1. Personal Computer: A Personal Computer can be defined as a small, relatively inexpensive computer designed for an
individual user. Personal Computers are based on the microprocessor technology that enables manufacturers to put an entire
CPU on one chip. Businesses use personal computers for word processing, accounting, desktop publishing, and for running
spreadsheet and database management applications. At home, the most popular use for personal computers is playing games
and surfing the Internet.
2. Mini Computer: Mini Computer is a midsize multi-processing system capable of supporting up to 250 users
simultaneously. These were designed for specific tasks but have now lost popularity due to the advent of PCs. Some of the
Popular Minicomputers are given below:
IBM Midrange computers
Texas Instrument TI-990
3. Mainframes: Mainframe is very large in size and is an expensive computer capable of supporting hundreds or even
thousands of users simultaneously. Mainframe executes many programs concurrently and supports many simultaneous
executions of programs.
A supercomputer is a computer with great speed and memory. This kind of computer can do jobs faster than any other
computer of its generation. They are usually thousands of times faster than ordinary personal computers made at that time.
The first Atlas was officially commissioned on 7 December 1962, nearly three years after the Cray CDC6600
Supercomputer was introduced, as one of the world's first supercomputers. Seymour Cray is called as father of super
computer.

Computer memory is the storage space in computer where data is to be processed and instructions required for processing are
stored.
Primary Memory (Main Memory)-Primary memory holds only those data and instructions on which computer is currently
working. It has limited capacity and data is lost when power is switched off. It is generally made up of semiconductor device.
These memories are not as fast as registers. The data and instruction required to be processed reside in main memory. It is
divided into two subcategories RAM and ROM.
Secondary Memory(Auxiliary Memory)- This type of memory is also known as external memory or non-volatile. It is
slower than main memory. These are used for storing data/Information permanently. CPU directly does not access these
memories instead they are accessed via input-output routines. Contents of secondary memories are first transferred to main
memory, and then CPU can access it. For example: disk, CD-ROM, DVD etc.
Characteristics of Main Memory Characteristic of Secondary Memory
These are semiconductor memories. It is also These are magnetic and optical memories It is known as backup
known as main memory. memory.
Usually volatile memory. It is non-volatile memory.
Data is lost in case power is switched off. Data is permanently stored even if power is switched off.
It is working memory of the computer. It is used for storage of data in a computer.
Faster than secondary memories. Computer may run without secondary memory. Slower than
primary memories.
RAM (Random Access Memory) is the internal memory of the CPU for storing
data, program, and program result. It is a read/write memory which stores data
until the machine is working. As soon as the machine is switched off, data is
erased. RAM is volatile, i.e. data stored in it is lost when we switch off the
computer or if there is a power failure. Hence, a backup Uninterruptible Power
System (UPS) is often used with computers.
RAM is of two types-:
1. Static RAM (SRAM) 2. Dynamic RAM
(DRAM)
Static RAM (SRAM) : The word static indicates that the memory retains its contents as long as power is being supplied.
However, data is lost when the power gets down due to volatile nature. SRAM chips use a matrix of 6-transistors and no
capacitors. Transistors do not require power to prevent leakage, so SRAM need not be refreshed on a regular basis. There is
extra space in the matrix, hence SRAM uses more chips than DRAM for the same amount of storage space, making the
manufacturing costs higher. SRAM is thus used as cache memory and has very fast access.
Dynamic RAM (DRAM) : DRAM, unlike SRAM, must be continually refreshed in order to maintain the data. This is done
by placing the memory on a refresh circuit that rewrites the data several hundred times per second. DRAM is used for most
system memory as it is cheap and small. All DRAMs are made up of memory cells, which are composed of one capacitor and
one transistor.
Cache Memory : Cache memory is a very high speed semiconductor memory which can speed up the CPU. It acts as a
buffer between the CPU and the main memory. It is used to hold those parts of data and program which are most frequently
used by the CPU. The parts of data and programs are transferred from the disk to cache memory by the operating system,
from where the CPU can access them.
ROM (Read Only Memory): ROM stands for Read Only Memory. The memory from which we can only read but cannot
write on it. This type of memory is non-volatile. The information is stored permanently in such memories during
manufacture. A ROM stores such instructions that are required to start a computer. This operation is referred to as bootstrap.
ROM chips are not only used in the computer but also in other electronic items like washing machine and microwave oven.
