1.2 PURPOSE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF KEY COMPUTER COMPONENTS IN THE EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT.

The editorial department of Newspaper Company is the heart of Newspaper Company,

which responsible for publishing of news and making editing of the news by using

computing device in carryout their activities. The department has many staffs and each

has his own responsibility. The staffs are typewriters who are responsible for type in the

department. The editors are responsible for editing the collecting news and the

department is control by the chief executive editor. The editor is assisted by lead

writers, columnists, cartoonists, photographers, reference librarians and others to bring

out the publication in a correct manner. The entire editorial use the entire computer

component in carryout their activities.

Computer component: computer can be describe as an electronic device that consists

of circuit that gives permission to data manipulation in binary format. And computer is

divided into two component which are hardware and software component. The

hardware component are device user for storing and processing data, while software

component are those set of program that process data or an information. Example of

hardware component basically there are five major hardware component of computer

which are as follows.

1.2.1 Input device

1.2.2 Output device

1.2.3 Central processing unit

1.2.4 Primary storage device

1.2.5 Secondary storages device

1.2.1 INPUT DEVICES: Before computer can be able to accept data or process any

kind of information there must be an input device, in this contain there is need to

analyze talk time current input which is part of input of computer component that are

has a USB cable that can

be connected to the

system in order to

transfer the information

Scanner A scanner is an input

device which is capable of

scanning document e.g.

photography and pagers

of text into the system.

This can convert it into

digital form in order to

create electric view of the

document and can be

edited as well. This

company uses this device

as the major tool for

scanning the document

into the system. The type

1.2.2 OUTPUT DEVICES: These are useful hardware component of computer that enables

the user to see the processing data in the system. The main idea of output device on most

computers is through the computer's monitor, creating a pictorial representation of the

digital information from the computer system. Audio output is usual delivered from the

computer's sound card and speakers, and hard copies of data or information are output

which can be done via the computer's printer. Information can also be regard as an output

from the computer’s ports, for example, uploading music files to an MP3 player or other

device through USB

Table 2.2.1 Output Devices

Output devices Description Image

Monitor This is the most common

output device which gives out

the pictorial representation of

the information in words,

number or graphics. Talk

Time use monitor more than

any other output device, in

Talk time the use cathode ray

tube monitor with “1024 *

their task in the editorial department and this device has microprocessor that is use for

integrating the circuit. The cpu has millions of transistors, which has the speed of 2000

MHz and has the RAN of 4.77 MHZ.

Single core cpu. View from (www.plunches.com.)

1.2.4 STORAGE DEVICES: This device orders to process information, in order to

Performa this activity their two type of storage device in computer system which are the

temporary and permanent storage device. The temporary storage is the computer

memory used to hold information during processing.

Random access memory,(RAM). Permanent storage is the devices such as the hard

disk, which can store information long term, and is non-volatile, so information is stored

even without power. When information is required for processing, it is copied from the

hard drive to the computer's faster RAM, ready to send to the processor

RAM is use in Talk Time Company this company their computer system are use the

permanent memory as follows

2.1 CLIENT/SERVER AND DESKTOP USED IN DEVELOPING THE NETWORKING SYSTEMS

Network architecture system: This is the structural and logical layout of network which

has transmission facilities, software and communication protocol which is capable of

collecting of computer component and data and infrastructure (wire OR wireless)

transistors

2.2 CLIENT SERVER:Client-server this are set of computers that share network resources which act as a

server to each other over the network. In this system the computers operate

independently to the server in all the aspect. Client server architecture software

architecture can be said as the versatile and flexible in nowadays fast-changing IT

landscape. It can be said as modular in structure and relies on messaging services for

communication between components. This software were constructed or design to

enhance flexibility, usability, scalability, and interoperability. Software flexibility implies

the ability for a program to change simple way according to different users and different

system requirements. However, client–server architecture allows the roles and duties of

U1159349 Page 9

Page 10: Computer Base application

Computer Base Technology 2012

a computing system to be spread among several independent computers that are

known to each other only through a network. This creates an additional advantage to

this architecture: greater ease of maintenance. For example, it is possible to replace,

repair, upgrade, or even relocate a server while its clients remain both unaware and

unaffected by that change.

