Computer Science Meets Medical Science
In the past 20–30 years at least two technical advances have made quantification in pathology at a large scale possible. At the time the computing power of affordable computers increased, interest to deploy tasks emerged that were previously very laborious to perform. Combined with digital camera systems, many new possibilities became available. Examples of such measurements that were previousl...
متن کاملThe Use of Computer Algebra Systems in Computer Science Education*
Every student of Computer Science will encounter certain very important and fundamental data structures and algorithms. Many of those structures are relatively simple to understand conceptually, but exceedingly difficult to analyze, especially when average behavior is taken into account. Therefore, if students are to choose the best algorithm for a problem or optimize the parameters of an algor...
متن کاملComputer Science : Craft , Science or Engineering ?
There has been a lot of philosophical and pragmatic debate on whether Computer Science is a craft, science or an engineering discipline. This article examines both Paul Graham’s claim that hackers and painters have a lot in common and Dr. Tolbert’s claim that Computer Science is a craft on its way to becoming an engineering discipline. We conclude that both claims have truth in them and argue t...
متن کاملInformaticology: combining Computer Science, Data Science, and Fiction Science
Motivated by an intention to remedy current complications with Dutch terminology concerning informatics, the term informaticology is positioned to denote an academic counterpart of informatics where informatics is conceived of as a container for a coherent family of practical disciplines ranging from computer engineering and software engineering to network technology, data center management, in...
متن کاملComputer Science: Not about Computers, Not Science
This paper makes two claims about the fundamental nature of computer science. In particular, I claim that—despite its name—the field of computer science is neither the study of computers, nor is it science in the ordinary sense of the word. While there are technical exceptions to both claims, the nature, purpose, and ultimately the crucial contributions of the beautiful discipline of computer s...