MROM (Masked ROM): The very first ROMs were hard-wired devices that contained a pre-programmed set of data or
instructions. These kind of ROMs are known as masked ROMs, which are inexpensive.
PROM (Programmable Read Only Memory) : PROM is read-only memory that can be modified only once by a user. The user
buys a blank PROM and enters the desired contents using a PROM program. Inside the PROM chip, there are small fuses
which are burnt open during programming. It can be programmed only once and is not erasable.
EPROM (Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory) : EPROM can be erased by exposing it to ultra-violet light for a
duration of up to 40 minutes. Usually, an EPROM eraser achieves this function. During programming, an electrical charge
is trapped in an insulated gate region. The charge is retained for more than 10 years because the charge has no leakage path.
For erasing this charge, ultra-violet light is passed through a quartz crystal window (lid). This exposure to ultra-violet light
dissipates the charge. During normal use, the quartz lid is sealed with a sticker.
EEPROM (Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory) : EEPROM is programmed and erased electrically. It can
be erased and reprogrammed about ten thousand times. Both erasing and programming take about 4 to 10 ms (millisecond).
In EEPROM, any location can be selectively erased and programmed. EEPROMs can be erased one byte at a time, rather
than erasing the entire chip. Hence, the process of reprogramming is flexible but slow.
Virtual memory- : Virtual memory is a memory management technique for letting processes execute outside of memory.
This is very useful especially is an executing program cannot fit in the physical memory.
An Operating System, or OS, is a software program that enables the computer hardware to communicate and operate with
the computer software. Without a computer Operating System, a computer would be useless.
COMPUTER LANGUAGES: A language is the main medium of communicating between the Computer systems and the
most common are the programming languages. As we know a Computer only understands binary numbers that is 0 and 1 to
perform various operations but the languages are developed for different types of work on a Computer. A language consists
of all the instructions to make a request to the system for processing a task.
Low Level Language:
Low level languages are the machine codes in which the instructions are given in machine language in the form of 0 and 1 to
a Computer system. It is mainly designed to operate and handle all the hardware and instructions set architecture of a
Computer. Low level language is also divided into two parts are Machine language and Assembly language.
High Level Language:
The high level languages are the most used and also more considered programming languages that helps a programmer to
read, write and maintain. It is also the third generation language that is used and also running till now by many programmers.
They are less independent to a particular type of Computer and also require a translator that can convert the high level
language to machine language. The translator may be an interpreter and Compiler that helps to convert into binary code for a
Computer to understand.
GENERATION LANGUAGES:
1st - Machine and Assembly language
2nd - Assembly language and high level languages (FORTRAN , COBOL)
3rd - High level languages (FORTRAN II - IV , COBOL , PASCAL , BASIC, ALGOL68)
4th - High level languages(FORTAN 77 , PASCAL , COBOL)
5th - High level languages(C , C++ ,JAVA , .NET)
LANGUAGE TRANSLATOR:
Compiler : It's a computer program(s) that transforms source code written in a programming language
into machine language that is the target language which usually has a binary form known as object code.
Interpreter : It translates high level instructions into an intermediate form, it translates the code into the intermediate form
line by line an caries out specific actions.
Assembler : It is a program that takes basic computer instruction(s) and converts then into a pattern of bits that the
computer's processor can use to perform it's basic operations. The language used to program the assembler is called assembly
language.
A computer network is a system in which multiple computers are connected to each other to share information and
resources.
Characteristics of a Network:
A network is a group of systems that are connected to allow sharing of resources—such as files or printers—or sharing of
services-such as an Internet connection .There are two aspects of setting up a network: the hardware used to connect the
systems together and the software installed on the computers to allow them to communicate.
Source- Data to be transmitted is generated by this device, example: telephones, personal computers etc.
Transmitter- The data generated by the source system are not directly transmitted in the form they are generated.
The transmitter transforms and encodes the information in such a form to produce electromagnetic waves or signals.
Transmission System- A transmission system can be a single transmission line or a complex network connecting
source and destination.
Receiver- Receiver accepts the signal from the transmission system and converts it to a form which is easily
managed by the destination device.
Destination-Destination receives the incoming data from the receiver.
Network Topology:
Topology is the geometric arrangement of a computer system. Each computer system in a topology is known as a node.
Network topology is determined only by the configuration of connections between nodes.
Bus Topology: A bus topology is such that there is a single line to which all nodes are connected and the nodes
connect only to this bus.
