Computer-it's hard to imagine a world without them. As a result of new technologies, particularly in the past twenty years or so, our modern society has been almost deluged by a continual introduction of new products, both in computer hardware systems and software.
The manufacturing of computer hardware includes all the components, such as CPU (central processing unit) and peripheral equipment such as the disks, monitors, storages devices, tape drives, and printers.
Computer software consists of a program or programs made up of machine-readable instructions that perform a logical sequence of functions-anything from maintaining software a bookkeeping system to performing computer games.
All of the remarkable and continuing advances in computer technology may be credited to the highly trained and skilled group of professionals called COMPUTER SCIENTISTS. This group includes computer designers, software designers, computer engineers, product designers, systems analysts, computer support analysts, and database managers and administrators.
