INTRODUCTION
 Information technology is the Use of computers in order to store, retrieve, transmit and
manipulate the data and information via internet.
 It can be used in the context of business and other enterprise which can be considered
as a subset of the Information and communication technology. This can be often used to
exchange the data and information to the large number of people across the world.
 It will help in describing about the types of computers. The present report will provide
classification of the commuters according to the different size and scope of the system.
It will also helps in describing the importance of internet in individual as well as in the
business.
 It will provide the importance of internet in the lives of individual as well as business
contaxt

TASK 1
Classification of computers with their Applications in Real World
A computer is a machine which can be programmed to manipulate the data and
information. It helps in responding a specific set of instructions in a well-defined manner.
Computers may vary according to their sizes and scope. The computers can also helpful in
performing the complex and repetitive procedure quickly, precisely and reliably. These are
modern computers which that are electronic and digital and also performs various
operations via wires, transistors and circuits which are commonly called as hardware. The
instruction and data can be called as software. All general purpose computers contains the
following components such as input device, output device, storage, CPU and Mass storage
devices. These computers can be classified into various different categories:

Continue..
 Super computers
 These computers are very expensive, fast and most powerful computers
which are mainly optimized to execute large number of programs. This allows the super
computers to execute such programs at very high speed. These computers are very
costly and therefore generally can be used at high places such as scientific laboratories.
Super computers are very large in sizes.
 Mainframe
 These computers are also large and expensive in nature and these systems are
capable of supporting hundreds or thousands of users simultaneously. Mainframe
computers are mostly used by the governments and large organization which allws
them to store bulk of data and operations. These are comparatively smaller then then
super computers.

Continue..
 Mini computers
 These are mid sized computers which are mainly ranked below mainframe
computers in terms of sizes and power. These are the multi processing system which
which is capable of supporting mainly 4 to 200 users ate the same time.
 Micro computers
 These computers are typically called as personal computers which are mainly
designed to be used by one user at one time. These computers are generally used at
residents and they are most common types of computers. It costs less then all the above
type sof computers.

TASK 2
Evaluate the Growth of ICT which have transformed the way in which business
interact with various stakeholders.
Information communication technology can assists the individuals, business and
organization in using the information. It is mainly concerned with the digital data storage,
retrieval and transmission. This makes the business more efficient, effective and promptly
responds to customer needs. Uses of ICT in business context are as follows:

Continue..
 It helps in improving the current performance of the business.
 Business growth and innovation can be derived with the use of information
communication technology.
 It also allows the business in accessing the designing and manufacturing needs of the
business.
 It also covers the topics related to financial, economic and technological aspects and
facilitates the wide range of services and transactions such as online bookings and
services.

TASK 3
Importance of internet in individual as well as in business context
 Inter have provided many ways for the people to deal with the growing
technological world and it allows in users to perform the automated work which allows
them to increase the efficiency of operations. Role of internet in individual life is as
follows:
 Internet can be useful in increasing one skills understanding and knowledge in any
field.
 It allows the users to perform different operations efficiently and effectively.
 It has almost changed the lifestyle of the people.

Continue..
 Internet allows the individual in providing the resources and information which makes
them more aware and informative about the use of products and services from different
organization.
 Internet has also contributed towards the business in following ways:
 Internet offered various software which allow the managers to employ the automatized
machinery to carry out the operations.
 Internet allows the business to access the performance of the company.

Continue..
 It helps in maximizing the efficiency of the firm and allows the
managers to carry out the operations of the business more
accurately.
 It allows the business to create the effective strategies which
contributes towards successful development of the firm.
 It allows them to manage the business in a effective way and helps in
improvising the productivity and performance of the staff members
within the company.

CONCLUSION
 It has been concluded that Information technology can be used for the effective and
efficient functioning of the business.
 Also it has been described that Internet has changed the way people work in order to
improve the performance of the business.
 Also, it helped in exploring various different types of computers which helped in
storing and manipulating the data of the organization.
