subject fact

computer engineering developed in the 1980's 2001-08-30 14:55:01.0
is a subtopic of 1.3 - Software Engineering as a Branch of the Engineering Profession
is concerned with the design of computer systems that involve both hardware and software components
is a kind of engineering

engineering has economic constraints
resources are finite
it is not worth doing something unless the benefit gained from it outweighs its cost, and
if somebody else can perform some particular task more cheaply or faster than us, they will succeed instead of us
