Abstract of the article:
To understand the different components of computer is to know what is inside of it and its functions such as the fixed disks or hard disks, diskettes, central processing unit (CPU)
Magnetic tape drives, CD-ROM drive, keyboard, mouse etc. The central processing capabilities of the computer, a computer system is actually an integrated set of computing components that’s explaining the program instructions and data are stored.
Three things I learned from my reading assignment:
First, every parts of the computers components is very important like input devices this are used to convert information from a form used by people into a form that is useable by computers so today there are many different ways to get information.
Second, another important part of computer that I’ve learned is the central processing unit (CPU) because CPU can be thought of as the brain of the computer it directs most of the computer’s information – processing activity.
Third, computers are now used to enhance our ability to communicate with each other. And computers system includes devices that are used to get information into the computer. The input devices transfer information out of the computers in a form usable to the people and the other sides of it are output devices.
Implications of the new things I learned to my work and to me as a person:
There were lots of things I have learned that a computer is an electronic device used to process information. It is this function of the computer that placed it at the center of our transition from the industrial period of our society to the information age. Today, we encounter computers in almost every aspect of society. Computers are highly visible in such profession as librarian, archivist, education, etc.
