Encyclopedia of Computer Information Technology (Volume 1 & 2)

Description

Encyclopedia of Computer Information Technology provides readers with all the basic information related to computer engineering. Computer engineering as an academic discipline is described in detail, along with details about its select core knowledge areas, such as algorithm, computer architecture, information technology, database management system, integrated circuit design and layout, etc. In describing computer system, a distinction is often made between computer architecture and computer organization. Computer architecture refers to those attributes of a system visible to a programmer, or put another way, those attributes that have a direct impact on the logical execution of a program. Computer organization refers to the operational units and their interconnection that realise the architecture specification. Information Technology (IT) is the application of technology to solve organizational and business problems. This field of engineering uses computers, networks, storage, and other technical infrastructure both hardware and software, to deal with and manipulate information/data. The responsibilities of an Information Technology department are many; professionals follow a combination of policies and processes to ensure IT systems run effectively and aligned with the organization’s needs, they provide tech support, maintenance, device management and security testing services. Information technology (IT) encompasses all of the technology a company uses and how they use it. This includes aspects of hardware, software, cloud computing and storage. Those who work in the IT field find themselves working with all or some of these components and often interact directly with the individuals they’re assisting. This publication also focuses sufficiently on the relationship between computers and electronics and the areas of cooperation in the electronic industry. In this way, the present Encyclopedia will be useful for those belonging to the field of computer science, information technology and its related fields.
