EXPERIMENT 1 – INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER AND CAMPUS
NETWORKING
Objective
 To acquaint the students with different hardware parts of the computer system and layout of the MCS
network from student prospective
Time Required : 3 hrs
Programming Language : NIL
Software Required : NIL
Hardware Required : Computer System

Procedure
Physically show each hardware part and hands on experience with login procedure.

Introduction to Computer Components


Motherboard: A motherboard (sometimes alternatively known as the main
board, system board, planar board or logic board, or colloquially, a mab0) is the
main printed circuit board (PCB) found in computers and other expandable
systems. It holds many of the crucial electronic components of the system, such
as the central processing unit (CPU) and memory, and provides connectors for
other peripherals. Unlike a backplane, a motherboard contains significant sub-
systems such as the processor.

Microprocessor: A microprocessor incorporates the functions of a computer's


central processing unit (CPU) on a single integrated circuit (IC), or at most a
few integrated circuits. It is a multipurpose, programmable device that accepts
digital data as input, processes it according to instructions stored in its memory,
and provides results as output. It is an example of sequential digital logic, as it
has internal memory. Microprocessors operate on numbers and symbols
represented in the binary numeral system.

Hard Disk: A hard disk drive (HDD) is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information
using rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. An HDD retains its data even when powered
off. Data is read in a random-access manner,
meaning individual blocks of data can be stored or
retrieved in any order rather than sequentially. An
HDD consists of one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly
rotating disks (platters) with magnetic heads
arranged on a moving actuator arm to read and
write data to the surfaces.

Optical Driver (CD Rom Driver): CD-ROM discs are read using CD-ROM drives.
A CD-ROM drive may be connected to the computer via an IDE (ATA), SCSI,
SATA, FireWire, or USB interface or a proprietary interface, such as the Panasonic
CD interface. Virtually all modern CD-ROM drives can also play audio CDs (as well
as Video CDs and other data standards) when used in conjunction with the right
software.

CD-ROM: This modern miracle gained prominence in the late 1980's and has become the primary distribution
medium for software to consumers. The Compact Disk-Read Only Memory (CD-ROM) disk itself is a
5 Fundamental of ICT– Introduction to Computer and Campus Networking
collection of concentric circles containing millions of pits and plateaus which
correspond to on/off bits of data. The disk is read with an optical laser similar to
the one used to scan your groceries at the supermarket. Most disks of this kind are
"Read only" meaning that the computer can retrieve information from the disk,
but cannot place information on it. New developments have improved this
technology to allow writing and rewriting data to the disk. A different kind of
hardware mechanism is needed to employ this innovation.

Random-access memory (RAM): Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of


computer data storage. A random-access device allows stored data to be accessed
directly in any random order. In contrast, other data storage media such as hard
disks, CDs, DVDs and magnetic tape, as well as early primary memory types such
as drum memory, read and write data only in a predetermined order, consecutively,
because of mechanical design limitations. Therefore the time to access a given data
location varies significantly depending on its physical location.

RAM TYPE PINS WIDTH USAGE


SD RAM 168 64 bit Older and slower type. No use.
Rambus RAM 184 16 bit Advanced RAM. Only used for very few
Pentium 4’s with certain Intel chipsets.
DDR RAM 184 64 bit A faster version of SD RAM. Used both for
Athlon and Pentium 4’s. 2,5 Volt.
DDR2 RAM 240 64 bit New version of DDR RAM with higher clock
frequencies. 1,8 Volt.

Power Supply: A power supply unit (PSU) converts mains AC to low-voltage regulated
DC power for the internal components of a computer. Modern personal computers
universally use a switched-mode power supply. Some power supplies have a manual
selector for input voltage, while others automatically adapt to the supply voltage.

Data Cables: Serial ATA (Advance Technology Attachment)(SATA) is a computer bus


interface that connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices such as hard disk drives
and optical drives. Serial ATA replaces the older AT Attachment standard (ATA later
referred to as Parallel ATA or PATA), offering several advantages over the older interface:
reduced cable size and cost (seven conductors instead of 40), native hot swapping, faster
data transfer through higher signalling rates, and more efficient transfer through an
(optional) I/O queuing protocol.

Computer Network Overview:


A computer network consists of a collection of computers,
printers and other equipment that is connected together so that
they can communicate with each other. An example of a network
comprising of a local area network or LAN connecting computers
with each other, the internet, and various servers.

6 Fundamental of ICT– Introduction to Computer and Campus Networking


Characteristics of a Computer Network
The primary purpose of a computer network is to share resources:
 You can play a CD music from one computer while sitting on
another computer
 You may have a computer that doesn’t have a DVD or BluRay
(BD) player. In this case, you can place a movie disc (DVD or
BD) on the computer that has the player, and then view the
movie on a computer that lacks the player
 You may have a computer with a CD/DVD/BD writer or a
backup system but the other computer(s) doesn’t (don't) have it.
In this case, you can burn discs or make backups on a computer
that has one of these but using data from a computer that
doesn’t have a disc writer or a backup system
 You can connect a printer (or a scanner, or a fax machine) to one computer and let other computers of the
network print (or scan, or fax) to that printer (or scanner, or fax machine)
 You can place a disc with pictures on one computer and let other computers access those pictures
 You can create files and store them in one computer, then access those files from the other computer(s)
connected to it

EXPERIMENT 2 – INTRODUCTION TO MS OFFICE
Objective
To acquaint the students with different applications available in MS office Package.
Time Required : 3 hrs
Programming Language : NIL
Software Required : Microsoft Office 2007 or latest
Hardware Required : NIL

Procedure
To open an application, Double click quickly on the application icon (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc.) on the
Windows desktop. Or, click the Start button, in the lower left corner of the screen, then click All Programs, move
the cursor over Microsoft Office and select the desired application.

