TASK 1
History of Computer
By now you would have understood that computers assist us in converting data into information. Even
though at present, there are automated computer systems, the computer too has undergone a similar
evolution process as human beings and has reached the advanced stage today.
The computer was born with the attempt to make an adding machine. In order to perform addition
of numbers, a device called Abacus was invented around 5000 ago.
All the versions of early computers were mechanical in nature. From the time when the
computers became automated they were categorized into various ‘Generations’ as below:

Field of education
Simply, in the classroom there are many ways the computer and the internet are used for education in
the classroom and out to leaning for students teaching aid for the teacher. Computers is used mostly as
a teaching aid in schools.
For presentations
 Videos on experiments
 Creation of images and video
 Desktop publishing of magazines, letters and documents
 Educational games (Edutainment)
 Learning using the CD-ROM media
 Gathering educational information on the internet
 Using pictures, animations and audio-visuals to explain subjects that are difficult to explain.
 To make the lessons interesting using presentations.
 To organize lessons using the computer.
 To obtain the information which are relevant to the subjects.
Features of Distance Learning:

 No daily time tables, provide the facility to learn at your convenience.
 Digital library facility on joining a course.
 Online assignments and quizzes.
 Contact with a teacher online.
 Easy to obtain teacher consultation
However negative impact also dominate this field of education
 Students becoming lazy

 Health issues by seating in front of electronic equipment’s
 Low of education level
 Thinking, creativity has effected, going down
 Stress, mind disturb through using electronic equipment’s,
 Doubts clearing them has difficulties & ect,
Example:
Many US states spend large sums of money on technology. However, as of 2013, none were looking at
technology return on investment (ROI) to connect expenditures on technology with improved student
outcomes. Boser, U. (2013). "Are Schools Getting a Big Enough Bang for Their Education Technology
Buck?" (PDF). www. americanprogress. org. pp. 1–12. Retrieved 2014-05-15.
Medical field
Many of the difficult processes in the medical field have become efficient with through the use of modern
equipment.
 There are surgical devices with cameras which can record the surgical procedures while surgery
is carried out.
 Devices and appliances which are used in the practical training of doctors and nurses.
 Devices used to analyse store and print medical records.

FIGURE 1 – CAT, ECG,CT MACHINE
Agriculture field
Agriculture the most important filed to world stability because it is the second power/energy supplier to
the creatures in ancient period farmers are do their work by them self by body energy. The have work
lot and they become sick too soon. By the invention of devices it’s could do from it by so easy.
ICT has created a new revolution in the field of agriculture. Today computer technology is extensively
used in agriculture, animal husbandry and fisheries industries.
A range of automatic machines are available today to ease the work of the farmer who worked hard in
the field. These machines not only reduce the work of a farmer but also enables him to produce high
quality yields. Below is a some of the machines used in developed as well as developing countries.
Transport Field
We can quote some of the systems which are used to enhance the road traffic by minimizing traffic jams.
This system which uses the CCTV (Closed Circuit TV) is helpful in monitoring the road traffic, accidents
and illegal activities and take appropriate actions accordingly.
Traffic Light Control System, These automated lights are positioned at road junctions. These lights are
helpful in minimizing accidents by controlling the vehicle traffic and pedestrians.

Entertainment field
Various devices and equipment have been invented to provide some peace of mind to human beings who
are spending a busy life today. These devices enable us to:
 listen to music to overcome a monotonous life,

 watch missed TV programmes or movies of our choise,
 exchange information between friends and relatives who live abroad or whom
 we have lost touch through social media,
 watch high definition video using technology,
 surf the internet. This helps children to do learning activities and play games
 during the free time,
 read e-books on internet,
 take photographs of favourite places and store them in the computer.
Negative Impacts of Computer

