Central Processing Unit - CPU
The Microprocessor The brains, or main processing unit, of the computer Performs calculations and completes instructions Performance based on clock speed Pentium 4 -- 2.8 GHz chip operates at 2.8 billion cycles
per second
8
Components of the CPU
Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU): processes the data in the registers according to instructions issued by the control unit. Performs arithmetic (addition, subtraction, etc..) and logical (comparison) operations
Registers: provides temporary storage for data and instructions. It handles instructions and data at 10 times the speed of cache memory. Registers facilitate the movement of data and instructions between RAM, the control unit and the ALU
Internal CPU interconnection: some mechanism that provides for communication among the different components of the CPU
9
Control Unit: controls the operation of the CPU and hence the computer. Interprets instructions, moves data to/from memory and registers, instructs ALU to perform certain operations, etc. During program execution, instructions in a program are moved from the RAM into the control unit, where it is decoded and interpreted by the decoder
Flags: 1-bit memory, or 1-bit registers and hold information on what has recently happened in the CPU. These are set to 1 or 0 depending on the results of internal operations such as results of ALU operations (zero or negative result) or external operations such as interrupts (commands that tell the processor to stop execution and wait for further instruction)
10
Memory
RAM – Random Access Memory Can read or write data E.g. cache memory (on the CPU) Measured in MegaBytes (MB) Volatile memory: erased when computer powered
off
ROM – Read only memory Permanently stored information used repeatedly
by computer Can never accept new information Normally installed by system manufacturer Non-volatile
Computers require storage in order to process information.
TWO TYPES OF COMPUTER MEMORY
Temporary
Long-Term
11
Main (Internal) Memory
RAM – Random Access Memory. Temporary read/write memory. Applications are typically loaded into RAM during computer use. Types of RAM include:
SRAM (static) and DRAM (dynamic ) SRAM is called static because the memory retains its
contents as long as power is supplied -- It does not have to be periodically refreshed as in DRAM. It is faster than DRAM (The contents of the memory can be read much faster), however is more expensive and is larger in size
DRAM is called Dynamic RAM because the memory content needs to be refreshed periodically (every few milliseconds) due to leakage of electrical charge. It is slower than SRAM, but cheaper and smaller in size
12
Storage
Provides long-term retention of data on magnetic or optical disk
Hard Drive Disc capacity currently measured in GigaBytes (GB)
Floppy Disc Typical capacity of 1.44 MegaBytes (MB)
Compact Disc 650 MB
Zip Drive Removable floppy discs that store up to 250 MB
DVD Optical storage
13
Input/Output devices
Input Devices - Accepts data from external sources and converts to electric signal
Keyboard, Mouse, Touch screen, Voice activation, Video Camera, Microphone, Scanner, JoyStick
Output Devices - Accepts electric signals from CPU and converts them to an output device.
Monitor Printer Speakers Communication ports
Moves data between the computer and its external environment.

Computer Software
Software consists of instructions and application programs that permit computers to accomplish tasks.
It is called software because, unlike hardware that has fixed configurations, connections, and operation, software is flexible and easily modified.

instructions directly recognized by the CPU
Provides numerical codes directly recognized by the CPU

Not commonly used anymore

17
Assembly Code
Also called Assembly Language Also consists of elementary
instructions directly recognized by the CPU, but uses codes rather than numbers.
Assembly code is different for every type of computer. (i.e. it is CPU specific)
Cumbersome to develop. Difficult to later read and
modify An “assembler” converts
assembly language to machine language.

Operating System Computer program that links
various hardware components to one another
Stored on hard disk Loaded to memory when the
computer is turned on Once in memory, the
operating system takes over and manages the system
Provides a user interface Manages memory Controls directory access Supports hardware Supports applications

The Linux Operating System
Linus Torvalds developed Linux in 1991. Linux’s open source code is freely available on the web. Most software is in a compiled, computer-readable, ready-to-run format that conceals how the software was developed. Open source code is source code that anyone can view/modify. Linux is a competitor to Windows NT/2000, especially in the business “server space.” Other software based on open source code includes the Apache web server and PERL, a web scripting language.
What’s different about Linux? Why do we hear so much about this?
21
Programming Languages
A computer program tells a computer what to do.
Needs to be written in a programming language the computer can understand.
A “compiler” translates almost
human syntax into lower level code the computer can “execute.”
Theoretically no longer CPU-specific like assembly code.
What are some examples of programming languages?

Key Programming Terms
Programming is telling the computer what to do. Source Code is a series of commands written in a
programming language. Programming languages are sometimes divided into 4
categories: 1GL (first generation language) - Machine language 2GL (second generation language) - Assembly language 3GL (third generation languages) - Cobol, Pascal, C, Basic 4GL (fourth generation languages) - vague, diverse term
that includes object oriented programming languages, visual languages, and markup languages.
23
Application Software
Program at the command of the user. Application programs can be
downloaded from web sites or installed from a CD-ROM. They install almost automatically.

management system) AOL Instant Messenger Voice Recognition Software Oracle DBMS Netscape Navigator
