As computer system have evolved, there has been a
pattern of increasing complexity and sophistication of individual
components --
- The computer technology allows to create three
dimensional virtual environment which consists hardware and
software.
- The computer system has evolved in powerful and
visually oriented, interactive, graphical display system and
techniques.
- Nowadays demand for software performance promote
advancements and innovation of hardware technologies.
- For the management of data and analysis system, hardware
determine performance limit of data access and query
processing.
- The software should optimize design of algorithms and data
structure according to hardware.
- The recent data intensive application have high demands
on hardware performance of the computer like- energy consumption,
cost performance, access latency, bandwidth etc.
- the traditional data management tecchnique is facing different
kind of challenges ad these challenges leads in contradiction in
existing data processing infrastructure.
Compare and contrast the evolution of the input
functions of the computer system and the output functions of the
computer system in modern computers --
- Input -- The digital computer system have four
fundamental elements -- Input Output equipment, Main
memory, Control unit and arithmetic logic unit.The input device is
very important because it allows to communicate with computer and
add new information
- The input devices are -- keyboard, mouse, joysticks,
light pen, graphic tablet, touch screen, micro phone, scanner,
MISR, OCR and webcam.
- Input is collection of text, images,numbers, audio and
video that is entered in the memory of computer
system.
- The input stages can be preparation of source document,
data verification, data coding, data sorting and data
storage.
- Output -- In output, the data which is
prccessed, is displayed on the screen of the monitor as a soft
copy. and it can be printed by using printers on hard copy.
- The output devices that conveys video and text graphic
information on screen as soft copy.
- The output devices includes -- display screen,
printers, synthesizers and plotters.
- And the data that is proccessed can be viewed on display
screens like - LCD monitors, CRT monitors, gas plasma
monitor and projectors.
