COMPUTER
OVERVIEW
![Page 2: computer system overview](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052905/5583ce94d8b42a7c758b5341/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
WHAT IS A COMPUTER???????????
• A computer is an electronic device that can perform many operations in accordance with a set of instructions called program..

FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS OF A COMPUTER
INPUT UNIT CPU
(Central Processing Unit)
OUTPUT UNIT
THE MEMORYArithmetic Logic
Unit (ALU)
Control Unit(CU)

• Input Unit• convert data and instructions into electronic form for input into the computer.• E.g.: Keyboard, mouse, OMR(Optical Mark Reader)etc.
• Output Unit • convert electronic data produced by the computer system and display them in a form that people can understand.• E.g.: printer, plotter, VDU(Visual Display Unit), etc.

• The CPU • manipulates raw data into
more useful form and controls the other parts of the computer system.
• The ALU performs the computer’s principal logical and arithmetic operations.
• The CONTROL UNIT coordinates and controls the other parts of the computer system.
• The Memory• A memory cell can be
defined as a device which can store a symbol selected from a set of symbols.• Unit of memory is byte.• 1byte = 8bits

HARDWARE-it refers to the tangible parts that make up the computer system.
Hardware consists of 5 primary components:
INPUT DEVICES
CPU
MEMORY
OUTPUT DEVICES
STORAGE DEVICES

SOFTWARE-it refers to the set of programs of a computer system.
Software is classified into 3 categories:
OPERATING SYSTEM
LANGUAGE PROCESSOR
APPLICATION SYSTEM
![Page 8: computer system overview](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052905/5583ce94d8b42a7c758b5341/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Operating System is a program which acts as an interface between a user and the hardware and controls all other components of the computer system.Examples: Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac OS, etc.,
• Computer System consists of:
1. The hardware2. The operating system3. The application
software4. The human ware(users)

FUNCTIONS OF OS:
1. Manages and Interacts with Computer Hardware2. Provides and Manages System Security3. Provides the System Interface4. Provides the Interface for Application Software5. Program creation6. Program execution7. Input/output operations8. Error detection9. Resource allocation10.Protection

• Language processors are given below:i. Assembler: converts program written in
assembly language to machine language.ii. Interpreter: converts a HLL program to machine
language by converting and executing it line by line.
iii. Compiler: converts the HLL program to machine language by converting it in one go and report all the errors by line.
Since a computer cannot understand the language other than machine language therefore it becomes necessary to process a HLL program to make it understandable. This job is performed by Language Processors.Examples: FORTRAN, C++, java, COBOL, etc.,

Application Software is a set of programs necessary to carry out operations for a specified application.
• Customised Application software: it is developed to meet all the requirements specified by the user. However it cannot be directly installed on any other computer as the requirement may differ.• General Application software: it is
developed by keeping all the general requirements in mind required to carry out a specific task.