The server is a special computer that contains more disk space and memory than are found on client workstations. The server
has special software installed that allows it to function as a server. This special software can provide file and print services (to
allow sharing of files and printers), provide web pages to clients, or provide e-mail functionality to the company.
Workstations -The workstation also is known as a client, which is just a basic computer running a client operating system
such as Windows XP or Linux. These users typically store their files on a central server so that they can share the files with
other users on the network.
Hosts-The term host refers to any computer or device that is connected to a network and sends or receives information on
that network. A host can be a server, a workstation, a printer with its own network card, or a device such as a router. We can
summarize by saying that any system or device that is connected to the network is known as a host.
Types of Networks-Organizations of different sizes, structures, and budgets need different types of networks. Networks can
be divided into one of two categories: peer-to-peer or server-based networks.
1. Peer-to-Peer Network
2. Server-Based Networks
Peer-to-Peer Network
A peer-to-peer network has no dedicated servers instead; a number of workstations are connected together for the purpose of
sharing information or devices. When there is no dedicated server, all workstations are considered equal; any one of them can
participate as the client or the server. Peer-to-peer networks are designed to satisfy the networking needs of home networks or
of small companies that do not want to spend a lot of money on a dedicated server but still want to have the Capability to
share information or devices. For example, A small peer-to-peer network will allow these three computers to share the printer
and the customer information with one another .The extra cost of a server was not incurred because the existing client
systems were networked together to create the peer-to-peer network. A big disadvantage of peer-to-peer networking is that
you can‘t do your day-today administration in a single place.
Server-Based Networks
Usually after four or five systems have been networked, the need for a dedicated server to store all of the user accounts and
data files becomes apparent—this is a server-based network. The advantage of a server-based network is that the data files
that will be used by all of the users are stored on the one server. This will help you by giving you a central point to set up
permissions on the data files, and it will give you a central point from which to back up all of the data in case data loss should
occur. With a server-based network, the network server stores a list of users who may use network resources and usually
holds the resources as well. The server in a server-based network may provide a number of different services. The services it
will offer to the network usually are decided by the server‘s role. There are a number of different roles that a server could
play on a network:
1. File and print Servers 2.Application servers 3.Web servers 4.Directory servers
1. File and print servers-
File and print servers control and share printers and files among clients on the network. File and print servers were the
original reason to have a network; a large number of users needed access to the same files, so the files were placed on a
server, and all clients were connected to the server when they needed to work with the files.
2. Application servers-
Application servers are servers that run some form of special program on the server. A good example of an application server
is a server that runs the company‘s e-mail server. The e-mail server software is special software that can be run on a server
operating system. Another example of software that would run on an application server is a database server product such as
Microsoft SQL Server. A database server is a server that holds the company‘s core business data and typically gives this data
to custom applications that run on the workstations. These are some applications that you might find on an application server:
1. Microsoft SQL Server 2.Oracle 3.Microsoft Exchange Server 4.IBM Lotus Domino
3. Web servers-
Web servers are servers that run the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and are
designed to publish information on the Internet or the corporate intranet. Web
servers are popular in today‘s businesses because they host web applications (web
sites) for the organization. These web applications could be designed for internal
use, or they could be used to publish information to the rest of the world on the
Internet. Examples of web server software are Microsoft‘s Internet Information
Services that runs on Windows or Apache web server software that runs on
UNIX/Linux, Novell NetWare, and Windows.
4. Directory servers-
Directory servers hold a list of the user accounts that are allowed to log on to the network. This list of user accounts is stored
in a database (known as the directory database) and can store information about these user accounts such as address, city,
phone number, and fax number. A directory service is designed to be a central database that can be used to store everything
about such objects as users and printers.
Network Media and Connectors-:
Cabling is the medium for the transmission of data between hosts on the LANs. LANs can be connected together using a
variety of cable types, such as unshielded twisted-pair, coax, or fiber. Each cable type has its own advantages and
disadvantages, which you will examine in this section. There are three primary types of cable media that can be used to
connect systems to a network—coaxial cable, twisted-pair cable, and fiber-optic cable. Transmission rates that can be
supported on each of these physical media are measured in millions of bits per second, or megabits per second (Mbps).
Coaxial Cable-:
Coaxial, or coax, cable looks like the
cable used to bring the cable TV signal
to your television. One strand (a solid-
core copper wire) runs down the middle
of the cable. There are two types of coax
cabling: thinnet and thicknet. The two
differ in thickness and maximum cable
distance that the signal can travel.
