Cognitive science‚ in the study of how organisms process information as well carry out life functions. The study of Cognitive science is said to have been originated in the 1940’s and 1950’s when researchers in various fields of science began to develop theories on the mind based on "complex representations and computational procedures" (Thagard‚ Cognitive Science). There are numerous branches of science whose theories contributed to the development of Coginitive Science. These subdivisions include

the computer and its development from a mere calculating device into what seems like a "thinking machine." The birth of the computer was not wholly independent of the other events of this century. The history of the computer is a fascinating story; however‚ it is not the subject of this course. We are concerned with the Theory of Computers‚ which means that we form several abstract mathematical models that will describe with varying degrees of accuracy parts of computers and types of computers and

In the case of Bill Gates‚ he goes to a school that owns a computer terminal connected to a large central computer. This is unusual in the 1960s and 1970s‚ when computers are room-sized devices costing millions of dollars and are owned only by large universities and corporations.

It has its major contribution in development of electronic appliances that can be easily seen every where. At its very beginning it was majorly being used for calculation purposes; however with the passage of time its usage became an essential part of human life. The use of computer technology was then inculcated
