22 Job ranking 25. Mathematicians: Modern mathematicians analyze data and use statistical theories to help businesses and governments make decisions. 24. Actuary: These business professionals use math and economics to help corporations predict and manage risks by designing tests, analyzing models and presenting their findings to company executives. Their work is essential to insurance corporations, which set their fees based on the probabilities that particular events will occur. 23. Optometrist 22. Nurse Anesthetist 21. Respiratory Therapist 20. Physical Therapist Assistant 22

24 Job ranking 8. Physician (tie) 8. Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon (tie) 8. Obstetrician and Gynecologist (tie) 7. Pediatrician 24
25 Job ranking 6. Statistician: Statisticians help businesses and governments make sophisticated decisions about complicated problems. They collect data about real-world scenarios, then use theories, models and specialized software to predict outcomes. Statisticians often have master s degrees plus college degrees in mathematics, economics or computer science. They may specialize in fields like engineering or physics. Demand for statisticians is expected to increase by 33.4 percent by Orthodontist 4. Nurse Practitioner 3. Physician Assistant 2. Dentist 25
26 Job ranking 1. Software Developer: These days, code is king. The importance of technology to our work and social lives has created high demand for software developers, pushing their career to the top of this list. Software developers create, maintain and fix applications and programs for smartphones and computers, paying attention to both function and form. Software developers typically have college degrees in computer science or a related discipline. Employment opportunities in the field are skyrocketing; they re expected to increase by more than 30 percent by

28 Introduction to Computer Science Outline of this lecture 1. Definitions a. Turing Model b. Von Neumann Model 2. Computer Components a. Hardware b. Data c. Software 3. History a. Mechanical Machines (before 1930) b. The birth of electronic computers ( ) c. Computer Generations (1950-present) 28
29 Definitions Computer Science = Computing Science = Informatics Informatics = information + automatic Informatics = automation of information treatment by a system Computer = Computational device 29
30 Example of a computational device Show the steps that your perform if you want the result of the sum between 2 and 3. Press on 2 (input the data 2) Press on + (compute the sum operation) Press on 3 (input the data 3) Press on = (output the final result) 30
31 Data Processor Computer = Data processor? Computer acts as a black box that 1. accepts input data, 2. process the data 3. and creates output data. Input data Computer This model is too general, in the sense that a pocket calculator becomes also a computer! What if we need to compute 6 (20!+ )? Output data 31
32 Turing Model Universal computational device introduced by Alain Turing in The Turing model is a better model for a generalpurpose model. It adds an extra element: the program 32
33 Turing Model PROGRAM a sequence of instructions that tells the computer what to do with data 33
34 Turing Model In the Turing model, the output data depends on the combination of two factors: the input data and the program. Input data Program Computer Output data 34
35 Turing Model Program Input data Computer Output data With the same input data, we can generate different outputs if we change the program. With the same program, we can generate different outputs if we change the input data. 35
36 Examples Program Sort 3, 12, 8, 22 Input data 14, 6, 8, 12 Input data Computer Program Sort Computer 3, 8, 12, 22 Output data 6, 8, 12, 14 Output data 36
37 Examples Program Sort 3, 12, 8, 22 Input data Computer 3, 8, 12, 22 Output data 3, 12, 8, 22 Input data Program Add Computer Program Find Smallest 45 Output data 3, 12, 8, 22 Input data Computer 3 Output data 37
38 Turing Model Universal Turing Machine = machine that can do any computation if the appropriate program is provided Universal Turing Machine = capable of computing anything that is computable 38
39 Von Neumann Model Program Input data Computer Output data John Von Neumann proposed that programs should also be stored in the memory of a computer. 39
40 Four Subsystems Computers built on the Von Neumann model divide the computer hardware into four subsystems: Memory Input data Arithmetic logic unit Control unit Input/output Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) Control Unit Input/output Computer Memory Output data 40
41 Four Subsystems Memory Memory is the storage area. This is where programs and data are stored during processing. 41
42 Four Subsystems Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) ALU is where calculation operation take place. For a computer to act as a data processor, it must be able to do: a. Arithmetic operations on data b. Logical operations on data 42
43 Four Subsystems Control Unit The control unit controls the operations of the memory, ALU, and the input/output subsystem. 43
44 Four Subsystems Input / Output The input subsystem accepts input data from outside the computer. The output subsystem sends the results of processing to the outside world. 44
45 Programs in Von Neumann Model A program is made of a finite number of instructions. Instructions are executed one after another. 45
46 Computer Components A computer is made up of three components: a. Computer hardware b. Data c. Computer software 46
47 Computer Components Hardware Computer hardware has 4 basic components under the Von Neumann model. 47
48 Computer Components Data Different types of data: numbers, text, image, video, audio 48
49 Computer Components Software Programs are stored in the computer s memory. Program Data Memory 49
50 Computer Components Software Programs consist of a sequence of instructions. 1.Input the first number into memory 2.Input the second number into memory 3.Add the two together and store the result in memory 4.Output the result Program 50
51 Computer Components Software A program must be composed of instructions for reusability. A programmer can combine instructions to make any number of programs. Each program can be a different combination of different instructions. 51
52 Computer Components Algorithms A programmer must learn how to combine instructions to do a particular task. A programmer must first solve the problem in a step-bystep manner, then try to find the appropriate instruction (or series of instructions) to implement those steps. Step-by-step solution = Algorithm 52
53 Computer History Timeline 53

68 First totally electronic computer. Called ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Calculator). Weighted 30 tons 1946 ENIAC 68
69 First computer based on Von Neumann s model. Called EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer) EDVAC 69
70 Computer recent 5 generations (1950-present) 70
71 Computers follow the Von Neumann model. Become faster, smaller and cheaper. 5 generations with each witnessing major changes in hardware or software. 71
72 Emergence of commercial computers. Used by professionals. Affordable only by big companies First Ge 72
73 Size and cost reduced Affordable for small organizations FORTRAN and COBOL (programming languages) invented and made programming easier Second 73
74 Invention of integrated circuit (transistors, wiring and other components on a single chip). Minicomputers appeared on the market. Software packages became available Third Ge 74
75 Microcomputers appeared on the market. Computer networks appeared Fourth G 75
76 Appearance of laptops, pads, palmtop computers. Improvements in storage media: CD- ROM, DVD, Usage of multimedia Virtual reality From 1985 Fifth Gene 76
77 Application Domain Finance (stock exchange, banks,...) 77
78 Application Domain Production (robotics, management,...) 78
79 Application Domain Science (weather forecast, geography, physics, mathematics, medicine, pharmacy, genetics, ) 79
