what is the difference between computer science and computer applications?

Science is the learning and programming. Applications are what you install on your computer, the programs.

If u wish to join govt service, u should go for Computer Science to avoid any misunderstanding. As far as industry are concerened both r equal

Well, if you have the slightest desire to learn about the design and workings of the computer's hardware then you might want to consider Computer Engineering. If you are interested in programming techniques, operating systems, compilers, data structures, algorithms, software engineering methods etc then computer science may be right for you.\n\nIn computer engineering you will have to deal with the electrical/electronics engineering side of the computer.\n\nAs far as employment opportunities are concerned both have a good demand. Computer engineers can go a step beyond and work with Embedded electronic systems where in order to troubleshoot a program one may have to actually work at the circuit/board level with sophisticated electronic test tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers etc. A computer engineer is also involved in actual circuit level/board level design of the specialized computer on which he/she may develop a particular program.\n\nIn computer engineering program along with the usual computer science classes like programming languages, operating systems, data structures etc you can also expect electrical engineering classes such as circuit analysis, transistor level electronic circuits, logic circuits design and analysis, Microprocessor based systems design and interfacing with the real world analog circuits and sensors etc.\n\nIn my opinion the outlook for computer engineers is likely to be quite good. That said, very good computer scientists who are specialized in networking technologies can also expect a very good outlook.

Computer System & Networking will give you a good understanding of computer hardware and computer networking. You will know how to trouble shoot hardware, software, and network related problems. However, if you would really like to learn about all the inner workingsof a computer and how they inner relate to one another then I would suggest pursuing something in Computer Science or Computer Engineering. In my personal opinion this would be a better choice.

Computer science is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems[1]. Many diverse fields exist within the broader discipline of computer science; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as graphics), while others (such as computational complexity theory) relate to properties of algorithms used in performing computations. Still others focus on the problems involved in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing a computation, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to craft a solution to some concrete computational problem.

i would say it would depend on what you want to your degree to apply to. computer science is a foundational degree that can apply to more careers and be a more powerful option whereas networking pushes you into a career area and can limit you in future career possibilities. both are good options, technology is a strong sector for employment. so there ya go, hope this helped, you can try monster.com and bls.gov for more advice.

Hardware is something you can touch, software is computer program which is stored on a piece of hardware. :)

A process is another name for an application.  Tasks are simply procedures that the computer is to perform.

Computer science is research and development into new algorithms, and research into the capabilities of Turing machines.  This is to be distinguished from software engineering, which is the application of existing algorithms to real-world problems.

Science is field of study that attempts to describe the universe (or some part of it) in terms of observable patterns, and to formulate rules from those patterns that have a predictive value.\n\nTechnology is the name given to the useful (and sometimes not so useful) products developed as a result of scientific endeavour.

Hardware is the physical componentry of a computer system.  Memory chips, mice, monitors, and keyboards are all hardware.  \n\nSoftware is the information stored on the computer, so programs and data are considered to be software.  Basically, if you can email it to someone, it's software.

Computer science is not quite the same thing as software engineering. I'll assume that you meant computer science, and suggest a concept that is theoretically central but not often applicable in practical settings.\n\nI would argue for computability theory - the study of what exactly a computer is and what it can accomplish. Specifically, the concept of an abstract universal Turing machine, and how pretty much every computing machine currently known can be emulated by a TM.\n\nThis is a key underlying concept because it gives an formal definition of what computation actually is and provides a framework for understanding what can and cannot be computed.

Text editors like "Word"; Internet browsers like Firefox or "Internet Explorer"; computer games; pictures viewers, audio and video players like RealPlayer or QuickPlayer.\n\nIn general, application is (almost) any program you can run on computer.\n\nApplication software is one or more applications.

Greetings,\n\nI am about to graduate from Purdue University this May with a degree in computer technology.  Being surrounded by both Computer Science and Computer Engineering however, I can assure you that, between the two of these, computer engineering would be the way to go.\n\nBe aware that the two of these are vastly different.  Make sure your interests lie in a spot that fits.  Computer science will delve into complex algorithms, operating systems, compilers, and an actual science to developing computer programs.  Computer engineering will look at the physical limitations of computer hardware and you will learn more about the "computer guts".  Again, make sure your interests lie accordingly (I mean, I can see from your question that English certainly isn't a favorite subject of yours, so consider the plan of study for each hehe)\n\nIt will be easier for you to make more money with computer engineering.  Unless you're coming from a great school, a computer science degree is starting to be worth less and less;  all those jobs are being shipped overseas.\n\nGood luck.

Theory of computation\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\n\nThe theory of computation is the branch of computer science that deals with whether and how efficiently problems can be solved on a computer. The field is divided into two major branches: computability theory and complexity theory, but both branches deal with formal models of computation.\n\nIn order to perform a rigorous study of computation, computer scientists work with a mathematical abstractions of computers called a model of computation. There are several formulations in use, but the most commonly examined is the Turing machine. A Turing machine can be thought of as a desktop PC with an infinite memory capacity, though it can only access this memory in small discrete chunks. Computer scientists study the Turing machine because it is simple to formulate, can be analyzed and used to prove results, and because it represents what many consider the most powerful possible "reasonable" model of computation. While the infinite memory capacity might be considered an unphysical attribute, for any problem actually solved by a Turing machine the memory used will always be finite, so any problem that can be solved on a Turing machine could be solved on a desktop PC which has enough memory installed.
