CSE 102Introduction to Computer Engineering

What is Computer Engineering?

What is Computing?

In a general way, we can define computing to mean any activity of a technical nature involving computers.

What is Computing?

Thus, computing includes: • designing and building hardware and software systems for

any of a wide range of purposes; • processing, structuring and managing various kinds of

information;• doing scientific studies using computers; • making computer systems behave intelligently; • creating and using communications and entertainment

media; • finding and gathering information relevant to any

particular purpose, and • so on.

What is Computer Engineering?

Subjects under the topic of Computing:

• Computer Science

• Information Systems

• Software Engineering

• Computer Engineering

• Information Technology

Computer Engineering

• Computer engineering is concerned with the design and construction of computers and computer-based systems. It involves the study of hardware, software, communications, and the interaction among them.

• Computer engineering students study the design of digital hardware systems, including computers, communications systems, and devices that contain computers. They also study software development with a focus on software used within and between digital devices.

Computer Science

Computer science includes the work in three categories:

• Design and implementation of software. Computer scientists take on challenging programming jobs.

• Devising new ways to use computers, such as networking, database, human-computer-interface, World Wide Web, robotics, artificial intelligence, etc.

• Developing effective ways to solve computing problems. For example, computer scientists develop the best possible ways to store information in databases, send data over networks, and display complex images, and develop new approaches that provide better performance.

Information Systems (IS)

Information systems specialists focus on integrating information technology solutions and business processes to meet the information needs of businesses and other enterprises, enabling them to achieve their objectives in an effective, efficient way.

Professionals in this discipline are primarily concerned with both technical and organizational factors.

The information systems specialist plays a key role in determining the requirements for an organization’s information systems and is active in their specification, design, and implementation.

Information Technology (IT)

IT specialists take responsibility for

• selecting hardware and software products appropriate for an organization,

• integrating those products with organizational needs and infrastructure,

• and installing, customizing and maintaining those applications for the organization’s computer users.

Software Engineering

Software engineering is the discipline of developing and maintaining software systems that

• behave reliably and efficiently,

• are affordable to develop and maintain.