Not only does ICT help us as enabler to perform our day today activities, it has become a close
companion also. However, if you use this companion in an undue manner it may bring forth
undesirable effects to you as well to the whole world.
 Addiction – A student or any other person who immerses himself/herself in the

 use of computer or who plays games on internet without limit, may lose track of education
and/or end up with ailments such as sore eyes, back pain, headache etc.
 Building unsuitable friendships through social media.
 The computers could become infected by virus due to improper use of internet.
 Negative effects on psychology of a person by visiting improper websites.
 Publishing of edited photographs and videos of individuals affecting their personal lives.
 There is an opinion that ICT has negative impacts on human society due to issues such as the
above. But we have understood that the systems made by ICT make most of man's routine
work effortless. Therefore, it is our responsibility to use ICT in a responsible manner.
 Waste of money, Expensive Equipment’s

Task 3 : Classification (various types) of computers
 As described in the first chapter, a computer can be used to perform various tasks such as
prepare documents, control machineries or to check illnesses. Hence, computers can be
classified as follows;
Classification according to size

1. Super Computers
These computers have higher computing power. They are large in size, expensive and
rare.(Figure 2.2) These are used for scientific and engineering functions and to solve
complex mathematical problems. For example, these computers are used in institutes like
NAZA, large scale businesses and for military purposes.
2. Mainframe Computers
These ahave relatively less computing power and less expensive than the super computers. In
mainframe computers, a number of users get connected to one computer using a number of
terminals sharing, saving and retrieving data. (Figure 2.3 and 2.4) These are used in large scale
businesses and in e-business. This type of computers are used even today in some large
commercial institutions.
3. Mini Computers
These are slower, less powerful and less expensive than Mainframe computers and are also
called common purpose computers. These are easy to use. A few users get connected to the
central computer here through a few terminals to share data and information. Some banking
systems use mini computers. (Figure 2.5 and 2.6)
4. Personal Computers/ Micro Computers

This is a small computer meant for personal use. This consists of a small memory capacity, is
smaller in size, is less speedy and is less expensive. Further, this consumes little electricity
(Figure 2.7). Laptop computers and personal computers are some examples for this category
Classification according to technology

1. Analog Computers
These computers use analog signals such as environmental parameters (speed, pressure, and
temperature). Speedometers, road lamps with sensors, meteorological machines can be given as
examples.
2. Digital Computers
The computers used in day-to-day life are called digital computers. These computers use digital
signals, using electricity.
3. Hybrid Computers
This is a combination of analog and digital computers. The ECG machine used in hospitals to
check the function of the heart is an example for hybrid computers. This machine identifies the
function of the heart beat which is an analog signal. Then it is converted to a digital signal and
these converted signals are printed by this machine.

A pointer represents a small symbol on the screen. It usually appears on the screen in Graphical User
Interface (GUI) environment. A pointing device is an input device. It is used to control the movement
of the pointer or cursor on the screen. It can also be used for:
 Sending command signals to the computer.

 Selecting items on the screen.
 Selecting commands from commands menu.
 Drawing graphs etc.
Most Important Pointing Devices
The most important pointing devices are as follows:
1. Mouse
2. Trackball
3. Pointing Stick
4. Joystick
5. Touch Pad
6. Touch Screen
7. Light Pen
8. Digitizer/Graphic Tablet
1- Mouse
Mouse is the most commonly used pointing input devise. It is used to control the cursor or pointer
on the screen and to give commands to the computer. It is very easy to use. The mouse is attached with

the computer by a cable or wireless connection.
The top of mouse contains one wheel and 2 or 3 buttons. These buttons can be clicked or double
clicked to perform different tasks.
Example: For example, an object (icon) on the screen is selected by clicking the left button of mouse.
Similarly, a program or folder is opened by double clicking the left button of mouse.
Two Types of Mouse

