By: Alexander Hjalmarsson

A computer from being a scientific tool to conduct research has taken many forms and have become as integral part of our lives. We see different forms of computers all around us laptops, palm pilots, tablet PC's and our own old faithful desktop PC's. We have to admit the fact that we can not live or resist life without a computer in our homes.

With the advent of computers to our homes the science behind it too changed. Computers were no longer huge cupboard sized gizmos which only engineers could operate they had to be pleasing and user friendly. They also had to be in shape which was more pleasing than our earlier friend the television. So there was a huge spurge of designs and methods of making a computer cute. We now have study of ergonomics which goes into creation of computer accessories like keyboards, mice etc.

This was the hardware part, the software also had to be user friendly, for you to read this article on internet there are at any given point of time four remote servers and millions of pixels on your monitor are working in harmony. This is the coordination and the high end software part. What about the display? Your browser? How should it take up all the complicated work and simplify the process to the end user. Well this is where the software came into picture, software which integrates, calculates and provides simple front end.

Computer science also gave in to related developments like internet, World Wide Web and extended networks. This made the entire world a tiny place. Now you have information at your fingertips and few clicks away. At the same time the cyber world has given rise to many cyber crimes too. Cyber crime is no longer a soft offence in many countries it's turned criminal and now a day's security has become big issue over the internet.

Security also has become big business, security not just to your hardware but also to your software. There are stray viruses over the internet waiting to get into your machine and disturb the way you work on your system. There are anti virus software's available to protect your computer from getting troubled.

Concluding this piece computer science is very similar to apples on a tree. As we all know when we discover the apple is a tasty fruit apples do appear to have discovered a way to lure us. So all Adams and Eves should watch out for the apples which they eat. Too much is definitely too bad in the cyber world.
