About Me

Hi All!

Thank you for coming to my blog! My name is Brittany, but I go by Bri. I have always been someone who enjoyed technology and finding ways to improve processes. I recently found myself entering a new career path after 9 years. I decided I wanted to have a more fulfilling career that I enjoyed what it is I do. I decided to take on a new position and enter this position with an open mind. This new role has opened my eyes to the endless possibilities available in IT field. I decided that it was time to earn my college degree in Information Technology. I am starting this blog to share with others what I am learning in my Fundamentals of Information Technology & Literacy course. I know that there are others that would like to learn some basic concepts in Information Technology. Throughout this course I am hoping to gain a better understanding of Information Technology to help me determine my next career move within the IT world. As of right now I am unsure where I want this journey to take me. I know that the more knowledge I gain will allow me to decide where my destination will be.

 A pplying algorithmic design and data structure techniques in developing structured programs               Although I am no pro to this concept during this course I learned the importance of algorithmic design and data structure while developing structure programs. Of course most people know that computers rely on data and some sort of algorithm to operate. Every person's need when it comes to a computer may defer from one another.

Some commonly used data structures are arrays, linked lists, and stacks. Arrays allow a collection of items to be stored at contigious memory locations.

Post #5 - Computers in the Workplace

  The transportation industries rely heavily on technology. I have been in the transportation industry for 9 years and have already seen the evolution with some of the types of technology that has been used. We use computers not only in the office but on the semi trucks that haul customer's freight. These programs allow the drivers to clock the time they are driving, have GPS that provides directions, allows them to sign up for additional freight, and upload documentation so that they can get paid for the work they do. When I first started the trucking industry the drivers had what was called a QUALCOMM but they have since be upgrade to tablets in their trucks. Initially with the QUALCOMM the functionality was minimal. Drivers could not upload their paperwork with the QUALCOMM, they could not communicate as freely and they could not search for their next load. Now with the tablets they have so much more functionality available while they are traveling over the road. I can foresee i...
