Information is data that has been processed into a form that is meaningful to the recipient (USER) and is of real or perceived value in current or prospective actions or decisions. Lecture-3 Systems Concepts: 1. What are systems? • a. input-process-output an orderly arrangement of interdependent ideas or constructs (ABSTRACT SYSTEM) • b. a set of elements

and 1 to represent all forms of information internally in digital form. Every computer has a set of instructions that define the basic functions it can perform. Sequences of these instructions. Component of Digital Computer: (1)CPU: The Central Processing Unit (CPU) or the processor is the portion of a computer system that carries out the instructions of a Computer, and is the primary element carrying out the computer's functions. This term has been in use in the computer industry at least since

CHAPTER 2 * Overview of Business Processes SUGGESTED ANSWERS TO DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 2.1 Table 2-1 lists some of the documents used in the revenue, expenditure, and human resources cycle. What kinds of input or output documents or forms would you find in the production (or conversion) cycle? Students will not know the names of the documents but they should be able to identify the tasks about which information needs to be gathered. Here are some of those tasks:

programming for the computer to execute. Prior to this hardware had to be changed in order to execute specific tasks. This was cumbersome and time consuming. When he designed his computer model in the 1940’s von Neumann had two main components: a Central Processing Unit or the CPU and memory. The CPU during those times was broken down into two distinct units, the Control Unit and the Arithmetic Unit. Each component had its own purpose, the Control Unit reads and interpret the programming codes and converts

the relay selected. 8. The input contacts in a relay logic diagram represent actual components and contacts present in the control system, while the input instructions in the PLC ladder logiconly represent data values stored in the PLC. 10. The processor is the central processing unit (CPU) that handles all logical operations and performs all the mathematical computations. The power supply provides power to the processor and to the modules plugged into the rack. The input interface provides the link

devices appear to the CPU as though they were memory devices. To output data to the outside world the CPU simply stores data into a "memory" location and the data magically appears on some connectors external to the computer. Similarly, to input data from some external device, the CPU simply transfers data from a "memory" location into the CPU; this "memory" location holds the value found on the pins of some external connector. An output port is a device that looks like a memory cell to the computer
