Computer Fundamentals and Applications
Across
- 6. the information part of an information system
- 8. one of the third-fourth generation computers which was introduced by IBM for home and office use
- 11. a mutinational technology company that introduced Macintosh computer with its icon driven interface in 1984
- 14. an organized system for the collection, organization, storage and communication of information
- 15. a system which allowes a device to run many different applications at one time with a central program that monitores the memory
- 16. used by first computer systems for circuitry and magnetic drums for memory
- 19. allow computers to become smaller, faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient and more reliable than their first-generation predecessors
- 20. it gathers, organizes and manipulates data and carries out instructions
- 22. machine language which allowes programmers to specify instructions in words
- 23. a device that can be instructed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logicaloperations automatically
- 24. the most obvious part of a computer-based information system including servers, routers, monitors, printers and storage devices
- 25. the first general-purpose digital computer developed in 1946
Down
- 1. a small electronic device made out of a semiconductor material
- 2. the rules, descriptions and instructions for how things are done in computer-based information systems
- 3. a system where fifth-generation computers are based on which can develop devices in responding to natural language
- 4. the most important part of a computer-based information system who design and operate the software, input the data, build the hardware and keep it running
- 5. the lowest-level programming language understood by computers to perform operations
- 7. one of the most important element of computer-based information system that involves more than one piece of hardware to connect and function
- 9. an electronic computer which was built for the military in 1943
- 10. siliconchips where miniaturized transistors were placed on
- 12. brought thousands of integrated circuits were built onto a single silicon chip
- 13. the english mathematics professor who designed the Analytical Engine where the basic framework of the computers of today are based on
- 17. generation computing devices based on artificial intelligence
- 18. the first computer which was built for commercial use in 1951
- 21. generation of computer which hallmark was the development of integrated circuit
