Types of Computer
Analog Computer
An analog computer is a form of computer that uses the continuously-changeable aspects of physical phenomena such as electrical, mechanical or hydraulic quantities to model the problem being solved.
Digital Computers
A computer that performs calculations and logical operations with quantities represented as digits, usually in the binary number system.
Hybrid Computers
Hybrid computers are computers that contain features of analog computers and digital computers. The digital component normally serves as the controller and provides logical operations, while the analog component normally serves as a solver of differential equations.

Computers Memory
Primary Memory
1. RAM 2. ROM
Secondary Memory
Hard Disc 2.USB 3. CD 4. Floppy
Primary Memory
RAM (Random Access Memory) RAM is volatile types of memory where its stored information is lost if the power is removed. It is used to access the data, thats why more memory of RAM increases the speed of Computer.
Primary Memory
ROM (Read Only Memory) ROM is firm made memory which read the data, devices and programs installed in computer. Data stored in ROM cannot be modified.
Secondary Memory
Hard Disc It is computers storage device where we keep our data and programs, it is a non volatile memory which keep our information until we remove it from computer.
Secondary Storage
CD (Compact Disc) The Compact Disc (also known as a CD) is an optical disc used to store digital data. It was originally developed to store and playback sound recordings, but later expanded to encompass data storage
USB are also the storages devices but they are small, fast and portable type of flash memory which are used to travel the data from one computer to others.
Floppy Disc
This type of storage devices now a days are out dated, it was also used to store and travel the data, but its storage capacity was not enough like now a days it is available in USB.
Computer Network
Two or more than two computers connected with one an other to communicate and share their resources and information is called a Network.
LAN (Local Area Network) MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) WAN (Wide Area Network) GAN (Global Area Network)
Within a room or within a building computers are connected to share the resources & information comes in the category of LAN. Its range is up to 1 kilo meter.
Within a city or up to 10 kilometers computers are connected to share the information comes in the category of MAN. It is a networking to interconnect in a city through network.
Within a region or Province computers are connected through a cable or wireless to share the information comes in the category of WAN.
A Network of thousands of individual network, or connecting thousands of computers globally for communication purpose to share information, upload, download files worldwide. It is also called Internet.
Types of Network
Client-Server Network?
The clientserver model of computing is a distributed application structure that partitions tasks or workloads between the providers of a resource or service, called servers, and service requesters, called clients.
Peer-to-Peer Network?
Peers make a portion of their resources, such as processing power, disk storage, directly available to other network participants, without the need for central coordination by servers or stable hosts.
Network Topology

It is a computer-based information system that collects, process, store and transmit electronic message, document and other form of communication among individual, work group and organizations. Examples- word processing, electronic mail, telecommunication and document image processing.
Computer Aided Design: the use of computer for the process of design. CAD describes the process of drafting with a computer. CAD software provides the user with input-tools for the purpose of design processes; drafting, documentation, and manufacturing processes. Computer Aided Manufacturing: the use of a computer to assist in all operations of a manufacturing plant, including planning, management, transportation and storage. Its primary purpose is to create a faster production process and components and tooling with more precise dimensions and material consistency.
