Software engineering

I graduated high school in 2014 with a 4.0 GPA, was in the top ten percent of my class, and was accepted to Pennsylvania State University. Everything had gone right for me, and I was excited to begin my college career. The only problem was, I did not know what I wanted to major in, let alone what I wanted to be in my life. I chose Penn State because they had a great program for students who were undecided. My hope was that I would suddenly have an epiphany and realize what career I wanted to…

A good example, when you are writing software for the chip, you really rely on the chip designers to tell you how the chip works, and it is often obvious they often do a poor job of documenting what they have done. So, in SiBEAM it is really easy to get a design engineer to sit next to you and work with you to understand how the chip should be programed. Within Silicon Image it was a lot more difficult and I think the Silicone Image design guys felt software guys were not doing enough on their…

Introduction In this module, we will learn how to describe the translational motion of a system of extended objects using the center of mass and momentum conservation. In general, such systems will also have two other types of motion: overall rotational motion and internal motions. We will deal with internal motion and rotation in later modules. Momentum We define the linear momentum (p) of a particle of mass m travelling at a velocity v as: p ⃗ = mv ⃗ Momentum is a vector quantity, and its…

Multisensory approach in architecture education Case study: the basic courses of architecture in Iran's universities Abstract. The privileged position of vision in architecture design is, increasing-ly criticized, as also as the use of external representation methods, which de-grade the architecture's reality in a mere visual, or an "art of the printed im-age". However, the integration with architecture involves our entire body and all of the senses. Prior to professional field, this can be…

Queuing Theory Queuing theory analyzes the mathematics of waiting lines. Waiting lines are an essential part of project management and are useful to predict and evaluate system performance. Queuing theory is used in both manufacturing and services areas (Heizer et al. 748). For example, queue (waiting line) affects how people shop for groceries, or make a bank deposit. The main goal of queuing is to achieve service efficiency and minimize or eliminate total costs. (Sherman, “Queuing Theory”)…

D1 - Discuss how potential errors in the design and construction of a database can be avoided. Accidental deletion of fields When a database is being used you might find it easy to accidently delete data which could mean a lot of stress if it is something which is very valuable. One main way to avoid this would be to make sure that back-ups are made of the data, so whatever the matter the data will not be completely lost. Back-ups can be stored on anything like a memory stick or an external…

After another exhausting year, the robot made it’s way back to the World Championship through the design award. The design award was given to an engineering notebook that excelled above all in the state. I worked tirelessly on the notebook, adding entries and information. I was also able to attend the World Championships that year because I saved up all my money. Even though the robot didn’t win at…

computer science and learn how to how to make computers do new things and accomplish tasks more efficiently. My educational goal is similar to my career goal because not only will I be engaged in figuring out how to create programs in computers run software more efficiently but I will also be gaining a greater understanding of new things. Technically speaking I want my educational goal to be passionate about learning, be ready to take risks, persevere, be able to problem solve and think…

Truly, technology has very amazing qualities. From the intricate machines and computers used today to newer creations such as 3d printers and virtual reality, technology continues to evolve to help our everyday lives. I, Russel Rivera, hope to be accepted into Bergen County Academies so I can learn and enhance my knowledge about this important subject. At this school, I know I will further my understanding about technology and excel in the other subjects that BCA has to offer. The power of…

My plans are still on the cloudy side, but I have some set ideas on what I wish to do. Since the beginning, I have always worked hard in my education to be at the very top. I plan to graduate high school with honors and have completed some college required courses. My ACT goal has been reached already, but I am hoping that the next time I take it that I will get even higher. With my outstanding GPA and ACT score, I hope to obtain a good amount of scholarships from my colleges of interest and…
