Bemlo Function Meaning.Inside 1 a computer Peripherals · Devices that are plugged to a computer and serve a specific purpose · Examples are mouses, Keyboard, speakers RAM · Random access memory Random memory holds data that · access and programs are in use for quick access · Data in random access memory is lost when the computer turns off ROM · Read only memory · Permanent storage for essential data or information. · Data in random access memory is permanent and it cannot be erased with ease, retaining contents even when computer is turned off Motherboard · The circuit board that allows communication between computer components · Foundation in which all essential components are installed making the operation of , a computer better Video cards · Handles graphical computations and sends the processed output to the monitor Hardware · component to manage visual data Sound cards · Converts digital data into sounds that can be played through speakers or headphones Hardware device responsible for managing the · input and output of audio CPU · Central process unit · Processes data , runs programs , and performs calculations Essentially · the brain, performing all tasks · Core component responsible for interpreting and executing commands from hardware and software · Prominent for the computer's overall functionality - Processors Processes · information and executes tasks Mathematical and logical calculations Any device that · is capable of performing computation Microprocessors · Same tasks as central processing unit but in a single integrated circuit · Compact central processing unit in a single chip Function Meaning Input · Transfers data into a system · Process of sending data , commands, or signals from other devices to a computer for processing · The way that data enters a computer Output · Transfers data from one system to another · Sends processed information to external devices Differences between input and output · Input device that sends data into a device while output signifies the transfer of data or signals from a device from another Storage · Saves digital data and files , for long term retention , allowing the user to utilize when needed · Stores information permanently or semi-permanently Examples · are USB drives, Cloud CD, and, hard drives , Binary codes · Information using two symbols which are used by computers to perform calculations and store data · Form the basis of all digital computing and electronic communication enabling the representation , of text, numbers, and instructions that a system can process Pixels · Basic units of digital images · Smallest elements of an image displayed on screens or digital photos that collectively form a picture Tiny · to squares that combine with others create images graphics, , and videos · Bits Basic · unit of digital information value · equals to 0 or 1 Bytes Group · of 8 bits kilobytes · Represents 1024 bytes Megabytes Represents · 1024 kilobytes Gigabytes · Represents 1024 megabytes Terabytes · Represents 1024 gigabytes  - Converting bytes Bits x1024 x1024 Bytes "* 24 kilobytes 1024 x Megabytes " 102a Gigabytes Terabytes Hardware · The physical tangible parts , of a device - All the that · electronic and mechanical devices make up a computer system Examples · include the central process unit, motherboard, random access memory, hard drives, and peripherals · Devices that make up a computer system Software · Programs and applications that run on a device Non-physical · elements of a computer system Examples · include operating systems, applications , and utilities Difference between software and hardware Essentially softwares, and hardwares are classified by their role While hardware. is the physical components of a device the software signifies the , elements that run on a computer. Operating systems · Execution of applications and managing system resources such as memory , processes and devices Manages device's hardware and software · a · Core software that provides a system environment allowing the users to interact and run application in the computer · Examples include Windows, MacOs , Linux and Android , - File path · Indicates the unique location of a file folder in a file system · Set of folders that you follow in order to find a file · Folders are separated by a backslash 2 Networks. What are networks ? · Interconnected computing devices that can share information and communicate LAN · Local Area Network Connects · devices through wired or wireless connection for rapid data transfer · Examples include school network , home network , and office network · Wide Area Network · Enables communication and data exchange between devices that are separated by long distances Network · that supports large areas · Peer-to-Peer Networks · Direct communication and data exchange between devices · Can act as a client and server · Enables users to share files, resources and data , directly without a central server · Network that shares resources directly with one another · Examples include AirDrop, · Servers · Provides resources , services or data information such as web pages files, , or apps · Can be physical machine or software application that operates in a specific computer Responsible · for web hosting file storage, , or apps. Internet protocol · Provides the rules for addressing data packages across networks · Ensures that the data is sent to the right location · Defines how data is packaged , addressed transmitted, and received , over a network · Enables worldwide connectivity - Internet Connects · a very large amount of networks worldwide · Transfers data between devices across the globe through interconnected servers routers and devices · Allows users to share , access, and exchange in formations · Global network of networks - Intranet · Private network for organization · Certain people are enabled to share information , communicate within a controlled environment Private · network that is only accessible by some and not to generall public - Difference between Internet and Intranet? While identifying the difference between both instances is their availability to the general public Intranet. would only be available to certain users according to the given instance Contrarily. anyone , can access Internet; as in the general public. - CRHAP Currency · How recent - · Relevancy - Is it important for topic ? - Authority - Who wrote it?
