Classification of Computer By Application By Purpose By Size
The computer systems can be classified on the following basis: Based on Functionality/ Purpose Based on Performance/ Application Based on Size
General Purpose Computers • These Computers are use for general purpose everybody can use. • Most digital computers are general purposecomputers and used in business and commercial data processing. • These computers are designed to solve a large variety of problems.
SpecialPurpose Computers • These computers perform specific task. • These computers are used for special purpose to perform specific tasks. • Such as Supercomputers, Weather forecasting etc.
Analog Computer • Analog computers is basically measuring devices. • Analog computer measure continuous type of data such that, weight, electricity, speed etc and use physical quantity. • Analog computer are fast and does not store data. • Analog signals are represented with the sine waves
Analog Computer Continue • Analog computers does not give accurate result. • Analog computers are also special purpose computers.
Analog Computer Continue Speedo meter Clock Thermometer
DIGITAL COMPUTER • Digital computersare works on Digits 0,1. • Digital computers stores data. • These are faster or speedy than analog computers. • Digital signals are represented with square waves. • Digital computers give accurate result. • Digital computers are general purpose computers.
HYBRID COMPUTER • Hybrid computer is combination of Analog Computer and Digital Computer capabilities. • Hybrid has speed, accuracy and storage. • Hybrid computers are also special purpose computer. • It has require external force for run and result in digital format.
