I
C
These sites are all called 'social networking' sites because they help people
O meet and discuss things online. Each of these social networking sites has its
UNIASSELVI GABARITO DAS AUTOATIVIDADES 5
NEAD
own strengths: MySpace is especially popular among teenagers, Facebook
is popular with college age people, Orkut is especially loved in Brazil, and
CyWorld is the site to visit in South Korea. The common thread between all
of these social networks is that they provide a place for people to interact,
rather than a place to go to read or listen to 'content'.

Web 2.0

Social networks are considered to be web 2.0. What does this mean? To
understand this, it's important to understand what the original web did (often
called web 1.0). Back in the nineties, the internet - or web - was a place to
go to read articles, listen to music, get information, etc. Most people didn't
contribute to the sites. They just 'browsed' the sites and took advantage of
the information or resources provided. Of course, some people did create
their own sites. However, creating a site was difficult. You needed to know
basic HTML coding (the original language the internet uses to 'code' pages).
It certainly wasn't something most people wanted to do as it could take hours
to get a basic page just right. Things began to get easier when blogs (from
web log) were introduced. With blogs, many more people began writing 'posts',
as well as commenting on other people's blogs.

MySpace Surprises Everybody

In 2003 a site named MySpace took the internet by storm. It was trying to
mimic the most popular features of Friendster, the first social networking site.
It quickly became popular among young users and the rest was history. Soon
everyone was trying to develop a social networking site. The sites didn't provide
'content' to people, they helped people create, communicate and share what
they loved including music, images and videos. They key to the success of
these sites is that they provide a platform on which users create the content.
This is very different from the beginning of the internet which focused on
providing 'content' for people to enjoy.

success stories include: Wikipedia, Digg.com and the latest success - Twitter. Ê

about Instagram, or if you need support, please visit our support center. L
Ê
1.1.1 What is Instagram? S
Instagram is a fun and quirky way to share your life with friends through a T
series of pictures. Snap a photo with your mobile phone, then choose a filter É
C
to transform the image into a memory to keep around forever. We're building N
Instagram to allow you to experience moments in your friends' lives through I
C
pictures as they happen. We imagine a world more connected through photos. O
8 GABARITO DAS AUTOATIVIDADES UNIASSELVI
NEAD
1.1.2 How much is your app?
$0.00 - available for free in the Apple App Store and Google Play store.
1.1.3 Where does the name come from?
When we were kids we loved playing around with cameras. We loved how
different types of old cameras marketed themselves as "instant" - something
we take for granted today. We also felt that the snapshots people were taking
were kind of like telegrams in that they got sent over the wire to others - so
we figured why not combine the two?
1.1.4 How did the idea come about?
We love taking photos. We always assumed taking interesting photos required
a big bulky camera and a couple years of art school. But as mobile phone
cameras got better and better, we decided to challenge that assumption. We
created Instagram to solve three simple problems:
1. Mobile photos always come out looking mediocre. Our awesome looking
filters transform your photos into professional-looking snapshots.
2. Sharing on multiple platforms is a pain - we help you take a picture once,
then share it (instantly) on multiple services.
3. Most uploading experiences are clumsy and take forever - we've optimized
the experience to be fast and efficient.
1.1.5 What other services are you compatible with?
Currently, you can share your photos on a photo-by-photo basis on Flickr,
Facebook, and Twitter. Additionally, if you specify a location with your photo,
you can opt to have us check you in on Foursquare. Going forward, we plan on
supporting additional services but have nothing else to announce at this time.

1.1 What are computers?

Computers are machines that perform tasks or calculations according to a set

of instructions, or programs. The first fully electronic computers, introduced
in the 1940s, were huge machines that required teams of people to operate.
Compared to those early machines, today's computers are amazing. Not
only are they thousands of times faster, they can fit on your desk, on your
lap, or even in your pocket.

Computers work through an interaction of hardware and

software. Hardware refers to the parts of a computer that you can see and
touch, including the case and everything inside it. The most important piece
of hardware is a tiny rectangular chip inside your computer called the central
processing unit (CPU), or  microprocessor. It's the "brain" of your
computer—the part that translates instructions and performs calculations.
Hardware items such as your monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, and other
components are often called hardware devices, or devices.

Software refers to the instructions, or programs, that tell the hardware what

to do. A word-processing program that you can use to write letters on your
computer is a type of software. The operating system (OS) is software that
manages your computer and the devices connected to it. Windows is a
well-known operating system.

1.2 ENIAC

Introduced in 1946, ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer)

was the first general-purpose electronic computer. It was built for the United
States military to calculate the paths of artillery shells. Physically, ENIAC
was enormous, weighing more than 27,000 kilograms (60,000 pounds) and
filling a large room. To process data, ENIAC used about 18,000 vacuum
tubes, each the size of a small light bulb. The tubes burned out easily and
had to be constantly replaced.

I 1.3 Types of computers

N
G
L Computers range in size and capability. At one end of the scale are
Ê
S supercomputers, very large computers with thousands of linked
T microprocessors that perform extremely complex calculations. At the other
É end are tiny computers embedded in cars, TVs, stereo systems, calculators,
C
N and appliances. These computers are built to perform a limited number of
I
C tasks.

The personal computer, or PC, is designed to be used by one person at
a time. This section describes the various kinds of personal computers:
desktops, laptops, handheld computers, and Tablet PCs.

