Enables the computer to function properly
Control or maintains the operations of computer and its devices
Serves as the interface between the user, the application software and the
computers hardware.

b) Differences between Random Access Memory (RAM) and Read Only Memory
(ROM).

RAM ROM
Data and Stores during and after Stored by manufacturer
Program processing
Content Store information temporarily Stores instructions (information)
permanently

Volatility Volatile Non-volatile

30. a) Define Client and Server in a client/server network.

A client is a computer which requests services or files from server computer
A server is a computer that shares information and resources with other
computers on a network.

b) Explain what a peer-to-peer network is.

Peer to peer or P2P network is a network with all the nodes acting as both
server and clients. A PC can access files located on other PC and can also
provide files to other PCs. All computers in the peer to peer network has equal
responsibilities and capabilities to use the resources available on the network.

QUESTION 31
a) Based on Figure 1, draw the information processing cycle in block diagram
accordingly.

b) Explain two functions of component X.
i. Interprets and carries out basic instructions that
operate a computer
ii. Control unit directs and coordinates operations in computer
iii. Arithmetic logic unit (ALU) performs arithmetic, comparison, and
logical operations

c) Differentiate between component Y and component Z

Y(primary storage)
Accessible directly by the processing unit
(CPU) CPU can access the data or
instructions directly
Access time faster, measured in
nanoseconds (billionths of a second)
More expensive and smaller capacity
Stores data from input device or ftom
secondary storage device e.g. floppy disk
for immediate acess
Stores data and instructions temporarily,
disappears when power to computer is
switched off
Volatile memory content (data and
instructions lost on failure of power supply
or when the computer is switched off
Can be read and written directly by the CPU
data and instructions can be read and
written by the CPU
Holds instructions to be executed and data
to be used with those instructions
Holds instrunctions and data while they are
being processed by the CPU
Stores instructions to execute a programme
to allow the CPU to follow instantly the set
of instructions
Z(secondary storage)
Not accessible directly by the CPU need to
be copied to memory (primary storage)
before the CPU can access the data or
instructions
Access time slower, measured in
miliseconds (thousandths of a second)
Less expensive and bigger capacity
Stores data from input device or from other
secondary storage devices permanently but
must be copied to memory first
Nonvolatile content retained and not lost
even when power is removed
Can be read and written but not directly by
the CPU data and instructions have to be
copied to memory before they can be read
and written by the CPU
Holds instrunctions and data which have to
be copied to memory (primary storage)
before instructions can be executed and
data can be used by the CPU

d) Mr. Hamdan had installed a few application software on Computer A.

Differentiate between word processing software and spreadsheet software.

fax cover sheets, mailing labels, and
newsletters

QUESTION 32
(a) Explain Mr. Ms activity in Figure 11(a).

Mr. Ms using his computer network skill illegally accessing the server at
College ABC. Mr. Ms access the server data without permission. That
mean Mr. M hacks the computer server at College ABC. Mr. M also
changes the data in the examination database in the server. By using his
skill he is paid by other students.

(b) Explain how the activity in Figure 11(a) will affect the college
Hacker changes the examination marks. The examination database is
not valid anymore. So false data will be distributed and the organization
will be unstable. The organizer will try to find where the problem is and
this will increase the cost of maintenance.

(c) Give two other possible threats to the computer security of the college.
i. Natural disaster such as flood, storm and etc.
ii. Malicious code such as virus and worm.
iii. Theft
(d) State one possible measure that can be carried out by the network
administrators in Figure 11(b).

Install firewall

QUESTION 33
(a) Give the definition of the environment in statement 2 situation.
Information can be stored and retrieved through the digital
medium instead of paper .Example online communication via
email, online chat ,MayBank2U and any other relevant example.

 (b) State two other positive and two other negative impacts of ICT usage.

Positive/Positif
Faster Communication Speed
In the past, it took a long time for any news or messages to be
send. Now with the Internet, news or messages are sent via e-mail
to friends, business partners or to anyone efficiently. With the
capability of bandwidth, broadband and connection speed on the
Internet, any information can travel fast and at an instant. It saves
time and is inexpensive.
Lower Communication Cost
Using the Internet is cost-effective than the other modes of
communication such as telephone, mailing or courier service. It
allows people to have access to large amounts of data at a very
low cost. With the Internet we do not have to pay for any basic
services provided by the Internet. Furthermore, the cost of
connection to the Internet is relatively cheap.
Reliable Mode Of Communication
Computers are reliable. With the internet, information could be
accessed and retrieved from anywhere and at anytime. This
makes it a reliable mode of communication. However, the input to
the computer is contributed by humans. If the data passed to the
computer is faulty, the result will be faulty as well. This is related
to the term GIGO.
GIGO is a short form for Garbage In Garbage Out. It refers to the
quality of output produced according to the input. Normally bad
input produces bad output.

Effective Sharing Of Information

With the advancement of ICT, information can be shared by
people all around the world. People can share and exchange
opinions, news and information through discussion groups, mailing
list and forums on the Internet. This enable knowledge sharing
which will contribute to the development of knowledge based
society.

Negative
Bad posture
Eyestrain

Physical and mental stress
