Engineering informatics
The term Engineering Informatics may be related to information engineering (differently understood information processing), computer engineering (development of computer hardware-software systems), or computational engineering (development of software for engineering purposes), among other meanings. This word is used with different context in different countries. In general, some people assume that the central area of interest in informatics is information processing within man-made artificial (engineering) systems, called also computational or computer systems. The focus on artificial systems separates informatics from psychology and cognitive science, which focus on information processing within natural systems (primarily people). However, nowadays these fields have areas where they overlap, e.g.
