Today one can not think off any work without the use of computers .
Wherever one go they find some type of computer use for all the every
day activity . In education , banks , military , retails shops , industry and
organization , space research and many more fields the computer plays an
important parts . Today the vast amount of information that is contained
on the Internet is a cluster of many more computers on the network .
In ancient time people were involved in computing and are called as
``computer . Computer was originally a job title describing those
people whose job was to perform the repetitive calculations required to
compute for the navigational tables , tide charts , and planetary
positions for astronomical almanacs (Kopplin 2002 . Also the ``abacus '
was used by Babylonians as an early aid for mathematical computations at
around 3000 B .C (Bauer n .d . In 1617 John Napier invented logarithms
that allow multiplication to be performed via addition . Sometimes later
in 1642 Pascal invented the ``Pascaline , a gear driven calculator for
aid to his father in tax collector job . At the same time Gottfried
Wilhelm Leibniz made a calculator (stepped reckoner ) that was able to
perform addition , subtraction , multiplication , and division . In 1801 ,
the Frenchman Joseph Marie Jacquard made wooden card for Power loom .

arithmetic and logical unit and input and output (I /O ) devices which are
connected with the help of busses (wires . Computer professionals often
refer whole computer as the CPU . In such case CPU refers to the
processor , memory (RAM ) and Input /Output (I /O ) architecture (channels or
buses .Moreover , CPU definitions and understanding vary depending on
field of the person therefore , a CPU can mean the processor , memory and
everything inside the cabinet , or just the microprocessor itself . CPU
stands for Central Processing Unit and is referred as brain of the
computer . It is also called as processor or central processor and most
of the calculation takes place in it . CPU is responsible for controlling
all the activities of the computer systems . It is mounted on motherboard
with other electronics . The CPU is linked to main memory , peripheral
equipment and...
