Computer system

A computer system is one that is able to take a set of inputs, process them and create a set of outputs. This is done by a combination of hardware and software.

The diagram below shows you the idea of a computer system in its most basic form

The computer system has one or more

For processing to take place, there needs to be a set of instructions of what needs to be done. This set of instructions is called a

This system is called a

The very first commercial computer in the entire world of this type was built in Britain in 1949 and was called the Manchester (Ferranti) Mark 1, see below.

The components of modern computer science

Computer Classification, By Size and Power Computers can be generally classified by size and power as follows, though there is considerable overlap: personal computer: a small, single-user computer based on a microprocessor. In addition to the microprocessor, a personal computer has a keyboard for entering data, a monitor for displaying information, and a storage device for saving data. workstation: a powerful, single-user computer. A workstation is like a personal computer, but it has a more powerful microprocessor and a higher-quality monitor. minicomputer: a multi-user computer capable of supporting from 10 to hundreds of users simultaneously. mainframe: a powerful multi-user computer capable of supporting many hundreds or thousands of users simultaneously. supercomputer: an extremely fast computer that can perform hundreds of millions of instructions per second.

Common PC Components This table lists all of the common computer components, what they connect to and what they are used for.

№	COMPONENT	PURPOSE
1	Motherboard	The motherboard or mainboard is the main circuitboard which interconnects to all other components. The motherboard allows communication and power to flow throughout the computer system.
2	Processor (CPU)	The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the brain of the computer system. This is the part of the computer which processes all inputs and decides how they will be outputed.
3	Memory (RAM)	Random Access Memory (RAM) is your computers short term memory and enables the computer system to perform multitasking functions such as copy and paste or type information into a word document without it saving.
4	Video/Graphics Card	The Video/Graphics Card is responsible for receiving visual inputs and displaying (outputing) all visual data. Graphics processing has a very difficult task which is why modern graphics cards now have Graphics Processor Units (GPU) which work like a CPU but for visual data only. This allows quicker rendering of 3D images and streaming of high definition video and leaves the CPU free to work on all other data.
5	Network Interface Card (NIC)	The Network Interface Card (NIC) allows your computer system to communicate and pass data to other computer systems within a Local Area Network (LAN) or over the internet to Wide Area Networks (WAN).
6	Hard Drive (HDD)	The Hard Drive (HDD) is the long term storage for your computer system. Hard Drives are used to archive and store data for future retreival.
7	CD/DVD Drive (ROM)	The CD/DVD ROM Drive allows your computer system to read data from external media like CDs and DVDs. Generally there are two types of CD/DVD ROM; readers and writers (burners).
8	Sound Card	The Sound Card allows for the input (Microphones) and output (Speakers) of audio related data.

Think of a Motherboard as:

Futuristic City with many modular plug-in buildings, using power from a common electrical system

Multiple-lane highways of various widths transporting data between buildings

Data and power infrastructure for the entire computer

Chipset and Functions

Different chips integrated to a single chip called the chipset.

The North bridge controls faster I/P components likes Graphics and Memory (RAM)

The south bridge controls the slower I/O components like the Serial ports, USB ports and the IDE.
