2. PERSONAL COMPUTERS, TYPES AND COMPUTER PARTS

Types of computers vary according to their size and power: Mainframe large, powerful, multi-user and multi task; Minicomputer, smaller than mainframe; Personal computer (PC): desktop, workstation, portable, laptop, notebook; Server: provides service on a network. It usually has a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) which automatically provides electricity supply to allow the server to shut itself down properly if the main supply fails.

The most important part of the computer is the processor. It processes the data and controls the computer. There are two main types of memory: RAM (random access memory) holds the programme instructions and the data that is used by the processor. ROM (read only memory) holds the programme instructions and settings required to start up the computer. Combination of the processor and the memory is CPU (central processing unit). Other parts, connected to the CPU are known as peripherals. These include input devices, output devices, storage devices and communication devices. Input devices include: keyboards, scanners, barcode readers, microphones, etc. Output devices include monitors, printers, plotters, loudspeakers and headphones. Storage devices include magnetic tape, diskettes, hard disks, CD- roms, CD disks. A common communication device is modem used for converting digital signals to analogue signals and vice versa to allow a computer to be connected to the ordinary telephone system. A set of connectors used for carrying signals between the different parts of a computer is known as a bus. When comparing computers the power of the computer is important. This is mainly determined by the speed and capacity (size) of each part of the computer. Speed is measured in hertz (Hz), capacity is measured in bytes (B) where 1 byte = 8 bits (binary digits) = 1 character. Communication is provided between application programmes (wordprocessors, drawing programmes, etc.) and the computer hardware (physical components of a computer system) by a set of programmes known as the operating system e.g. Microsoft Windows. Say whether the following statements are true or false true false Types of computers are determined by their brand names x Notebook is a personal computer X Server is normally equipped with a UPS X UPS does not run the computer X Processor also controls the computer X RAM and ROM are computer parts X CPU is combination of the processor and the memory x Keyboard is an input device x Headphones are a storage device x CD ROM is an output device x Modem connects a computer to telephone x Speed and capacity determine the power of the computer x Expressions in column A and definitions in column B are wrong. Join them correctly.

3. COMPUTER SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, AND APPLICATIONS PROGRAMMES

Software is the word used to refer to programmes, i.e. sets of computer instructions written in a computer language and data that is input, processed and output by a computer system. Application programmes are programmes that allow the user to do various types of work on a computer e.g. wordprocessors, databases. A set of related application programmes is referred to as a package. Some most common application programmes are the following: Wordprocessors for creating and editing texts Spreadsheets for performing calculations using formulae Databases for storing data so that it can be easily searched and sorted Graphics for drawing Games for playing fast action games Accounts for keeping business accounts Payroll for calculating salaries email for sending electronic mail messages PIM Personal Information Manager for keeping track of appointments, address book, tasks list. Some application programmes, such as wordprocessors, spreadsheets and databases, are commonly referred to as office programmes because they are commonly used in a typical office. Office packages such as Microsoft Office are sets of interrelated office programmes. Computer hardware includes: PC common name for an IBM compatible personal computer Network computers connected together Server a powerful computer that stores and allows access to data files on a network Printer with the help of a photosensitive drum it deposits toner powder on the paper CD –ROM a compact disk for storing large amount of data Fill in the Missing Words Sets of computer instructions written in a computer language and data that is input, processed and output by a computer system is called software. Application programmes allow the user to do various types of work on a computer. A set of related application programmes is referred to as a package. Word processors allows creating and editing texts. Calculations are performed with the help of spreadsheets. Data is stored in databases. Graphics is used for games. Accounts are used for keeping business accounts. PIM is our personal information manager. Payroll is used for calculating salaries. Fill the gaps with the words given the square Packages storing network hardware referred stores Application programmes, such as wordprocessors, spreadsheets and databases, are commonly referred to as office programmes because they are commonly used in a typical office. Office packages such as Microsoft Office are sets of interrelated office programmes. Basic computer hardware is PC, network, server, printer, CD ROM. Server is a powerful computer that stores and allows access to data files on a network. CD –ROM is a compact disk for storing large amount of data.

