Computer Memory

Permanent or Secondary storage - such as a hard drive, CD, DVD, or USB drive

Kingston makes several different types of RAM hardware, including system specific RAM and a value priced line.

No. It is usually used to help run the programs your are running at that moment and store other associated data.

While not yet sanctioned officially as an SI Unit, it is likely that 1 carabyte will be adopted as 1000 yottabytes - will be needed by 2020.

If you've installed more than 4 gigabytes of memory, you're going to have to upgrade to the 64-bit version of Windows XP to recognize it all. A 32-bit operating system is only able to recognize about 3.4 gigabytes of RAM.

The computer, of course, will recognize that memory; and there are products on the market that will let you use the extra memory as a RAM drive. I'm still using the 32-bit version of XP, until I can afford Windows 7, and I have my swap file on the 4.5 GB RAM drive. I notice a substantial increase in speed with programs that do a lot of swapping to the hard drive.

Declarative memory is that branch of memory that is based on "conscious recall" or the bringing back to mind of past events or personal experience where a minds eye image can be formed (Ridley, 1995). It can be sub-divided into semantic (trivial memory) and episodic memory (based on an event). The aspect about it that is interesting, in contrast to non-declarativerecall, is the fact that it is non-obligatory or facultative that is to say it is information or memories that can be disregarded or taken into account in the long term or short term in the carrying out of a related task or behaviour. Non-declarative memory is obligate and is characterized by its need to be obligate. Squire (1992), tells us that non-declarative memory may be linked to the following behaviours or actions as examples; 1) skills and habits 2) non-associative learning (i.e. to an event) 3) priming (memories driven by stimuli, not a conscious decision) 4) simple classical conditioning No image can be formed from these other thabn the "source memory" i.e. the instance of obtaining such "skills" etc. (See Baddeley, 2001) Both work in unison to provide effective long-term memory but are different.

Last I checked it was Troika Imagineering Works

Data and instructions from an input device are sent to the CPU. When the time is right, the control unit sends this information from the device to the arithmetic/logic unit, where an arithmetic operation or logical operation is performed. After being processed, the information is sent to memory, where it is held until it is ready to be released to an output unit. Basically, it is a form of storage.

Laws that allow someone hurt by a drunk to sue the shop that sold the drunk the liquor.

memory is required to store the data or any information.but the usual computers have very less memory space in them. so to increase the performance of your computer and to access it on a faster rate we need memory hierarchy.

Perfect memory would be photographic memory, where as if you read something like a book, you would remember the exact words and the order the book went. This abilty could be obtained from years of intense memory practice, or just a natural genetic talent.

Motherboards of that era would have had a either a combination of the older SDR SDRAM (PC100 or PC133 RAM) and DDR SDRAM, or just DDR SDRAM.For best performance, you would want to use the DDR slots.

The memory in the computer called RAM contains data. For instance if you open Microsft Word then that progrom is loaded into your RAM memory. This makes the program rum faster because the CPU does not have to access it from the hard drive which is a slow process. So the data in memory travels from the RAM to the CPU for processing. The other way RAM travels with with your video card. Video cards have a direct link to the CPU so they can process faster, this includes memory. So memory travels to the CPU and to the Video when needing. Remember memory does not travel anyware, its the data inside the memory that travels. Hope this helps.

If you have two hard drives, and one is an IDEE drive using fat32 file structure, and the other is a different kind of drive and file system, your operating system may have difficulty accessing files on one or the other of your hard drives. This is not usually a problem with Windows XP, but older operating systems may not see one or the other of the drives.

I think virtual memory is a place on the hard drive used for memory other than the ram so virtual memory is it.

The computation performs 8 FLOPS on 2 cache lines, i.e., 8 FLOPS in 200 ns. This corresponds to a computation

rate of 40 MFLOPS

That depends on how much memory capacity the computer has, and what you want to do with it. If there is a program that you need to run that won't run, it could be memory problems, and you could check the box the software came in and compare it to your system specifications to see if they match up... and if they don't, and there is more capacity, then buy some memory.

If things seem to work fine with no software hang-ups, then you're probably okay.

If you're a zillionaire just looking for something to do with your money, then sure... buy as much memory as it will hold. I always want to do that too. :) But while you're at it, you might want to get a better computer and an extra hard drive, and some S-video and a Blu-Ray player so you can watch movies on your 60-inch flat screen as well. :) ... And hey, if we're watching movies, maybe some popcorn too. ;)

Approximately how many hard-copy pages of documents could be stored on the flash drive by an employee.

Yes, but it would require software that you would have to purchase. There is no real way to do it for free. You will just have to type your password every time.

I assume you mean, does the computer change or erase the information stored on it's memory chips, and the answer is yes, all the time.

Memory chips are the "work area" where a computer conducts all of it's calculations, the space where it runs all it's programs. For example, on a PC, if you start up a browser (i.e. Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari, etc.), the PC loads that browser (a program) into it's memory chips, and then will usually display your home page.

If you start a second program such as a Word Processor, it will load that program into it's memory chips also. Of course, it may get more complicated than that inside the PC. If it doesn't have room for both programs on the memory chips at the same time, it may erase part of the browser from the memory and store it temporarily on your disk drive in what's called a paging area until you ask it to run the browser again.

There are actually alot more details that go on behind the above, but I won't confuse us both by getting into them here.

When you Shut Down your computer, all the information on the memory chips is erased or lost because it relies on electricity (power) to keep it. But disk drives are different, and information can be stored permanently there by your PC, regardless of whether the power is on or not.

Let me know if I can confuse you more.

just type in the word that you want to know and then it'll answer for you

The units of measurement for memory are:

Bit=a 1 or 0

Byte=8 bits

Kilobyte=1024 bytes

Megabyte=1024 kilobytes

Gigabyte=1024 megabytes

Terabyte=1024 gigabytes

Petabyte=1024 Terabyte

Exabyte=1024 Petabyte

Zettabyte = 1024 Exabyte

Yottabyte=1024 Zettabyte (wow, 1208925819614629174706176 bits)