The most popular types of mouse are as follows:
(i) Mechanical Mouse: It has a small ball at the bottom. The ball rotates as the mouse is rolled over a
flat surface. Usually, a rectangular rubber pad (known as mouse pad) is used as flat surface. As the
mouse is rolled over the flat surface, the pointer moves in the same direction on the screen.
(ii) Optical Mouse: It has no ball at the bottom. It uses the laser technology to detect the mouse
movement. Nowadays, it is commonly used in personal computers (PCs).
2-Trackball
A trackball is a pointing input device. It performs functions like a mouse but it is a stationary device.
It has move-able ball on its top. The ball is rotated or rolled with fingers (or palm of the hand) to move
the pointer on the screen. Like mouse, a trackball also has buttons used to send the commands to
computer.
The trackball is usually available laptop compute. It is fixed on its keyboard. It is also available as
separate input device.
3- Touch Pad
Touch Pad is a pressure-sensitive pointing device. Touch pad is also known as track pad. It is also
stationary device like trackball but it has no moving arts. It is a small, flat surface (or sensitive pad)
over which a user slides fingertip to move the pointer on the screen.
Touch Pad also has one or two buttons. These buttons are located near the pad. These buttons work
like mouse buttons. Touch Pad is normally used with laptops. Nowadays, it is also available as
separate inpute device. It is fixed on separate keyboard.
4- Pointing Stick
A pointing stick is a pressure-sensitive pointing device. It looks like a pencil eraser. It exists

between keys of keyboard. It is used to control the movement of a pointer on the screen. The pointer in
th screen moves in the direction in which the pointing stick is pushed. Pointing stick input device is
normally used with laptop computers.
5- Joystick
Joystick is a pointing device. It consists of a vertical handle or hand-held stick. The stick is mounted
on a base. The hand-held stick is used to control the movement of pointer on the screen. Joystick also
contains one or two buttons. The button of the joystick is pressed to activate certain event or action.
Joystick is basically used to play video games. It is also used in some computer-aided design (CAD)
system.
6- Touch Screen
A touch screen is a special video display screen. Input is given to the computer directly by touching
the screen with user fingertip. Most touch screen computers use sensors in the computer's screen to
detect the touch of a finger. Usually touch screen used to make selection from a menu of choices
displayed on the screen. Touch screen is often used in ATM. Touch screen systems are also used in
restaurants, supermarkets, departmental stores etc.
In some computer systems, pen-based or light pen input devices are used. The user touches the screen
with a pen. However, the term touch screen implies a system that accepts input data by touching the
screen with the user's fingertip.
7- Light Pen
The light pen is a hand-held pointing input device. It looks like a pen. It is a light-sensitive input
device. It is connected with the computer by a wire. The tip of pen contains a light-sensitive element.
This device also contains a button.
Input is given to the computer directly by touching the screen with pen. When the pen is touched with
the screen, it detects or senses a position on display screen. The user points the object to be selected on
the display screen and then presses a button on the light pen.
Light Pen device is usually used by engineers and graphic designers. This input device requires special
monitor. Light pen is used in Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) and other types of hand-held
computers.
8- Digitizer or Graphics Tablet

