Reform Movement: Demolishing Barriers Between Computer Science and Computer Engineering in Purdue University

Introduction
Synergy Between Computer Engineering and Computer Science
Engineering is the ‘practice of safe and economic application of scientific laws’. Science is a ‘systematic observation of natural events in order to formulate laws.’ The field of engineering became a separate discipline from science in the nineteenth century.
Computer science, like engineering, is a field of applied science. Unlike science, it has a shorter-term view. Computer science aims to determine what will work, and not to discover fundamental laws of nature. It is akin to engineering in its emphasis on automation. Therefore, computer science is more aligned to engineering than to ...

Structure of Computer Systems

Humans are still superior over computer systems. However, one of the major roles of computer scientists is to create programs to enable computer devices to imitate how humans behave and think. It is one of their goals to create systems that simplify the lives of people. With the current trend of how computers are used in the daily lives of humans, it will not be far when humans will just sit in a corner with their remotes on hand or in front of their computers while the programmed machines will do the work for them.
One of the focus ...

Legacy Systems has been in use for the past number of decades. Their functions range from running financial transactions such as ATM systems to management information systems all over the world. COBOL the Common Business-Oriented Language is an example of a legacy system. However, the convergence of Computers, digital technologies and the innovations over the internet platform in the last decade calls for elimination of legacy based systems and substituting it with client-server or web-based systems. The information technology management curriculum should not include learning more about COBOL and legacy system software.
Old systems run by COBOL are found ...