Twisted-Pair Cable-:
Coaxial cable is not as popular today as
it was a few years ago; today the
popularity contest has been dominated
by twisted-pair cabling. Twisted-pair
cabling gets its name by having four pairs of wires that are twisted to help reduce crosstalk or interference from outside
electrical devices. (Crosstalk is interference from adjacent wires.) there are two forms of twisted-pair cabling—unshielded
twisted-pair (UTP) and shielded twisted-pair (STP).
Fiber-Optic Cable-:
The third type of cabling that we want to discuss is fiber-optic cabling. Fiber-optic cabling is unlike coax and twisted-pair,
because both of those types have a copper wire that carries the electrical signal. Fiber-optic cables use optical fibers that carry
digital data signals in the form of modulated pulses of light. An optical fiber consists of an extremely thin cylinder of glass,
called the core, surrounded by a concentric layer of glass, known as the cladding. There are two fibers per cable-one to
transmit and one to receive. The core also can be an optical-quality clear plastic, and the cladding can be made up of gel that
reflects signals back into the fiber to reduce signal loss. There are two types of fiber-optic cables: single-mode fiber (SMF)
and multimode fiber (MMF).
1. Single-mode fiber Uses a single ray of light, known as a mode, to carry the transmission over long distances.
2. Multimode fiber Uses multiple rays of light (modes) simultaneously, with each ray of light running at a different
reflection angle to carry the transmission over short distances
Network devices are components used to connect computers or other electronic devices together so that they can share files
or resources like printers or fax machines. Devices used to setup a Local Area Network (LAN) are the most common types of
network devices used by the public. A LAN requires a hub, router, cabling or radio technology, network cards, and if
online access is desired, a high-speed modem. This is much less complicated than it might sound to someone new to
networking.
Hub- Broadcasts data from one port to all other ports in the network.
Repeater- Regenerates the input data which is subjected to attenuation.
Switch- Intelligent device which sends data to particular port.
Bridge-Same function as switch but much more primitive and has lesser
ports.
Router-Connects all computers from a LAN to internet using same IP.
IEEE 802.11- Wi-Fi standard- 802.11 b has speed of 11 Mbps, 802.11 g
has a speed of 54 Mbps and 802.11 N uses multiple wireless signals and
antennas and has speeds of over 100Mbps.
Gateway-Needed when 2 different network technologies are being used.
Acts as translator.
Connecting Cables- RJ-11(Telephone Cable), RJ 45 (LAN Cable),
Twisted pair cables (used in connecting 2 computers), Null Modem Cable (RS232) , Optical Fiber Cable(Gigabit
Ethernet).
ARPANET- Advanced Research Projects Agency Network, ARPANET or Arpanet began development in 1966 by the
United States ARPA. ARPANET was a Wide Area Network linking many Universities and research centers, was first to use
packet switching, and was the beginning of what we consider the Internet today. Some of the reasons for creating ARPANET
include making it easier for people to access computers, to improve computer equipment, and to have a more effective
communication method for the military.
OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) is reference model for how messages should be transmitted between any two points in a
telecommunication network. A reference model is a framework for understanding relationships. The purpose of the OSI
reference model is to guide vendors and developers so that the digital communication products and software programs they
create will interoperate. The OSI reference model defines seven layers of functions that take place at each end of a
communication.
Layers of OSI -
Layer 7: The application layer - This is the layer at which communication partners are identified, quality of service (QoS) is
identified, user authentication and privacy are considered, and any constraints on data syntax are identified. (This layer is not
the application itself, although some applications may perform application layer functions.)
Layer 6: The presentation layer - This is a layer, usually part of an operating system (OS), that converts incoming and
outgoing data from one presentation format to another (for example, from a text stream into a popup window with the newly-
arrived text).
Layer 5: The session layer - This layer sets up, coordinates, and terminates conversations, exchanges, and dialogs between
the applications at each end. It deals with session and connection coordination.
Layer 4: The transport layer - This layer manages the end-to-end control (for example, determining whether all packets have
arrived) and error-checking. It ensures complete data transfer.
Layer 3: The network layer - This layer handles the routing of the data (sending it in the right direction to the right
destination on outgoing transmissions and receiving incoming transmissions at the packet level). The network layer does
routing and forwarding.
