Upon completion of this lecture, the student will be able to: Define and describe the hardware components of computer systems Identify the basic elements of computer networks
5
Types of computer Mainframe Mini Microcomputer Notebook / laptop Slate / tablet PDAs, smartphones, other mobile devices
6
Central processing unit (CPU) / microprocessor Motherboard RAM and ROM Hard drive Graphics card (VGA, DVI, HDMI) Optical drive Disk drive Other jacks/ports (serial, parallel, USB, eSATA, Firewire)
7
Input devices Keyboard Mouse and related pointing devices Touchscreen Scanner Output devices Monitor Printer
8
Any system in which computers can exchange data or a user can remotely access a computer Two computers exchanging data Group of users accessing common files remotely on central office server Dumb terminal connecting to remote server User surfing Internet
9
Communication and sharing of information Sharing resources Transactions/services
10
Cables and wiring Network cards (wired, wireless) Modems Hubs Switches Routers Servers
11
Among the many possible ways: Scope: extent Structure: physical or logical arrangement
12
Can distinguish among different geographic expanses among the computers connected by the network Local area network (LAN) within office building Metropolitan area network (MAN) within a city Wide area network (WAN) linking cities across country
13
Variety of architectures and topologies Peer-to-peer Client-server Bus, ring, star topologies Distributed computing Virtual Private Networks
14
Open Systems Interconnection, developed by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Seven layers – from highest to lowest 7. Application 6. Presentation 5. Session 4. Transport 3. Network 2. Data link 1. Physical
15
For each layer, various protocols/standards, including following small sample 7. Application (HTTP – Hypertext Transfer Protocol; FTP – File Transfer Protocol; Telnet) 6. Presentation (MIME – Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions; SSL – Secure Sockets Layer) 5. Session (NetBIOS – Network Basic Input/Output System; PPTP – point to point tunneling protocol) 4. Transport (TCP – Transmission Control Protocol; UDP – User Datagram Protocol) 3. Network (IVv4 - Internet Protocol version 4; IPv6; Appletalk) 2. Data link (Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM); Frame Relay, IEEE 802.3 – Ethernet) 1. Physical (POTS – telephone; SONET – synchronous optical networking (fiber optic cable); OTN – optical transport network (fiber optic cable); IEEE 802.3 – Ethernet; USB; Bluetooth; DSL – digital subscriber line)
16
ARPANET among a few universities in 1969 TCP/IP (transmission control protocol / internet protocol), for encapsulating data content into packets for transmission, became standard in 1982 In 1990 Tim Berners-Lee invents Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), creates first Browser, enabling display of graphics on Internet
17
Internet Protocol (IP) address: each computer assigned IP address Internet Service Provider (ISP): computer connects to local node of Internet by local ISP Network Service Provider (NSP): local and regional ISPs connect to large Network Service Providers
18
Domain Name Service (DNS): Multitude of DNS servers exist throughout Web to translate URL of Website into IP address of Website Website is hosted on server computer that can respond to requests by sending IP packets back to user’s computer
19
In this lecture we discussed Hardware components of computer systems Basic elements of computer networks
