  • Paper 01 - J277/01
    • Embedded Systems
      • Carryout a small number of functions - part of a larger system - normally stored in ROM (read only memory) typically a single processor or SOC(system on chip) e.g. washing machine, smart fridge, microwave
      • Self contained
    • System Architechture - unit 1
      • CPU
        • components
          • AW,CU,cashememory,Registers
            • Control unit = sends signals to different components in the CUP and rest of system (all other components or pc)
            • Cashe memory = very fast emmory in the CPU to store frequently used instructions or data
            • ALU = Arithmetic logic unit = calculations and logical comparisons
          • Registers = PL,MAR,MDR,ACC,CIR
            • program counter= address in= main memory, primory,ram, of next intstruction fetched
            • Memory address register = stores the address in = main memory, primary memory of the interuction to be fetched
            • Memory data register = stores the instruction that has been fetched from main memory.
            • ACC=accumulator = stores the result of any calculation or  logical comparison
            • Current instruction register = instruction to be executed
      • Storage
        • primary, main memory,RAM
          • Primary memory = programs/data, currently in use
          • Secondary e.g. HDD, SSD optical
            • Non- volatile long term storage of programs/data
              • storage mesured in Bytes,KB,Mb,Gb,Tb,Pb = step up from form below is 1000 of it.
      • Others
      • Fetch Decode Execute cycle
    • Networks
      • Threats
        • Malware : Worms,trojans,viruses,DoS,SQL injection
      • Types of networks
        • LAN
          • small geographical area
            • you own the hardware
        • WAN
          • 3RD party WAN links
          • Large geographical area
        • Topology
          • Mesh and Star
            • Mesh is all connected with infividual links
            • Star is all devicees connected to one switch
      • Protection
        • Anti-virus,Anti malware
      • Devices
        • NIC - network interface controller
        • Switches - make the LAN
        • WAP - wireless access points
        • Routers - Connect to internet/WAN
      • Protocols
        • WIreless : POP,IMAP,IP,TCP,VOIP,SMTP,FTP,HTTP,HTTPS
        • Ethernet  - wired
      • Network Architechture
        • Peer 2 Peer p2p
          • Equal
          • nothign manages the network
          • Security
            • Shaved files/data/access peripherals
          • Node > no access
        • Client/server c/s
          • Services
            • Print management,Authentication,File servers,web server,devices is known as a client
          • Server
            • +ves = maintains access to security > much easier to administer, manage, backups,software
            • -ves = no server - no service, expensive  - specialised hardware server
      • Packets
        • Broken into packets
          • Packet switching etc.
      • DNS
        • Domain name system
          • Website browser system, e.g. www.bbc.co.uk
            • DNS loop > match to the host/website IP address
              • DNS server > does a lookup, no match
              • Higher up DNS > websiteNotFound, returns ip address to the router
      • Cloud
        • SAAS
    • Software
      • Utilities
        • Enhance the OS maintenance functions
          • Disc defragmentation
            • Files become 'fragmented' HDD
            • 'de-frag' periodically move all the file fragment so they are continuous
          • Anti-vitus,firewall, compression software
      • System software
        • Operating system : Linux,MacOS,Windows
          • User interface
            • GUI
              • Everyone
                • Easy to use : point and click,drag and drop,windows,icon,memory,pointer
            • Command line interface (CLI)
              • Experts
          • Memory management
          • Multi tasking
          • File management
            • Virtual memory
              • When main memory|RAM is full, program is idle: program needs to be moved out of ram and into secondary storage to then free a space for other applications
