System Unit

RAM
Random access memory is also known as RAM. It is a form of computer data storage. It takes the form of integrated circuits that allow stored data to be accessed in any order with a worst case performance of constant time.

Cache
Cache is a component that transparently keeps data so that if in the future the data is wanted, it can be served faster. The data that is stored within a cache might be values that have been computed earlier or duplicates of original values that are stored elsewhere. If the wanted data is containted in the cache (cache hit), this request can be served by reading the cache, which is more faster.

ROM

Read-only memory is also known as ROM is a category of storage medium used in computers and other electronic devices. The data in ROM cannot be changed or can be changed but in a very difficult way. Therefore, it is mainly used to distribute firmware. 

Flash Memory

Flash memory is a non-volatile computer storage chip that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. It is basically used in memory cards, USB, MP3 player and solid-state drives for general storage and transfer of data between computers and other digital products. 

Graphic Card

Graphics card is an expansion card whose affair is to accomplish output images to a display. Most video cards offer added functions, such as accelerated rendering of 3D scenes and 2D graphics, video capture, TV-tuner adapter, MPEG-2/MPEG-4 decoding, FireWire, light pen, TV output, or the ability to connect multiple monitors (multi-monitor).

Sound Card

Sound card is also known as audio card is an inside computer expansion card that furthers the input and output of audio signals to and from computer under control of computer programs. The word sound card is also related to external audio interfaces to generate sounds as opposed to using hardware inside the PC.

Network Interface Card

Network interface card is an abstract as NIC. It is an expansion board that inserts into a computer so that the computer can be connected to a network. Most NICs are build for a certain type of network, protocol, and media, although some can serve multiple networks.

Plug and Play

Plug and play is a term used to describe the characteristic of a computer bus, or device specification, which facilitates the discovery of a hardware component in a system, without the need for physical device configuration, or user intervention in resolving resource conflicts.

Universal Serial Bus(USB)

Universal serial bus(USB) is designed to authorize communication between devices and a host controller, which has effectively changed a variety of previous interfaces such as serial and parallel ports. USB was designed for personal computers, but it has become commonplace on other devices such as smartphones, PDAs and video game consoles, and as a power cord.

Serial Port

Serial port is a serial communication physical interface through which information transfer in or out one little at a time. Throughout most of the history of personal computers, data transfer through serial ports connected the computer to devices such as terminals and various peripherals.

Parallel Port 

Parallel port is for connecting an external device such as a printer. Parallel port is also a parallel communication physical interface. It is also known as a printer port. A newer type of parallel port, which supports the same connectors as the Centronics interface, is the EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) or ECP (Extended Capabilities Port).

FireWall Port

A firewall is a device that controls network traffic. Generally a firewall is configured to block certain inbound ports directed at your local network, but to allow most outbound traffic to travel to the Internet. Holes or conduits are opened through the firewall to allow access to systems on your local network like your web server.

Ethernet Port

Ethernet port is an opening on computer network equipment that Ethernet cable plug into. These ports are alternatively called jacks or sockets. Ethernet ports accept cable with RJ-45 connectors.

High Definition Multimedia Interface(HDMI)

High definition multimedia interface(HDMI) is a compact audio or video interface for transmitting uncompressed digital data. It is a digital alternative to consumer analog standards, such as radio frequency(RF) coaxial cable, composite video, S-Video, SCART, component video,D-Terminal, or VGA. HDMI connects digital audio/video sources (such as set-top boxes, DVD players, HD DVD players, Blu-ray Disc players, AVCHD camcorders, personal computers (PCs), video game consoles such as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and AV receivers) to compatible digital audio devices, computer monitors, video projectors, and digital televisions.

Basic and Specialized Software Application

Graphical User Interface (GUI)
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. GUIs can be used in computers, hand-held devices such as MP3 players, portable media players or gaming devices, household appliances and office equipment.


Word Processor
A word processor is a computer application used for the production of any type of printable materials. Word processor is also known as stand-alone office machine.


Spreadsheet
 A spreadsheet is a computer application that simulates a paper, accounting worksheet. It displays multiple cells usually in a two-dimensional matrix or grid consisting of rows and columns. Each cell contains alphanumeric text, numeric values or formulas. 


DBMS(Database Management System)
A Database Management System (DBMS) is a software system for archiving files within a structured database such that previously saved versions are traceable and may be recovered in a systematic way. It is a set of computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance, and the use of a database. It allows organizations to place control of database development in the hands of database administrators (DBAs) and other specialists.


Utility Suites
Utility software is a type of system software made to help analyze, configure, optimize and help maintaining the computer. Utility software should be contrasted with application software, which allows users to be able do to things like creating text documents,listening to music or surfing the web.


Web Authoring
Web authoring is to enables the user to develop a web site in a desktop publishing format. This software will generate the required HTML code for the layout based on the designed by the user.


Audio Editing Software
Audio editing software is a software application for audio editing.


Bitmap Images
Bitmap is a type of memory organization or image file format used to store digital image. Bitmap graphics formats have a fixed resolution which means that resizing a bitmap graphic can result in distortion and jagged edges.


Html Editor
An HTML editor is a software application for creating web pages. Although the HTML markup of a web page can be written with any text editor, specialized HTML editors can offer convenience and added functionality.


Image Editor
Image editor is a program that provides lots of variety of special features for altering bit-mapped image. There are actually differences between image editor and paint programs. The differences is paint programs is not always clear-cut while image editor on the other hand are specialized for modifying bit-mapped images.


Multimedia
Basically multimedia is the integration of multiple forms of media.


Vector Images
Vector images are a collection of individual objects rather than picture elements. A vector image can be composed of points connected by lines, or nodes (control points) connected by Bezier curves.

The Internet, The Web & Electronic Commerce

Url
Url is known as Uniform Resource Identifier that specifies where a known resource is available and the mechanism for retrieving it. In popular usage and in many technical documents and verbal discussions it is often incorrectly used as a synonym for URI.

Basically, wiki is a website that gives the creation and editing of any number interlinked web pages. Wikis are naturally powered by wiki software and are often used collaboratively by multiple users.Community websites, corporate intranets, knowledge management systems, and note services are the examples. 

FTP
FTP actually stands for File Transfer Protocol. It is the standard network protocol used to copy a file from one to another over a TCP based network, for example is the Internet. FTP is made on a client-server architecture and utilizes separate control and data connections between the client and server.
