Learn about how sounds are represented in a computer system including how analogue sound waves are converted into binary. Also, learn about sample rate, bit depth and metadata. Based on the 2020 Eduqas (WJEC) GCSE specification. 4.7: Sound Representation Exam Board: Eduqas / WJEC Specification: 2020 + Converting Analog Sound to Binary To store sound on a computer analog sound waves must be converted in to digital data ( binary ). The sound is sampled using an ADC (Analog to Digital Convertor) and stored as a binary value (such as 01010011) called a sample . 0010 1011 0101 0101 Analog sound wave ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) Binary sample Sampling an Analog Sound Wave Digital sampling is discrete (separate) and not continuous like analog waves. To get the highest quality sound, many samples are taken to recreate the analog wave as closely as possible . Sample Rate The sample rate is the number of samples taken per second . It is measured in kilohertz (kHz), for example CD quality is 44.1kHz (44,100 samples per second). The higher the sample rate , the better the audio quality as the digital data more closely resembles an analog wave . However, higher sample rates result in larger file sizes because more data is stored for each individual sample. A low sample rate will result in a low-quality sound because the digital data does not closely resemble the original analog wave . A higher sample rate will result in a higher-quality sound because the digital data more closely resembles the original analog wave . Improving Audio Quality Bit Depth Bit Rate The bit rate is defined as the amount of audio data processed per second . It is measured in kilobytes per second (kbps ). The bit rate is calculated by multiplying the sample rate and bit depth . Because the bit rate is the measure of the sample rate and bit depth multiplied together, the higher the bit rate the higher the quality of the sound . The bit depth is the number of bits available to represent each sample . For example, a sample with a bit depth of 4 could be 0101 or 0111 or 1010. A sample with a bit depth of 8 could be 01010110 or 1010110 or 11001111. A common bit depth is 16 bits . The higher the bit depth , the more bits are available to be used for each sample. Therefore the quality is often higher as the wave more closely resembles an analog wave . The file size will also be larger if the bit depth is higher, as each sample stores additional bits . Example: A short audio sample has a bit depth of 4 and a sample rate of 10 samples per second . The clip is 15 seconds long . Calculate the bit rate by multiplying the sample rate and bit depth : 4 bits x 10 = 40 bits . Now that is the correct data for one second. Multiply the bit rate by the number of seconds in the file: 40 x 15 = 600 bits . To convert the answer from bits to bytes , divide by 8 . 600 bits ÷ 8 = 75 bytes . Calculating File Size Metadata for Sound Files Music libraries such as Apple Music or Spotify store a huge amount of metadata on each song. Metadata is additional data about a file such as: Artist Title / Track Title Product / Album Title Track Number Date Created / Year Genre Comments Copyright Software Type Duration File size Bit rate Sampling rate Channels Volume Q uesto's Q uestions 4.7 - Sound Representation: 1.

Learn about methods of protecting data physically including biometrics, security staff and locks. Based on the 2016 OCR Cambridge Technicals Level 3 IT specification for Unit 2 (Global Information). 6.5 - Physical Protection Exam Board: OCR Specification: 2016 - Unit 2 RFID & Tokens Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to attach tags to physical objects . RFID tags can be embedded within 'dumb' objects such as clothing, packages and even animals. RFID is used with security tokens (such as an ID keycard ) to permit the access of authorised people to certain areas. RFID can be used by IT companies to track equipment and manage access . Shredding This is the cutting up of documents (paper or CDs ) into small pieces so that they cannot be reassembled and read. Sensitive data on paper or optical disc should be shredded when no longer required. Locks A lock can be used to prevent access to server rooms or sensitive data stores . Only authorised personnel with the right key will have access. Physical Security Measures Backup Backups should be taken regularly and stored at a secure location away from the main site. Backups could also be stored on cloud servers so that any damage to the organisation's building will not affect the backup as well. Biometrics Biometric devices require the input of a human characteristic (such a fingerprint , iris or voice scan ). The biometric data is checked against previously inputted data in a database . A match will allow access to the user. Security Staff Staff may be employed to physically prevent unauthorised people from accessing certain areas of a building where sensitive information is stored. They may check ID keycards or use surveillance like CCTV to monitor who is entering and exiting a secure area. Q uesto's Q uestions 6.5 - Physical Protection: 1.

