What Is It
Guide Questions:
* What is Computer?
* What are the different types of Computer?
* What are the different types of Personal Computer?
* What is the primary operation of each Computer?
A computer is an electronic device that has the capability to manipulate

information or data, store, retrieve, and process it for more useful information. It is
programmable so it can respond to specific instructions or commands.
Computers of the earlier years were of the size of a large room and were
required to consume huge amounts of electric power. However, with the advancing
technology, computers have shrunk to the size of a small watch. Depending on the
processing power and size of computers, they have been classified under various
types. Let us look at the classification of computers.
Different Types of Computers

Based on the operational principle of computers, they are categorized as analog,
digital and hybrid computers.
Analog Computers: These are almost extinct today. These are different from a
digital computer because an analog computer can perform several mathematical
operations simultaneously. It uses continuous variables for mathematical operations
and utilizes mechanical or electrical energy.
Figure1. Different Types of Computer
Digital Computers: They use digital circuits and are designed to operate on two
states, namely bits 0 and 1. They are analogous to states ON and OFF. Data on
these computers is represented as a series of 0s and 1s. Digital computers are
suitable for complex computation and have higher processing speeds. They are
programmable. Digital computers are either general purpose computers or special
purpose ones. Special purpose computers, as their name suggests, are designed
for specific types of data processing while general purpose computers are meant for
general use.
Hybrid Computers: These computers are a combination of both digital and analog
computers. In this type of computers, the digital segments perform process control
by conversion of analog signals to digital ones.
Classification of Computers
The following are the classification of the different types of computers based
on their sizes and functionalities:
Mainframe Computers: Large organizations use mainframes for highly critical

applications such as bulk data processing and ERP. Most of the mainframe computers
have the capacities to host multiple operating systems and operate as a number of
virtual machines and can substitute for several small servers.
Minicomputers: In terms of size and processing capacity, minicomputers lie in

between mainframes and microcomputers. Minicomputers are also called mid-range
systems or workstations. The term began to be popularly used in the 1960s to refer to
relatively smaller third generation computers.
Servers: They are computers designed to provide services to client machines in a

computer network. They have larger storage capacities and powerful processors.
Running on them are programs that serve client requests and allocate resources like
memory and time to client machines. Usually they are very large in size, as they have
large processors and many hard drives. They are designed to be fail-safe and resistant
to crash.
Supercomputers: The highly calculation-intensive tasks can be effectively performed

by means of supercomputers. Quantum physics, mechanics, weather forecasting,
molecular theory are best studied by means of supercomputers. Their ability of parallel
processing and their well-designed memory hierarchy give the supercomputers, large
transaction processing powers.
Figure2. Classification of Computer
Microcomputers: A computer with a microprocessor and its central processing unit it

is known as a microcomputer. They do not occupy space as much as mainframes do.
When supplemented with a keyboard and a mouse, microcomputers can be called
personal computers. A monitor, a keyboard and other similar input output devices,
computer memory in the form of RAM and a power supply unit come packaged in a
microcomputer. These computers can fit on desks or tables and prove to be the best
choice for single-user tasks.
Personal computers come in different forms such as desktops, laptops and
personal digital assistants (refer to Figure 3). Let us look at each of these types of
computers.
Desktops: A desktop is intended to be used on a single location. The spare parts of

a desktop computer are readily available at relatively lower costs. Power consumption
is not as critical as that in laptops. Desktops are widely popular for daily use in the
workplace and households.
Laptops: Similar in operation to desktops, laptop computers are miniaturized and

optimized for mobile use. Laptops run on a single battery or an external adapter that
charges the computer batteries.
Netbooks: They fall in the category of laptops, but are inexpensive and relatively
smaller in size. They had a smaller feature set and lesser capacities in comparison to
regular laptops, at the time they came into the market.
Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs): It is a handheld computer and popularly known
as a palmtop. It has a touch screen and a memory card for storage of data. PDAs can
also be used as portable audio players, web browsers and smart phones. Most of them
can access the Internet by means of Bluetooth or Wi-Fi communication.
Tablet Computers: Tablets are mobile computers that are very handy to use. They
use the touch screen technology. Tablets come with an onscreen keyboard or use a
stylus or a digital pen. Apple's iPod redefined the class of tablet computers.
Wearable Computers: A record-setting step in the evolution of computers was the creation of
wearable computers. These computers can be worn on the body and are often used in the study
of behavior modeling and human health. Military and health professionals have incorporated
wearable computers into their daily routine, as a part of such studies. When the users' hands
and sensory organs are engaged in other activities, wearable computers are of great help in
tracking human actions. Wearable computers do not have to be turned on and off and remain
in operation without user intervention

5 Basic Operations of a Computer System

Inputting
Storing
Processing
Outputting
Controlling
The internal structure of a computer looks like above:
Input unit:
Input unit links the external environment with the computer system. Data and
instruction must be entered to the computer before performing any competition. Data
or instructions can be entered through input devices.
eg. Key board, or any other input devices.
Input unit transferred this data into binary coded in short input unit performs the
following function:
It accepts data or instructions from external world.

It converts these instructions and data in computer acceptable form.
It supplies the converted instruction & data to the computer for further processing.
Output unit:
The job of output unit it is just the viewers of that any input unit it provides
information reasons of computation to the output of the world. Output unit links the
computer with the external world. A computer prepares results in binary code. Output
unit converts these results into human acceptable forms. In short perform the
following functions.
It accepts the result produced by the computer.

It converts these coded results to human acceptable form.
It supplies the converted to the outside world.
Storage unit:
Before actual processing start, data & instructions entered to the computer must be
stored inside the computer. Similarly, results produced by the computer are required
to be stored before being passed to the output unit. The intermediate result produced
by the computer must also be stored for further processing. In short the function of
storage unit:
 It stores all the data to be process.

 It stores intermediate results.
 It stores final result are realizing an output device.
ALU:
ALU is the place where actual execution of the instructions takes places during the
processing operations. All calculations & comparisons are made in the ALU. The
data and instructions stored in the primary storage are transferred as where
required. Intermediate results are also transferred back to the ALU for the final
processing. After completion of processing the final results are send to storage units
from ALU.
Number of arithmetic & logical operation that a computer can perform is determined
by the design to perform the four basic arithmetic operations. They are +,-,*,/. The
logic operations like <,=,>.
Control unit:
ALU dose not know what should be done with the data likewise, output unit dose not
know when the result should be displayed. By selecting, interning and seeing to the
execution of the program the CU is able to maintain order and direct the operations
of the entire system CU doesn’t perform any actual processing on data yet it is
known as a central nervous system for the comforts of the computer.
It manages co-ordinates the entire system.
