1What is a computer system?
- AA combination of hardware and software components that allow input, processing
and output of data. - BHardware and software that do not not allow data.
- AA combination of hardware and software components that allow input, processing
2What is Hardware ?
- AThe physical components that make up a computer system.
- BThe programs that run on a computer system.
3What is Software?
- AThe programs that run on a computer system.
- BThe physical components that make up a computer system.
4What are input devices?
- AHardware that accepts data into the computer. They take real world analogue
data and convert it into a digital form that can be stored on a computer. For
example: keyboard, mouse, microphone, webcam, scanner, sensors. - BHardware that presents the results of processing to the user or actuators that
perform a task automatically. They use digital data from a computer and produce
it in a form that is understandable or usable. For example: monitors, printers,
speakers, projectors, actuators (motors).
- AHardware that accepts data into the computer. They take real world analogue

6What is a storage device?
- AHardware that is used to store files long term and is non-volatile, such as hard
disks, memory sticks, magnetic tapes and CDs. - BHardware that is used to store fi;es short erm and is not very volatile such as hard disks,memory sticks,magnetic disks and Cds
- AHardware that is used to store files long term and is non-volatile, such as hard
7What is Reliability?
- AHow far you can depend on the computer system being available when you need
it. Usually measured in terms of availability. - BThe way the device works and how long for.
- AHow far you can depend on the computer system being available when you need
8What is Availability?
- AThe proportion of time that a system is operational, usually expressed as a
percentage over a period of time. E.g. 95% measured over one year. - BA group of computer systrems measured by the amount of time.Eg 3 years
- AThe proportion of time that a system is operational, usually expressed as a
9Mean Time Between Failure: a measure of availability often quoted by hardware
manufacturers. For example 2.56 years between failures means that, on average,
the hardware can be expected to last 2.56 years before it goes wrong.- AVerdadero

10Spare hardware components are built into a system so that, in the event of a
component failing, the system can swap over to the spare one.This is called System Failure- AVerdadero

11Spare hardware components are built into a system so that, in the event of a
component failing, the system can swap over to the spare one.This is called redundancy- AVerdadero
- BFalso
12Where a company has plans to replace a system quickly if there is a catastrophe
(fire, fl ood, bomb etc). Designed to minimise the time the system is down.What is this called?- ADisaster recovery
