1. What are the main differences/distinction between systems software an application software?
Systems software is a set of instructions that acts as an intermediary between the applications and hardware of the computer. It provides processing activities and functionality to the users of the program.
Application software provides for specific and accurate instruction for tasks and applies certain needs to that tasks.
2. What are the 2 main types of systems software
The two main types of systems software includes:
i. Systems Control Programs use an operating system that supervises the operations of the computer. Some of the tasks this operating system uses scheduling of input and output processors. Other functions of the operating software include multithreading, multitasking, virtual memory and social interfaces.
ii. System Support Program is software that supports the operations, management and IT components sustain the services of the organisation.
3. what is the difference between proprietary and open source software? What considerations should be made when a business selects either software
Proprietary software is a software application that is developed in-house specific to the organisations structure, employment relations, finance and accounting and general administrative functions that are licensed by a vendor.
Open Source software is available to download for no cost and is able to be developed and added to by the organisation.
The considerations that need to be taken into consideration are in the upkeep and maintenance of the product in relation to the IT of the overall organisation. Although the open source software is at no cost and is capable of being added to, there are not distinct personnel that can monitor the IT department. As a result it will have to subcontract to a third party. In the case of Proprietary software it is developed specifically for the organisation and is supported by the IT department if any errors occur.
4. what are some of the legal issues involved in acquiring and using software in most businesses and organisations?
Some of the legal implications that are involved in acquiring software in business include:
* issues of inellectual property=copyrights, patents, trademarks, company secrets can all be affected in the acquisition of software
*counterfeit products and not acquiring proper licensing of software
* copyright and piracy of products which is a criminal offence if the organisation does not go about ensuirng that the products are ligitmate . personnel of the organisation could be liable to pay damages, hefty fines or imprisonment.
* legislative and statutory instruments like the Fair Trading Act deal with the rights and obligation of the directors and other members of the organisation to abide by.
5. What is meant by SaaS? Name some examples of software.
Software as a service is a method of delivering software over the internet. This has encouraged many users of the internet to take advantage of software that is not owned by the user and is inexpensive. Some examples of SaaS include:
-facebook
- myspace
-youtube
The good you find in others, is within you as well. The faults you find in others, are your faults as well. After all, to recognize something on your outer world you must have a reference point on your inner world. The world around you is a reflection, a mirror showing you the person you are. To change your world, simply change yourself. See the best in others, and you will be at your best. Give to others, and you give to yourself. Love others, and you will be loved. Seek to understand, and you will be understood. Listen, and your voice will be heard. Teach, and you will learn.

Tech Guide 1: Computer Hardware
1. What is computer hardware and what are the main hardware components?
Hardware is the physical equipment that is used for the computer system in a business or organisation. The major hardware components include:
a) the Computer Processing Unit: is where the data is manipulated and takes control of the tasks performed by the IT components.
b) Primary Storage: stores the organisations data temporarily
c) Secondary Storage: stores data and information for future uses and it is located in the internal CPU
d) Input technologies: accept data and other sources of information and converts them into a format understood by the computer
e) Output Technology: presents information and data that can be understood by people.
f) Communication technology: provide a flow of information/data from networks, to the Central processing unit and then gives it to other CPU computer networks.
2. What is Moore’s Law/what does it mean in relation to computers.
Moore’s law stemmed form a prediction made in 1965 that the complexity of the microprocessor would double every two years. This has increased the overall speed and performance of computers. This prediction is considerably accurate and the following changes have been made:
- transistors have miniaturised
- physical layers of the chips have become smaller to make the computer as efficient and pragmatic as possible
- change in materials used to improve the conductivity of the chip with the flow of electricity
- additional processors on chips
- Impact of cost with the price of computers being a relatively inexpensive modern commodity in the modern world.
3. In basic terms, describe how a microprocessor functions
A microprocessor consists of millions of microscopic transistors embedded on a circuit. The control unit assesses the actions of a program, decodes them and flows the data to various components including the registers, caches, primary and secondary storage and the output devices. The ALU then makes the mathematical formulas. The formulas then precede to the resistors where information is stored in the primary or secondary storage units.
4. What factors determine the speed of the microprocessor?
The processing speed of the microprocessor is based on:
the clockspeed which is a preset speed which times the activities of the chips usually measured in megahertz or gigahertz.
