Computer engineering

say my parents are sick of watching Star Wars Episode II: The Clone Wars. Our family tradition of Saturday movie night is led by my brother and I, each choosing the designated movie every other week, usually that one. We would play the film on a computer while eating ice cream kept cold by the freezer in our house and previously Safeway. Two hours later, my brother and I would trudge off to bed and turn on the AC in the summer or the heater in the winter. Everything that I did, touched, and saw…

was introduced to a documentary in my science class which discussed innovative projects that will enhance the medical field’s technology. These experiences solidified my interest in engineering which led to a focus in computer engineering and biotechnology fields. The School of Engineering’s Electrical and Computer major provides…

Critical Inquiry on papers, “Microarchitectural analysis of image quality assessment algorithms” and “PLP: A Community Driven Open Source Platform for Computer Engineering Education” THARUN NIRANJAN GOMUDURAI PANDIAN, Arizona State University The research paper titled, “Microarchitectural analysis of image quality assessment algorithms“, aims to improve the efficiency of image quality assessment (IQA) algorithms by analyzing the runtime efficiency of the algorithms and identifying the…

Mechanical Engineering is one of the oldest and broadest categories of engineering. I choose it mainly because it seemed to fit my mechanical background. Also it covers such a wide subject area that it would provide plenty of job opportunities after completing my degree. My academic plan is to complete a bachelor degree for mechanic engineering and then continue into a masters for petroleum engineering. I have worked in the oilfield in the past and I find that area of study very interesting.…

know it today; the definition of computers was in the process of changing from human calculators to machines that made calculations. Many scientists, engineers and business driven individuals from around the world sought to develop machines that would make extensive calculations easier to perform as well as make laborious tasks easier to execute. Konrad Zuse, a German civil engineer, was one of the men who were at the forefront of the development of modern computers. Konrad Zuse is credited with…

sophomore year when I signed up for a C programming class. I remember asking the instructor why are we writing so many lines just to print "Hello World". She smiled and replied, "Ajit, the objective of coding is not just to print this line, but to teach computers to think like us to help us with our daily life." I still had my reservations about the programming, but as days passed, I realized what the instructor meant to say. We are always surrounded by programs, simple sets of logic to guide us…

the field of space. What are Robots? Robots are machines that can be used to do jobs. Some robots can do work by themselves. Other robots must always have a person telling them what to do. What is Robotics? It is a branch of computer science and a variety of engineering fields that deals with the…

Aerospace engineering fascinates me because it combines a lot of the topics I am best at and is most interested in. The job requires a lot of knowledge in complex math and math is hands down my strong point. Ever since I was a little boy I loved math. From that long lasting love for the subject I always knew in my mind that I was going to pursue in a career involving math. Then with it being an engineering job, there is work on computers and being able to draft out an idea and transfer that…
