RAM that holds data and instructions that the memory controller anticipates the processor will need next?
memory cache
Roles of memory in computer proccessing of data?
Memory hold data that is been processed by the computer Memory also holds data that is waiting to be processed by the computer It also holds data that has been processed by the computer
What stores frequently used instructions and data?
Memory cache stores frequently used instructions and data on a computer. Cache memory is stored on a memory chip in an area of the RAM.
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
Which memory temporarily holds data and instructions as the CPU processes them?
RAM (Random Access Memory) and SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) are the most commonly used types of memory used to hold instructions. RAM is the familiar chips you see people use to upgrade memory on the machine. SRAM is normally integrated and very expensive but much faster than normal RAM because it communicates directly with the processor.
Primary storage is permanent as it holds data and instructions for processing the data?
False
What is the term for very fast memory used to store data or instructions between the CPU and regular memory?
Very fast memory used to store data or instructions between the CPU and regular memory is called cache.
To hold data and instructions in virtual memory?
pagefile.sys
What is the name of the memory chips that holds data temporarily?
Random Access Memory
What is the function of data?
holds 16 bit data just fetched from the memory
Explain concept of electronic memory?
ELECTRONIC MEMORY IS WHERE DATA AND PROGRAME INSTRUCTIONS ARE STORED
Data and program instructions are temporarily held in what while the processor is using them?
RAM or the processor cacheWhen the data and instructions reach the RAM they are operated on immediately.For data and instructions that the CPU is working on right at that time, these memory locations are called Registers. Many systems have dedicated registers just for EITHER data or instructions, while others have a set of registers which can be used for either, and still other CPUs have all three (data, instruction, and general-use registers).