4. THE ALMIGHTY INTERNET

The internet is the connection of networks across the world. Various services are made available on internet such as : email (electronic mail) which allows sending and receiving text messages

Page 4: prvi

IRC (Internet Relay Chat) which enables chatting to other users using text messages in real time (immediately while users are logged on to the system) FTP (file transfer protocol) makes possible copying files between computers on a network. Copying files from a server computer to a client computer is known as downloading and copying from a client to a server is uploading. Telnet (telephone network) permits logging on to your local server from across a network communications systems at a distance e.g. from another country. Users communicate mostly in written form, however there is also video and audio conferencing which permit speech as well.Most computer mediated communication (CMC) is asynchronous, i.e. participants are not on line at the same time and there are delays between messages. On the other hand synchronous CMC is on line almost at the same time. An ASP (application service provider) can rent applications to users, the ASP provides the software, manages the hardware and provides storage place, security tools and physical links to customers. The user can be provided remote access to a wide variety of programmes, not only email but advanced packages, complex business applications, expensive specialist tools, e-commerce, etc. In this way users are given more flexibility, they don’t have to upgrade existing programmes or deal with viruses. The only requirement the user has to fulfil is having a broadband network connection or a leased line and dependence on the ASP to provide a secure, reliable, readily available service. Say whether the following statements are true or false

True False Rather few services are available on internet

5.THE FABULOUS WWW

The World Wide Web (or www or the Web) is a service on the internet. It consists of sets of linked documents known as webpages which can be viewed using a programme called browser. The links on a webpage contain the web address of the webpage that will be displayed if the user clicks on the link. When a user clicks on a link, the browser programme contacts a server computer known as DNS (Domain Name System) server to look up the IP (Internet Protocol) of the remote Web server computer. The DNS has a stored table of names and addresses of nodes (a network terminal or point where a computer is connected to a network) on the internet. The request for the linked page is then sent to a computer or electronic device known as a router that uses the internet address obtained form the DNS server to route the request. The message requesting the webpage is divided into small sections called packets and each separate data packet is passed from router to router until they all reach the remote Web server where they are put back together again. The remote Web server sends the requested webpage back to the browser computer that made the request in a similar way using the IP address of the browser computer to determine the best available route for the each packet. When the packets arrive at the browser computer, they are combined and the requested webpage is displayed in the browser. Most users connect to the internet, using a modem, through a server and router owned by an ISP (internet service provider). To attract users to connect through their system, ISPs offer various options including: an unlimited number of email addresses with filtering of email to remove junk mail, unlimited webspace for setting up your own website and virus checking facilities Give short answers to these questions What is a webpage? A set of linked documents on a web network Which programme allows viewing webpages? browser What happens when a user clicks on the link?

6. FUTURE COMPUTERS

In the short term computers are certainly going to become more powerful and they’ll also get cheaper and consequently much more commonly available. They will be integrated with other devices. Flat panel screens will certainly replace cathode ray tube monitors almost completely because they take up less space and use less power. They look better as well. There’s likely to be devices used for security, biometric devices for scanning your eye or taking your fingerprints. They’ll be used instead of passwords. Colour laser printers are becoming cheaper, so more printing will be done in colour. The shape and design of computers are likely to change and become much more varied because motherboards can now be constructed in a more flexible form. On the software side, companies are trying hard to improve voice control, so you’ll be able to talk to your computer to control it without using a keyboard. There is great development in media centre computers. This type of computer makes it easy to record video, play DVDs, listen to music and watch TV. The sale of software will change too. Instead of buying individual packages, people may rent the components they need – wordprocessors or whatever – and connect to them over the internet. Service provider will make different components available and users will be charged a fee for the ones they use. In the long term they won’t be able to make computers any more powerful using electronics, so other methods may come in for the data signals in the computer. Perhaps laser light or even quantum methods will be used. Computers will probably be integrated more with TV systems and with telephony and become much more communication devices. It is likely that much smaller devices will be made, probably built into clothing so that you can walk about wearing a computer which will allow you to communicate wherever you go. At home our fridges, cookers and other devices almost certainly will be computer controlled. In the longer term there may even be devices implanted into our bodies to help people with disabilities. Computers might be implanted into human brain. We might not call them computers in the future, but they’ll be everywhere. Fill in the missing words In the future computers will be available to most users. They will be integrated with other devices. Ray tube monitors have been replaced by (plat) flat panel screen. There will be better devices used for security, biometric devices for scanning your eye or taking your fingerprints. Since colour laser printers have become cheaper, more printing is done in colour. The shape and design of computers have changed and become much more varied because motherboard can now be constructed in a more flexible form. On the software side, companies are trying hard to improve voice control, so you’ll be able to talk to your computer to control it without using a keyboard. Fill the gaps with the words given the square integrated provider controlled rent fee implanted Media centre computers have developed tremendously. In this filed it is now possible to rent the components instead of buying individual packages, people can simply connect to them over the internet. Service provider makes different components available and users are charged a fee for the use. The most recent methods being used are laser light or even quantum methods will be used. Computers are already integrated with TV systems and with telephony and have become communication devices. At the latest Cebit Fair very small computers, built into a suit have been exhibited. We could see a user walking around in the suit and communicating via his computer in any situation. Most recent home appliances are already computer controlled. A great deal of optimism brings the fact that computer like devices have already been implanted into disabled bodies to help people to be mobile again. Researches are being carried out about implanting them into human brain.

