Past, Present, and Future of Computers

RAM (Random Accesses Memory): RAM is used by CPU when a computer is running to store the information that it needs to be used very quickly but it does not store any information permanently.

a. By reading the file system’s directory information, which is stored on the storage device

Random Access Memory (RAM) - the storage of data and instructions inside the primary storage is temporary. It disappears from the RAM as soon as the power to the computer is

When the user begins to interact with the computer, the software being used will send out a system call that will specify a task that a hardware component must perform in order for the software to continue functioning and send further requests,

i) Memory : cache server (holds recently acesed web pages in its RAM, for spedier aces

Cache memory is the fastest memory outside of the CPU, runs at 10-30 ns per access.

RAM: RAM stands for Random Access Memory. It is a bit like a person's short-term memory. RAM is volatile so data only exists only when the computer is turned on, and is used by the operating system and other applications.

The Operating System manages the flow of data and tells the processor what component needs to be doing. It does this my relaying one piece of information at a time but done so fast it seems it is doing it all at the same time. It does this by giving the information to the processer in computer language, so it can understand.

Irregular Access memory is inside the PC which store the information and work with capacity memory to make lessen less and influence space for essential things to like record and documents in light of the fact that for individual protection.

Linux uses the virtual memory to free up private or anonymous pages used by a process. When a page is ‘taken off’ the physical memory, it is copied to the backing store, also sometimes named swap area. Linux uses the term ‘swapping’, which usually refers to swapping a whole process out from another, to describe ‘paging’, which is the swapping of the inactive pages of a process or processes.

The sw or store word does the reverse and stores the data in $t6 in the specified memory location.

Imagine that you are investigating a case where the suspect is believed to have deleted information from his or her computer that might be evidence. Where would you look for this evidence?

This information and instructions for the CPU are stored in Random Access Memory (RAM). This memory is the next hardware component for a bare bones PC referred to as the main memory. The CPU has direct access to any instructions for programs to be executed that are in the main memory and only in the main memory. The main memory is volatile which means it can only store data or instructions when the computer is powered on. The device that stores data when the PC is powered off is the hard drive. It is the computers primary method of storage. Another way it stores memory is through the floppy drive. This form of memory is removable.

Your hard drives are what store all of your data, ranging from your operating system to your documents, music, and movies. If the RAM is your computer's short-term memory, your hard drive is the long-term memory. It stores the things you want to keep around for a while.

Old in the days, computers were huge in size, hence, not that powerful and relatively slow when compared to computers nowadays. A computer is a complex electrical integrated circuit connects multiple of electrical components together. These components could be summarized in the following; transistors, resistors, capacitors, and diodes. Therefore, when it comes to high tech computers, revolutionary quality is a serious matter. One of the computer quality standards, for example, is the speed at which a computer carries out calculations, this speed is determined by transistors speed. The faster the transistor the better the computer.