Learn about different types of operating systems and the various roles that they manage, including memory, security and processing. Based on the 2016 OCR Cambridge Technicals Level 3 IT specification. 2.4: Operating Systems Exam Board: OCR Specification: 2016 - Unit 1 An operating system (OS) is software that manages the resources of a computer system . The operating system is loaded by the BIOS (Basic Input / Output System). Types of Operating System Single user operating systems are found on most desktop computers, laptops and tablets where only one person will use the device at a single time. Multi-user operating systems allow more than one user to access the processor simultaneously , such as a server that users, with correct permissions , can access remotely . However, one user should not be negatively impacted by another user on the same operating system and security must be managed carefully as data may be visible to other users . Single Processor operating systems have only a single processor (CPU), which is shared between users by dividing the CPU time into time-slices and allocating one of these to each user in turn. The time-slices are very short, giving each user the impression that their programs are running continuously. Multiple Processor operating systems have more than one processor (CPU). Users still have to share processors and it is a more complicated system but performance is improved as there are fewer users per processor. Some supercomputers have thousands of processors running in parallel. Operating systems can also be off-the-shelf , open-source or bespoke . See 2.1 . What are the roles of an Operating System? Manage Input / Output Devices Receives data from input devices (e.g. a keyboard). Sends data to output devices (e.g. a monitor) in the correct format . Manage Printing Checks the printer is free then uses spooling (storing data in a queue ) to print documents in order. Manage Backing (Secondary) Storage Ensures data is stored correctly and can be retrieved from secondary storage devices (e.g. hard drive / SSD ). Organises files in a hierarchical structure. Manage Memory (RAM) Ensures that programs / data do not corrupt each other and are stored in correct memory locations . Manage Processes Ensures different processes can utilise the CPU and do not interfere with each other or crash. On most OS the tasks appear to run simultaneously . Manage Security Allows users to create, manage and delete user accounts with different permissions. Allows users to logon and change passwords . User Interface The final function of an operating system is to provide a user interface . This includes: A folder and file system is displayed and manipulated allowing for copying , searching , sorting and deleting data. Icons are displayed to represent shortcuts to applications and files. Multiple windows can be opened at the same time and switched between. The interface can be customised , such as changing font sizes and the desktop background . System settings can be accessed such as network and hardware options .

Learn about the risks of storing and processing data, including accidental deletion and hacking. Based on the 2016 OCR Cambridge Technicals Level 3 IT specification for Unit 2 (Global Information). 6.2 - Risks Exam Board: OCR Specification: 2016 - Unit 2 Unauthorised Access to Data As part of the security principle of confidentiality , data should only be viewed by individuals with the authorisation to do so. There are two main reasons why data may be viewed by someone who shouldn't - espionage and poor information management . Espionage is the act of collecting data so that it can be used against an organisation - such as a competitor acquiring information about their rival's product before it is launched publicly. If a company has poor information management strategies in place and data is insecurely stored or too many people have access to sensitive information then it is more likely to be viewed by unauthorised persons. Not only would competitors benefit from unauthorised access, but the Data Protection Act (2018 ) would also be broken if personal data was accessed . Accidental Loss of Data Data loss refers to information being irretrievably lost - not just a copy of the file but the original version too so it cannot be accessed in any format . One reason for accidental data loss is equipment failure or a technical error that leads to data corruption , such as a database crash or hard drive failure. Human error is another reason for accidental data loss as an employee might accidentally delete a file or discard an important paper document without realising. If data is accidentally lost then it could mean that hours of data entry and collection will have been for nothing and might delay dependent processes such as analysis and trend recognition. Also, if it was personal data that was lost then the security principle of availability has been broken and the Data Protection Act ( 2018 ) has been breached . Intentional Destruction of Data This is the act of purposely damaging an organisation by deleting or denying access to data . Examples include viruses that corrupt data so that it can no longer be used and targeted malicious attacks such as DDOS (distributed denial of service) attacks or ransomware . Ransomware encrypts files so that they can only be accessed again when certain criteria have been met, usually the affected group having to pay an