Computer Science Case Study 2012


Recommended Posts

Hello there!

Use this forum for questions and discussion on the Computer Science case study for the 2012/2013 examination sessions: SMARTPHONES.

I don't have a list of predicted questions, but I will keep posting the questions as I get them from my teacher.

Please keep this forum going and post some helpful suggestions.

I've got a list of predicted questions from the OCC, they are:

1.A common means of communication in smart phones is through Bluetooth. Outline how piconets work. [6 marks]

2.Outline the reasons and precautions one must take to prevent data loss in smart phones? (6)

3.Outline how experts in the medical profession would make use of smart phones. (4)

4.Describe social effects of smart phones. (5)

5.Identify meaning of PIM in the context of smart phones. (2)

6.Describe the GPS and how it developed in the generations of mobile phones. (4)

7.Explain the meaning of “ man in the middle attack”? (4)

8.Explain third generation mobile technology. (4)

9.Compare functionality and appearance aspects of two different interfaces available in smart phones. (5)

10.Explain with the help of an example the terms”revolution” and “evolution” with respect to new technologies. (5)

Apparently, a 'right' answer for a question would just get a C, (probably a 3-5). For a level 7, you need to talk about the technicalities, how things functions, advantages, disadvantages, safety precautions, social implications, etc. What has your teacher told you?