7. TRADITIONAL PUBLISHIG VERSUS ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING

Page 7: prvi

Various persons have given their views about the issue: Peter, a telecommunications engineer: ‘I need information quickly, it’s a vital part of my life. Every technology book in my specialism is out of date before it gets printed, so I don’t buy technical books. I go straight to the research groups who publish on the Web. Electronic books make good sense to me. Publishing something like a laser printer manual is just a waste of paper. What we need is an electronic version available anywhere and updated regularly.’ Anne, a writer: ‘What I like about it is the fact that my books are available all over the world. It is possible to get them in countries where English language books are hard to get. It doesn’t matter if you live in Beijing or Buenos Aires, people can read my books anywhere.’ George, an e-publisher: ‘It’s much cheaper to publish electronically than to print. It means we can take risks. We can publish book a traditional publisher wouldn’t publish because they have a smaller readership. By 2025 electronic publishing will have caught up with traditional publishing.’ Edward, a developer of an ebook reader: ‘Our reader is the size of a paperback. It holds about 200 books at a time. You can download books over the internet in a few minutes and you can read for twenty hours before recharging the battery. There’s a back light so you can read in any conditions. The print size can be adjusted to any size you like. I’m confident it will replace all the throw away books we read when we travel, technical books that are out of date as soon as they are printed. It’s just right for schools. Children have to carry far too many books. An ebook can hold about 150,000 pages of text, so you could have all of your schoolbooks for a year in a paper-sized package.’ Mandy, a keen reader: ‘I don’t like reading off a computer screen. I like the look and the feel of books and the fact that you can take them anywhere and who’s going to steal a paperback? Paper lasts from 50 to 500 years. Most electronic storage media are obsolete in ten to twenty years. Magnetic tape stretches, CDs delaminate. Printed books are still the best way to preserve knowledge. Give short answers to these questions Name two advantages of a technical book in electronic version updates, cheaper What is the main advantage of a book available in e-version? Updates, availability Which type of publishing is currently still prevailing? Traditional printing, putting edition Are there any good points in e-books for school goers? Lighter, capacity Name three disadvantages of an e-book. Bad way of reading (for eyes), computer, access to internet What are you in favour of? Both, but prefer books Justify your decision with three good arguments. Better enjoyment in reading, re-reading, will always be there Fill in the chart with a suitable adjective/noun/verb

8. SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE SECURITY There are a variety of security measures that cam be used to protect hardware and software including: - Controlling physical access to hardware and software. - Backing up data and programmes, i.e. storing a copy of files on a storage device to keep them safe. - Implementing network controls such as: *using passwords *installing firewall, a combination of hardware and software used to control the data going into and out of network, used to prevent unauthorised access to the network by hackers. *encrypting data, i.e. protecting data by putting it in a form only authorised users can understand) *installing a callback system, i.e. a system that automatically disconnects a telephone line after receiving a call and then dials the telephone number of the system that made the call, to reconnect the line. It is used in remote access systems to make sure that connections can only be made from permitted telephone numbers). *Using signature verification or biometric security devices (security devices that measure some aspect of a living being e.g. a fingerprint reader or an eye scanner). - Separating and rotating the computing functions carried out by employees and carrying out periodic audits of the system, i.e. observing and recording events on the network systematically. - Protecting against natural disasters by installing UPS devices (uninterrupted power supplies), i.e. battery backup systems that automatically provide power to a computer when the normal electricity source fails) and surge protectors, i.e. electronic devices that protect equipment from damage due to a sudden surge in a power supply. - Protecting against viruses by using antivirus programmes (computer programmes or set of programmes used to detect, identify and remove viruses from a computer system) and ensuring that all software is free of viruses before it is installed. Particular care must be taken when using public domain software, i.e. free software and shareware, i.e. software that is free to try but must be paid if it is used after the trial period. Say whether the following statements are true or false true false It is rather difficult to protect PC hardware and software

