Software engineering focuses on the testing of software only while computer

engineering test both the hardware and software.

) Computer science is the creation of programs for computer system while information

system is the integration of multiple programs into one coherent systems


Input, and output

data- age

Information- average age

Age is necessary to know what types of programs to offer based on the child’s age.

Average age would help to determine which programs may require more attention or focus
Blog- reverse chronological log of activates/ post focusing on a

particular topic.

Wiki- collaborative website that collects information contributed by

many people on certain topic.


(1) Will allow for multiple students to contribute meaningful information on good

diet habits to one centralised place.

(2) The posts can be moderated by an administrator before they are administer to

be posted on the wiki page. This will ensure quality data is posted.
Size- the size of hardware has decreased e.g hard drives to SD cards

Speed- the speed of processors has increased because of more

transistors e.g MHz to GHz

Cost- the cost to store data has dropped considerably over time

because of new technologies and hardware longevity. Cost pre GB

reduction. e.g Tape drive to hard drive


Accuracy, currency and bias/subjectivity

Accuracy- wrong news reports which causes misinformation.

Currency- the news would be out of data and become irrelevant to the reader

Bias/subjectivity- the news may not be taken seriously if there is a clear bias.
Accessibility-if there is no internet connection the files can’t be accessed.

Cost- most providers start with a free plan but charge over a certain GB limit.

Security- if the username and password get compromised the data can be stolen.
Ftp- File Transfer Protocol is the protocol used to upload files to servers

Mailing list- this is a master list of emails addresses used to send pertinent

information to certain groups of people

A wide variety of websites can be delivered giving a broad range of views on a

particular topic .e.g when searching for scientific views some websites may only

give one side of the argument while another may counter and give more

perspective.
Telecommuting- zoom,

VoIP- Microsoft teams

Teleconferencing- google meet

Telecommuting- allows you to connect to the work servers remotely and access

files used in the meeting.

VoIP- allows you to talk to members of the meeting in real time and get

feedback.

Teleconferencing- allows multiple people to be on the same call and interact

simultaneously.
computer scientist and software engineer

hardware- the hardware should function properly and be reliable because all other

system depend on it .e.g reliable hard drives.

Networking- this is necessary because it allows the system to communicate with

each other effetely .e.g efficient switches and router


Star- if the central switch or hub goes down the whole network is affected

Ring- if one computer or node goes down the whole network is affected.

Bus- if there is a break I the transmission line a large portion of the network can

be affected.
software that has been made by a company to work only on the specified hardware

they approve of .e.g windows

reliability- the software is tested extensively to ensure that it works well under all

circumstances

Security- the software is regular maintained and patch to prevent vulnerabilities.

cost- the software tends to cost a lot less because it is free to use.

Customizable- since the source code is available to be modified, it can be tweaked

to your needs
Voice Interface- search queries can be inputted into the system through voice

commands

Touch Interface- since he is directly manipulating the screen, it will be a

beneficial way of interacting with the system.

Voice Interface- allows quick feedback without distracting him while driving.

Touch- quick input can be made on the screen.


Menu is suitable and Command Line is unsuitable.

Menu- has the ability to easily list the things that are on sale.

Command Line- requires the user to type the commands which can be

inconvenient.

Ensuring that data is safe from accidental or deliberate damage.

Ensuring the data is free form defects or errors that can result in the

bad information outputs.


Alphanumeric

upper and lower case letters

Length 8-16 characters

numbers

A webpage is a single html document and a website is a collection of

webpages.

URL is a path to a webpage on a server that utilizes a domain name

and structure which matches to an IP address.

Hyperlinks link webpages together by insenting URLS into the page

text thus creating a network of linked pages similar to a web.


Analyze the problem,come up with possible solutions, then choose one

and implement the chosen solution.

Ghantt Chart

CASE study

Questionnaire

ERD Diagram

Propose and Evaluate- coming up with possible solutions then choose one.

Analyze- utilizing fact finding techniques to get to the rest of the problem.

Implement- Putting solution in practice into a real environment.


-P3 can't have 2 inputs and with no output

-E1 can't communicate with E2

-P1 to D1 doesn't have an arrow.


Programme Code

Narrative

Narrative- utilizes to many words and can make it hard to understand.

Procedural

Functional
Repetition/Loop
