Computer literacy by computer

Proceedings of the thirteenth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education - SIGCSE '82, 1982
The basic concepts of computer literacy can be taught by the use of computer management and interactive instruction. The approach described here emphasizes measuring student achievement, and informing students of their progress. This approach also incorporates a system for the evaluation of alternative instructional experiences.

To compute or not to compute?

Nature, 2006
Quantum physics aims another blow at common sense: a simple quantum computer gives the right answer, even when it is not run. (Traditionalists be comforted: the computer must be turned on.)

Computer Design in Computational Mechanics

2009 International Conference on Computing, Engineering and Information, 2009
The computational mechanics suffers a lack of modifiability and interactivity, which leads to neglecting its potential to help engineers in solving problems faster and cheaper. The fully integration of computer design in computational mechanics will tackle this problems, by means of providing the capability to explore design variations within an ...

Computational complexity and evolutionary computation

Proceedings of the 9th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2007
Evolutionary algorithms and other nature-inspired search heuristics like ant colony optimization have been shown to be very successful when dealing with real-world applications or problems from combinatorial optimization. In recent years, analyses has shown that these general randomized search heuristics can be analyzed like "ordinary" randomized ...

Computing Without Computers

Architectural Design, 2005
AbstractJohn Frazer trained as an architect in London and at Cambridge during the 1960s and 1970s. He identified at the very earliest stages of their development how the processing power of computers might assist the design process, and then tried to imagine the effects of this on the role of the architect, the client/user and the environment.

Computers and Computing

2013
Thomas Watson Jr., Ken Olsen, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs were all great men who headed great companies, namely, International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), Microsoft, and Apple but regrettably neither they nor their companies invented computers, as we will see below.

Computers and Computation

1986
Recent years have seen considerable progress in computer technology, in computer science, and in the computational sciences, which include computational chemistry. To a large extent developments in these fields have been mutually dependent. Progress in computer technology — such as the use of very-large-scale integrated circuits — has led to ...

Peculiarities of Computer Computations [PDF]

open access: possible, 1993
In the course of analysis of performance of computer programs constructed on the base of algorithms presented in this book, one should carefully take peculiarities of computer arithmetics into account. To this circle of problems belong questions concerning realizations (without overflows) of arithmetic operations and also other aspects of employing ...

SURVEY COMPUTATIONS ON A SMALL COMPUTER

Survey Review, 1965
AbstractThe next programme is an extension of the last, with the object of solving and adjusting any survey network problem given as data: coordinates, bases, azimuths, distances, angles, and bearings. Since storage is at a premium in a small computer, the inclusion of the extra facilities must be paid for by a small reduction in the size of network ...

Computers In Computed Tomography

IEEE 1977 Region Six Conference Record, 1977., 2005
Computed Tomography is presented. Basic theory of CT operation along with typical CT images are presented. The computational system architectures as applied to computed tomography is presented. Three basic com puter configurations are described. These computa tional architectures span four generations of computer tomography systems.
