Computational science

comprehensive foundation in the field of Computer Science. Within this field, I have developed a deep interest in the area of Theory and Computational Science. More specifically I find algorithms and theory of computation the most appealing areas due to their application in solving many real world problems. My undergraduate course in the field of Electronics Engineering has given me a comprehensive exposure to all the core fields of computer science

that exactly suited my interests in applied mathematics and engineering mechanics. Since then, I have taken every opportunity possible to expand my knowledge of computational mechanics, and I hope to further that effort at the University of Illinois. My academic experience began freshman year of college, when I took a course on computational methods in engineering. As it was an honors course, the curriculum was extremely aggressive. We covered basic programming in both C++ and MATLAB, a number of numerical

It’s 8:59 A.M. on a Saturday, and I am waiting with my dad in his car. It is the only car in the strip mall parking lot. I am antsy to get my repaired computer back to play games. A small silver car pulls in next to us and out walks a college-aged guy that smells of a stale smoke. My dad hands me some cash and I walk into the store behind the young guy as he turns on the lights of the computer store. “You come to pick up a computer?” the young smoker asks me while he boots up the store’s main

conducting a computer simulation called “Rabbits and Wolves”. In this experiment I will be interaction with a simple forest ecosystem model that will simply take into account three organisms: rabbits, wolves, and grass. As defined by “Environmental Science- 14th Edition”, an ecosystem is “a set of organisms within a defined area or volume that interact with one another and with their environment of nonliving matter and energy.” I will be using the computer simulation to alter the interactions of the

“Rabbits and wolves” Introduction The computer simulation named “Rabbits and wolves” is about models and simple systems. In the simulation, there are three main organisms, rabbits, wolves and grass all put together in a forest ecosystem. An ecosystem is a set of organism within a defined area or volume that interact with one another and with their environment (Miller & Spoolman). A system is a collection of elements or components that are organized for a common purpose (Rouse, 2005).

computers more accessible. Intelligent computer systems can and do benefit us all; however people have constantly warned that making computers too intelligent can be to our disadvantage. Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a field of computer science that attempts to simulate characteristics of human intelligence or senses. These include learning, reasoning, and adapting. This field studies the designs of intelligent

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE – PhD in Computational Engineering?? “In this mighty world many blabber about their dreams, but who identified their paths and persistently stuck on their words are the few ones, who are known famous to the world. Being remained unknown would be my greatest regret. My path to chase my dreams is Mechanical Engineering, for a proud mechanical engineer can say, “When we rest, the world rusts!” I have had a special interest in mechanical engineering since my childhood, as I grew

high schools teach computer science, the study of the principles and use of computers, despite its critical importance. Even as the enrollment in science, technology, engineering, and math classes have increased in the past 20 years, the number of students enrolled in computer science has actually decreased. This can be attributed to the neglect exhibited by schools on computer science. In these 20 years, 1 billion computers have been built which makes computer science “integrated”: so baked into

lives. But the tools that are being invested in are not being used effectively, and they are showing very minor benefits relative to the massive economical investment that the public has placed in it. The developments and integration of computer science curriculum in K-12 education is better understood by observing the current impact that technology has made on students, and exploring the perspectives of teachers and administrators on technology integration and the expansion of computer curriculum

at which the vast majority of college students take fundamental level of computer science. It is because a lot of job requires some level of knowledge in it. It also determines the payment in their future job. It is an indisputable fact that people who did not learn computer science learn less salary than those who did learn. Therefore, the majority of the college students are obsessed with computer science to acquire a financial advantage in the work place. In the first of class of IDS
