What are the processing capacities of the super computers mainframe computers and personal computers?
Supercomputers have multiple CPUs. Making it so fast, you can't believe it. The digital size, however depends on the Memory (RAM, ROM, RM). Mainframe computers are like supercomputers only they can store more larger applications like a census. They are slower than supercomputers, however the supercomputer evolved from mainframes.Personal Computers (PC) have only 1 CPU. Slower, but satisfying. It also depends on memory for the computer. Most modern PCs (especially laptops) have a feature called virtual memory,in which the memory can be stored on the hard disk. This is slow however.Conclusion: Supercomputer= fastPersonal computer= satifying
What primary storage was used in the first generation computers?
Many different types of memory were used in first generation computers, a few of the most commonly used were:electrostatic cathode ray tubes (DRAM)sonic delay lines (DSAM)electrostatic selectron tubes (SRAM)magnetic drums (NVSSAM)magnetic disks (NVSSAM)magnetic core stacks (NVSRAM)Magnetic core memory eventually became dominate.Second and third generation computers continued to use sonic delay line memory, magnetic disk memory, and magnetic core memory (with magnetic core memory still dominating).Late in the third generation computers solid state memory chips replaced all other types of memory.Fourth generation computers used only solid state memory chips.
Does the Bible contain any language about calculating or memory that would relate to computers?
The Bible contains no reference to calculating or memory that would relate to computers. These would have been quite foreign concepts to the biblical authors.
What is the cache memory used for?
Cache is a high speed buffer memory for storing automatically small areas of frequently used memory, so that the machine does not have to wait for the full memory access time every time it needs to access the data in those areas.Most computers have separate but similar cache memories for data and instructions. This allows the same access time advantages for both, but as data and instructions are usually in different places in memory eliminates any conflicts in usage.Some computers have multiple levels of different speed cache with different sizes. These are typically referred to as L1 cache, L2 cache, L3 cache, etc. with L1 being the fastest, most expensive, smallest size cache closest to the processor; the others are successively closer to the main memory.
How much memory does a personal computer have in 1998?
Personal computers typically had around 64 mb of memory in 1998. The memory was usually SDRAM that ran at a speed of 100 mhz.
What is space on computers storage device that simulates additional RAM?
It might be called "reserved virtual memory space" or "virtual memory file", depending on the operating system.
What type of memory is used by most computers when the amount of RAM needed exceeds the RAM available?
That would be virtual memory. Its when your the excess data is stored on your harddrive. A section of your harddrive is reserved for this purpose. Though virtual memory isn't as fast as normal RAM.
Capibilities of computers in the 50s and 60s?
About the same as modern computers, except limited by slower processors and limited memory space. All memory was physical memory until the late 1960s when virtual memory was developed and then virtual memory was rare. Graphics capability was primitive, when it was available.
What is space on the computers storage device the simulates additional RAM?
virtual memory
Virtual memory refers to your computers swapping of data currently in use between what types of memory?
explain the logical& physical memory
Difference between virtual memory and RAM?
Answer(Techsupport)Resolution: RAM and virtual memory are two different things. Virtual memory allows you to use a portion of your hard drive as though it were RAM. Your hard drive is up to 100 times slower than RAM, so virtual memory is much slower than RAM. When you upgrade your RAM, you can reduce or eliminate the use of virtual memory. Upgrading RAM makes memory available to complete tasks previously handled by virtual memory.
How do you read virtual memory?
Find a virtual psychic to read your virtual memory.
When the whole system halts due to a STOP error are the contents of the computers virtual memory dumped to a dmp file?
True
What option is used to view a computers memory propertys?
This tutorial assumes that you have set the Control panel to Classic View. To see ... If you click on the Advanced tab above, you'll see an option for Virtual Memory: Virtual Memory is used when your computer hasn't got enough to work with.
How does virtual memory work?
virtual memory works just like as temporary memory does
What is deffernce between virtual and physical memory?
The difference between virtual and physical memory is that virtual memory refers to memory space while physical memory are chips like RAM. The memory space for virtual memory is made by operating system when there is insufficient physical memory.
Does freeing up memory improve computer performance?
Computers operate best when they have "system memory" free and are not relying on virtual memory (which uses a hard drive as additional system memory). If you have a system with 1GB of installed system memory, and you are using 1.25GB of allocated memory, then freeing up 0.25GB of used system memory would improve performance by reducing virtual memory usage. Conversely, if you have 2.0GB of installed memory, and you are using 1.25GB of allocated memory, then freeing 0.25GB of used memory would have no appreciable effect since virtual memory is not being used by the system. Final answer: If you are using virtual memory, then freeing enough memory to eliminate the virtual memory usage will improve performance, but freeing up more than that amount will have no appreciable effect.
