 Hardware
 Software
 People
 Procedures
 Data / Information
2. When one computer system is set up to communicate with another computer system, connectivity becomes the sixth system element. In other words, the manner, in which the various individual systems are connected - for example, by phone lines, microwave transmission, or satellite –is an element of the total computer system.

Composite Materials
Materials have different properties, like being strong or transparent. Composite materials are made by weaving, using molds, or fixing two materials together. They have the best properties of both materials. Composite materials are very light and very strong, so we use them to make things like fishing rods, tennis rackets, and planes.
Some composite materials are made of plastic, glass, or metal fibers. You can weave them into special clothes. Some of these clothes are stronger than steel. They protect police officers from people with weapons, and they protect firefighters from fires.
