2. An external device attaches to the
computer by a link to an Input Output
module.
An external device linked to an I/O
module is called peripheral device or
peripheral.
Human readable suitable for
communicating with computer user.

4. A Human Readable medium or human
readable format is a representation
of data or information that can be
naturally read by Humans.
In computing human readable data is
often encoded as ASCII or Unicode
text , rather than presented in a
binary representation.
5. A machine readable document is a
document whose content can be
readily processed by computers.
Such documents are distinguished
from machine readable data by
virtue of having sufficient structure
to provide the necessary context to
support the business process for
which they are created.
6. Human Readable input is what it
says , a human could easily read and
understand it.
Machine readable is convenient for
the machine and is raw binary in the
format the machine uses normally.
7. I/O module stands for Input Output
module.
Which is a device that acts as the
connective bridge between a
computer system at one end and an
input output or peripheral device of
some kind at the other, such as
printer, webcam or scanner
8.
9. Channel I/O Requires the use of
instruction that are specifically
designed to perform I/O operation.
The I/O instruction address the
channel and device. The channel
asynchronously accesses all other
required addressing and control
information. This is similar to DMA ,
But more flexible.

11. Input output does not inform CPU
directly Programmed I/O.
Interrupt driven I/O.
Direct Memory Access.
Programmed I/O :
CPU requests input output operation.
Input Output module performs
operation.
12. Overcomes CPU waiting no repeated
CPU checking of device.
CPU issues read command.
I/O module get data from peripheral
while CPU does other work.
13.
14. DMA Function :
Additional module hardware on bus.
DMA controller takes over from CPU
for I/O.
o Read/write.
o Device address.
o Staring address of data.
