Computer Use Advantages and disadvantages Some Advantages are : I found this information on line! Therefore - 1. communication is improved‚ 2. pay bill’s online‚ recharge your phone online 3. people have access to things they would not have had before (for instance old people who cannot leave the house they can buy groceries online) 4. Computers make life easier - mainly people benefit from it in the sense that it makes doing things a lot easier. 5. one is having the internet

What is Human Computer Interaction? Human–computer Interaction (HCI) involves the study‚ planning‚ and design of the interaction between people (users) and computers. It is often regarded as the intersection of computer science‚ behavioral sciences‚ design and several other fields of study. The term was popularized by Card‚ Moran‚ and Newell in their seminal 1983 book‚ "The Psychology of Human-Computer Interaction"‚ although the authors first used the term in 1980‚ and the first known use was in

Advantages: >Computer simulation can allow you to see how a system might respond before you design or modify it. This avoids mistakes and one can try different ideas before the real product is produced‚ making it cheaper as there is no need to make different prototypes every time and testing them out. Example: It is safer and cheaper to use a model and simulation for some real world objects such as nuclear power plants. >It is an advantage to find this out in a model rather than testing the real

Advantages of Computers Disabled: Computers have changed many disabled people’s lives‚ especially those who are unable to leave their house because of boundaries such as wheelchairs. For people who are confined to wheelchairs‚ computers give them a chance to experience many things that would not be possible for them otherwise. They can go to a particular museum web site and learn about a Van Gogh painting‚ or they can go to a science web site and learn about NASA and the space shuttle

Assignment 4: The Human-Computer Interface CIS- 106 Assignment 4: The Human-Computer Interface Haptic feedback‚ often referred to as simply "haptics"‚ is the use of the sense of touch in a user interface design to provide information to an end user. When referring to mobile phones and similar devices‚ this generally means the use of vibrations from the device’s vibration alarm to denote that a touchscreen button has been pressed. In this particular example‚ the phone would vibrate slightly

April/16/2010 D906 Are Computers as Compatible as Humans? The computer is not capable of thinking in the same manner as humans do. I disagree with those that view a computer as similar to humans in accordance to the compatibility. Although‚ computers have similar dimensions and functions like humans‚ yet‚ they are neither conscious nor aware of their surroundings. As a result‚ computer cannot actually think in the same sense as we do. Initially‚ I want to define what I consider a human to be and its behaviour
