6. Major Components of a Computer System Input Output 1. Arithmetic/Logic 2. Control Unit 3. Registers Secondary Storage Primary Storage CPU Information Control

7. Central Processing Unit (CPU) Arithmetic/Logic Unit – e.g., if diagnosis=diabetes then count patient Control Unit – home of the machine code Registers – place-holders within the CPU as it processes data.

8. Primary Storage Core memory: – Read-only memory – Random-access memory – Cache memory Started off being very expensive Extremely cheap today relatively to a few years ago (32 MB, $1,280 in 1993; 32 MB, <$1 in 2012)

9. Secondary Storage Magnetic disks (e.g., Hard drives) Magnetic tapes (e.g., Tape drives) Optical disks – CD (700 MB) – DVD (4,300 or 4.3 GB) – Blu-Ray (25/50 GB) Smart cards Solid state drives (e.g., SSD / USB drives)

26. 1970s - Setting the Stage for Bigger Things Hardware innovations opened up new opportunities: – On-line computer systems – Still used batch for big jobs (payroll) Minicomputers Packaged systems

27. 1970s - continued Packages developed: – accounts receivable – admissions – bed census – inventory control – medical records Turn-key packages: Vendor supplies hardware, software, installation support and training. Shared systems – use a hub – use terminals – forerunner of networks

28. 1980s Microcomputers make rapid advances Institutions faced with more managers wanting systems tailored to their needs. Led to Balkanization of HMIS. Why? – Technology is cheap – Hospital departments start buying their own stuff – Although stuff was cheap, the new product cycle rapidly accelerated.

29. 1990s-Realizing integrated IS Radical market change in health markets has completed radical in IT change. – mergers – integrated delivery systems – Health reforms promise, threat and debris – Health data standards – Internet/intranet capability – Privacy & security issues – Consumers enter the health care market informed with MEDLINE data and clinical data from the web.
