69. The computer BIOS and device
firmware
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is a standard defining a
firmware interface. It is built into the PC.
Firmware is a term often used to denote the fixed, usually rather
small, programs and data structures that internally control various
electronic devices. It provides basic functionality to operate and
control the hardware connected to or built into the computer.
The primary function of the BIOS is to load and start an operating
system. When the PC starts up, the first job for the BIOS is to
initialize and identify system devices such as the video display card,
keyboard and mouse, hard disk, CD/DVD drive and other hardware.
The BIOS then locates software held on a peripheral device
(designated as a 'boot device'), such as a hard disk or a CD, and
loads and executes that software, giving it control of the PC.

firmware (example)
09/27/12 STID 1103 70
71. Utility software
Utility software is a kind of system software designed to help analyze,
configure, optimize and maintain the computer.
A single piece of utility software is usually called a utility or tool.
Example of utility softwares:
– Disk storage utilities ~ manage the storage like HDD, FDD, CD
– Disk defragmenters ~ detect computer files whose contents are broken across several locations
on the hard disk, and move the fragments to one location to increase efficiency.
– Disk partitions ~ divide an individual drive into multiple logical drives
– Backup utilities ~ make a copy of all information stored on a disk, and restore either the entire
disk or selected files
– Disk compression ~ compress/uncompress the contents of a disk, increasing the capacity of the
disk.
– Anti-virus utilities ~ scan for computer viruses.
– Registry cleaners ~ clean and optimize the Windows registry by removing old registry keys that
are no longer in use.
– Network utilities ~ analyze the computer's network connectivity, configure network settings, check
data transfer or log events.
09/27/12 STID 1103 71
72. Computer Language Translation
Programs
Convert programming languages into machine language.
Programs written in high-level language such as COBOL, C
must be translated into machine language that the computer
can execute
The program in high-level language before translation is called
source code.
A compiler translates source code into machine code called
object code
But some programming language do not use complier, but use
an interpreter
Interpreter used to translate each source code statement one at
a time into machine code during execution and executes it. It is
a bit slow to execute since it translated one statement at a time.
09/27/12 STID 1103 72
73. Application software
Also known as an application, is computer software
designed to help the user to perform singular or
multiple related specific tasks.

worksheet, which manipulates lines and numbers and to do
calculation and is used to create charts, graph and table.
It displays multiple cells that together make up a grid consisting
of rows and columns, each cell containing alphanumeric text,
numeric values or formulas.
A formula defines how the content of that cell is to be calculated
from the contents of any other cell (or combination of cells) each
time any cell is updated.

09/27/12 STID 1103 77
78. Programming languages
An artificial language designed to express computations
that can be performed by a machine, particularly a
computer.
Programming languages can be used to create programs
that control the behavior of a machine, to express
algorithms precisely, or as a mode of human
communication.
Many programming languages have some form of written
specification of their syntax (form) and semantics
(meaning).
It can be divided into:
– Low-level programming languages
– High-level programming languages
–
09/27/12 Very high-level programming languages
STID 1103 78
79. Low-level Programming
languages
A programming language that provides little or no
abstraction from a computer's instruction set
architecture.
The word "low" refers to the small or nonexistent
amount of abstraction between the language and
machine language; because of this, low-level
languages are sometimes described as being "close
to the hardware."
Low-level programming languages are sometimes
divided into two categories:
– first generation
– second generation.
09/27/12 STID 1103 79
80. First Generation Languages
The first-generation programming language, or
1GL also known as Machine Language, is
machine code.
It is the only language a microprocessor can
process directly without a previous
transformation.
Using binary code ( 1 and 0 )
Programming in machine language is very slow,
labor-intensive process
– Example : 1010 1101 8B54 2408 83FA 0077
09/27/12 STID 1103 80
81. Second Generation Languages
2GL, is assembly language, developed in 1950s that resembles
machine language but substitutes mnemonics for numeric codes.
( example: load, sum).
It is considered a second-generation language because while it is not a
microprocessor's native language, an assembly language programmer
must still understand the microprocessor's unique architecture (such as
its registers and instructions).
These simple instructions are then assembled directly into machine
code.
The assembly code can also be abstracted to another layer in a similar
manner as machine code is abstracted into assembly code.
Difficult to read, debug and learn and costly in term of programmers
time
Example:
– mov edx, [esp+8], cmp edx, 0, ja @f, mov eax, 0, ret
09/27/12 STID 1103 81
82. High-level Programming
languages
A programming language with strong abstraction from the
details of the computer.
It may use natural language elements, be easier to use, or be
more portable across platforms.
Such languages hide the details of CPU operations such as
memory access models and management of scope.
It makes the language user-friendly.
Can be divided into:
– 3rd Generation language
– 4th Generation language
09/27/12 STID 1103 82
83. 3rd Generation Language
Specify instructions as brief statements
that are more like natural language than
assembly language.
Easier to write and understand in
comparison of assembly language.
More user friendly
Example: FORTRAN, COBOL,BASIC,
Pascal Lisp and C
09/27/12 STID 1103 83
84. 4th generation Languages
A programming language that can be employed directly by end
user or less skilled programmers to develop computer
applications more rapidly than conventional programming
languages (nonprocedural or less).
Use for the development of commercial business software
Seven categories of 4th generation languages
– Query languages
– Report generators
– Graphics languages
– Application generators
– Very high level programming languages
– Application software packages
– PC tools
E.g. LINC (Logic and Information Network Compiler), Oracle
Express 4GL.
09/27/12 STID 1103 84
85. Very High-level Programming
languages
A programming language with a very high level of abstraction,
used primarily as a professional programmer productivity tool.
Very high-level programming languages are usually limited to a
very specific application, purpose, or type of task.
For this reason, very high-level programming languages are
often referred to as goal-oriented programming languages.
Example: 5th Generation Language
09/27/12 STID 1103 85
86. 5th Generation Languages
A programming language based around
solving problems using constraints
given to the program, rather than using
an algorithm written by a programmer.
Used mainly in artificial intelligence
research.
E.g. Prolog, OPS5 (Official Production
System), and Mercury
09/27/12 STID 1103 86
87. Firmware
Low-level software often stored on electrically programmable
memory devices.
Fixed, usually small programs and data structures that internally
control various electronic devices.
Examples of devices containing firmware range from end-user
products such as remote controls or calculators, through
computer parts and devices like hard disks, keyboards, TFT
screens or memory cards, all the way to scientific
instrumentation and industrial robotics.
Also more complex consumer devices, such as mobile phones,
digital cameras, synthesizers, etc., contain firmware to enable
the device's basic operation as well as implementing higher-
level functions.
09/27/12 STID 1103 87
88. Device Drivers
A device driver or software driver is a computer
program allowing higher-level computer
programs to interact with a hardware device.
Control parts of computers such as disk drives,
printers, CD drives, or computer monitors.
Acts as a translator between a hardware device
and the applications or operating systems that
use it.
