University of Illinois Urbana Champaign/University of Michigan Ann Arbor for undergraduate computer science?
I am a computer science student transferring from a community college this fall’08, have been accepted by Purdue, U Virginia, U of michigan and U illinois for computer science program. I know Illinois seems to have a better comp sci program (only a level below MIT, Stanford, Berkeley and Carnegie Mellon) but they only ranked 38th in the nation, while michigan whose comp sci dept not as good as Illinois ranked higher(25th). Can somebody give me an advice where I should go to?
Hey, I live in Illinois, go to U of I, they have a great reputation for everything. Their computer science programs are better than U of Virginia, and u of Michigan and all those other schools . Its tied at 38 with wisconsin and UCSD, but U of I is really ranked 36th in the nation( 6th best public school in the U.S) So go to U of I you will love it my brother goes there. and no other public school besides U of michigan is only a level under Stanford and MIT.
Discrete mathematics is quickly becoming one of the most important areas of mathematical research, with applications to cryptography, linear programming, coding theory and the theory of computing. This book is aimed at undergraduate mathematics and computer science students interested in developing a feeling for what mathematics is all about, where mathematics can be helpful, and what kinds of que…
University studies in computing require the ability to pass from a concrete problem to an abstract representation, reason with the abstract structure, and return with useful solutions to the specific situation. The tools for developing these skills are in part qualitative â concepts such as set, relation, function, and structures such as trees and well-founded orders. They are also in part…
The aim of this textbook is to provide undergraduate students with an introduction to the basic theoretical models of computability, and to develop some of the model’s rich and varied structure. Students who have already some experience with elementary discrete mathematics will find this a well-paced first course. A number of supplementary chapters introduce more advanced concepts. The first part …
UC Davis student pushes new math unit: ‘Hella’
Austin Sendek, a UC Davis physics student, has started a petition to establish a new, scientifically accepted prefix, “hella,” to be used in front of units of weight, distance or computer storage. Advanced Topics in Programming Languages Series:…

Data Mining, the automatic extraction of implicit and potentially useful information from data, is increasingly used in commercial, scientific and other application areas. This book explains and explores the principal techniques of Data Mining: for classification, generation of association rules and clustering. It is written for readers without a strong background in mathematics or statistics a…
Understanding the main principles and algorithms underlying a modern operating system is essential in undergraduate computer science. The complexity of this subject, however, means that mastering it requires significant practical experience. This unique book accomplishes just that: it teaches introductory subjects in OS design and implementation through hands-on engagement with OSP 2, the next gen…