View (Rose India Technologies 2008)

2.3 Desktop: this is standalone system that represents desktop software application

that run single computer system whereby the computer stand as the server system and

is analyzed within the Klacwork developer tool and use in sharing information in

Klacwork server. And the computer system handles all data in the computer system

and maintains all the application in the system. which implement a set of network

protocol. Such protocols are a set of tools that allow the desktop computer not just to

access data elsewhere, but to participate in the computing milieu Much more intensely,

which use Microsoft processor, desktop application can also be call as those standalone

Computer Base Technology 2012

that flow of network can be done e.g. cable wires, radio wave, stellate, or infrared light

beam are this materials use can be implemented as follow.

The major network technology that are used are categories based on geographical

area that they supply network to which are as follows

Local area network (Lan)

Wide area network (wan)

Metropolitan network (man)

Local area network (lan) this can be said as computer network that connect computers

and other devices in a geometric place or an area, for instant like home, school, office

or any small business each computer system or any order device is called as NODE

which is capable of sharing program, printer OR hard disk.

Computer Base Technology 2012

Back up of files or any document is very simple

Demerit of local area network

Sever can develop mistake

It is very difficult to create security against hackers

It the network stop work it difficult or impossible to access other computers

Wide area network: this is large area networks that occupied almost a countries

network and almost the worlds at large which is using a communication channel or

which communicate with network that comprise of many kinds of media such as radio

waves and telephone lines.

A wan is almost the large network or which consist of two or more LANS connected

together, the internet is the world’s largest.

.

View(www.bbs.com)

Metropolitan area network (man): These network systems interconnect the computer

users in order to share the same resource in a region or geographical place or an area

which is at middle size of the LAN and wan. For instant, it is bigger than LAN but

U1159349 Page 13

Page 14: Computer Base application

Computer Base Technology 2012

smaller than the wan in terms of network capacity, which is user to interconnection in a

place into large single network.

Merit of metropolitan network (man)

Produce good back bone for other network systems

Produce smooth access to wan

It is more accurate to install an application by using the network system and copy

to the network of all system.

It has effective security which can give chance to use username and password

Demerit of metropolitan network

If there is error in the file sever it goes wrong or affect all the network system

Topology: this can be defined as the arrangement of network which is a computer

network which explains how the node in computer system works. Some common

network topologists are ring, star, line, three configuration and bus

Star topology: this is the topology that each device is connected in hud which helps to

connect multiple computer device together.

View (www.blogsport.com)

Ring topology: this topology is the system where by which node is connected to two or

more node in the system which can be visualized in a way of circular configuration.

Line or bus topology: this topology is arranged in linear manner, In a way that node is

connect to two node which differ from that of ring topology. Also bus topology is

connected in such a way that central bus which flow around the entire network and it

primarily use for LAN.

View (www.klibit.uk.ac)

Tree topology: this topology is arrange in such away a root connect to one another and

information pass from one node to another.

The suggestion network layout for Talk Time or network topology

In this case to use bus topology is more preferable because is recognize as the simplest

and primarily connection with local area network. Client can share idea or pass set of

information by the central cable which is regarded as the backbone of the network

system. This is the reason where only one transmitter can work at a time .However, the

Bus is capable of attaches to or detached from the network without distracting the

network system and bus is effective in connecting multiple clients together.

U1159349 Page 17

Page 18: Computer Base application

Computer Base Technology 2012

However, in Talk Time Company there are seven departments, in which every

department need to be connected to the network topology. In this case as earlier

suggested, bus topology is the best topology that can overcome the problem of Talk

Time Company.

