Computer System:

One or more computers and attached peripherals that may be connected to other computers by a telecommunications network.

A combination of components designed to process and store data. It comprises at least one input device, a processing unit, an output device, and a storage device, and may contain a communications device. The components include the cpu, buses, main memory (RAM and ROM) and peripherals.

A collective term for a computer and everything attached to it--printer, monitor, CD ROM drives, disk drives, scanners, microphones, and what-not.

A computer system is the combination of hardware and software. A typical computer system has memory and set of states that define the relationship between the systems inputs and outputs.

Computer Sciences:

Computer science - the branch of engineering science that studies (with the aid of computers) computable processes and structures.

Computer science is the study of the storage, transformation and transfer of information. The field encompasses both the theoretical study of algorithms (including their design, efficiency and application) and the practical problems involved in implementing them in terms of computer software and hardware.

Computer science (or computing science) is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems.[1][2][3] Computer science has many sub-fields; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as computer graphics), while others relate to properties of computational problems (such as computational complexity theory). Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing computations, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to solve specific computational problems. A further subfield, human-computer interaction, focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful, usable and universally accessible to people.

Hope that helps!

Computer System:
A complete collection of computer components that is hardware, software, peripherals and communication links are making up a single computer system.

Computer Sciences:
The field of study in which we study about computer structure, computer operation and all about computer is called as Computer Sciences.
