    Study Notes

    Computer Science

    Artificial Intelligence (AI)

    • Definition: AI is a field of computer science that focuses on creating intelligent machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as learning, problem-solving, and decision-making.
    • Subfields:
      • Machine Learning (ML): a type of AI that enables machines to learn from data without being explicitly programmed.
      • Natural Language Processing (NLP): a subfield of AI that deals with the interaction between computers and humans in natural language.
      • Computer Vision: a subfield of AI that focuses on enabling computers to interpret and understand visual information from the world.
    • Applications:
      • Robotics: AI is used to program robots to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as assembly, welding, and material handling.
      • Image Recognition: AI is used in image recognition systems to identify objects, people, and patterns in images.

    Database Management

    • Definition: Database management refers to the process of designing, implementing, and maintaining databases to store and manage data efficiently.
    • Key Concepts:
      • Data Modeling: the process of creating a conceptual representation of data structures and relationships.
      • Data Normalization: the process of organizing data to minimize data redundancy and improve data integrity.
      • Database Query Languages: languages used to manage and retrieve data from databases, such as SQL.
    • Database Types:
      • Relational Databases: databases that organize data into one or more tables with rows and columns.
      • NoSQL Databases: databases that do not use the traditional table-based relational model, such as key-value, document, and graph databases.

    Software Engineering

    • Definition: Software engineering is the application of engineering principles and techniques to the design, development, testing, and maintenance of software systems.
    • Key Concepts:
      • Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC): a framework used to plan, design, build, test, and deploy software systems.
      • Requirements Analysis: the process of identifying and documenting software requirements.
      • Design Patterns: reusable solutions to common software design problems.
    • Software Development Methodologies:
      • Agile Development: an iterative and incremental approach to software development that focuses on flexibility and customer satisfaction.
      • Waterfall Development: a linear approach to software development that follows a sequential phase-by-phase approach.