Digitizer is used for drawing new images or tracing old images. Usually, it is used for making maps
and engineering drawings. A digitizer is also known as graphics tablet. It consists of a flat, rectangular
board (or pad) and an input device stylus or puck. Each location on the rectangular board points to
corresponding position on the computer screen. The stylus or puck is connected to the board / pad by a
wire.
Stylus looks like a pen. It is used for drawing images on a specially designed graphics screen or
digitizer. Puck looks like a mouse. Puck is also called cursor. Usually, it is generally used for tracing
old images.
Impact printers
An impact printer makes contact with the paper. It usually forms the print image by pressing an inked
ribbon against the paper using a hammer or pins. Following are some examples of impact printers.
Dot-Matrix Printers
The dot-matrix printer uses print heads containing from 9 to 24 pins. These pins produce patterns of dots
on the paper to form the individual characters. The 24 pin dot-matrix printer produces more dots that a
9 pin dot-matrix printer, which results in much better quality and clearer characters. The general rule is:
the more pins, the clearer the letters on the paper. The pins strike the ribbon individually as
the print mechanism moves across the entire print line in both directions, i-e, from left to right, then right
to left, and so on. The user can produce a color output with a dot-matrix printer (the user will change the
black ribbon with a ribbon that has color stripes). Dot-matrix printers are inexpensive and
typically print at speeds of 100-600 characters per second.
Daisy-wheel printers
In order to get the quality of type found on typewriters, a daisy-wheel impact printer can be used. It is
called daisy-wheel printer because the print mechanism looks like a daisy; at the end of each “Petal” is
a fully formed character which produces solid-line print. A hammer strikes a “petal” containing a
character against the ribbon, and the character prints on the paper. Its speed is slow typically 25-55
characters per second.
Line printers
In business where enormous amount of material are printed, the character-at-a-time printers are too slow;
therefore, these users need line-at-a-time printers. Line printers, or line-at-a-time printers, use special
mechanism that can print a whole line at once; they can typically print the range of 1,200 to 6,000 lines
per minute. Drum, chain, and band printers are line-at-a-time printers.
Drum printer
A drum printer consists of a solid, cylindrical drum that has raised characters in bands on its surface.
The number of print positions across the drum equals the number available on the page. This number
typically ranges from 80-132 print positions. The drum rotates at a rapid speed. For each
possible print position there is a print hammer located behind the paper. These hammers strike the paper,
along the ink ribbon, against the proper character on the drum as it passes. One revolution of the drum
is required to print each line. This means that all characters on the line are not printed at exactly the same
time, but the time required to print the entire line is fast enough to call them line printers. Typical speeds
of drum printers are in the range of 300 to 2000 lines per minute.
Chain printers
A chain printer uses a chain of print characters wrapped around two pulleys. Like the drum printer, there
is one hammer for each print position. Circuitry inside the printer detects when the correct character
appears at the desired print location on the page. The hammer then strikes the page, pressing the paper
against a ribbon and the character located at the desired print position. An impression of the character is
left on the page. The chain keeps rotating until all the required print positions on the line have filled.
Then the page moves up to print the next line. Speeds of chain printers range from 400 to 2500 characters
per minute.
Band printers
A band printer operates similar to chain printer except it uses a band instead of a chain and has fewer
hammers. Band printer has a steel band divided into five sections of 48 characters each. The hammers
on a band printer are mounted on a cartridge that moves across the paper to the appropriate positions.
Characters are rotated into place and struck by the hammers. Font styles can easily be changed by
replacing a band or chain.
Non-impact printers
Non-impact printers do not use a striking device to produce characters on the paper; and because these
printers do not hammer against the paper they are much quieter. Following are some non-impacted
printers.
Ink-jet printers
Ink-jet printers work in the same fashion as dot-matrix printers in the form images or characters with
little dots. However, the dots are formed by tiny droplets of ink. Ink-jet printers form characters on paper
by spraying ink from tiny nozzles through an electrical field that arranges the charged ink particles into
characters at the rate of approximately 250 characters per second. The ink is absorbed into the paper and
dries instantly. Various colors of ink can also be used.
One or more nozzles in the print head emit a steady stream of ink drops. Droplets of ink are electrically
charged after leaving the nozzle. The droplets are then guided to the paper by electrically charged
deflecting plates [one plate has positive charge (upper plate) and the other has negative charge (lover
plate)]. A nozzle for black ink may be all that’s needed to print text, but full-color printing is also
possible with the addition of needed to print text, but full-color printing is also possible with the addition
three extra nozzles for the cyan, magenta, and yellow primary colors. If a droplet isn’t needed for the
character or image being formed, it is recycled back to its input nozzle.
Several manufacturers produce color ink-jet printer. Some of these printers come with all their color inks
in a cartridge; if you want to replace on color, you must replace all the colors. Other color ink-jet printers
allow you to replace ink individually. These printers are a better choice if user uses one color more than
other colors. These printers produce less noise and print in better quality with greater speed.
Laser printers
A laser printer works like a photocopy machine. Laser printers produce images on paper by directing a
laser beam at a mirror which bounces the beam onto a drum. The drum has a special coating on it to