MS Office Applications
Following applications are available in MS Office; we’ll be addressing each one by one.
 MS Word
 MS Power Point
 MS Excel
 MS Outlook, MS Publisher

MS Word: Microsoft Word is an example of a program called a “word processor.”Word processors are used to
create and print text documents in much the same way that you would use a typewriter. The key benefit to using
a word processor is that you can make changes easily, including correcting spelling; adding, deleting, formatting,
and relocating text; and inserting images. Once you create a document, you can effortlessly print it (as many
copies as you want!), save it for later modifications, or send it to a friend via e-mail. Microsoft Word is a very
powerful word processor

MS Excel: Microsoft Excel is an example of a program called a “spreadsheet.”Spreadsheets are used to organize
real world data, such as a check register or a rolodex. Data can be numerical or alphanumeric (involving letters
or numbers). The key benefit to using a spreadsheet program is that you can make changes easily, including
correcting spelling or values, adding, deleting, formatting, and relocating data. You can also program the
spreadsheet to perform certain functions automatically (such as addition and subtraction), and a spreadsheet can
hold almost limitless amounts of data—a whole filing cabinet’s worth of information can be included in a single
spreadsheet. Once you create a spreadsheet, you can effortlessly print it (as many copies as you want!), save it for
later modifications, or send it to a colleague via e-mail. Microsoft Excel is a very powerful calculator

MS Power Point: Microsoft PowerPoint is a software product used to perform computer-based presentations.
There are various circumstances in which a presentation is made: teaching a class, introducing a product to sell,
explaining an organizational structure, etc.

MS Outlook: Microsoft Outlook is a versatile component of the Microsoft Office 2003 for users to manage
personal information and to communicate with others. It helps you in managing your email messages,
appointments, contacts, and tasks, as well as making reminders and tracking activities

MS Publisher: Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing program that can be used to create a variety of
publications. Using Publisher, you can easily create business cards, greeting cards, calendars, newsletters and
much, much more

There are many elements to and excel formula.


References: The cell or range of cells that you want to use in your calculation
Operators: Symbols (+, -, *, /, etc.) that specify the calculation to be performed
Constants: Numbers or text values that do not change
Functions: Predefined formulas in Excel
To create a basic formula in Excel:
 Select the cell for the formula
 Type = (the equal sign) and the formula
 Click Enter

Calculate with Functions: A function is a built in formula in Excel. A function has a name and arguments (the
mathematical function) in parentheses. Common functions in Excel:
Sum: Adds all cells in the argument
Average: Calculates the average of the cells in the argument
Min: Finds the minimum value
Max: Finds the maximum value
Count: Finds the number of cells that contain a numerical value within a range of the argument
To calculate a function:
 Click the cell where you want the function applied
 Click the Insert Function button
 Choose the function
 Click OK

106 Fundamental of ICT – MS Excel-I


 Complete the Number 1 box with the first cell in the range that you want calculated
 Complete the Number 2 box with the last cell in the range that you want calculated

Function Library: The function library is a large group of functions on the Formula Tab of the Ribbon. These
functions include:
AutoSum: Easily calculates the sum of a range
Recently Used: All recently used functions
Financial: Accrued interest, cash flow return rates and additional financial functions
Logical: And, If, True, False, etc.
Text: Text based functions
Date & Time: Functions calculated on date and time
Math & Trig: Mathematical Functions

Relative, Absolute and Mixed References: Calling cells by just their column and row labels (such as "A1") is
called relative referencing. When a formula contains relative referencing and it is copied from one cell to
another, Excel does not create an exact copy of the formula. It will change cell addresses relative to the row and
column they are moved to. For example, if a simple addition formula in cell C1 "=(A1+B1)" is copied to cell
C2, the formula would change to "=(A2+B2)" to reflect the new row. To prevent this change, cells must be called
by absolute referencing and this is accomplished by placing dollar signs "$" within the cell addresses in the
formula. Continuing the previous example, the formula in cell C1 would read "=($A$1+$B$1)" if the value of
cell C2 should be the sum of cells A1 and B1. Both the column and row of both cells are absolute and will not

107 Fundamental of ICT – MS Excel-I


change when copied. Mixed referencing can also be used where only the row OR column fixed. For example,
in the formula "=(A$1+$B2)", the row of cell A1 is fixed and the column of cell B2 is fixed.

Linking Worksheets: You may want to use the value from a cell in another worksheet within the same
workbook in a formula. For example, the value of cell A1 in the current worksheet and cell A2 in the second
worksheet can be added using the format "sheetname!celladdress". The formula for this example would be
"=A1+Sheet2!A2" where the value of cell A1 in the current worksheet is added to the value of cell A2 in the
worksheet named "Sheet2".
Macros
Macros are advanced features that can speed up editing or formatting you may perform often in an Excel
worksheet. They record sequences of menu selections that you choose so that a series of actions can be completed
in one step.
