Abstract |
The article discusses how personal computers can be applied to environmental engineering. After explaining some of the differences between mainframe and personal computers, the authors will review the development of personal computers and describe the areas of data management, interactive computation, graphics, and simulation, where personal computers play a prominent role in the transfer of information. Next, they will discuss new trends and developments such as artificial intelligence and their potential impact on environmental engineering, and they will suggest how personal computers might change the practice of environmental engineering in the future. |
