WGU C724 Study Sets , Exam Qu estions and answers, 100% Accurate. VERIFIED. The evolution of software has produced the ability to manage large databases of information, known as - ✔✔-database management systems (DBMS) was the first computer software language for business applications - ✔✔-Common Business Oriented Language (COBOL) is a programming environment that provides tools to developers to write code. - ✔✔-Integrated Development Environment (IDE) components include devices that provide input into the processing unit. These include peripherals, such as the keyboard, m ouse, microphone (audio input), sensors, and document or visual scanners . - ✔✔-
Input which is the brain of the computer. Historically, this unit included several components, such as a control unit, a processor, an arithmetic or logic unit, and memory comp onents. - ✔✔-Central Processing Unit (CPU) components include primary temporary storage and secondary long -term storage devices . - ✔✔-Storage is temporary or short -term storage used by the processor. - ✔✔-Random Access Memory (RAM) components include internal storage devices or processes, as well as external peripherals such as monitor screens (visual output), speakers (audio output), and print ers (physical output). - ✔✔-Output which is the medium through which communications between the input, processor, storage, and output occur. - ✔✔-System Bus or similarly the backplane, of a system is the device that contains the system bus and connects t he various input and output devices that compose any given computer system . - ✔✔-Motherboard tracking barcodes and wireless sensor networks, some used in supply chain operations. - ✔✔-radio frequency identification (RFID) A person interacts with digital data through a physical environment. - ✔✔-Tangible User Interface (TUI) is the most advanced integrated circuit and holds millions of integrated circuits in a semiconductor chip. They are programmable devices that process instructions and incorporate the four functions of a computer central processing unit (CPU), which includes fetch, decode, execute and store. - ✔✔-
Microprocessor A chip with multiple CPUs is called a ........ This typically provides more computing power for they can run multiple instructi ons in parallel. - ✔✔-Multicore processor coined by the co -founder of Intel, described that components in integrated circuits or microchips will double every two years. - ✔✔-Moore's Law otherwise known as CPU cache and random access memory (RAM), are ty pically referred to as volatile flash memory, meaning that information storage is temporary and can only be stored until power is removed. - ✔✔-Primary Storage is accessed only through a system's input/output bus and is generally several orders of magnitu de slower than primary storage technologies. On the other hand, costs per byte for ........... have historically been quite a bit less than primary storage technologies. Examples of ............. include magnetic hard disk drives, which are spinning magneti c disks with moving read and write heads, as well as newer, more modern solid state nonvolatile flash storage. ............. also includes removable media, such as magnetic floppy disks, optical discs (CDs & DVDs), and USB flash drives. - ✔✔-Secondary Sto rage Small systems are used on an individual basis (i.e., one -person use) and include traditional multicomponent desktop systems (monitor, computer, keyboard, mouse) and integrated systems, such as laptops and tablet computers. - ✔✔-Personal Computer (PC) A more powerful system used by individuals in order to run more resource -intensive applications. - ✔✔-
Workstation A system used to provide services to other systems. Servers need not be powerful computers. Server operating systems may be used on persona l computers, including desktops or laptops, though usually servers are built on more resilient and reliable components. - ✔✔-Server A high -capacity, high -performance system built for large organizations and used to quickly process large volumes of data. - ✔✔-Mainframe This term merely implies the fastest category of computer available. Supercomputers are purpose built to handle vast a mounts of information very quickly. Examples of supercomputer applications include simulating global weather patterns, decoding genome structures, or simulating the human mind. - ✔✔-
Supercomputer A form of supercomputer constructed from many smaller syste ms that have been connected together. - ✔✔-Grid computing A software -based platform that allows multiple virtual servers, isolated from host computer, to operate on a single or, potentially, a fabric of many systems. Initially intended to more efficiently use expensive and underutilized hardware, virtualization has allowed for better fault tolerance and flexible, dynamic, and automated server operation and maintenance. - ✔✔-Virtual computing is software whose source -code is freely available to developers and users. .............. is developed not by single users or companies, but by communities of connected users and groups. - ✔✔-Open Source Software is a system used to convert plain -text document into one optimized for viewing as a Web page, integrating colors, graphics, fonts, and links. - ✔✔-Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) A computer language similar to HTML, XML makes it easier to exchange, validate, store, and interpret data between a variety of applications and systems. - ✔✔-Extensible markup lang uage (XML) Many graphical and traditional text based HTML editors exist and range from the unsophisticated text editors to feature rich graphical WYSIWIG (What You See Is What You Get) interfaces. Modern popular examples include Adobe's Dreamweaver and Mi crosoft's Visual Studio. - ✔✔-Web design tools Graphics, video, animations, and interactive multimedia are popular elements in Web pages. Popular tools used to create these elements include Adobe's Photoshop, Flash, and Premier products. - ✔✔-
Graphics too ls Tools that allow webmasters and developers to achieve better rankings from search engines, implying that traffic would better route to a site as a result . - ✔✔-Search engine optimization Services are provided in -house on servers or in a datacenter own ed, managed, and administered by the organization. - ✔✔-On Premises (private cloud) Software licensed and hosted on centralized or distributed servers that belong to a service provider. Users access this software using a connection to the Internet and a W eb browser. Examples include Salesforce.com's CRM (Customer Relationship Management) application or Google Apps. - ✔✔-Software as a service (SAAS A service provider provides server space, the server, virtualization, operating system, database, and develop ment environment in a platform that can be used for application development. An example would be Amazon Web Services. - ✔✔-Platform as a service (PAAS) A service provider provides a cloud fabric, or pooled services, including server space, servers, storag e, and all other aspects of the computing platform, with the exception of the operating system and applications, which the client organization would install and manage. Benefits include dynamic scaling and may include geographic distribution. An example wo uld be Windows Azure or Rackspace. - ✔✔-
Infrastructure as a service (IAAS) ensures that only authorized personnel are admitted access . - ✔✔-Confidentiality ensures that data is produced and modified in the correct way. - ✔✔-Integrity
