    Computer

    Software

    • There are three main types of software: System Software, Application Software, and Programming Languages.
    • System Software includes operating systems and device drivers, which control and manage computer hardware components.
    • Application Software includes productivity software and games, designed to perform specific tasks.
    • Programming Languages, such as Java and Python, are used to write software code.
    • The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) consists of six stages: Planning and Analysis, Design, Implementation (Coding), Testing, Deployment, and Maintenance.
    • Software can be licensed as Proprietary (e.g., Windows) or Open-Source (e.g., Linux), affecting user rights and permissions.

    Networking

    • Network Topologies can be categorized into Physical (e.g., Bus, Star, Ring) and Logical (e.g., LAN, WAN, Wi-Fi) configurations.
    • TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is a fundamental protocol suite for internet communication.
    • HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and FTP (File Transfer Protocol) are application-layer protocols used for data transfer.
    • Network Devices include Routers, Switches, and Gateways, which manage and direct network traffic.

    Artificial Intelligence

    • There are three types of AI: Narrow or Weak AI (e.g., Siri, Alexa), General or Strong AI (e.g., humanoid robots), and Superintelligence.
    • Machine Learning is a subset of AI, consisting of Supervised Learning, Unsupervised Learning, and Reinforcement Learning.
    • AI Applications include Natural Language Processing (NLP), Computer Vision, and Robotics, which are used in various industries and services.
