Computer Science

This textbook, presented in a clear and friendly writing style, provides students of Class XI with a thorough introduction to the discipline of computer science. It offers accurate and balanced coverage of all the computer science topics as prescribed in the CBSE syllabus Code 083. Assuming no previous knowledge of computer science, this book discusses key computing concepts to provide invaluable insight into how computers work. It prepares students for the world of computing by giving them a solid foundation in programming concepts, operating systems, problem solving methodology, C++ programming language, data representation, and computer hardware. KEY FEATURES • Explains theory in user friendly and easy-to-approach style • Teaches C++ from scratch; knowledge of C is not needed • Provides Programming Examples • Gives Practical Exercise • Provides Answers to Short Questions • Gives Practice Questions at the end of each chapter • Suitable for Self-Study

This title examines suitable theoretical frameworks for conceptualizing teaching and learning computer science. The book provides numerous examples of practical, 'real world' applications of major computer science information topics, such as spreadsheets, databases, and programming.

Discovering Computer Science: Interdisciplinary Problems, Principles, and Python Programming introduces computational problem solving as a vehicle of discovery in a wide variety of disciplines. With a principles-oriented introduction to computational thinking, the text provides a broader and deeper introduction to computer science than typical introductory programming books. Organized around interdisciplinary problem domains, rather than programming language features, each chapter guides students through increasingly sophisticated algorithmic and programming techniques. The author uses a spiral approach to introduce Python language features in increasingly complex contexts as the book progresses. The text places programming in the context of fundamental computer science principles, such as abstraction, efficiency, and algorithmic techniques, and offers overviews of fundamental topics that are traditionally put off until later courses. The book includes thirty well-developed independent projects that encourage students to explore questions across disciplinary boundaries. Each is motivated by a problem that students can investigate by developing algorithms and implementing them as Python programs. The book's accompanying website — http://discoverCS.denison.edu — includes sample code and data files, pointers for further exploration, errata, and links to Python language references. Containing over 600 homework exercises and over 300 integrated reflection questions, this textbook is appropriate for a first computer science course for computer science majors, an introductory scientific computing course or, at a slower pace, any introductory computer science course.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd International Workshop on Computer Science Logic, CSL 2008, held as the 17th Annual Conference of the EACSL in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2008. The 31 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 submissions. All current aspects of logic in computer science are addressed, ranging from foundational and methodological issues to application issues of practical relevance. The book concludes with a presentation of this year's Ackermann award.

Computer Science is the basic need of every organization to find out where it stands. it is a very important subject of students and every person involved in it has prescribed set of tasks. A major goal of this book “Concepts of Computer Science” is not just to explain fundamental theories and concept of computer science discipline, but to help students apply those theories and concepts to their IT lives and work lives. This book is a modest attempt to give exposure of concepts of computer science. This book has been written for the students of Class 1 to Graduation. All the new features included and extensive revision done, we feverishly hope that the book would appeal to the students , the teachers and all the interested reader. All the suggestions and feedbacks are welcomed to further improve the quality of the content to achieve the objective of presenting this book.

In its first five years of existence, The Perl Journal ran 247 articles by over 120 authors. Every serious Perl programmer subscribed to it, and every notable Perl guru jumped at the opportunity to write for it. TPJ explained critical topics such as regular expressions, databases, and object-oriented programming, and demonstrated Perl's utility for fields as diverse as astronomy, biology, economics, AI, and games. The magazine gave birth to both the Obfuscated Perl Contest and the Perl Poetry contest, and remains a proud and timeless achievement of Perl during one of its most exciting periods of development.Computer Science and Perl Programming is the first volume of The Best of the Perl Journal, compiled and re-edited by the original editor and publisher of The Perl Journal, Jon Orwant. In this series, we've taken the very best (and still relevant) articles published in TPJ over its 5 years of publication and immortalized them into three volumes. This volume has 70 articles devoted to hard-core computer science, advanced programming techniques, and the underlying mechanics of Perl.Here's a sample of what you'll find inside: Jeffrey Friedl on Understanding Regexes Mark Jason Dominus on optimizing your Perl programs with Memoization Damian Conway on Parsing Tim Meadowcroft on integrating Perl with Microsoft Office Larry Wall on the culture of Perl Written by 41 of the most prominent and prolific members of the closely-knit Perl community, this anthology does what no other book can, giving unique insight into the real-life applications and powerful techniques made possible by Perl.Other books tell you how to use Perl, but this book goes far beyond that: it shows you not only how to use Perl, but what you could use Perl for. This is more than just The Best of the Perl Journal -- in many ways, this is the best of Perl.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference IFIP TCS 2000 held in Sendai, Japan in August 2000. The 32 revised full papers presented together with nine invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 70 submissions. The papers are organized in two tracks on algorithms, complexity, and models of computation and on logics, semantics, specification, and verification. The book is devoted to exploring new frontiers of theoretical informatics and addresses all current topics in theoretical computer science.

The 6th FTRA International Conference on Computer Science and its Applications (CSA-14) will be held in Guam, USA, Dec. 17 - 19, 2014. CSA-14 presents a comprehensive conference focused on the various aspects of advances in engineering systems in computer science, and applications, including ubiquitous computing, U-Health care system, Big Data, UI/UX for human-centric computing, Computing Service, Bioinformatics and Bio-Inspired Computing and will show recent advances on various aspects of computing technology, Ubiquitous Computing Services and its application.
