Characteristics of Computer

As Advantage:

  1. Automatic: - Computers are automatic machine because once started on a job, they carry out the job until is finished (without any human intervention).
  2. Speed: - A computer is a very fast device it can perform in few seconds, the amount of work that a human being can do in an entire year.
  3. Accuracy: - computers are very accurate. Accuracy of a computer is consistently high and the degree of its accuracy depends upon its design.
  4. Diligence: - A computer is free from monotony, tiredness and lake of concentration, unlike human Beings A computer will perform the last one with exactly the same accuracy and speed as the first one.
  5. Versatility: - Versatility is one of the most wonderful things about a computer. We can use computer to perform completely different types of work at the same time.
  6. Storage: - Computer can store mass storage of data with appropriate format.

As Disadvantage

  1. No. I.Q:- A computer is a machine that has no intelligence to perform any task. Each instruction has to be given to the computer. A computer cannot take any decision on its own.
  2. Dependency: - It functions as per the user’s instruction, thus it is fully dependent on humans.
  3. Environment: - The operating Environment of the computer should be dust free and suitable.
  4. No Feeling: - Computers have no feelings or emotions. It cannot make judgment based on feeling, taste, experience, and knowledge unlike humans.
  5. Non Heuristic: - Computer has only artificial intelligence. It cannot learn from the last mistake.

BASIC STRUCTURE OF A COMPUTER SYSTEM

Computer Function A computer performs action and accomplishes its task in three basic stages namely:- INPUT – Input is the data that is fed into the computer by the user. PROCESS – Processing refers to the series of action by which the computer converts raw data into information. OUTPUT – Output is the result which is termed as information. Input Unit Data and instructions enter a computer through an input unit in a form that depends upon the input device used. Ex- Keyboard, Mouse, Joystick, Scanner etc. CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (C.P.U) CPU is also known as the brain of the “Brain of Computer”. As it appears as a hardware component, but it is also a functional component of a computer system. Functional Elements of a CPU        1.        Arithmetic Logic Unit(ALU)        2.        Control Unit(C.U)        3.    ...

DEVICES USED IN NETWORK

  1. MODEM: It stands for Modulator- Demodulator. A   modem is a peripheral device which modulates ( convert   digital signals to analog signals) and demodulates( convert   analog signals into digital signals) at the local workstation.   The sending and receiving ends of the communication must   have a modem. Now a days mobile phones have inbuilt   modem devices that help to browse internet.      2. Switch: A network switch is a small hardware device that is used to amplify data signals & create smaller network segment or several subnets of bigger network. It is used to prevent overloading of data in the traffic of a network. It is also responsible for forwarding and transforming data packets between the sub networks.    3. HUB:   A hub is a hardware device which provides common connection point to connect several devices together in a network. It contains multiple ports on which wo...

Application OF Computer

Communication : - In the past, people used to communication through letters, telephones etc. The advent of computers has made it possible to share or exchange information in real time (instant). Information can be textual, graphics or visual from any corner of the world in different ways. Like – Email, Online chatting, Video conferencing, FTP (File Transfer Protocol), Telnet, Social Networking. News & Broadcasting : The delivery and reception of news has changed dramatically with the advent of computers. Earlier, Journalists used snail mail, reel-to-reel recorders, dark-room processing for photos and typewriters for composing contents. But now computers have facilitated in Instant Broadcast, Online Newspapers, Online News Channels, etc. Social Networking: Before the advent of computer, people used to interact with friends and relatives in closed groups and meet them during family functions, religious ceremonies and gatherings at local temples, gurudwaras, mosques or church...
