WHAT IS COMPUTER ? A computer is an electronic machine or device executing the instruction in a program. A computer can accept data, manipulate or process the data, produce result, and store the results. COMPUTER INPUTPROCESSOUTPUTSTORE SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

What is computer ? A computer is an automatic electronic apparatus used for making calculations or controlling operations that are expressible in numerical or logical terminology. In other words a computer is defined as a electronic device used to carry out mathematical and non- mathematical operations with the help of the programs. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Contd……………….  A program is a sequence of instruction which operates on data to perform certain task. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Why computer ?  Today we are living in the age of MACHINE AND TIME. When we work manually, it takes a lot of time and in order to save this time we need computers.  To save time & better performance.  To avoid errors/mistakes.  To get the output as hardcopy(print out) and soft copy in desired format. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

cont  To store huge amount of data easily & conveniently.  To establish a fast communication of data/ information.  To minimize the redundancy of data. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Computer component Output devices Input devices Storage unit System unit SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

DATA &INFORMATION Data Computer + program Information Data Raw facts, figures and symbols. Information organized,meaningful,and more useful SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Input devices  To get data and instructions into the computer. Keyboard Mouse Micro phone(audio data) PC camera(video data) Scanner(image input) SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Output devices  Monitor  Printer  Speaker SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

monitor Monitor : It is a piece of electronic equipment which display images generated by computer devices. Classification of monitor based on colour I.Monochrome II.Gray scale III.Colour. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Contd…………………. Based on signals: I. Digital monitor ex : score board in cricket match II.Analog monitor ex: monitor based on CRT technology. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

printer Impact printer : Impact printer use the familiar typewriter approach which cause hammer or pins to strike against a ribbon and paper to print the text, type of impact printer are I. character printers II.Line printer SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Contd……… Non impact printer: These printer use non- impact technology such as ink-jet or laser technology. These printer provides better quality of output at higher speed, type of non-impact printer are I.Character printer II.Page printer SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

According to the data processing mode/logic/manufacturing principle SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

.  Analog computer:- T hese computer are used for measuring purpose rather than counting. Analog computers deal with continuous data. They are used for measurement of a physical quantity. The output readings of these computer are generally on dials or graphs. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Analog computer process physical data to mathematical equations. They are mostly used for differential equations. The accuracy of analog computer is very high. Example:- In petrol pump, Automobile speedometers. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

 Digital computers:- Digital computers operates on discrete data values. These values are countable instead of measurable Digital computer performs each and every operations in the form of binary words(string of zeros and ones). These are high speed programmable electronic devices that perform arithmetical, logical operations and store the results. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Cont……………. Digital computer are most widely used computer in the world. Example: personal computers(pc) score board in the cricket match. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

TYPES OF DIGITAL COMPUTER: General purpose digital computers: ex: Accounting banking, payroll. Special purpose digital computers: ex: American atomic submarines. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

 HYBRID COMPUTERS: Digital computer are made by combining the best features of digital computers as well as analog computer. The digital computer gives better accuracy and analog computer gives better speed, therefore the hybrid computer includes both features, speed and accuracy. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Contd…………. These computers are extensively used for those applications in which the input is received in analog form from various resources and converted in to digital form for further processing. Example: In the ICU, of a hospital SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

types of computer According to size/function/cost MicroMiniMainframeSuper SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

ACCORDING TO SIZE\FUNCTION\COST SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

MICRO COMPUTER A micro computer is the cheapest and the smallest of all the computers. A micro computer has a microprocessor chip as its CPU, these microprocessor are programmed at the time of manufacturing and are connected to the peripheral devices. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

CONTD…………….. A microprocessor is a digital device which has millions of logical circuit, these circuit are made up of transistors these transistors are mounted on very thin semiconductor silicon chips SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

MINI COMPUTER Mini computer are general purpose computers whose storage capacity is more than micro computer. In size these are larger than microcomputer but smaller than mainframe computer. Mini computer are generally used where large number of people have to work on different terminals having same job, such as statistical analysis, telephone or electricity billing. Some example of mini computers are HONEYWELL,PDPII/70. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

MAINFRAME COMPUTER Mainframe computer are also called as mini computer. These are very large computers in size. The memory size of these computer is 16GB or even more. The cost of mainframe computers varies from 10lahks to crores. Some organizations where the mainframe computer are installed are IITs, BHEL etc. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM

Super computer Super computer also known as maxi computer. These computer are the most sophisticated machines used for special purpose applications such as weather forecasting, missile, atomic experiments. The speed of super computer is measured in billions instructions per seconds(BIPS). Super computer contains a number of CPUs which operates in parallel to make it faster. SEC:A PGDM SEM I: MAISM