Layer 2: The data-link layer - This layer provides synchronization for the physical level and does bit-stuffing for strings of
1's in excess of 5. It furnishes transmission protocol knowledge and management. This layer has two sub layers, the Logical
Link Control Layer and the Media Access Control Layer.
Layer 1: The physical layer - This layer conveys the bit stream through the network at the electrical and mechanical level. It
provides the hardware means of sending and receiving data on a carrier network.
Every machine on a network has a unique identifier. Most networks today, including all computers on the Internet, use the
TCP/IP protocol as the standard for how to communicate on the network. In the TCP/IP protocol, the unique identifier for a
computer is called its IP address.
There are two standards for IP addresses:-
1) IP Version 4 (IPv4) 2) IP Version 6 (IPv6).
All computers with IP addresses have an IPv4 address, and many are starting to use the new IPv6 address system as well.
Here's what these two address types mean:-
IPv4 uses 32 binary bits to create a single unique address on the network. An IPv4 address is expressed by four numbers
separated by dots. Each number is the decimal (base-10) representation for an eight-digit binary (base-2) number, also called
an octet. For example: 216.27.61.137.
Class A - 0.0.0.0 - 127.255.255.255 Class B - 128.0.0.0 - 191.255.255.255
Class C - 192.0.0.0 - 223.255.255.255 Class D - 224.0.0.0 - 239.255.255.255
Class E - 240.0.0.0 - 247.255.255.255
IPv6 uses 128 binary bits to create a single unique address on the network. An IPv6 address is expressed by eight groups of
hexadecimal (base-16) numbers separated by colons, as in 2001:cdba:0000:0000:0000:0000:3257:9652 Groups of numbers
that contain all zeros are often omitted to save space, leaving a colon separator to mark the gap (as in 2001:cdba::3257:9652).
IPv4 IPv6
No. of bits on IP Address 32 128
Format decimal hexadecimal
Capable of Addresses 4.3 billion infinite number
MAC address -: The address for a device as it is identified at the Media Access Control (MAC) layer in the network
architecture. MAC address is usually stored in ROM on the network adapter card and is unique.
Bandwidth -: Every line has an upper limit and a lower limit on the frequency of signals it can carry. This limited range
is called the bandwidth.
Bookmark - When referring to the Internet or a browser, a bookmark or electronic bookmark is a method of saving a
web page's address. For example, with most browsers pressing Ctrl + D will bookmark the page you are viewing.
Bounce -A description of what occurs when an e-mail message returns back to the sender as undeliverablE. Some e-mail
programs also have a bounce or bounce back feature built into them, which allows the user to bounce messages back to
the sender causing the e-mail address to appear invalid.
Buffer-When referring to memory, a buffer is a temporary storage in memory that stores information while processing
other information.
Cloud computing -A term used to describe services over a network by a collection of servers. These computers or cloud
of computers enable the users visiting to have access to much faster computers or servers, be able to access programs and
services from anywhere with Internet access often without having to install other software, and get access to the services
from any device capable of reaching the network or Internet
Cyber Law- Cyber law is the part of the overall legal system that deals with the Internet, cyberspace, and their
respective legal issues. Cyber law covers a fairly broad area, encompassing several subtopics including freedom of
expression, access to and usage of the Internet, and online privacy. Generically, cyber law has been referred to as the
Law of the Internet.
DNS-: Domain Name System or Domain Name Service, a DNS is an Internet or other network server that helps to
point domain names or the hostname to their associated IP address that was introduced by Paul Mockapetris and Jon
Postel in1984. If a domain name is not found within the local database, the server may query other domain servers to
obtain the address of a domain name. For example, when a user is accessing the Computer Hope domain a user would
enter the easy to remember domain: computerhopE.com. When entered that domain name is looked up on a Domain
Name System to translate that name into an IP address that can be better understood by computer, E.g. 69.72.169.241.
Using that IP address the computers can then find the computer containing the Computer Hope web page and forward
that information to your computer.
E-learning- : E-learning Stands for electronic learning, E-learning (or eLearning) is a term used to describe the
process of acquiring knowledge via the use of a computer and the Internet, intranet, or extranet, using various types of
media. The multimedia may include streaming video, audio recordings, videoconferencing using a webcam, and even
virtual worlds, such as Second Life. It is commonly self-paced but can be led by an instructor as well.
