The use of computers as a learning

This work is designed so practical and simple to begin to know a little this tool, recognizing the concepts and features Hardware and Software, Use and resources, Seekers definition and characteristics, all relating to Educational Software and so on and giving a brief description of the main components of a computer. Which we take as a reference for development of our training. Which is based on everything related to the development of all programs and operating systems. Through which is possible to know and have more knowledge on everything related to systems.

OBJECTIVES:

Objectives general:

Develop tools and offer information to facilitate evaluations of quality and that these are available form timely in the time to be utility in the process formation as seen in the induction and subsequent initiation of training as such, which we were informed.

Specific Objectives:

Receive information about everything related to systems and records that are used on the program of training which is defined by the center which we can acquire more knowledge about processors and microprocessors, which is presented in formats education. This allows us to give great validity to anything seen to date both in induction and in the short time we have been training.

Justification:

This document is the development of our knowledge so far learned, by what little we have training which is very necessary to power continue and give a great use to all information which found in, for which so personal thank you the Seine. This is possible by the dedication shown reflected in good understanding of it plan of raised by the training center.

System operating:

It is a software program that provides an interface between the user and the computer, and also manages thousands of applications. Most computers are sold with a operating system already installed. Computers that are designed for individual users are called personal computers (PC). The operating systems PC are designed to control the operation of programs (eg Browsers WebProcessors, text and applications of e-mail). The following An outline on the functions a system OS:

Report refers to storage temporary information on specialized chips. It is temporary, because just shutdown all the information is lost. To keep alive these data units are used storage of equipment, which are generally media magnetic, such as floppy disks or hard drives. There is records information on an ongoing basis information can be recovered when the team back on.

The memory a team refers to the ability of their chips RAM and not the storage capacity of their hard drives. Thus, a PC has a 130GB memory is wrong, rather we talk about 2560MB or 512MB RAM. The memory chips are easily distinguished by open a computer, and pills that look like elongated filled integrated circuits.

The teams then function as follows way: when you start a program, it reads from a storage unit (typically a hard drive) and recorded in memory RAM. There can be accessed both reading as writing from the CPU or processor that alter your data in accordance with the program. When you choose save from the application, it passes its updated information back to the hard drive and when the application is closed, its contents removed from the RAM. That’s the normal cycle.

How much memory is enough?

Another question is that such conventional memory should have a computer. The answer is a strong it depends. It depends on the operating system used, the applications used, the amount of data to manage, and so on. A computer five years ago, for example, Windows 98 and the suite of office only could work well with just 64 MB of RAM.

But today it is recommended to buy a machine with Windows seven, the standard office applications graphic as Corel or photoshop to come at least 2GB. To get an idea of ​​whether your team needs more RAM is good to understand the concept of virtual memory: When the computer runs out of RAM, is used to use the hard drive as memory. This requires moving the data that is in the RAM to disk.

The disk access much slower than memory chips, this operation takes a long time PC performance and generally low. If your team then is suffering from permanent access to disk loading several programs, most likely have very little memory, and benefit greatly from the upgrade. A quick way to see if it is this suffering is through administrator task Windows Seven that reports all the time how much memory is available. If the number falls the 100MB is continually a sign that his memory not enough. The more proffers to shop faster, more applications may be temporary open at some, such as editing of video definitely run faster.

Types of memory RAM:

If you have to buy the first thing to look at is the type of memorized. Technology has evolved rapidly in the motherboard, occupying an important place. This change because with the introduction of memory SIMM chips are soldered to a pad can be removed or put at will and that saving space and grant flexibilities. Now chips called DIMMs are the logical evolution of these original SIMM, using now access to 64-bit processors in accordance with today.

The microprocessor is like brain the computer. It a chip inside which there are thousands or millions of items transistors, the combination allows work vested in the chip. Microprocessors are a set of components that work together. Microprocessors typically have a square or black rectangle, and go or come upon an element called network socket socket in English or soldiers on board, or the case of Pentium II, tucked into a kind of cartridge which is connected to the motherboard although the chip itself is welded on the inside of the cartridge.

Sometimes the microprocessor CPU is called the central process unit, central processing unit), although this term can also refer to the entire box motherboard contains the microprocessor, the cards and other circuits of computer.

In a microprocessor can distinguish different parts:

Encapsulation: is what surrounds the wafer silicon itself, to give consistency, prevent deterioration example by oxidation with air and allow binding external connectors that docked to its base or to the motherboard.

The cache: flash memory serving the microprocessor to have on hand some data are expected to be used in the following operations without resorting to the RAM, reducing the waiting time. This is what is known as first level cache that is which is closest to the microprocessor, while the encapsulated with it. All Intel-type microprocessors from the 486 have this memory.

The math coprocessor: or more correctly, the FDU (floating point, floating point unit). Part of this specialized microprocessor class of calculations mathematical. The rest of the microprocessor: which has several parts (whole unit, records, Etc.).. A Here are some imagery on different processors.

Connectors for micros:

Throughout the history computing have used various methods. To connect microprocessors to motherboards your PC. In this article we will define two of the most have been and are still used today: socket. And slot.

We will concentrate a little more, say that slot format no longer used and motherboard manufacturers and microprocessor have opted (again) by socket. But look carefully each of the connectors have been developed in recent years.
