Types of networks (Answers: revision)
LAN: Local area network. It is a network that is used in homes and offices and small buildings. It is used to connect computers, printers and other devices together in a local environment. It is used in a single location i.e. a single building.
Don’t forget that LAN can be can be wired, which will use Ethernet (802.3) or it can be wireless and that will use Wi-FI: 802.11 standard.
Users: home users, office users.

Types of networks (Answers: revision)
WAN: Wide Area Network. It is a type of network used in a large geographical location. It is essentially a collection of LANs connected together over a large distance.
The reason why we have LANs together is imagine two companies who have a network in Manchester and one in London, they are in separate locations so a WAN connects to the networks into one.
Users: Home users, shopping online. Office workers or workers accessing resources.

Main components: CPU
The CPU stands for Central Processing Unit Every computer has at least one CPU or
microprocessor. These devices run the programs (code) and they undertake input/output operations to other parts of the computer.
The CPU has many parts: Arithmetic logic unit, control unit and registers.
The speed of the CPU is measured in Gigahertz meaning a billion cycles per second
The higher the GHZ, the more instructions a CPU can perform
![Page 33: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Main components: CPU
There are two main manufacturers of CPU, Intel and AMD
Example of a CPU, this will on your motherboard and on top of it will be a heat sink to keep it cool.
![Page 34: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Main components: CPU (ALU)
This is part of the CPU and it perform Arithmetic Logic Unit
Arithmetic is going to be calculations and logic is going to be things like comparison
![Page 35: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Control Unit
The control unit has 3 roles: It controls and monitors hardware attached to
the computer to make sure that commands given to it by software is used. Think about when you send something to the printer, the control unit checks to see the instructions sent are correct.
It controls the input and output, so your mouse and keyboard instructions
It controls the flow of data within the CPU
![Page 36: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Registers
These are used to store small amounts of data in the form of a byte. Which is 8 bits.
Registers are used to hold the address in RAM so the CPU knows where the next machine code instruction will come from and where to send the results of a calculation .
![Page 37: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Task 1 (10 minutes)
Q1) Explain what analogue data is Give 2 examples of where analogue data is
used
Q2) Explain what digital data is Give 2 examples of where digital data is used
![Page 42: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Task 1 Answers
Analogue data occurs all the time and around us. For example, the human voice, temperature and instruments are some examples.
Key thing to remember: Analogue data changes constantly with time
Digital data is a sequence of discrete values or numbers, such as digital clocks and Morse code. Computers use digital data and this is in the form of binary, which is a numbering system.
![Page 43: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Why do we convert analogue data?
The reason why we convert data is because if we have analogue data i.e. human voice, that needs to be converted into analogue before it can be recorded
This is because the computer needs to interact and be able to process that data
Don’t forget that computers can protect digital data by encrypting them. If the data is encrypted then it means that it is kept secure so if anyone tries to access it, it will not be able to understand the data.
![Page 44: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

Question
Why do we think about computer security? All computers in technology are at risk They all store some sensitive data Individuals are always looking for new ways
of attacking systems Bots, botnet, zombie and bit coin mining Data that is transferred through using a
website is also a security issue, think about forms

Virus: a computer virus is a malicious program that attaches itself to files. The files are called hosts. They are generally spread through the use of emails i.e. in the form of attachments. The host, i.e. file can be spread across different devices i.e. each time you copy the file, you are spreading the virus. Think of it like a human virus.
Viruses cause damage to computers i.e. data.

Worm: A worm is a malicious program. It is a program that replicate itself and spreads to different networks. When it replicates, it uses resources and slow down the computer.
It spreads across using computer networks. A worm does not attach itself to anything
compared to a virus Worms cause damage to networks and
viruses corrupt system files Some worms just spread across different
networks and do not cause any damage

Spyware: Spyware is not malicious and in most cases it will not cause any damage to the computer. Spyware is classed as privacy in case software which means that they generally track your browsing history, the things you have purchased etc..
There are some spyware that can be a nuisance and slow down your computer
The software will collect information without the user’s knowledge and that is why it is a security risk

Software
Software is a program that runs on a computer that has a processor (microprocessor).
The software will be coded by a programmer and it will be coded using a particular language.
The software may not work on all platforms just like an app that is on IOS may not be available for Android users.
The software allows you to control the operations of the computer by controlling the peripheral and processing

Task 1:
Find out what off-the-shelf software is Give an example
Find out what custom-made software Give an example if you can
Who would use each software and why would a business use custom-made software
![Page 71: Lesson 1: Learning outcome A Revision Topics covered: Types of networks: WAN/LAN/PAN (3G)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649ddf5503460f94ad84cb/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Task 1:
Off-the-shelf: Software that has been published to the
public. This is available for download or purchase from retail stores. These are usually well tested and generally cheaper than custom-made software.
Thorough testing means there will be less bugs, i.e. errors and there will also be good support and resources/tutorials to use to learn about the software.

Task 1:
Custom-made: Program that is written for the client
specifically. This will be tailored towards the client’s requirements.
This is also known bespoke software This type of program is expensive and takes
a long time to make, months if not weeks Why do you think organisations would use
this?
