Who was Grace Hopper and what is she famous for?

Grace Hopper was a computer scientist and U.S. Navy officer. She is famous for her pioneering work in computer programming languages, particularly for developing the first compiler, which translated instructions written in a higher-level programming language into machine code that a computer could understand. Hopper's work laid the groundwork for modern programming and greatly contributed to the development of the computer industry.


How do ram GHz affect your computer?

Hz on a RAM is the speed of which the hardware can read. the higher the Hz the faster RAM.


Why computers are classified into different generations of computer?

I'm not sure if you are referring to specific computer, for example the ML350 servers that HP build. If you are referring to this type of generation, then a new generation of computer indicates an upgrade to the model, including a different (more up to date) hardware package, this would be to support higher demand for the server (from a higher throughput and lower response time aspect).


Who invented floppy for IBM?

It was a team effort (no single person). This was an 8 inch diameter floppy without a jacket used to store the microprogram code for various models of the IBM System 370 computer (1971) and had a capacity of only 80KB. It was decided that these floppies did not have to be robust (and were practically considered disposable) as they would rarely be used more than once or twice a day when the computer was first powered on and would be stored away safely the rest of the time.Later when floppies became a common data storage medium on small computers, the floppy had to be made much more robust and reliable and the capacity had to be increased. To improve robustness and reliability the 8 inch floppy was packaged in a stiff jacket with a fabric liner that would clean off and capture dust from the floppy surface. Higher recording density was used. The original FM coding used to read and write data was replaced with MFM coding to double the capacity and some drives could access both sides doubling the capacity again (the highest capacity double sided 8 inch diameter floppy could store 1MB).

What uses RAM and how do you increase available RAM?

Random Acces Memory is a very important part of the mechanics of the computer. You increase it by obtaining a higher capacity ram stick of the same type your computer uses.


Does buffer capacity depend on the amount of buffers present?

Yes. The higher the number of buffers, the higher the buffer capacity.


What technology called a processor can begin executing an instruction before it completes the previous instruction?

The 8085 microprocessor does not prefetch instructions. The 8086/8088 and higher microprocessors do, in order to boost performance. They are trading idle time in the bus-interface unit, idle time waiting on the execution unit, in order to attempt to have the next instruction already fetched and available when the execution unit finally needs it. This is done by separating the execution unit from the bus-interface unit, and allowing them to operate somewhat asynchronously. Since most instructions will be followed by instructions at the next higher address, this can boost performance by minimizing idle time.


What is the purpose of the backup?

A d2d, also known as a disk-to-disk, is where a computer hard drive is backed up to another hard disk rather than a tape or a floppy. It allows for higher speed and higher capacity.
