PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 1.2 The hardware components of the computer and their
functions are correctly identified.
Evidence
CPU
A central processing unit (CPU), also called a central processor or main processor, is
the electronic circuitry within a computer that carries out the instructions of a computer
program by performing the basic arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output (I/O)
operations specified by the instructions.
RAM
Random access memory (or simply RAM) is the memory or information storage in a
computer that is used to store running programs and data for the programs. Data
(information) in the RAM can be read and written quickly in any order. Normally, the
random access memory is in the form of computer chips
ROM
ROM is a special kind of memory which stores the instructions which the computer uses
when it 'boots up' - the BIOS (basic input output system). ... ROM is a type of memory
that retains its data even without power, so even when the computer is switched off, it
will not lose the data which is saved onto it
Hard-disk Drive
A hard disk drive (HDD), hard disk, hard drive, or fixed disk is an electro-mechanical data
storage device that uses magnetic storage to store and retrieve digital information using one or
more rigid rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material.
Hardware
Computer hardware includes the physical, tangible parts or components of a computer, such
as central processing unit, keyboard, computer data storage, graphics card, sound card,
speakers and motherboard. By contrast, software is instructions that can be stored and run
by hardware.
Software
Computer software, or simply software, is a collection of data or computer instructions that
tell the computer how to work. This is in contrast to physical hardware, from which the
system is built and actually performs the work.
7. Bandwidth, Broadband
The terms "disk space" and "storage" usually refer to hard drive storage. Hard drive
storage is typically used for long-term storage of various types of files. Higher capacity
hard drives can store larger amounts and sizes of files, such as videos, music, pictures,
and documents.
Reboot
Firewall
Firewall is a software program that prevents unauthorized access to or
from a private network. Firewalls are tools that can be used to enhance
the security of computers connected to a network, such as LAN or the
Internet. They are an integral part of a comprehensive security framework
for your network.
1. Cookie
Cookies are usually delectable delights, but web cookies can sometimes be less than
delightful. These little files hide in your computer so that your browser and websites can
track your browsing sessions and save certain useful information, such as account names and
passwords, for later retrieval.
Peripheral
In computer networks, download means to receive data from a remote system, typically a
server such as a web server, an FTP server, an email server, or other similar systems. This
contrasts with uploading, where data is sent to a remote server.
URL
USB
A USB flash drive is a device used for data storage that includes a flash memory and an
integrated Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface. Most USB flash drives are removable and
rewritable. Physically, they are small, durable and reliable.
Shareware
Shareware is software that is distributed free on a trial basis with the understanding that the
user may need or want to pay for it later. Some software developers offer a shareware version
of their program with a built-in expiration date (after 30 days, the user can no longer get access
to the program).
File
A file is an object on a computer that stores data, information, settings, or commands used with
a computer program. In a GUI (graphical user interface), such as Microsoft
Windows, files display as icons that relate to the program that opens the file
Driver
More commonly known as a driver, a device driver or hardware driver is a group of files that
enable one or more hardware devices to communicate with the computer's operating system.
Without drivers, the computer would not be able to send and receive data correctly to
hardware devices, such as a printer
NIC
The NIC contains the electronic circuitry required to communicate using a wired connection
(e.g., Ethernet) or a wireless connection (e.g., WiFi). A network interface card is also known
as a network interface controller, network adapter, or Local Area Network (LAN) adapter.