Word length is the number of bits that the CPU can process within 1 machine cycle
Bus width is the size of the paths of data by the electricl impulses. The wider the bus width the faster the computer is at processing information and carrying out tasks.
Transistor number: the more transistors placed on the chip the faster the speed of processing as the data and information has a shorter distance to travel among the transistors
5. What are the four main types of primary storage?
The four main types of primary storage are:
the register- it has a limited capacity to store instructions and data before and after processing
Random Access Memory (RAM): is the component that stores the software program and minimal amounts for processing. It is volatile and it can loose its contents if the power to the computer is lost. There are 2 forms of RAM
i. dyamic
ii. static
Cache memory: is a high speed memory that allows computers to temporarily store blocks of data and a processor that rapidly finds the data.
Read Only Memory (ROM): is non volatile so it retains instructions and acts as a safeguard. The read only memory cannot be change by the user of the computer and its only read by the computer.
6. What are the main types of secondary storage
Secondary storage holds data for an extended amount of time. Some of the characteristics of this data includes: it is non volatile, takes time to retrieve data and is inexpensive in comparison to primary storage. The main types of secondary data include:
Magnetic Media: magnetic tape is a cassette or cartridge holding large amounts of data. However it takes time retrieving the data as the large capabilities of data that can be held on it.
Hard drive is a fixed, mass storage device that is most commonly used for there efficiency in cost, speed and its storage capacity.
Optical Storage device: reads and holds data via lasers and magnetism, holding large amounts of data. Some forms of optical storage devices includes: holographic memory, DVD and CD’s
Flash memory devices: have the capability of holding and storing data that can be easily erased. They are non volatile and come in many of the latest cameras, computers, laptops etc.
Eneterprise Storage System: is an independent, external system that provides a large amounts of information, high degree of availability and protects from a loss of data
7. How does primary storage differ from secondary storage in terms of speed, cost and capacity?
Primary storage is particular to the general hardware of the computer and its basic storage capabilities. It is expensive to upgrade and the more information placed on the primary storage can affect the processing speed of the computer and therefore affecting the overall performance of tasks.
Secondary storage is external devices that extended the memory capacity a computer can hold and doesn’t affect the processing speed of the computer. In the present these forms of storage are relatively inexpensive, erasing unwanted files and information and are reprogrammable.
Primary storage differs from secondary storage in terms of speed cost and capacity.
8. What are enterprise storage systems?
Enterprise storage systems is an is an independent, external system that provides a large amounts of information, high degree of availability and protects from a loss of data. The types of Enterprise Storage Systems include:
Redundant Arrays of Independent Discs: is a standard storage device with multiple microcontrollers that duplicates data ensuring that no data is lost or ruined.
Storage Area Network: is the architecture for building networks that allow for data to be accessed from a variety of sources and servers.
Network Attached Storage: provides the storage of files to users who access the device over a network and is likened to a general file server.
9. Distinguish between human data input and source data automation.
Human data input requires an element of the human factor in entering data into relevant processes eg: key boards, touchscreens etc.
Source data automation devices input require minimal human input. This form allows for greater efficiency, reduces errors and mistakes and allows for easier sorting of data.

A Computer-based Information System is an information system that uses computer technology to perform a task or tasks. They are interrelated as they are both applications designed for specofoc purpose eg: MYOB for accounting and financing processes, Word for general business usage and Excel for data entry and collection. It is also a support tool that helps the intentions of the business/organisation.
2. What are strategic Information Systems?
A strategic Information system is a system that allows an organisation to gain a competitive advantage by supporting its gaols, plans and objectives which inherently increases productivity.
3. According to Porter, What are the five forces that could endanger a firms position in its industry or marketplace?
Porter's model demonstrates the importance of IT in the operation of the business to maintain a competitive advantage. The 5 competive forces that could endanger the firms position include the following:
1. the threat of new competitor's entering the market
2. the bargaining power of suppliers
3. the bargaining powers of the customers
4. the threat of substitute products or services
5. rivalries among exisiting firms in the industry.
4. In relation to Porter's value chain model, what is meant by primary activities and supportactivites, and how does IT support these activities?
Porter's value chain model identifies strategies to provide specific activities a company/ business can use to gain a competitive adavantage through the impact of the organisations IT.
