• Computer technician also involves designing and troubleshooting internal computer networks.
  This includes running Ethernet cables, crimping wires, configuring switches, network users to printer, and configuring set-up wireless network.
• Our network technicians build and maintain computer networks used by government institutions. They configure all Networks linking desktop computers allow users to send electronic mail (e-mail) and to share data, computer applications, and Internet connections.
• They plan the Government's computer networks and then implement the planned network they also existing computer networks and troubleshoot problems as they arise.
• Planning a computer network entails analyzing costs and needs of a company and then selecting the appropriate media (e.g., twisted-pair copper wire, coaxial cable, fiber-optic cable, wireless) for a given situation.
• Computer network technicians also recommend appropriate network addressing systems, appropriate layouts for various network configurations, and appropriate connection devices, account management and security.
• Much of the work involved in implementing a network consists of installing, configuring, and resolving conflicts among different hardware used in the network, such as network adapters.
• Administering and troubleshooting a network entails identifying and resolving network performance problems.

What is Software Development?

Software development (also known as Application Development; Software Design, Designing Software, Software Engineering, Software Application Development, Enterprise Application Development, and Platform Development) is the development of a software product in a planned and structured process.
The term software development is often used to refer to the activity of computer programming which is the process of writing and maintaining the source code, whereas the broader sense of the term includes all that is involved between the conceptions of the desired software through to the final manifestation of the software. Therefore, software development may include research, new development, modification, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products. For larger software systems, usually developed by a team of people, some form of process is typically followed to guide the stages of production of the software.
software can be produced for a variety of purposes - the three most common purposes are to meet specific needs, to meet a perceived need of some set of potential users.
