 BODY OF THE REPORT

WHAT IS COMPUTER?

Computer is an electronic or electromechanical gadget that accept data in a prescribed format

process the data through a laid out instruction and gives out result as information.

SPECIFIC TERMS:

ELECTRONIC DEVICE: it depends solely on electricity supply (IC’s diodes, capacitor,

resistor etc)

 ELECTROMECHANICAL: It can work provided that there is no electricity supply

using battery, UPS
 DATA: unprocessed facts that needed to be processed into meaningful information such
as alphabet, numeric, alphanumeric.
 PROCESS: This is extra work done by a device on a certain data
 INFORMATION: This is the end result

TYPE OF COMPUTER SYSTEM

There are three (3) different types of computers according to the principles of operations.

Those three types of computer are:

1. Analog Computer

2. Digital Computer

3. Hybrid Computers

ANALOG COMPUTER:

Analog computer is a computing device that works on continuous range of values. The
results given by analog computers will only be approximate since they deal with quantities that
vary continuously. It generally deals with physical variables such as voltage, pressure,
temperature, speed e.t.c

DIGITAL COMPUTERS:

On the other hand, a digital computer operates on digital data such as numbers. It uses
binary number system in which there are only two digits 0 and 1. Each one is called a bit.

The digital computer is designed using digital circuits in which there are two levels for an input
or output signal. These two levels are known as logic 0 and logic 1. Digital computers can give
more accurate and faster results.

HYBRID COMPUTERS:

A hybrid computer combines the desirable features of analog and digital computers. It is
mostly used for automatic operations of complicated physical processes and machines. Now-a-
days analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters are used for transforming the data into
suitable form for either type of computation.

WHAT IS COMPUTER HARDWARE?

Computer Hardware is the physical part of a computer, as distinguished from the computer
software that executes or runs on the hardware. The hardware of a computer is infrequently
changed, while software and data are modified frequently. The term soft refers to readily created,
modified, or erased. These are unlike the physical components within the computer, which are
hard.

TYPES OF COMPUTER HARDWARE

1. Monitor 2. Motherboard 3. C.P.U(Microprocessor) 4. Main memory (RAM)

5. Expansion cards 6. Power supply unit 7. Optical disc drive 8. Hard disk drive (HDD)

9. Keyboard 10. Mouse

WHAT IS SYSTEM SOFTWARE?

System software is a type of computer program that is design to run a computer’s

hardware and application program, if we think of the computer system as a layered model, the
system software is the interface between the hardware and user applications. The operating
system (OS) is the best-known example of system software. The OS manages all the other
programs in a computer.

WHAT IS AN APPLICATION PACKAGES?

Application Packages is a business term that is use to describe any bundle of two or more
computer program that help in addressing specific business need. It is specifically design to suit
user need. Examples of such programs are “bespoke” used in banks, for their day-to-day
activities, “retail software” used at retail outlet and some pharmacies

APPLICATION SOFTWARE CAN BE GET THROUGH

1. PURCHASE: Software can be purchased in a retail shop. It can be ordered from the
company directly. Also, software can be purchased online from the seller websites and
downloaded on the storage space of the user’s computer. Many software are stored in
storage devices like floppy disk, CD, DVD, flash drive, with their manuals or installation
guides.

2. FREE SOFTWARE: There are many softwares or applications on the internet for
different purposes. They are free to use by users. These applications are downloaded
from the internet. Some directories mandate users to register with them before they
download those applications. The risk being posed by applications on the internet is the
susceptibility to virus and malicious activities.

 RECOMMENDATION AND SUGGESTION

With all the experience obtain at the four month training. I will like to use this medium to
recommend that government should improve the programme of SIWES in Nigeria and enhance
the supervision of student during the programme in various institution in Nigeria.

SIWES programme is an excellent programme that helps the student to cover in their area of
specification through practical.

My suggestion is that the college Director should find out about the organization where students
want to do their SIWES before placing them there, because I did my SIWES in a place where
they did not meet up to my expectation.