9. HACKERS

Let’s read an interview (I) with Nick (N) and Andrew (A) who were arrested for hacking into a large company. They got into CEO’s personal files and left a very rude message. Now they are computer security experts who use their skills to make cyber space safer. I: Nick, what exactly is hacking’? N: ‘Hacking is getting into computer systems. There are various ways of doing it. You can get in by trying to guess somebody’s password. Or you find a bug in a computer system that will allow people with certain passwords to get in where somebody shouldn’t . I: ‘What has to be done to get into someone else’s system’? N: The first thing you do is to phone someone who uses the system and say that that you are testing a new system and that you need his password so that he can be included in the trial. People are so trusting and quite often they just hand it over. If that doesn’t work then you find out by trying to connect to it over the internet. And normally that’s not desperately difficult. Once you connect to the computer it will ask you to log on and type an ID and password. At the simplest level you try typing ‘guest’ or ‘demo’ or ‘help’ and see what it gives you.’ I: ‘How can companies avoid being hacked into’? N:‘First you install firewalls to restrict access to a network. You can have a callback system to make sure remote clients are who they say they are. Having really secure passwords helps. Never use a common name or a dictionary word or anything short. Check the system regularly using event logs to find failed access attempts. I: ‘And you Andrew, how did you get into this business in the first place’? A:‘I was a computer freak, a young anorak. I got into computers already at school. I: ‘And how did you manage to get into the company’s files?’ A: ‘I guessed some passwords and because of various very silly mistakes the operators of the system made I managed to get right into the system at the highest level’. I: And managed to get into CEO’s personal files.’ A: ‘Yes, what happened there was that I got into part of the system that said: ‘Please, enter your ID’ and then underneath that on the same screen told you what the ID was.’ I:‘Did you feel terribly excited?’ A:Yes, absolutely. People usually hack for money, for criminal or political purposes, they want to expose something. But I hacked because I was challenged and found it tremendously exciting. I never thought about the legal side of it.’ I:‘How did they track you down?’ A:‘We really never tried to cover my tracks, we even boasted around. That got us known to the police and the computer crime unit. I:How interesting having in mind the fact that you ended up helping companies to avoid people like you. Fill in the missing words Hackers are persons who try getting into computer_ systems. There are various ways of doing it. You can get in by trying to guess somebody’s password.

10. INTRODUCTION OF A COMPANY

Good morning ladies and gentlemen, I would like to welcome you all to Metra. My name is Mike Kelly and I am the Vice-President responsible for production at Metra. In this short presentation I’d like to give you an overview of the structure and activities of the company. In particular, I’ve divided my talk into three main parts: first, the current organisation, second the key personnel and their functional responsibilities; and finally our major activities. I’ll be using some charts to highlight the key information and I aim to speak for about 15 minutes. If you have any questions I’ll be happy to answer them at the end of my talk. Right. First, let’s take a look at the current structure of the company. If you look at the chart here you can see that the organisation is headed by Luc Hammonds, our current President. He is supported by four vice-presidents. As you can see, the organisation is divided into four key functional departments and each vice president is assisted by a team of staffers. First we have Paul Duke who is in charge of Research and Development here at our headquarters. Next we have Robert Lee who is responsible for marketing. Next along is the Vice-president for production, namely myself. And my name is Mike Kelly. And finally we have Sally Brown who takes care of corporate finance. The four vice-presidents report directly to Mr Luc Hammonds. Moving on, some five years ago we introduced geographic division in order to bring together in one unit all the activities performed in one region. So, each division is like a separate business unit in certain aspects, but is not truly a separate enterprise because each divisional head must report to HQ. Complete the missing sentences The organisations is headed by Luc Hammonds. Four vice presidents report directly to Luc Hammonds. The President is supported by four vice-presidents. I am the Vice President responsible for production at Metra. Paul Duke is in charge of research and development. Sally Brown takes care of corporate finance.

It is based in Oxford street in London and is London’s second largest department store after Harrods, with 150,000 m2 retail space.
