lived

humans and computers must be well designed. Humans do not think in binary or code.

The computer is one of the greatest gifts from science. If we check history, “computer” was just a name of a job title. That name has transferred to a machine as we see computers in this generation. Then, Scientists have invented biocomputers with systems included to build out of genes, proteins, cells and O.R. operations. Biocomputers have become so advanced over the past few years. In 2000, first big innovations came to Boston University by James Collins and his colleagues. They have stitched together inhering genes to make a genetic switch. Also, synthetic biologists performed all basics Boolean operations of digital logic by creating genetic parts. In 2011, researchers programmed cells to communicate with each other through chemicals. Synthetic Biologists aimed to see the abilities of cells to run some programmes that they designed by biocomputers.

The concept of artificial intelligence was first labeled by a man named Alan Turing in 1950, he believed that the future would hold the possibility for man to communicate with computers and sustain a conversation (Atkinson, Solar 1). Although, we have reached the point where it is possible to hold a simple preprogrammed conversation with a computer and give them the ability to learn, there is still a long way to go in making computers fully artificially intelligent. Atkinson and Solar continue to describe some real world applications of artificial intelligence such as, “Data mining technologies, fraud detection, and industrial-strength optimization” (8). In these examples, forms of artificial intelligence like cognitive reasoning abilities are already being used making the demand for them higher.

With my background in computer science, I have learned to take a logical approach to reasoning through mathematical problems. Specifically, I believe that my focus on bioinformatics during my undergraduate has helped prepare me for a career in this field. Logical reasoning and a fundamental understanding of algorithms is the key to successful analysis and interpretation of patient data. In the future, I hope to apply my programming competence to more involved, unsolved problems in the field of developmental disorders through informatics and data-driven

Playing games on my father's computer as a child fascinated me in the way the computer works, how fast it develops, and now how the computer helps the world to communicate. It still amazes me in how fast computers change and how communication across the globe is enhanced with the computer. Computers have drastically changed how society lives and does business. Even small businesses can do global sales without leaving their location. With new strategies for business, comes cyber threats of identity theft and theft of intellectual property that brings information technology security and new laws into play. It is becoming a fast and ever challenging world. Computer science enables the ability to program software for protection against these kinds of threats and vulnerabilities. It also enables the ability to program artificial intelligence into the computer system software to enable society to meet their needs in more appropriate ways.

Computer science is a hard concept to grasp because it involves problem-solving and logical thinking. Along with the concepts, coding issues is one of the greatest trouble students will face. Students have the Teacher Assist room available for them to use to solve these common problems, but they will mostly encounter another problem. The TA room for the majority of any given day will be overcrowded with students; the room’s maximum capacity is only 32.

It is universally agreeable that with the advent of Computer technology, every ambitious and enthusiastic individual is really obsessed with the idea of doing computer science at graduate level because it seems to have created a zeal and enthusiasm in the hearts of youth, particularly those who aspire to be marked as high achievers. I, for one, seem to have been enchanted by these computer applications as they have made the world smaller, speaking in terms of globalization. I have no hesitation to add that core computerization alone is the suitable answer to all the areas unexploited and to the areas waiting for development. It has always been a fascination for me about how computers work, how these applications are designed and what can be the newer ways to explore the world of computers to make our world better. This interest became a passion for me when I was exposed to computer science basics, during my middle school. Pursuing computer science engineering at undergraduate level, further propelled my passion for computer science along with providing me a deeper insight and in-depth understanding of the subject. After completing my under graduation in Computer Science, I am willing to expedite my research interest and a masters degree seemed the most appropriate choice for realizing my aspirations.