1.3.1 Desktop computers

Desktop computers  are designed for use at a desk or table. They are
typically larger and more powerful than other types of personal computers.
Desktop computers are made up of separate components. The main
component, called the system unit, is usually a rectangular case that sits
on or underneath a desk. Other components, such as the monitor, mouse,
and keyboard, connect to the system unit.

Desktop computer
Laptops and netbooks

Laptops are lightweight mobile PCs with a thin screen. Laptops can operate
on batteries, so you can take them anywhere. Unlike desktops, laptops
I
combine the CPU, screen, and keyboard in a single case. The screen folds N
down onto the keyboard when not in use. G

Netbooks  (also referred to as  mini notebooks), are small, affordable
laptops that are designed to perform a limited number of tasks. They’re T

Smartphones

Smartphones are mobile phones that have some of the same capabilities

as a computer. You can use a smartphone to make telephone calls, access
the Internet, organize contact information, send e‑mail and text messages,
play games, and take pictures. Smartphones usually have a keyboard and
a large screen.

I
C
computers have touch screens that you use with your finger or a stylus (a
O pen-shaped pointing tool).
UNIASSELVI GABARITO DAS AUTOATIVIDADES 13
NEAD

Handheld computer
Tablet PCs

Tablet PCs are mobile PCs that combine features of laptops and handheld
computers. Like laptops, they’re powerful and have a built-in screen. Like
handheld computers, they allow you to write notes or draw pictures on the
screen, usually with a tablet pen instead of a stylus. They can also convert
your handwriting into typed text. Some Tablet PCs are “convertibles” with a
screen that swivels and unfolds to reveal a keyboard underneath.

MICROPROCESSOR

This device is a small integrated circuit on a ‘chip’, designed and manufactured

with computer help. It was introduced as a natural step in the movement to
putting more and more components – resistors, capacitors, transistors – on to
a single chip, by eletronic component manufactures. Each chip can perform
the function of a simple central processor, i.e. obey a series of instructions,
fetch and send data from and to a memory, test for interrupts and soon, but
usually relatively slowly. It takes for example a hundred millionths rather than
one millionth of a second to add two numbers, and these numbers have to
be of limited size. Nevertheless, the miniature programs which control the
operation can carry out quite complicated operations on bigger numbers by
tackling them a piece at a time.

Another use for microprocessors is in managing a ‘memory’, i.e. decoding

demands for data from another central processor, and interrogating the core
storage, checking for errors etc.

There are two ways in which microprocessors may make a big impact. One
is in the Field of process control at the small end of the range: bus engines
or petrol pumps or even washing machines controlled economically by
microprocessors. Secondly, the microprocessor may be used in large numbers
as a substitute for a single, big processor, to do certain kinds of computation
where calculations can proceed in parallel, as in weather forecasting. In
essence each microprocessor has acess to its own memory for holding the
results of intermediate calculations, and also can send and obtain values
I
from other microprocessors. All the microprocessors operate at once, so the
N ‘ripples’ of computation travel across an array of them.

Types of Programming Errors I

N
G
There are two general types of errors that programmers make: syntax or L
Ê
coding errors and logic errors. S

T
A syntax or coding error occurs when the programmer fails to follow the rules É
C
on how a particular instruction is to be written. For example, if a programmer N
misspelled the word WRITE in an instruction, the computer would print out a I
C
diagnostic message to inform the programmer that a coding error had been O
20 GABARITO DAS AUTOATIVIDADES UNIASSELVI
NEAD
made, the statement in which it occured, and the nature of the error. As a
result of the severity of these errors, the computer was unable to completely
understand the program and consequently the program was not executed.
Compilers level of sophistication that allows them to make corrective
assumptions concerning common coding errors. For example, if a programmer
omitted a required comma in an instruction, the compiler would print out an
appropriate diagnostic message and proceed with the compilation as if the
comma had been present.

Once the programmer has removed all the coding errors, the compiler is
able to understand and translate the programmer’s instructions. However,
when executed, the translated instructions may not be appropriate to solve
the problem. Errors resulting from an incorrect sequence of instructions are
referred to as logic errors. If the programmer added when he should have
subtracted, for example, he would have made an error in the program logic – a
logic error. There are no fixed rules on how debugging a program containing
logic errors should be accomplished because the kinds of bugs that can occur
are so varied.

The important difference is that the “data base” must be stored in the computer
on direct-acess storage (such as disks) in order for the computer’s central
processing unit to be able to utilize the cross-references within a reasonable
time. By contrast, a set of cross-referenced files could be theoretically stored
on magnetic tape. However, the computer would then spend unacceptable
amounts of time searching the tapes because it is not possible to Access a
specific data record on tape without passing over all other data preceding
it on the tape. Despite this disadvantage, however, magnetic tape is likely
to remain the principal storage médium for archival computer files for many
years to come, in view of its relatively low cost and high retention qualities.

The term “cross-reference” is not usually used when talking about a data base,
the most usual term being “relation”. One speaks of a relationship existing
between types of records in a data base. A record type is analogous to a color-
coded folder in a filing cabinet where different record types are segregated
by varied colors. An individual folder may contain a reference to one or more
other individual folders elsewhere in a set of cabinets. A referenced folder
may have the same or a different color code as the folder that references it. In
the data base, such relationships are stored in such a way that searching for
records can be done directly without extensive cross-checking. Thus, the user
has considerably more flexibility in the way in which he precesses the data.