which toner (an ink powder) sticks. Using patterns of small dots, a laser beam conveys information from
the computer to a positively charged drum to become neutralized. From all those areas of drum which
become neutralized, the toner detaches. As the paper rolls by the drum, the toner is transferred to the
paper printing the letters or other graphics on the paper. A hot roller bonds the toner to the paper.
Laser printers use buffers that store an entire page at a time. When a whole page is loaded, it will be
printed. The speed of laser printers is high and they print quietly without producing much noise. Many
home-use laser printers can print eight pages per minute, but faster and printapproximately 21,000 lines
per minute, or 437 pages per minute if each page contains 48 lines. When high speed laser printers were
introduced they were expensive. Developments in the last few years have provided relatively low-cost
laser printers for use in small businesses.
Features of a Von Neumann architecture
The illustration above shows the essential features of the Von Neumann or stored-program
architecture.
Memory
The computer will have memory that can hold both data and also the program processing that data. In
modern computers this memory is RAM.
Control Unit
The control unit will manage the process of moving data and program into and out of memory and also
deal with carrying out (executing) program instructions - one at a time. This includes the idea of a
'register' to hold intermediate values. In the illustration above, the 'accumulator' is one such register.
The 'one-at-a-time' phrase means that the von neumann architecture is a sequential processing
machine.
Input - Output
This architecture allows for the idea that a person needs to interact with the machine. Whatever values
that are passed to and forth are stored once again in some internal registers.
Arithmetic Logic Unit
This part of the architecture is solely involved with carrying out calculations upon the data. All the
usual Add, Multiply, Divide and Subtract calculations will be available but also data comparisons such
as 'Greater Than', 'Less Than', 'Equal To' will be available.
Bus
Notice the arrows between components? This implies that information should flow between various
parts of the computer. In a modern computer built to the Von Neumann architecture, information
passes back and forth along a 'bus'. There are buses to identify locations in memory - an 'address bus'
And there are buses to allow the flow of data and program instructions - a 'data bus'.
Conclusion
The Von Neumann architecture has been incredibly successful, with most modern computers
following the idea. You will find the CPU chip of a personal computer holding a control unit and the
arithmetic logic unit (along with some local memory) and the main memory is in the form of RAM
sticks located on the motherboard.
But there are some basic problems with it. And because of these problems, other architectures have
been developed. These alternatives will be discussed later.

Software
Software Types
The term 'software' refers to the set of electronic program instructions or data a computer processor
reads in order to perform a task or operation. In contrast, the term 'hardware' refers to the physical
components that you can see and touch, such as the computer hard drive, mouse, and keyboard.
Software can be categorized according to what it is designed to accomplish. There are two main types
of software: systems software and application software.
Software
Application Softwares System Software
Operating System Utility software Language Translators
Ex: Ex:
MS Word, Excel Assembler
Web Engines, Compiler
Computer Games interpreter
Systems Software
Systems software includes the programs that are dedicated to managing the computer itself, such as
the operating system, file management utilities, and disk operating system (or DOS). The operating
system manages the computer hardware resources in addition to applications and data. Without systems
software installed in our computers we would have to type the instructions for everything we wanted the
computer to do!

Applications Software
Application software, or simply applications, are often called productivity programs or end-user
programs because they enable the user to complete tasks such as creating documents, spreadsheets,
databases, and publications, doing online research, sending email, designing graphics, running
businesses, and even playing games! Application software is specific to the task it is designed for and
can be as simple as a calculator application or as
complex as a word processing application. When you
begin creating a document, the word processing
software has already set the margins, font style and size,
and the line spacing for you. But you can change these
settings, and you have many more formatting options
available. For example, the word processor application
makes it easy to add color, headings, and pictures or
delete, copy, move, and change the document's
appearance to suit your needs.
Microsoft Word is a popular word-processing application that is included in the software suite of
applications called Microsoft Office. A software suite is a group of software applications with related
functionality. For example, office software suites might include word processing, spreadsheet, database,
presentation, and email applications. Graphics suites such as Adobe Creative Suite include applications
for creating and editing images, while Sony Audio Master Suite is used for audio production.
A Web browser, or simply browser, is an application specifically designed to locate, retrieve, and
display content found on the Internet. By clicking a hyperlink or by typing the URL of a website, the
user is able to view Web sites consisting of one or more Web pages. Browsers such as Internet Explorer,
Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari are just a few of the many available to choose from.
