record  details  etc.  The  police  department
             uses computers to search for criminals using

             fingerprint matching etc.




             Health Care

             Computers  are  making  health  care  more  efficient  and

             accurate while helping providers bring down costs. Many
             different health care procedures now involve computers,
             from  ultrasound  and  magnetic  resonance  imaging  to
             laser eye surgery and fetal monitoring. Surgeons now can
             use  robotic  surgical  devices  to  perform  delicate
             operations and even to conduct surgeries remotely. New

             virtual-reality  technologies  are  being  used  to  train  new  surgeons  in  cutting-edge
             techniques.

             Military

             Computers are the main tools which help in developing missiles and other equipment
             in  the  defence  system.  Designing  and  the  maintenance  are  possible  only  through
             computers. Computer builds the links between the soldiers and commanders through
             the  satellite.  Construction  of  weapons  and  controlling  their  function  is  not  possible

             without the aid of computers.
             The list of the criminals and the records of the cops are maintained regularly in the
             system.


             Science and Engineering
             Scientists and engineers use computers for performing complex scientific calculations,

             for designing and making drawings  and also for simulating and testing the designs.
             Complex scientific applications like the launch of the rockets, space exploration etc.
             are not at all possible without the use of computers.

             How does Computer Work?

             A computer is an electronic device that accepts data, processes data, generates output

             and stores data. The concept of generating output information from the input data is
             also referred to as input-process-output         concept.
