The document summarizes the stages of the fetch-execute cycle in a computer system. It describes each stage of the process, including fetch, input, decode, processor, execute, memory, and output. Images are provided to illustrate some of the stages.
The document summarizes the basic process of how a computer works from input to output. It begins with fetch which retrieves information, then input which inserts the needed information through devices like a mouse and keyboard. Decode sorts and analyzes the information. Processed sends the information to be executed. Memory, both RAM and ROM, store the information. Output displays the processed information through devices like a printer, monitor, and speakers. The years 1986-1988 saw the rise of standard silicon CPUs and early quantum computers in laboratories.
The document summarizes the basic flow of data in a computer system and provides a brief history of computing. It describes the four main parts of a computer as the input, output, memory, and microprocessor. The microprocessor fetches instructions from memory, decodes what they mean, and then executes them. Some key events in computing history from 1967-1968 included GPS becoming commercially available, Nokia being formed, Intel Corporation being founded, and Seiko releasing a miniature printer for calculators.
During the 1950s, researchers at Stanford Research Institute invented ERMA, the first computerized system for processing banking transactions. ERMA automated check processing and account management. It also introduced magnetic ink character recognition to allow computers to read information from checks.
In 1971, IBM introduced the first floppy disk, allowing for portable data storage and transportation between computers.
In 1975, Steve Wozniak created one of the first personal computers, the Apple, along with Steve Jobs. Wozniak was inspired by early computer kits but found them too complex, so he set out to design an easy to use personal computer.

It defines a computer as an electronic device that accepts input, processes it, and provides output. It describes the typical components of a computer system as including input and output units, a memory unit, a central processing unit (CPU) with an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and control unit, and secondary storage. The CPU acts as the brain and controls the various parts to coordinate input/output and processing according to instructions stored in memory.
This document describes TaintScope, a tool for automatic software vulnerability detection through checksum-aware directed fuzzing. It monitors program execution to identify input bytes that influence sensitive operations ("hot bytes") and checksum checks. It generates malformed inputs focusing on hot bytes, and alters execution to bypass checksum checks. When inputs cause crashes, it symbolically solves for valid checksum fields to generate exploitable test cases. TaintScope found 27 previously unknown vulnerabilities across applications like Acrobat Reader, Picasa, and Winamp. Its effectiveness is limited for strong integrity schemes like cryptography but it can dramatically reduce the mutation space for fuzzing through directed fuzzing and checksum bypass.
