Computer System Engineering & Science

Computer Science:

In this field, professionals may undertake research for design of sophisticated, hardware or software. They may be providing conceptual or practical ideas about how new hardware or software can be developed, implemented or managed.

Computer System Engineering:

Regardless of whether they develop software or hardware, engineer’s job is to repair the computers that are not functioning properly. Software engineers develop computer software systems, such as those that control manufacturing process. These professional have strong programming skills. Most hardware engineers are involved in the development of hardware such as computer chips. However some hardware engineers put together system in order to handle client’s needs. They supervise the installation of the system and monitor its performance. There is another group of engineers who are working on database system for design, development and administration. Database administration or developer uses database management system software to organize, store and retrieve data. They are generally well versed with the operating system, database management system and programming.

Mini – PC TX2 Small Factor PC

Size doesn’t matter!

The TX2 claims to be the smallest computer in the world. Sure at 156x146x56 mm and weighing an obscene 1.1 kilos, you wouldn’t find too many smaller PCs. But even if you did, they wouldn’t pack the punch of a TX2. Aimed as a desktop replacement, this small
wonder is powered by Intel 1.3 GHz Tualatin processor, with up to 512 MB RAM, a DVD/SDRW combo drive and a 30 GB hard drive. Using advanced heat reduction techniques (Its Makers claim that they’ve borrowed a leaf out from F1 car manufacturing), every free inch of the TX2 is adorned with ports, including an S-Video, two FireWire, four USB, an IrDA and a 10/100 base Ethernet.

SanDIsk Cruzer Thumb Drive

Flash in the pocket
Most flash drives have fixed capacities, so if you need to carry more data than your drive can hold, you’ll need to buy a larger capacity drive. The SanDisk Cruzer gets around this problem by using a stamp-sized Secure Digital (SD) flash memory, which you can swap with other or higher capacity SD cards. It plugs into any USB 1.1 port, works without any driver installation and is compatible with both PC’s and Macs. Its stylish, compact design allows it to be dropped into any pocket for easy transportation of your data between any location.
