corresponding development in the concept of responsibility as it applies to computing practitioners" (107). Gotterbarn believes that computer professionals should be perfect and are responsible for any effects caused by their coding. I disagree with Gotterbarn on this matter. In this essay‚ I will show that Gotterbarn’s thoughts and beliefs on professional responsibility in computer ethics are unreasonable and therefore should not be applied. Gotterbarn begins his article with examples of problems that resulted

Computer Science Notes - Networking (3.1.6 -3.1.11) Protocol A protocol is basically a set of rules and regulations that govern how data is to be transmitted across a network. It defines the regulations regarding software as well as hardware. To enable two/more devices to communicate‚ they must follow the same protocol - an agreed format for transmission of data between devices. The protocol determines things such as: Type of error checking to be used‚ data compression methods‚ etc. Packet

Few areas of my education have stimulated me to think as much as my undergraduate courses in Data Structures‚ Theory of Computation and Computer Programming have. When I watch videos of Pranav Mistry demonstrating his Sixth Sense technology or when I used Google Wave for the first time or even when I log into Facebook everyday and come up against some new feature‚ what I feel is a sense of marvel. Here are innovations that keep evolving not only technically but also hold infinite scope for creativity