Primary Activities: are those which specifically realte to the production and distribution of a good. these include:
1. Inputs
2. Operations eg: manufacturing and testing the product for suitability and quality

4 What are/discuss some of the common, IT oriented organisational responses to theses pressures?
IT has attempted to respond to such pressure through the implementation of the following organisational strategies. These include the following:
* Strategic systems: the planning which gives the business direction as to the goals they wish to achieve to secure a competitive advantage.
*Customer focus: many business have used the internet to access a market that has an endless supply of customers. As such goods and services advertised on websites, allows for businesses to acquire marketshare and profits. IT has allowed customer details to be remebered through personalising a sign-in and an account that keeps a record of customer tastes, pattern of consumption etc.
*Made to Order and Mass Customisation: through high demand of products accessible online has allowed products to be made as required, cutting down inventory costs and unused materials. Technology has also stepped in where the human element of the business (personnel operating machinery) have been cut out and have been replaced by mechanisation and robotics., which allows for mass production of goods to be down efficently.
*E-business and E-commerce: has contributed to the way people interact, operate and function within a business. Examples of this include emailing systems, faxes, telephone calls etc to communicate among businesses.
5. How are IT architecture and IT infrastructure interrelated.
IT architecture is a high-level map or plan of the information assests of the organisation which intergrates the overall organisation and the indeividual user.
IT infrastructure are the phyical feature of the organisation including IT components and IT management which supports the business.
They are itnerrelated as they work together achieving the goals and objectives of the business and how the physical requirements of IT will support, tailor and execute these needs to suit the operations of a business.
6. Is the Internet an infrastructure, and architecture or an application program? or something else. Why?
The Internet is all threee of these: an infrastructure, and architecture and an application program. Each of these elements work together to achieve the plans first established by the architecture, put into the infrastructure and to be an applicable program to help execute the duties of the business.

Chapter 1: The Modern organisation in the Global, Web-based Environment
1. What Are the Characteristics of the modern global environment?
Globalisation which has paved way for the integration and interdependance of the social, political, technological, ecomonic and cultural aspects of the business environment. these elements allow for the business environment to be supported and driven by the effects of technology. The informatuion resources of the internet and other technology has allowed the business environment to be information and knowledge intensive, interconnecting businesses worldwide at easy convenience.
2. What is meant by a web-based, global platform, what does it provide, and how has it affected business?
A global web-based platform is respresented by the internet which allows for integration, connection and collaborative computing over an application that is reached by individuals or businesses anywhere, anytime at their personal convenience in real time. it has affected business activities in the following ways:
* finite information, service and entertainment is present at a click of a button at indivdual personal convenience
*integration of knowledge from people around the world from experiences, knowledge and from a variety of sources
* produces the opportunity to sell goods and services
operates without regard to physical distance of geographic regions, time and language barriers.
These few point mentioned above have allowed business to be conducted at anytime, at any place. Businesses can arrange meetings, schedules, plans and other activities with relative ease, at a cheap cost and almost instantaneously. the powers of the internet allows the time difference not to be a factor in reaching as such operations have shrunk communication methods bringing the world closer together.
3. What are the main pressures that characterise the modern global business environment?
A combination of business pressures in the modern business world have affected, either detrimentally or positively the operations of a business. In using IT it can support and respond to these effects reducing and minimising there impact on the organisation. Some of these characteristics of the modern business world include:
* Market pressures which encourage the economy building strong competition, changing the nature of the workforce and has given more market power to consumers increasing availability and a pool of options to obtain products if they are unavailable.
* Technology pressures have encouraged the mortality of products to become obsolete in order to innovate and introduce more superior products. IT has allowed for innovative designs of programs to cushion and support the adverse effects of external forces. Accelerated technology has also reduced the life expectancy of products with constant new IT resources eg: laptops, computers, mobile phones etc.
*Information overload. The powers of the internet has increased the availability of knowledge and as such has been collected through a collaboration of primary and secondary sources.
*Political/Social/Legal pressures. Cybercafe's have extended the availability of the internet at places that have high people traffic. Businesses have had an increased social responsibility from which the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) has emerged to keep children in touch with the resources of the internet.
Governments have also attempted to regulate the internet through protecting privacy. IT has helped in creating security systems protecting employee information, maintained confidentiality of procedures and finances and strengthen software.
