How does the operating system help manage resources such as the processor memory storage hardware and peripheral devices?
so as to infom the processor of what it ought to do
Why is microcontroller needed?
A microprocessor cant work as a stand alone unit.to make it work we have to interface memory and input out devices and so the PCB of microprocessor based system will be larger.Microcontroller consists of processor,memory and peripherals on a single chip and so needs no interfacing.Microcontroller can be programmed for any specific task.
What Consists of electronic components that store instructions waiting to be executed by the processor data needed by those instructions and the results of processed data information?
Memory
How does RAM work in electronic devices?
RAM is an acronym for random access memory. RAM acts as a capacitor memory which holds data briefly as it moves through the processor.
What is the case called which houses the processor memory and storage devices in a computer?
It's commonly called the CPU, Central Processing Unit.
Where can you find the processor memory and storage devices on your computer?
If are using Windows XP, find My Computer and right-click on it. Then click on Properties. This will bring up a window that shows all of your processor information.
Why memory management is important?
The speed of processor is very high in comparison to that of user and input/output device.... So if processor is made to wait and work in the speed to user and I/O devices the system becomes very slow... Hence, in order to make full use of processor's speed MEMORY MANAGEMENT is done
What are different resources managed by O.S?
The different resources of operating system are file system,input/output devices,memory unit,processor....
What types of transfers must a computers interconnection structure (bus) support?
The Type of transfers that must a computer interconnection structure support thats a bus is the following: (1) Memory to Processor (2) Processor to Memory (3) I/O to Processor (4) Processor to I/O (5) I/O to or from Memory
What are the meanings of CPU memory input devises output devices and secondary storage devices?
CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. In short it's the processor which is the 'brain' of the computer. Memory is the working area of the computer. Input devices are devices which are used to send/enter data to the computer and output devices are used to show us the results of our work. The secondary storage device is to save our work on to it such as a floppy disk or a memory stick.
What is work processor?
processor and main memory
Should fastest RAM be placed in the slot closest to processor or memory controller?
If you have a mix of RAM devices with different speed capabilities on a motherboard, the memory bus will work on speed of the slowest memory. Then it does not matter which slot you put which memory. - Neeraj Sharma
