Assignment 2

This is my answer in finding out what is the state of computer science research.

There are lot of information and articles about the state of computer science research in the internet and as I examine those articles. I’ve just realize that computer science is all about the study of theoretical foundations of all the information and apply them in the computer systems, and computer science also the study of information, structure, representation and utilization.


Since computer science has many fields like computer graphics. Well about of computer science research is expensive since it’s a research it requires money and also requires to travel in order for the research to be made. One of the articles I have read is the “Computer Science Research in India” the author stated that “Many computer science researchers in India have endeavored to carry out high caliber research in spite of limited infrastructure and resources to conduct and communicate their research.” though the researchers in India have limited resources in the way of communications they try to give a quality research that what should be the attitude of computer science researchers. Well, about its technical topics are: engineering, commerce, algorithms, computations, theory, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and application of computer programs (software) and computer equipment (hardware).

Assignment 1

This is my answers about examining a research paper.

Effect of the Internet on Financial Markets

Internet is worldwide, it is public which many people uses it in order to communicate and make transaction along it. Internet has a great role in our society nowadays since most of us including children know how to use it. And as technology goes by the markets uses it. The study about “The Effect of the Internet on Financial Markets” by Hal R. Varian of School Of Information Management and Systems of the University of California in September 1998 tackles about what are the advantages and disadvantages of Internet in the Financial Markets. About the retail transactions in financial services states that since 1996 there where about 1.5 million of brokerages accounts by 1998 there where 5.3 million of accounts. So it states that the Internet has a great role in our markets. And it is also show that more brokers adopt the on line transaction rather than the full-service brokerages.

Machine-Assisted Election Auditing

An election play an important role in the government since this is the way people chooses the persons who will lead the country. Since many of us know how in our government make the election procedure. This machine-assisted election auditing helps to easily count the votes of the people in minimum span of time. It is wonderful if our government adopt this machine since this machine helps the Comelec to lessen the money paid for the election officers. And lessen the “agawan ng balota” here in the Philippines; also monitors and broadcast the votes of the people easily. And minimize the “dayaan”.

The Demand for Bandwidth

According to the wikipedia free encyclopedia that bandwidth it mostly refers as a bit rate measured in bits and example of it is the network throughput which is the connection of data rate which is also according to Hartley’s law. As we all know that the internet is widely used in our world today for ordinary users they just want to chat and do researches through net they don’t even know what the bandwidth is. But for us as an advance user bandwidth really matters a lot because this states how fast connection of our computer to the net.
