COMPUTER SYSTEM AND ICT

A computer system is a set of integrated devices that input, output, process, and store data and information. Computer systems are currently built around at least one digital processing device. There are five main hardware components in a computer system: Input, Processing, Storage, Output and Communication devices.

 ICT encompasses both the internet-enabled sphere as well as the mobile one powered by wireless networks. It also includes antiquated technologies, such as landline telephones, radio and television broadcast -- all of which are still widely used today alongside cutting-edge ICT pieces such as artificial intelligence and robotics.

THE IMPORTANCE OF ICT DAILY LIFE

Apart from communication, that is, reaching people both far and near; it has also made the work easier and better. Information and communications technology (ICT) is used in most of the fields such as e-commerce, e-governance, banking, agriculture, education, medicine, defence, transport, etc.

THE HARDWARE ASPECT OF COMPUTING TECHNOLOGY

Computer hardware includes the physical parts of a computer, such as the case, central processing unit (CPU), random access memory (RAM), monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, graphics card, sound card, speakers and motherboard.

• Central Processing Unit(CPU)

The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the primary component of a computer that acts as its “control center.” The CPU, also referred to as the “central” or “main” processor, is a complex set of electronic circuitry that runs the machine’s operating system and apps. The CPU interprets, processes and executes instructions, most often from the hardware and software programs running on the device.

• Storage

A storage device is any type of computing hardware that is used for storing, porting or extracting data files and objects. Storage devices can hold and store information both temporarily and permanently. They may be internal or external to a computer, server or computing device.

• Input

In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system, such as a computer or information appliance. Examples of input devices include keyboards, mouse, scanners, cameras, joysticks, and microphones.

• Output

An output device is a piece of computer equipment that receives data from one source and converts it into another form. Depending on their function, output devices can transform data into various other forms such as audio, visual or physical copy.
