Software & Utilities

Computer software & software utilities. Computer software is used on a computer system, and is usually a list of specialized instructions controlling the functions of a computer during an output exercise, such as a printing of a document. There are many different software types used on a computer system, organized in layers. The lower layers are nearer to the hardware of the machine, the higher layers to the human operator. Human operators don't usually work with lower level programs, choosing rather to use compilers or language translators to make the functions easier to understand.

Computer Hardware & Accessories

Computer hardware & computer accessories. Introduced in the 1940s, the computer has become one of the most predominant electronic devices to come out of the field of technology. Computers have assisted users in the home, business and government sects of society in performing all kinds of tasks, such as word processing and financial planning, more efficiently. Users can accomplish many of these computer functions more readily by enlisting the infinite services provided by the Internet, which is an international configuration of electronically interconnected government, education, and business computer networks. Listed below are links to sites that provide a broad range of information on the hardware necessary to keep the computer and Internet industries growing.

Computer Technology

As society evolves in order to accommodate new ideas and practices, so does the technology needed to cultivate many of these innovations and emerging techniques. The term "technology" is broadly defined as the methods of applying knowledge to a specific area to spur development and enhancement. It has played an important role in shaping and advancing many facets of society, including business and education. In the modern world, technology takes on a more detailed description that includes an emphasis on the computer industry and its international prevalence.

Computer Industry

Computer Industry Reference & Resources. Market research on the computer industry is available from research centers, trade organizations, the media, university departments, and government sources. Statistics and commentary include overviews of the industry, including timelines, current usage, forecasted growth, and competitive information such as sales and shipment forecasts, market share, and planned consumer purchase information. Data, including articles and statistics, cover specific areas of the industry or specific products. These include computer systems, peripherals, software, storage, the Internet, and telecommunications.

Computers in Medicine and Health Care

Role of computers used in medicine, uses of computers in health care and importance of computers in medicine fields. The influence of computers is universal. Computers are used in applications ranging from running a farm, diagnosing a disease, and designing to constructing and launching a space vehicle. Because the development of computers has been largely the work of scientists, it is natural that a large body of computer applications serves the scientist. To solve scientific problems researchers must deal with the language of science: mathematics. To understand more deeply complex natural phenomena, scientists must use complex mathematical relationships and volumes of data too impossible to manage without the aid of computers. Many scientific computer programs serve the entire population.

AMD

Advanced Micro Devices on Friday said it would take further actions, which could include facility closures, to cut costs as it restructures in an effort to return to profitability.
The further cost reduction efforts are expected to result mainly from consolidations of facilities as the company tries to merge operations, said Drew Prairie, an AMD spokesman.
AMD originally reported the additional cost-cutting measures in a filing on Thursday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
