4. Information Processing System
DATA is a collection of independent and u
norganized facts.
INFORMATION is the processed and orga
nized data presented in a meaningful form.
DATA PROCESSING is the course of doin
g things in a sequence of steps.
5. Information Processing System
COMPUTER is an electronic machine that
follows a set of instructions in order that it
may be able to accept and gather data an
d transform these into information.
7. Functions of an Information Proces
sing System
1. It accepts and gather data. (INPUT)
2. It processes data to become information.
(PROCESSING)
3. It stores data and information. (STORE)
4. It presents information. (OUTPUT)
8. Three Major Components of an Info
rmation Processing System
HARDWARE is the tangible part of a comp
uter system.
SOFTWARE is the non-tangible part that t
ells the computer how to do its job.
PEOPLEWARE refer to people who use a
nd operate the computer system, write co
mputer programs, and analyze and design
the information system.
9. Basic Units of Measurement
BIT is a unit of information equivalent to th
e result of a choice between only 2 possibl
e alternatives in the binary number system
.
BYTE is a sequence of 8 bits (enough to r
epresent one character of alphanumeric d
ata) processed as a single unit for informat
ion.
10. Basic Units of Measurement
A byte can be used to represent a single c
haracter, which can be:
A letter
A number
A special character or symbol, or
A space
11.
12. Basic Units of Measurement
1,000 bytes =1 kilobyte (K or KB)
1,000 KB =1 megabyte (MB)
1,000 MB =1 gigabyte (GB)
1,000 GB =1 Terabyte (TB)
15. Basic hardware of a PC system
Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Memory Unit
Input Devices
Output Devices
Secondary Storage Devices
16. 1. Central Processing Unit
Brain of the computer.
It directs and controls the entire computer
system and performs all arithmetic and log
ical operations.
17. 2. Memory Unit
Where the programs and dat
a are stored .
READ ONLY MEMORY (RO
M) contains the pre-program
med computer instructions su
ch as the Basic Input Output
System (BIOS).
RANDOM ACCESS MEMOR
Y (RAM) is used to store the p
rograms and data that you will
run. Exists only when there is
power.
18.
19. 3. Input Devices
Allows data and programs to be sent to th
e CPU.
Keyboard
Mouse
Joystick
Microphone
Webcam
Scanner
Monitor
21. Two Types of Mouse
Mechanical - a type of co
mputer mouse that has a ru
bber or metal ball on its un
derside and it can roll in ev
ery direction.
Optical: This type uses a l
aser for detecting the mous
e's movement.
22. How a Mouse Hooks Up to a PC
PS/2 Mouse
Serial Mouse
USB/Cordless Mouse
24. Joystick – input device for
computer games
Light Pens – light-sensitiv
e penlike device
Stylus – penlike device co
mmonly used with tablet
PCs and PDAs.
25. Scanning Devices
Optical scanners
Card readers
Bar code readers
Character and mark recognition devices
27. 4. Output Devices
Media used by the computer in displaying i
ts responses to our requests and instructio
ns.
Monitor
Audio Speakers
Printer
28. Types of Monitor
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
29. Printers
IMPACT PRINTERS uses pressure by phy
sically striking the paper. Ex. Daisy wheel
printers, line printers, dot matrix printers &
band printers.
NON-IMPACT PRINTER does not apply pr
essure on the paper but instead produces
character by using lasers, ink spray, photo
graphy or heat.
31. Conclusion
Computer hardware is the collection of
physical components that constitute a
computer hardware is the physical parts
or components of a computer.Such as a
monitor, keyboard, computerdata
storage,grafic card, sound card,
motherboard and so on.
