Computer Organization: Detailed Explanation Computer Organization refers to the operational structure of the computer system and describes the components that make up a computer and how they work together to execute instructions. It involves the physical aspects of the system's design and how the various parts interact, such as the central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output devices, and buses. 1.

Computer Hardware: An Overview
Computer hardware refers to the physical components that make up a computer system. These components work together to execute instructions and perform tasks. Hardware is essential to the functioning of any computer, and it includes both the internal components (like the CPU and memory) and external components (like input and output devices). Hardware components can be broadly categorized into three main groups: 1. Central Processing Unit (CPU) 2. Memory and Storage 3. Input and Output Devices

Computer Software: An Overview Computer software refers to the set of programs, applications, and instructions that enable a computer to perform specific tasks. Unlike hardware, which refers to the physical components of a computer, software is intangible and controls the hardware to make it functional for the user. Software can be divided into two broad categories: 1. System Software 2. Application Software 3. Programming Languages (or Programming Software)

Operating System: An Overview
An Operating System (OS) is a collection of software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs. The operating system acts as an intermediary between users and the computer hardware. It ensures that hardware and software components work together efficiently and provides a user-friendly environment for interacting with the system. The operating system is the most fundamental program running on a computer, as it coordinates and controls all other programs and tasks. Without an operating system, a computer would be a collection of hardware components without any functional cohesion. 1.functions of operating system 2.types of operating system

Computer Networks: An Overview
A computer network is a system of interconnected computers and devices that can communicate with each other to share resources, exchange data, and provide various services. Computer networks can be small, like a home network, or vast, like the internet, enabling communication across the globe. 1.what is network 2.network types 3. network devices 4. protocols 5.

Cyber Security: An Overview
Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks, damage, or unauthorized access. The primary goal of cybersecurity is to safeguard the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information and prevent cyberattacks that can cause financial loss, data theft, or disruption of services. As digital systems become more integrated into everyday life, cybersecurity becomes increasingly crucial in ensuring the safety of personal, organizational, and governmental data. 1.WHAT IS CYBER SECURITY 2.TYPES OF THREATS 3.SECURITY MEASURES 4.AUTHENTICATION

Troubleshooting and Maintenance: An Overview
Troubleshooting and maintenance are crucial aspects of ensuring that computer systems, devices, and networks function optimally. Troubleshooting helps identify and resolve issues that arise during the operation of a system, while maintenance involves regular tasks to keep the system running smoothly and efficiently. Both are essential for ensuring reliability, performance, and longevity of computer hardware and software. 1.BASIC TROUBLE SHOOTING 2.SYSTEM UPDATES 3.DATA BACKUPS 4.ROUTINE MAINTAINANCE

About Lesson

A protocol is a set of rules or standards used to govern communication between devices in a network. Protocols ensure that devices on a network can exchange data in a structured and predictable manner. Some commonly used protocols include:

  1. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
  • Function: TCP ensures reliable and ordered delivery of data across a network. It breaks data into packets and ensures that packets are reassembled correctly at the receiving end.
  • Use: Used in applications that require reliable transmission, such as web browsing (HTTP), email (SMTP), and file transfers (FTP).
  1. Internet Protocol (IP)
  • Function: IP is responsible for addressing and routing packets of data to their destination across different networks. Each device on a network is assigned a unique IP address.
  • Use: Used for routing data across the internet and local networks.
  1. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
  • Function: HTTP is used for transferring web pages and other content over the World Wide Web (WWW). It defines how requests and responses between a client (like a web browser) and a server should be formatted.
  • Use: Browsing websites and retrieving web content.
  1. File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
  • Function: FTP is used for transferring files between a client and a server on a network. It supports both upload and download of files.
  • Use: File sharing between computers or uploading files to a server.
  1. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
  • Function: SMTP is used for sending and routing emails between email servers.
  • Use: Sending email from a client to a mail server or between mail servers.
