What Is A Computer?
A computer is an electronic device, operating under the control of instructions (software) stored in its own memory unit, that can accept data (input), manipulate data (process), and produce information (output) from the processing. Generally, the term is used to describe a collection of devices that function together as a system.

Data and Information
• All computer processing requires data, which is a collection of raw facts, figures and symbols, such as numbers, words, images, video and sound, given to the computer during the input phase.
• Computers manipulate data to create information. Information is data that is organized, meaningful, and useful.
• During the output Phase, the information that has been created is put into some form, such as a printed report.
• The information can also be put in computer storage for future use.

Why Is A Computer So Powerful?
• The ability to perform the information processing cycle with amazing speed.
• Reliability (low failure rate).• Accuracy.• Ability to store huge amounts of data and
information.• Ability to communicate with other computers.

How Does a Computer Know what to do?
• It must be given a detailed list of instructions, called a compute program or software, that tells it exactly what to do.
• Before processing a specific job, the computer program corresponding to that job must be stored in memory.
• Once the program is stored in memory the compute can start the operation by executing the program instructions one after the other.

The Mouse
Is a pointing device which is used to control the movement of a mouse pointer on the screen to make selections from the screen. A mouse has one to five buttons. The bottom of the mouse is flat and contains a mechanism that detects movement of the mouse.

The Central processing Unit
The central processing unit (CPU) contains electronic circuits that cause processing to occur. The CPU interprets instructions to the computer, performs the logical and arithmetic processing operations, and causes the input and output operations to occur. It is considered the “brain” of the computer.

Memory
Memory also called Random Access Memory or RAM (temporary memory) is the main memory of the computer. It consists of electronic components that store data including numbers, letters of the alphabet, graphics and sound. Any information stored in RAM is lost when the computer is turned off.
Read Only Memory or ROM is memory that is etched on a chip that has start-up directions for your computer. It is permanent memory.

Amount Of RAM In Computers
The amount of memory in computers is typically measured in kilobytes or megabytes. One kilobyte (K or KB) equals approximately 1,000 memory locations and one megabyte (M or MB) equals approximately one million locations A memory location, or byte, usually stores one character.
Therefore, a computer with 8 MB of memory can store approximately 8 million characters. One megabyte can hold approximately 500 pages of text information.

Output Devices
Output devices make the information resulting from the processing available for use. The two output devices more commonly used are the printer and the computer screen.
The printer produces a hard copy of your output, and the computer screen produces a soft copy of your output.

Storage Devices
Auxiliary storage devices are used to store data when they are not being used in memory. The most common types of auxiliary storage used on personal computers are floppy disks, hard disks and CD-ROM drives.

Floppy DisksA floppy disk is a portable, inexpensive storage medium that consists of a thin, circular, flexible plastic disk with a magnetic coating enclosed in a square-shaped plastic shell.

Structure Of Floppy Disks
• Initially Floppy disks were 8-inches wide, they then shrank to 5.25 inches, and today the most widely used floppy disks are 3.5 inches wide and can typically store 1.44 mega bytes of data.
• A floppy disk is a magnetic disk, which means that it used magnetic patterns to store data.
• Data in floppy disks can be read from and written to. • Formatting is the process of preparing a disk for reading
and writing.• A track is a narrow recording band that forms a full circle
on the surface of the disk.

• The disk’s storage locations are divided into pie-shaped sections called sectors.
• A sectors is capable of holding 512 bytes of data.
• A typical floppy stores data on both sides and has 80 tracks on each side with 18 sectors per track.

Hard Disks
• Another form of auxiliary storage is a hard disk. A hard disk consists of one or more rigid metal plates coated with a metal oxide material that allows data to be magnetically recorded on the surface of the platters.
• The hard disk platters spin at a high rate of speed, typically 5400 to 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM).
• Storage capacites of hard disks for personal computers range from 10 GB to 120 GB (one billion bytes are called a gigabyte).

Compact Discs
• A compact disk (CD), also called an optical disc, is a flat round, portable storage medium that is usually 4.75 inch in diameter.
• A CD-ROM (read only memory), is a compact disc that used the same laser technology as audio CDs for recording music. In addition it can contain other types of data such as text, graphics, and video.
• The capacity of a CD-ROM is 650 MB of data.

Computer Software
Computer software is the key to productive use of computers. Software can be categorized into two types:
• Operating system software
• Application software.

Operating System Software
Operating system software tells the computer how to perform the functions of loading, storing and executing an application and how to transfer data.
Today, many computers use an operating system that has a graphical user interface (GUI) that provides visual clues such as icon symbols to help the user. Microsoft Windows 98 is a widely used graphical operating system. DOS (Disk Operating System) is an older but still widely used operating system that is text-based.

Application Software
Application Software consists of programs that tell a computer how to produce information. Some of the more commonly used packages are:
• Word processing
• Electronic spreadsheet
• Database
• Presentation graphics

Word Processing
• Word Processing software is used to create and print documents. A key advantage of word processing software is that users easily can make changes in documents.

Electronic Spreadsheets
• Electronic spreadsheet software allows the user to add, subtract, and perform user-defined calculations on rows and columns of numbers. These numbers can be changed and the spreadsheet quickly recalculates the new results.

Presentation Graphics
• Presentation graphic software allows the user to create documents called slides to be used in making the presentations. Using special projection devices, the slides display as they appear on the computer screen.

Fifth Generation Computers
• Fifth Generation - Present and Beyond: Artificial IntelligenceFifth generation computing devices, based on artificial intelligence, are still in development, though there are some applications, such as voice recognition, that are being used today. The use of parallel processing and superconductors is helping to make artificial intelligence a reality. Quantum computation and molecular and nanotechnology will radically change the face of computers in years to come. The goal of fifth-generation computing is to develop devices that respond to natural language input and are capable of learning and self-organization.

Physical Limits
• Chip designers are running up against the laws of physics. Ten years from now, chips will run at 30 GHz and complete a trillion operations per second. Unfortunately, with today's design technologies, those chips would be putting out the same amount of heat, proportionally, as a nuclear power plant.

Physical Limits & CPUs
• We have “hit the wall” of physics in our CPU clock speeds
• Intel announced in 2004 that it would not attempt to make processors that run at speeds greater than 3.6 GHZ

• Few argue that the next generation of computers will be nearly invisible, meaning that they will blend in with everyday objects. Flexible ink-like circuitry will be printed onto plastic or sprayed onto various other substrates, such as clothes.

Characteristics of a Computer
• Speed: Computers provide the processing speed essential to our fast-paced society. The execution of an instruction, such as multiplying pay-rate with number of hours worked – are measured in milliseconds,microseconds, nanoseconds and Pico seconds. A computer speed is generally expressed in megahertz (MHz), millions of machine cycles per second.
