Give a concise definition of a computer network. ANIC is vital when connecting computers in a network. 3.2.1 Briefly explain the role performed by a NIC in terms of a network. 3.2.2 How does a NIC for wireless network differ from a NIC for a cabled network? 3.2.3. The ex-students notice that NIC for the PC’s are advertised in 1OMbps/ 100Mbs and 1000Mbps. Explain what these specifications refer to and why there seem to be three different specifications for the same item. The ex-students are worried that by implementing a cabled network, the cables lying around may pose a safety problem. Besides cabling suggest another way in which the PC’s can be linked together?

Differentiate between “Notifications” and “Push Technology”. 3.8 What is Blogging and Microblogging? Total = Question 4 Solution and application development 4.1 The ex-students did some research into the cost of the Intel “i-range” computers and found that they fell into one of three price categories according to the following table: PRICE RANGE PROCESSOR R3000 ~ R5000 13 R5001 - R8000 15 R8001 - R12000 7 A programmer created a program in which a budget amount for a single machine can be entered and the program outputs the best processor that can be purchased for that amount. If the budget amount entered is below R3000 a message “you cannot afford an i-processor” is displayed. Write a CASE STATEMENT algorithm segment that would provide a solution to the above problem. 4.2. Network consultants will be hired to offer assistance to learners and staff who will use the centre. They will be paid at a rate of R100 per hour payable at the end of the week based on the total number of hours worked from Monday to Friday.

The user enters the number -3 (negative three) when prompted to enter the number of hours worked. What will the impact of this input be on the execution of the program based on this algorithm? Explain your answer. (2) The user types in the phrase ‘FIVE HOURS' when prompted to enter the number of hours worked. What type of error (Syntax/Runtime) will occur? When the program is executed and the user enters a valid number when prompted to enter the number of hours worked, the payments are calculated and displayed incorrectly. This is the result of TWO logical errors in the given algorithm. Explain, in general, what a logical error is. (2) Explain how to correct EACH of the TWO logical errors in the given algorithm. In your answer make use of the line numbers to refer to the statements in the algorithm. 4.3 Calculations based on computer specifications and salaries for employees were an essential part of budget discussion, Arrays were suggested as a way of storing the data for manipulation prog rammatically.

The librarian wants to use an electronic system to keep track of stock and the borrowing of books by learners. This will require that all the stock and learners details need to be captured into a database. Give TWO possible consequences of the library losing its data if the data was not backed up. An electronic system is exposed to many threats. Explain how a worm can pose a threat to your data. Explain the implications if your computer is infected by spyware. State TWO ways in which the librarian can make mistakes that will result in the loss of data. List TWO ways in which hardware related issues can lead to a loss of data. Explain the difference between a full backup and an incremental backup. Data captured into a computer system need to be vatidated and verified. Differentiate between data validation and data verification. When recording the details of books, two fields [the category (fiction, non-fiction) and the subject classification [English, Afrikaans, History, General Knowledge, ..] needs to be captured.