Look at editorial department with five computers systems and a set of printer, scanner

connected in the bus topology network system and the administration department with

four set of computers using one printer and scanner device connected in the bus

topology. The accounting department with two set of computer printer and scanner

connected in the same line with storing department which has two set of computer and

one set of printer and scanner. The printing department is connected with two set of

computers and three printers and one scanner. The advertisement department and

circulation department in which the advertisement department has two set of computers

and printer and scanner , while the circulation department has two set of computers

printer and scanner all connected in one set of bus network topology and the bus

topology has a router that can enhance speedy of network.

Evaluate the performance of the proposed network infrastructure with other similar networks. [10%]

In evaluation the performance of the proposed network infrastructure with the other type

of network system. Bus topology which is one of the theoretical construct convey of

structure and shapes of the LAN. Bus as the proposed system is more capable of

overcoming the problems of the company and each department of the company which

will be listed below

It is generally analyzed that bus conform, suitable for temporary networking

system and bus topology is the simples and the cheapest topology to install than

star or any other type of network topology.

Bus is faster than ring in team of performance with low or nodes network traffic

but less compare to star.

Bus topology correspondence with lot of nodes network and high traffic network

than ring and the star has less correspondence than ring.

Bus topology it is more easier to troubleshoot than ring and lesser than star

topology

Bus topology it is more easier to setup and modify than that of ring but almost

equivalent to star topology

In terms of problem case by cable connection or nodes inefficiency case by

network. When bus topology experience failure when the cable of the bus is

affected total breakdown will occur, but has no effect in the case of node. While

in the case of ring topology the cable and the node failure only affect the node in

particular but the failure in the hub or the switch can case total breakdown of the

system

In terms of size bus topology is more suitable in a small business or an office

while the star topology is more suitable for big business or environment, in the

U1159349 Page 23

Technology was improved communication environment rapidly which proved tools and

method of carryout business effectively in communication environment or business

environment. This improvement comes from developing mobile computing device with

new with new method and upgrading the method in order to make business easy and

enhance market in many areas of it performance. E.g. by providing online network

website, wireless network, smartphones and international relationship

Online network website: The online network website proved service for customers

online by view the website. This online network website give changes for customers

who are subscribe but in some companies it is free to the general public. This service

gives chance to customer to view daily updating from the newspaper company and

make comment from the news posted and make friends and view the photo of the

event.

Wireless network: This network helps the client to work with flexible network and share

single internet network among several computers. With the help of wireless network

client can save and print file at any location because the printer can share network with

all computers connected. And can be save in the system view at any point of time and

sending of files is more flexible in wireless network than vie-email or burning to CD. The

major important of wireless network is that it prevents the capable accident that can

occur as result of connection.

Smartphones: This device was great function to offer to companies, which are a mobile

phone built with advance computing capacity which also has the feature of personal

digital assistant.in a company a newspaper company it helps in keeping event

organized, this can be done by setting remainder for a specific event and it create better

Functional requirement Description

File sharing Using LAN network system file can be

shared cross a particular environment by

using network which is more flexible and

efficient than using any other device e.g.

floppy disk, CD OR any other device for

sharing a particular information like photo,

music file and document. File sharing is

an important functional requirement that

LAN network most perform

Internet connection sharing Using of LAN network in an environment

give chance for internet connection

sharing within the environment by using

the same source of internet device. LAN

network can allow network sharing in

some small geographic area e.g. school,

office and houses

Printer sharing LAN network system helps

communication environment by proving

connectivity of system to share the same

printer device. This system proved simple

and cheap method of sharing printer

instead of using one per system

Internet telephone service Using LAN network system by using VoIP

service it give the chance for the users to

telephone call using LAN internet system,

which save financial resources

Uploading By using LAN network system user can

upload document be using the internet

service, which can be the format of music

file, photo, application software and any

other document.

Non-function requirement: this is the general performance or quality of a system or

the attribute of the system result which specify the external constraint that the service or

production is required to meet. In network environment there are certain non-functional

requirement that lead to sufficient telecommunication and networking which are as

follow.

Non-functional requirement Description

Security Security requirement is the ability to

secure the system from unauthorized

user to get access to the system and to

protect the system from malicious

damage and ensure the integrity of the

system from accidental damage. The

security of the system need to encrypt the
