This book will help future scientists to become more intelligent
users of computing technology in their practice of science. The
content is suitable for introductory courses on the foundations of
computing and the specific application of computers in different
areas of science. The text presents a set of modules for use in
existing science courses in order to integrate individual aspects
of computational thinking, as well as a set of modules introducing
the computer science concepts needed to understand the computing
involved. These modules guide science students in their independent
learning. The book covers computing applications in such diverse
areas as bioinformatics, chemical kinetics, hydrogeological
modeling, and mechanics of materials, geographic information
systems, flow analysis, the solving of equations, curve fitting,
optimization, and scientific data acquisition. The computing topics
covered include simulations, errors, data representation,
algorithms, XMS, compression, databases, performance, and
complexity.
