This textbook, presented in a clear and friendly writing style, provides students of Class XI with a thorough introduction to the discipline of computer science. It offers accurate and balanced coverage of all the computer science topics as prescribed in the CBSE syllabus Code 083. Assuming no previous knowledge of computer science, this book discusses key computing concepts to provide invaluable insight into how computers work. It prepares students for the world of computing by giving them a solid foundation in programming concepts, operating systems, problem solving methodology, C++ programming language, data representation, and computer hardware. KEY FEATURES • Explains theory in user friendly and easy-to-approach style • Teaches C++ from scratch; knowledge of C is not needed • Provides Programming Examples • Gives Practical Exercise • Provides Answers to Short Questions • Gives Practice Questions at the end of each chapter • Suitable for Self-Study
Computer Science is the basic need of every organization to find out where it stands. it is a very important subject of students and every person involved in it has prescribed set of tasks. A major goal of this book “Concepts of Computer Science” is not just to explain fundamental theories and concept of computer science discipline, but to help students apply those theories and concepts to their IT lives and work lives. This book is a modest attempt to give exposure of concepts of computer science. This book has been written for the students of Class 1 to Graduation. All the new features included and extensive revision done, we feverishly hope that the book would appeal to the students , the teachers and all the interested reader. All the suggestions and feedbacks are welcomed to further improve the quality of the content to achieve the objective of presenting this book.
Would your company be prepared in the event of: * Computer-driven espionage * A devastating virus attack * A hacker's unauthorized access * A breach of data security? As the sophistication of computer technology has grown, so has the rate of computer-related criminal activity. Subsequently, American corporations now lose billions of dollars a year to hacking, identity theft, and other computer attacks. More than ever, businesses and professionals responsible for the critical data of countless customers and employees need to anticipate and safeguard against computer intruders and attacks. The first book to successfully speak to the nontechnical professional in the fields of business and law o...
Essential Computer and it Fundamentals for Engineering And S
This history of computing focuses not on chronology (what came first and who deserves credit for it) but on the actual architectures of the first machines that made electronic computing a practical reality. The book covers computers built in the United States, Germany, England, and Japan. It makes clear that similar concepts were often pursued simultaneously and that the early researchers explored many architectures beyond the von Neumann architecture that eventually became canonical. The contributors include not only historians but also engineers and computer pioneers. An introductory chapter describes the elements of computer architecture and explains why "being first" is even less interes...
Beginning with an explanation of why considerable outlays for computing since 1973 have not resulted in comparable payoffs, the author proposes that emerging techniques for user-centred development can turn the situation around - through task analysis, ite
This volume contains selected and invited papers presented at the International Conference on Computing and Information, ICCI '90, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, May 23-26, 1990. ICCI conferences provide an international forum for presenting new results in research, development and applications in computing and information. Their primary goal is to promote an interchange of ideas and cooperation between practitioners and theorists in the interdisciplinary fields of computing, communication and information theory. The four main topic areas of ICCI '90 are: - Information and coding theory, statistics and probability, - Foundations of computer science, theory of algorithms and programming, - Concurrency, parallelism, communications, networking, computer architecture and VLSI, - Data and software engineering, databases, expert systems, information systems, decision making, and AI methodologies.
