Research for applications

Where the following is implemented:

• Linked list - is a data structure consisting of a group of nodes which together represent a sequence.

• Queue - is a particular kind of abstract data type or collection in which the entities in the collection are kept in order and the principal (or only) operations on the collection are the addition of entities to the rear terminal position and removal of entities from the front terminal position.

• Stack - is a last in, first out abstract data type and linear data structure.                                            
• Array - is a data structure consisting of a collection of elements, each identified by at least one index.

Reflections in Prelim Topics

It seems for me that our topics are hard, because I came in late in our class. Just last week that I came in our class because of a problem about my papers in school. Then next week is our exam, I will do my best to catch up in our lessons and learn more about our topics.

Differentiate

Mac OS vs Windows vs UNIX

Comparisons between the Windows and Linux computer operating systems are a long-running discussion topic within the personal computer industry. Windows has retained an extremely large retail sales majority among operating systems for personal desktop use, while Linux has sustained its status as the most prominent Free Software and Open Source operating system.

Research the ff. terms:

1. Booting- is a bootstrapping process that starts operating systems when the user turns on a computer system.

2. Graphical User Interface (GUI, sometimes pronounced gooey)- is a type of user interface that allows users to interact with electronic devices with images rather than text commands.

3. Linux- is a computer operating system which is based on free and open source software.

4. Mac OS- is a series of graphical user interface-based operating systems developed by Apple Inc.

5. MS-DOS- is an operating system for x86-based personal computers.

6. Multitasking- is a method where multiple tasks, also known as processes, share common processing resources such as a CPU.

7. NOS- the primary operating system for the Control Data Corporation Cyber line of mainframe computers.

8. Operating System (OS)- is software, consisting of programs and data, that runs on computers, manages computer hardware resources, and provides common services for execution of various application software.

9. System Software- is computer software designed to operate the computer hardware and to provide a platform for running application software.

10. Application Software- is computer software designed to help the user to perform specific tasks.

11. Unix (officially trademarked as UNIX, sometimes also written as Unix)- is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 by a group of AT&T employees at Bell Labs, including Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Brian Kernighan, Douglas McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna.

12. Utility Programs- a program that performs a specific task related to the management of computer functions, resources, or files, as password protection, memory management, virus protection, and file compression.

13. Windows- is a series of operating systems.

14. Microsoft Windows CE (now officially known as Windows Embedded Compact and previously also known as Windows Embedded CE , and sometimes abbreviated WinCE)- is an operating system developed by Microsoft for embedded systems.

15. Windows Mobile- is a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft that was used in smartphones and mobile devices, but by 2011 was rarely supplied on new phones.

EXER1

1.     Students use a search engine to find information about who invented the microprocessor.

Ted Hoff an engineer of Intel Corp., based in Santa Clara, Calif., with having fathered the microprocessor between 1969 and 1971.

2.     Students investigate the computer’s power management settings and create a report on what they discover.

The Dynamic power management is one of the most popular and successful low power design techniques in commercial integrated circuits, especially microprocessors.

3.     Create a list of components and features that the student should consider when purchasing a computer. They then explain why they made these selections.

They have 5 considerations in buying computer:
a. Hardware- This question will be answered in great detail. You will know how fast or slow the computer is.
b. Additional Features- We will also talk about additional hardware, like printers, scanners, digital cameras, modems and networks.
c. Software- We will also take some time to look at some software features and what's best to buy when you are just starting out.
d. Where to put the Comp.- The best spot to install your computer is the living room or family room. This way, if you have children, you can all share the computer.
It's important to chose a location that in not too humid, not in direct sunlight, away from heat vents, and away from electrical appliances that could cause interference.
e. Problem Support- The time that you would probably find that there was anything wrong with a computer from a hardware point of view is in the first month that you operate your computer.

4.     Students are  to prepare a report on solid-state storage and how it works.

Is a data storage device that uses solid-state memory to store persistent data with the intention of providing access in the same manner of a traditional block i/o hard disk drive.

5.     Students are to investigate teleconferencing technology.

Teleconferencing technology has provided businesses with an entirely new way of communicating over long distances. In fact, it helps business save money on travel expenses and has also helped business owners increase the productivity of their business by providing them with the ability to communicate via telecommunication methods.

6.     Students are to compare solid-state storage to magnetic and optical storage media. They are to express an opinion indicating whether they think solid-state storage will replace the other types of storage.

Optical media storage is an storage that using cd while the solid-state storage is more on saving data in the solid state memory.

Information technology

Information technology (IT) is the acquisition, processing, storage and dissemination of vocal, pictorial, textual and numerical information by a microelectronics-based combination of computing and telecommunications^. The term in its modern sense first appeared in a 1958 article published in the Harvard Business Review, in which authors Leavitt and Whisler commented that "the new technology does not yet have a single established name. We shall call it information technology (IT).

Matagal kong tinagong mahal kita. Ginawa ko ang lahat para sayo. Binigay ko na pati puso at kaluluwa ko pero hindi mo pa rin ako napansin. Ang masakit pa dun, nang naglakas loob akong sabihin sayong mahal kita, ang sinabi mo lang, "Ows? Talaga?"

Minsan ang sinasabi ng isip, iba sa nilalaman ng puso kaya pati damdamin, nalilito! Hindi malaman kung alin ang dapat sundin. Ang isip na nagsasabi ng dapat? O ang pusong nagmamahal ng tapat?