extortionate fee . When data is intentionally deleted the organisation in question can respond by replacing the data and any infected computer systems / devices or by ignoring the loss and not making the breach public - but having to re-collect / re-analyse the data. Data destruction will usually lead to a loss of reputation as customers won't want to have their information stored in a system they see as unreliable and insufficiently protected . This loss of reputation could lead to customer loss and a decrease in profits . If the loss is ignored and unreported then it could result in a huge loss of trust when it is eventually revealed - like Yahoo who only confirmed a massive data breach that happened in 2013, two years later in 2016. This breach affected all 3,000,000,000 Yahoo accounts and is the largest data breach in the history of the internet. Intentional Tampering with Data This is when data is changed and no longer accurate . This could occur through fraudulent activity such as hacking to change information displayed on a webpage. An example is if a student or a teacher changed exam answers for a better grade. A business example is if a company tampered with financial data to display larger profits and smaller losses than real figures, to boost investment or please stakeholders. If data tampering is found out then it can result in a loss of reputation as that organisation cannot be trusted to report data accurately . If personal data has been altered then the security principle of integrity will have been broken as the data is no longer accurate . Data security methods and protection systems will also need to be reviewed if data has been tampered with, especially if it was an external individual that accessed and changed the data. Employees that tamper with data will be fired and may face legal action . Q uesto's Q uestions 6.2 - Risks: 1. Describe two effects on an organisation for each of the four identified risks . [8 ] 2. Research at least one real-life example for each risk above and describe the consequences of that example, such as the Yahoo data breach. [12 ] 6.1 - Security Principles Topic List 6.3 - Impacts

Learn about the eight roles of an operating system including CPU management, security, managing interrupts and the user interface. Based on the 2020 Eduqas (WJEC) GCSE specification. 6.1: Operating Systems Exam Board: Eduqas / WJEC Specification: 2020 + What is an Operating System? An operating system (OS ) is software that helps to manage the resources of a computer system . There are eight main roles of an operating system: Manage the CPU A critical role of the OS is to manage the CPU so that applications and processes can be run efficiently . The CPU is effectively managed by performing three further roles: Manage Memory (RAM) The OS reserves memory space in RAM for stored programs to be copied into. The FDE cycle is executed continuously to carry out the instructions. The OS also ensures that programs are appropriately managed so that data is stored in correct memory locations and not corrupted . Manage Interrupts A interrupt is an alert signal sent to the CPU when an application or hardware device requires immediate attention . The OS must efficiently manage interrupts so that a problem can be dealt with quickly if one occurs. Manage Multi-Tasking The OS manages tasks so instructions can be executed by the CPU in turn - this is called scheduling . The OS prevents processes from interfering with others and crashing. Tasks should appear to run simultaneously even though only one process can be executed at a time. Manage Backing Store The backing store is another term for secondary storage devices such as the magnetic hard disk drive , optical drives or solid state memory sticks. The OS ensures data is stored correctly and can be efficiently retrieved from the backing store. Files are organised in a hierarchical (logical) structure . Manage Peripherals A peripheral is an external device connected to a computer system to input or output data . The OS manages the receiving of data from input devices (such as a keyboard or mouse) and the transfer of data to output devices (such as a monitor or speaker). Manage Security The OS allows users to create, manage and delete accounts with different permissions. It also permits multiple users to log in and change passwords . Antivirus and firewall software is managed by the OS as well as some data encryption processes. Manage the User Interface The final function of an operating system is to provide a user interface , allowing a human to interact with the computer system . The way in which a user can navigate a computer system is known as human-computer interaction ( HCI ). Graphical User Interface (GUI) The most common type of user interface is a graphical user interface (GUI ) which can be presented in the following ways: Icons are displayed to represent shortcuts to applications and files. Multiple windows can be opened at the same time and switched between. A folder and file system is displayed and manipulated allowing for copying , searching , sorting and deleting data. The interface can be customised , such as changing font sizes and the desktop background . The taskbar allows shortcuts to be pinned for quick access . Menus can be opened from the Start button to display files and shortcuts. System settings can be accessed such as network and hardware options . Q uesto's Q uestions 6.1 - Operating Systems: 1.

