In Engineering
All traditional engineering branches use
software extensively. Engineers use
spreadsheets, more than they ever used
calculators. Engineers use custom software
toolsto design, analyze, and simulate their
own projects, like bridges and power lines.
These projects resemble software in many
respects, because the work exists as
electronic documentsand goes through
analysis,design,implementation, and testing
phases. Software tools for engineers use the
tenets of computer science; as well as the
tenets of calculus, physics, and chemistry.
