Computing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (335 words) |
 | Originally, the word computing was synonymous with counting and calculating, and a science that deals with the original sense of computing mathematical calculations. |
| "Computing" has come to mean the operation and usage of computing machines, the electrical processes carried out within the computing hardware itself, and the theoretical concepts governing them (computer science). |
| The discipline of computing is the systematic study of algorithmic processes that describe and transform information: their theory, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and application. |
| Pervasive Computing (1532 words) |
| Computing is no longer a discrete activity bound to a desktop; network computing and mobile computing are fast becoming a part of everyday life and so is the Internet. |
| Pervasive computing devices are not personal computers as we tend to think of them, but very tiny - even invisible - devices, either mobile or embedded in almost any type of object imaginable; all communicating through increasingly interconnected networks. |
| Computational power will be available everywhere through mobile and stationary devices that will dynamically connect and coordinate to smoothly help users in accomplishing their tasks. |