Menu-Driven interface [ 4 ] d. Voice-Driven interface [ 4 ] Command-Line Interface Other types of user interface do exist, such as a command-line interface (CLI ). This type of interface is entirely text-based and requires users to interact with the system by typing commands . This is a complicated process and mistakes could easily accidentally delete data. There are many commands to learn so only experts who have been trained t o learn this interface will be able to efficiently make use of it. Menu-Driven Interface A menu-driven interface displays data in a series of linked menus . Examples include cash machines (ATMs) and old iPods . This type of interface is generally user friendly and easy to use as commands do not need to be memorised. However it can be annoying to find specific data through a large number of menus without a search feature. Touch-Sensitive Interface Another type of user interface is a touch-sensitive interface , used with smartphones and tablets . A human interacts with the device by pressing on a touchscreen , making it very intuitive and suitable for most users without training. Touch-sensitive interfaces may not work with dirty or wet fingers and it will take longer to write text compared to using a keyboard. Voice-Driven Interface A voice-driven interface can be controlled by speaking commands aloud to a listening device. Examples include Amazon's Alexa devices, Apple's Siri technology and Google Home . This interface is intuitive , can be used hands-free and helps to speed up processes . However commands may be misheard or limited in what can be performed. 5.1 - Data Structures Theory Topics 6.2 - Utility Software

Learn about how to convert between the denary (decimal), binary and hexadecimal number systems. Also learn about binary shfits. Based on the J277 OCR GCSE Computer Science specification (first taught from 2020 onwards). 2.4a: Number Storage Exam Board: OCR Specification: J277 What is binary? By now you should know that computer systems process data and communicate entirely in binary . Topic 2.3 explained different binary storage units such as bits (a single 0 or 1), nibbles (4 bits) and bytes (8 bits). Binary is a base 2 number system. This means that it only has 2 possible values - 0 or 1 . What is denary? Denary (also known as decimal ) is the number system that you've been using since primary school. Denary is a base 10 number system. This means that it has 10 possible values - 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 . How to convert from binary to denary: How to convert from denary to binary: Binary & Denary What is hexadecimal? Hexadecimal is a base 16 number system. This means that it has 16 possible values - 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F . Hexadecimal is used as a shorthand for binary because it uses fewer characters to write the same value . This makes hexadecimal less prone to errors when reading or writing it , compared to binary. For example, 100111101011 in binary is 9EB in hexadecimal. Hexadecimal only uses single-character values. Double-digit numbers are converted into letters - use the table on the right to help you understand. How to convert from binary to hexadecimal: How to convert from hexadecimal to binary: Hexadecimal Converting from denary to hexadecimal / hexadecimal to denary To convert from denary to hexadecimal or the other way round you must convert to binary first . Denary > Binary > Hexadecimal Hexadecimal > Binary > Denary Use the videos on this page if you need help converting to or from binary. The most common number systems question in exams are from denary to hexadecimal or from hexadecimal to denary so make sure that you practice these conversions. Binary Addition Binary addition is a method of adding binary values without having to convert them into denary. How to add binary numbers: What is an overflow error? An overflow error occurs when a binary value is too large to be stored in the bits available . With a byte (8 bits ) the largest number that can be held is 255 . Therefore any sum of two binary numbers that is greater than 255 will result in an overflow error as it is too large to be held in 8 bits . What is binary shift? Binary shift is used to multiply and divide binary numbers . The effect of shifting left is to multiply a binary number. The effect is doubled by each place that is shifted . x The effect of shifting right is to divide a binary number. ÷ Shifting by 1 has an effect of 2 . Shifting by 2 has an effect of 4 . Shifting by 3 has an effect of 8 . For example, shifting left by 2 places has an effect of multiplying by 4 . Another example: Shifting right by 3 places has an effect of diving by 8 .