Phishing-: Pronounced like fishing, phishing is a term used to describe a malicious individual or group of individuals
scamming users by sending e-mails or creating web pages that are designed to collect an individual's online bank,
credit card, or other login information. Because these e-mails and web pages look like legitimate companies users trust
them and enter their personal information.
Pop-up-: Term used to describe a Window that appears on top of all other Windows. This term became a well-known
term with the advent of intrusive and non-intrusive Internet pop-up ads. These ads became increasingly annoying as
this form of advertising started to become more popular with many web pages.
Search engine-: A search engine is a software program or script available through the Internet that searches
documents and files for keywords and returns the results of any files containing those keywords. Today, there are
thousands of different search engines available on the Internet, each with their own abilities and features. The first
search engine ever developed is considered Archie, which was used to search for FTP files and the first text-based
search engine is considered Veronica. Today, the most popular and well known search engine is Google.
Server side scripting-: Server-side scripting is a method of designing Websites so that the process or user request is
run on the originating server. These scripts provide an interface to the user and are used to limit access to proprietary
data. These scripts also work with reusability and allow the webmaster to control access to the source code of the
script to limit any attempts at reverse engineering; additionally some of the coding used in these scripts may even be
valuable or proprietary.
ASP- : Active Server Pages, an ASP page is a dynamically created web page that commonly ends with a .ASP
extension that utilizes ActiveX scripting, usually VBScript or JScript code. The .aspx extension is used for Web pages
that use Microsoft's ASP.NET. These pages are called "Web Forms", and can contain (X)HTML code as well as
ASP.NET code.
Web page-: A web page or webpage is a document commonly written in Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) that
is accessible through the Internet or other network using a browser. A web page is accessed by entering a URL
addresses and may contain text, graphics, and hyperlinks to other web pages and files.
WWW-: Short for World Wide Web, WWW sometimes also abbreviated as W3 or Web is a graphical interface for
the Internet that was first introduced to the public on August 6, 1991 by Tim Berners-Lee. The World Wide Web
consists of billions of pages linked to each other that contain text, graphics, multimedia files, and other interactive
software. Unlike other services available through the Internet, the World Wide Web provides a rich medium and helps
brings all people together. The first web site was built at CERN by Tim Berners-Lee and put online August 6, 1991.
Firewall-: A firewall is a software utility or hardware device that limits outside network access to a computer or local
network by blocking or restricting network ports. Firewalls are a great step for helping prevent un-authorized access to
a company or home network. The picture is an example of a hardware firewall, the ZyXEL ZyWALL a Unified
Security Gateway with a Firewall and other security features. In addition to hardware firewalls like that shown above,
basic hardware firewalls are also commonly
found in most network routers and can be
configured and setup through the router setup.
Software firewalls are designed to protect the
computer they are installed onto by blocking
any unrestricted programs from sending and
receiving information from the network or
Internet. A good example of a software
Firewall is the Windows Firewall that is
Number systems are the technique to represent numbers in the computer system architecture, every value that you are saving
or getting into/from computer memory has a defined number system. Computer architecture supports following number
systems.

III-tier Architecture -:
Three levels of data abstraction (III-tier Architecture)-:
They are three levels of abstraction are given below,
1. Physical level: The lowest level of abstraction
describes how data are stored. (How to store the
data?)
2. Logical level: The next higher level of abstraction,
describes what data are stored in database and what
relationship among those data. (What type of data to
be stored?)
3. View level: The highest level of abstraction describes
only part of entire database. (How to show the data?)
1) Naive users: These are the unsophisticated users who interact with the system by invoking one of the application
programs that have been written previously. E.g. consider a user who checks for account balance information over the
World Wide Web. Such a user access a form, enters the account number and password etc. And the application
program on the internet then retrieves the account balance using given account information which is passed to the user.
2) Application programmers-: These are computer professionals who write application programs, used to develop
user interfaces. The application programmer uses Rapid Application Development (RAD) toolkit or special type of
programming languages which include special features to facilitate generation of forms and display of date on screen.
3) Sophisticated users: These users interact with the database using database query language. They submit their query
to the query processor. Then Data Manipulation Language (DML) functions are performed on the database to retrieve
the data. Tools used by these users are OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) and data mining tools.
4) Specialized users-: These users write specialized database applications to retrieve data. These applications can be
used to retrieve data with complex data types e.g. graphics data and audio data.
b) Database Administrator (DBA): A person having who has central control over data and programs that access the
data is called DBA. DBA functions are given below:
5. Routine maintenance: DBA has to take periodic backups of the database, ensure that enough disk space is available
to store new data, ensure that performance of DBMS ix not degraded by any operation carried out by the users.
