What is a computer?


1.1 Presentation


We as a whole have seen computer in our homes, schools, or universities. As a matter of fact, in the present situation we track down computer in many parts of day to day existence, and for some it is difficult to try and envision a world without them. A computer is essentially a machine that takes guidelines and performs calculations in view of those directions.


These days PCs come in various sizes. Their size might shift from tiny to exceptionally huge. Before, PCs were very enormous in size and required a whole space for establishment. These PCs consumed gigantic measures of force and were too costly to ever be utilized for business applications. Consequently, they were utilized exclusively for restricted undertakings, like processing directions for galactic or military applications.

Nonetheless, with mechanical progressions, the size of PCs decreased and their energy necessities brought down tremendously. This opened the way for reception of PCs for business purposes. Nowadays, PCs have become so predominant in the market that all intuitive gadgets like phones, worldwide situating framework (GPS) units, compact coordinators, robotized teller machines (ATMs), and service stations work with PCs.


1.2 WHAT IS COMPUTER-PC DEFINITION?


A computer is an electronic machine that takes directions and performs calculations in light of those guidelines. Prior to delving into subtleties, let us become familiar with a few key terms that are as often as possible utilized in PCs.


Information

Information is an assortment of crude realities or figures.

Data

Data involves handled information to give replies to who', 'what", "where", and when sort of inquiries.


Information

Information is the utilization of information and data to answer 'how' part of the inquiry


Guidelines

Orders given to the PC that determines what it needs to do are directions.


Programs

A bunch of guidelines in coding is known as a program.


Software

A set of programs is called software


Equipment

A PC and all its actual parts are known as equipment.

Cache Memory

Cache Memory Cache memory is an intermediate form of storage between registers and the primary memory. It is used to store instructions and data that are repeatedly required to execute programs thereby improving the overall system speed and increase the performance of the computer. Keeping frequently accessed data and instructions in the cache avoids accessing the slower primary memory. Working of the Cache Memory When a program is being executed and the CPU wants to read data or instructions, then the following steps will be performed: CPU first checks whether the data or instruction is available in cache memory. If it is not present, the CPU reads the data or instructions from the main memory into the processor registers. The CPU also copies it into the cache memory. When the same piece of data/instruction is needed, the CPU reads it from the cache memory instead of the main memory

Concept Of Hardware and Software

Concept Hardware and Software The concept of hardware and software is very simple in the computer. A computer system is made of two parts- Hardware and Software. Hardware All physical parts of the computer can be said as hardware of the computer. For example, all the input and output devices from the parts of the computer. If we think of computer as a living being, then the hardware would be the body. Since the computer hardware is a part of a machine, it can only understand two basic concepts: 'ON' and 'OFF'. The 'ON' and 'OFF' concepts is called binary. Computer software was developed to tell the computer hardware what to do. Software The computer hardware cannot think and make decision on its own. The hardware needs a software to instruct what to be done. A program is a set of instruction that is arranged in a sequence to guide a computer to find a solution for the given problem. The process of writing a program is called programming .

What is CPU (Central Processing Unit) Architecture

What is CPU (Central Processing Unit) Architecture CPU or Central Processing unit can be called the brain of the computer system because the entire processing of data is done here. It is made up of more than one microprocessors which consist of two main parts - Arithmetic and Logical Unit (ALU) and Control Unit(CU) . Arithmetic and Logical Unit The ALU performs all kinds of calculations, such as arithmetic fadd, subtract, multiply, divide, etc.), comparison (less than, greater than, or equal to), and other operations. The intermediate results of processing may be stored in the main memory, as they might be required again. When the processing completes, the final result is then transferred to the main memory. Hence, the data may move from main memory to the ALU multiple times before the processing is over. Control Unit The main function of the CU is to direct and coordinate the computer operations. It interprets the instructions (program) and initiates action to execute them. The CU...
