Pengenalan Komputer

  • Chapter 1
All computers take in information called input and give out information called output

 

The computer’s versatility is built upon its:
  1. Hardware : The pysichal part
  2. Software: The instructions that tells hardware how to   transform the input data (information in a form it can   read) into the necessary output.
 The first real computer :
  1. 1939: Konrad Zuse completed the first programmable, general-purpose digital computer.
  2. At about the same time, the British government was assembling a top-secret team of mathematicians and engineers to crack Nazi military codes. 
  3. 1943: The team led by mathematician Alan Turing and others completed Colossus, considered by many to be the first electronic digital computer.
  4. 1939: Iowa State University professor John Atanasoff developed what could have been the first electronic digital computer, the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC).
  5. 1944: Thanks to a one million dollar grant from IBM, Harvard professor Howard Aiken developed the Mark I. 
Vacuum tubes were used in early computers.
Trainsistors replaced vacuum tubes starting in 1956,by the mid-1960s transistors were replaced by intergrated circuits.

Integrated circuits brought:
  • Increased reliability
  • Smaller size
  • Higher speed
  • Higher efficiency
  • Lower cost
There are 5 types of computer :
  1. Desktop computer
  2. Embedded computer
  3. Personal computer
  4. Mainframes
  5. Supercomputer
  • Chapter 2

Basic Functions of a Computer :
  1. Receive input : Accept information from the outside world
  2. Process information : Perform arithmetic or logical operations on information
  3. Produce output : Communicate information to the outside world
  4. Store information : Move and store information in memory
 Basic Components of a Computer :
  1. Input devices : Keyboards and pointing devices
  2. Output devices : Display, Printer and speakers
  3. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
 Bits as Codes
  1. ASCII
  2. Unicode
Bit-related terminology
  • Byte = 8 bits
  • Kilobyte = 1 thousands bytes
  • Megabyte = 1 milion bytes
  • Gigabyte = 1 billion bytes
  • Terabytes = 1 trillion bytes
RAM (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY)
  • Used to store program instructions and data temporarily
  • Unique addresses anda data can be stored in any location
  • Can quickly retrieve information
  • Will not remain if power goes off (volatile)
 ROM (READ ONLY MEMORY)
  • Information stored permanently on a chip
  • Contains startup instructions and other permanent data
CMOS (COMPLEMENTARY METAL OXIDE SEMICONDUCTOR)
  • Special low-energy kind of RAM
FLASH MEMORY
  • Used for phones,pagers,portable computers and PDAs
  •  Chapter 3
Input devices :
  1. Keyboard : used to enter letters, numbers, and special characters
  2. Pointing Devices : like mouse, touchpad, pointing stick
  3. Reading Tools : read marks representing codes specially designed for computer input
Output devices :
  1. Screen Output
  2. Paper Output
  3. Fax Machines and Fax Modems
  4. Sound Card
  5. Synthesizers
  • Chapter 4
Operating system functions :
  1. Supports multitasking
  2. Manages virtual memory
  3. Maintains file system
  4. Responsible for authentication and author
    -Win
Hardware and software platforms :
  • Windows Vista
  • Windows Server 2003
  • Windows XP
  • Windows ME
  • Microsoft Windows CE
  • Mac OS X
  • Mac OS 9
  • Linux,Unix
  •   Chapter 5
  Doug Engelbart
  • One of the pioneers of the computer hardware and software
Wordsmith's Toolbox
  • Working with a word processor involves several steps : entering text, editing text, formatting the document, proofreading the document, saving the document on disk, printing the document
 Lesson Summary :
  • Even though the computer was designed to work with numbers, it can be an important tool for working with words as well.
  • Word processing software enables you to use commands to edit text on screen, without having to retype messages.
  • Outlining software, spell checkers, and online references can be very helpful.
  • Desktop publishing produces professional-quality text-and-graphics documents.
  • Spreadsheets can be used for tracking, calculating, forecasting, and almost any other task that involves repetitive numeric calculations. Most spreadsheet programs have charting capabilities.
  • Specialized software allows you to perform accounting tasks, tax preparation, and a variety of business functions without the aid of spreadsheets.
  • Symbolic mathematic and statistical-analysis software can help present data in meaningful ways.
  • Scientific visualization software can help us understand relationships that are invisible to the naked eye. 
  • Computer modeling and simulation can be powerful tools for understanding the world and making better decisions.
  • Chapter 6
Pixels : tiny dots of white, black, or color that make up images on the screen.
Palette of tools mimics real-world painting tools
Bitmapped graphics : pictures that show how the pixels are mapped on the screen.
Color depth : the number of bits devoted to each pixel.
Resolution : the density of the pixels


Computer Aided Design (CAD) software: Allows engineers, designers, and architects to create designs on screen for products ranging from computer chips to public buildings, can test product prototypes , Cheaper, faster, and more accurate than traditional design-by-hand techniques

Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) is the process by which data related to the product design are fed into a program that controls the manufacturing of parts.

Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) refers to the combination of CAD/CAM and is a major step toward a fully automated factory.

Analog and Digital Video : A video digitizer can convert analog video signals from a television broadcast or videotape into digital data

Audio digitizer – captures sound and stores it as a data file

Synthesizeran electronic instrument that synthesizes sounds using mathematical formulas

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) standard interface that allows electronic instruments and computers to communicate with each other

  • Chapter 7
A database:  A collection of information stored on computer disks
Advantages offered by computerized databases:
    • Make it easier to store large quantities of information
    • Make it easier to retrieve information quickly and flexibly
    • Make it easy to organize and reorganize information
    • Make it easy to print and distribute information in a variety of ways 
  • Import: receive data in the form of text files
  • Browse: navigate through information
  • Query: find records that match specific criteria
  • Batch processing: users accumulate transactions and input them into the computer in large batches
  • Real-Time computing: allows instant access to information
  • Interactive processing: has replaced batch processing for most applications
o   Users can now interact with data through terminals, viewing and changing values online in real-time.
o   Batch processing is still used for jobs in which it makes sense to do a lot of transactions at once.
  • Data Mining:
    • The discovery and extraction of hidden predictive information from large databases
    • Uses statistical methods and artificial intelligence technology