Learn about the three logical operators - NOT, AND and OR - as well as truth tables. Based on the J277 OCR GCSE Computer Science specification (first taught from 2020 onwards). 4.1: Boolean Logic Exam Board: OCR Specification: J277 What is a logical operator? Inside of each computer system are millions of transistors . These are tiny switches that can either be turned on (represented in binary by the number 1 ) or turned off (represented by 0 ). Logical operators are symbols used to represent circuits of transistors within a computer. The three most common operators are: NOT AND OR What is a truth table? Truth tables are used to show all possible inputs and the associated output for each input . The input and output values in a truth table must be a Boolean value - usually 0 or 1 but occasionally True or False. NOT AND OR A NOT logical operator will produce an output which is the opposite of the input . NOT is also known as Negation . The symbol for NOT is ¬ An AND logical operator will output 1 only if both inputs are also 1 . AND is also known as Conjunction . The symbol for AND is ∧ An OR logical operator will output 1 if either input is 1 . OR is also known as Disjunction . The symbol for OR is ∨ NOT Logic Gate AND Logic Gate Symbol OR Logic Gate Symbol Truth Table Truth Table Truth Table Multiple Operators Exam questions could ask you complete truth tables that use more than one logical operator . Work out each column in turn from left to right and look carefully at which preceding column you need to use. NOT B A AND NOT B A OR (A AND NOT B) As binary is a base-2 number system , the number of rows required in a truth table will double with each new input in the expression in order to show the unique combinations of inputs. The examples above use just two inputs (A + B) so 4 rows are required. e.g. A = 2 rows / A + B = 4 rows / A, B + C = 8 rows / A, B, C + D = 16 rows Logic Diagrams You may be asked in an exam to d raw a logic diagram when given a logical expression . Draw any NOT symbols or expressions in brackets first. A logic diagram for C = ¬A ∧ B A logic diagram for D = C ∨ (A ∧ B) Q uesto's Q uestions 4.1 - Boolean Logic: 1.

Test your understanding of data types, calculations and modulo. Try practice tasks and learn through text and images. Perfect for students learning GCSE Computer Science in UK schools. top Python - Section 3 Practice Tasks Task One: Square Number Create a program that asks the user to input a number and then prints the square of that number - to do this, multiply the number by itself . Remember: Break up variables and parts of a sentence in a print line by using commas. Example solutions: Enter a number: 12 The square of 12 is 144 Enter a number: 7 The square of 7 is 49 Task Two: Multiplying Numbers X Example solutions: Create a program that asks the user to input two numbers (num1 and num2 ). Multiply the two numbers together and print the total . Remember: Break up integer variables in a print line by using commas between each part of the sentence. Enter number one: 7 Enter number two: 9 7 x 9 = 63 Enter number one: 8 Enter number two: 12 8 x 12 = 96 Task Three: Turning 65 Example solutions: Create a program to input how old the user will turn this year and then print the year they will turn 65 . You could do this in just two lines but before trying that work out on paper the steps to calculating your own age you will turn 65. What steps did you take? Try to recreate those steps in Python. You might need to create another variable to make it easier. How old will you turn this year? 15 You will turn 65 in 2073 How old will you turn this year? 42 You will turn 65 in 2046 Task Four: Multiplication Table Let the user enter a number then print the first five multiplications in its times table. This can be done more simply when you learn about for loops but for now you will need to multiply the number by 1 , then multiply it by 2 etc. Try to make this program better by displaying the number and the value it is multiplied by in your print statements. Simple example solution: Enter a number: 8 8 16 24 32 40 Better example solution: Enter a number: 7 7 x 1 = 7 7 x 2 = 14 7 x 3 = 21 7 x 4 = 28 7 x 5 = 35 ⬅ 3b - Simple Calculations 4a - If Statements ➡