SQL-:
SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is used to communicate with a database. According to ANSI
(American National Standards Institute), it is the standard language for relational database management systems. SQL
statements are used to perform tasks such as update data on a database, or retrieve data from a database. Some common
relational database management systems that use SQL are: Oracle, Sybase, Microsoft SQL Server, Access, Ingres, etc.
Although most database systems use SQL, most of them also have their own additional proprietary extensions that are
usually only used on their system. However, the standard SQL commands such as "Select", "Insert", "Update", "Delete",
"Create", and "Drop" can be used to accomplish almost everything that one needs to do with a database. This tutorial will
provide you with the instruction on the basics of each of these commands as well as allow you to put them to practice using
the SQL Interpreter.
Relational Model-:
The most popular data model in DBMS
is the Relational Model. It is more scientific a model than
others. This model is based on first-order predicate logic
and defines a table as an n-array relation.
The main highlights of this model are −
1. Data is stored in tables called relations.
2. Relations can be normalized.
3. In normalized relations, values saved are atomic
values.
4. Each row in a relation contains a unique value.
5. Each column in a relation contains values from a
same domain.
Key-:
A key is an attribute (also known as column or field)
or a combination of attribute that is used to identify
records. Sometimes we might have to retrieve data from
more than one table, in those cases we require to join
tables with the help of keys. The purpose of the key is to
bind data together across tables without repeating all of the
data in every table. Such an attribute is called a key attribute, and its values can be used to identify each entity uniquely. For
example, the Name attribute is a key of the COMPANY entity type because no two companies are allowed to have the same
name. For the PERSON entity type, a typical key attribute is SocialSecurityNumber. Sometimes, several attributes together
form a key, meaning that the combination of the attribute values must be distinct for each entity. If a set of attributes
possesses this property, we can define a composite attribute that becomes a key attribute of the entity type. The various types
of key with e.g. in SQL are mentioned below, (For examples let suppose we have an Employee Table with attributes ‗ID‘ ,
‗Name‘ ,‘Address‘ , ‗Department_ID‘ ,‘Salary‘)
(I) Super Key –:
An attribute or a combination of attribute that is used to identify the records uniquely is known as Super
Key. A table can have many Super Keys.
E.g. of Super Key
1 ID 2 ID, Name
3 ID, Address 4 ID, Department_ID
5 ID, Salary 6 Names, Address
7 Names, Address, Department_ID ………… So on as any combination which can identify the records uniquely will be a
Super Key.
(II) Candidate Key –:
It can be defined as minimal Super
Key or irreducible Super Key. In other words an attribute or
a combination of attribute that identifies the record uniquely
but none of its proper subsets can identify the records
uniquely.
E.g. of Candidate Key
1 Code 2 Names, Address
For above table we have only two Candidate Keys (i.e.
Irreducible Super Key) used to identify the records from the
table uniquely. Code Key can identify the record uniquely
and similarly combination of Name and Address can
identify the record uniquely, but neither Name nor Address
can be used to identify the records uniquely as it might be
possible that we have two employees with similar name or
two employees from the same house.
(III) Primary Key-:
A Candidate Key that is used by the
database designer for unique identification of each row in a
table is known as Primary Key. A Primary Key can consist
of one or more attributes of a table. E.g. of Primary Key -
Database designer can use one of the Candidate Key as a
Primary Key. In this case we have ―Code‖ and ―Name,
Address‖ as Candidate Key, we will consider ―Code‖ Key
as a Primary Key as the other key is the combination of
more than one attribute.
(IV) Foreign Key –:
A foreign key is an attribute or
combination of attribute in one base table that points to the
candidate key (generally it is the primary key) of another
table. The purpose of the foreign key is to ensure referential
integrity of the data i.e. only values that are supposed to
appear in the database are permitted.
E.g. of Foreign Key – Let consider we have another table
i.e. Department Table with Attributes ―Department_ID‖,
―Department_Name‖, ―Manager_ID‖, ‖Location_ID‖ with
Department_ID as an Primary Key. Now the
Department_ID attribute of Employee Table (dependent or
child table) can be defined as the Foreign Key as it can
reference to the Department_ID attribute of the
Departments table (the referenced or parent table), a
Foreign Key value must match an existing value in the
parent table or be NULL.
