Computer Network

A computer network is a set of computers connected together for the purpose of sharing resources. The most common resource shared today is connection to the Internet. Other shared resources can include a printer or a file server.

 A computer network is a system in which multiple computers are connected to each other to share information and resources.
Characteristics of a Computer Network:-
·        Share resources from one computer to another.
·        Create files and store them in one computer, access those files from the other computer(s) connected over the network.
·        Connect a printer, scanner, or a fax machine to one computer within the network and let other computers of the network use the machines available over the network.
A computer network is a set of connected computers. Computers on a network are called nodes. The connection between computers can be done via cabling, most commonly the Ethernet cable, or wireless through radio waves. Connected computers can share resources, like access to the Internet, printers, file servers, and others. A network is a multipurpose connection, which allows a single computer to do more.
Following is the list of hardware's required to set up a computer network.
  • Network Cables
  • Distributors
  • Routers
  • Internal Network Cards
  • External Network Cards
Network and Computer Systems Administrators are responsible for the day-to-day operation of an organization's computer networks. They organize, install, and support an organization's computer systems, including: Local area networks (LANs) Wide area networks (WANs)

Characteristics Of Computer

                        1. SPEED :- Computer is very fast calculating device. It can execute basic operations like substraction,addition,multiplication and division at a few microseconds. It can move and copy data at a speed in the order of billion instruction per second.  2. ACCURACY :- Computer always gives accurate results. The accuracy of Computer does not go down when they are used continuously for hours together. It always gives accurate results.  3. STORAGE CAPACITY :- Computer have a very large storage capacity. A  large volume of information can be stored in the memory of computer and information can be retrieved correctly when desired.  4. VERSATILITY:- The working of computer with different types of data is known as versatillity. That means computer can perform different types of job efficiently. Computer can works with differents type of data and informa...

Computer memory:-

Memory is an essential elements of computer system memory can be defined as "devices used to stored data instruction program and processed it inside the computer system . A memory is just like a human brain. It is used to store data and instructions. Computer memory is the storage space in the computer, where data is to be processed and instructions required for processing are stored. In other word we can say that "Computer memory is any physical device capable of storing information temporarily or permanently". Computer memory is three types:- 1. Cache memory 2. Primary memory 3. Secondary memory. 1. cache Memory - Cache memory is a very high speed semiconductor memory which can speed up the CPU. It acts as a buffer between the CPU and the main memory. It is used to hold those parts of data and program which are most frequently used by the CPU.  Advantages The advantages of cache memory are as follows − Cache memory is faster than main me...

Working Process of Computer

Computer is an electronic device its work with the help of  1. Data 2. Process 3. Information 1.  Data  :- Data is a fractional part of information some time data has meaning or meaningless if data has meaning then meaning couldn't affect to human beings. 2 .  Process: -  A set of steps carried out the refined data is called process in      processing  in processing computer convert data into information. 3.  Information:-  collection of data is called information when its meaning effect to human beings.
