Computer Terminology

In computers an accumulator is a dedicated single purpose register in which arithmetic operations are performed. They cannot be used for addressing memory or any other purpose than arithmetic.

Different computers have different quantities of accumulators, from none to a few dozen depending on the architecture.

Caches are generally defined as L1, L2, and L3. If a CPU has any cache memory at all, it will have at least L1 cache. L1 cache is the fastest, and most expensive, type of cache memory. Usually CPUs will only have a very small amount of L1. L2 is typically larger, less expensive, and slower than L1. L3 is less expensive, larger, and slower than L1 or L2, if present. All three levels of cache memory are magnitudes faster than system memory. Systems withequivalenthardware, including CPUs will identical speeds, will perform better at certain tasks when more cache memory is present, with L1 cache adding the most performance boost.

HyperText, or as used in the Internet HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) was invented at CERN, in Geneva, Swizerland. HyperText was invented by Tim Berners Lee for the World Wide Web.

These are located in the system unit or processing unit.

TB (terabyte) is larger than GB (gigabyte)

200x1024=204,800 MB

ecc momory can detect and repair errors

There are 1024MB in a GB so there are & about 1.4GB in 1400MB

Hope it helped :D

Depends on the type of hub you're talking about. A USB expansion hub for example would allow for additional USB ports.

700000 KB equates to 683.6 MB (rounded from 683.59375).

59,000 KB is 57.62 MB (rounded from 57.6171875).

The BIOS in many personal computers stores the date and time in BCD because the MC6818 real-time clock chip used in the original IBM PC AT motherboard provided the time encoded in BCD. This form is easily converted into ASCII for display.[4]

The Atari 8-bit family of computers used BCD to implement floating-point algorithms. The MOS 6502 processor used has a BCD mode that affects the addition and subtraction instructions.

Early models of the PlayStation 3 store the date and time in BCD. This led to a worldwide outage of the console on 1st march 2010. The last two digits of the year stored as BCD were misinterpreted as 16 causing a paradox in the unit's date, rendering most functionalities inoperable

Information sent from the computer is called data.

Bits is not a unit of processor speed, where GHz is. A bit is a measure for file sizes and capacities. The two cannot be converted into each other.

Digital Frames were invented in 2007 (Digital Picture Frames).

Automatic system recovery is a device or process that detects a computer failure and attempts recovery.

System Restore is a component of Microsoft's Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not Windows 2000, operating systems that allows for the rolling back of system files, registry keys, installed programs, etc., to a previous state in the event of system malfunction or failure.

There are technically 1,440,000 bytes that make up 1.44 megabytes. The floppy disk that used to be used to hold data for a computer was labeled as a 1.44 mb disk, although it actually held 1,474,560 bytes.

The possibility that two devices have the same IP address configured.

A byte is a standard "block" of data bits that was introduced by IBM and other manufacturers to store one "character" or "symbol" or some other standardized piece of data. A "bit" is the short name for a "binary digit" that can have only two values: 0 or 1.

1 byte is usually defined as 8 bits.

1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte

1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte

1024 megabytes = 1 gigabyte Note:

All the above definitions have long been in common everyday usage within the computer industry.

FSB stands for Front Side Bus, this is the part of the motherboard that carries data between the CPU(Processor) and other components such as your RAM or video card. 800 is the frequency of it, and indicates it's speed. 800 is a fairly fast FSB by today's(May 2007) standards. 800FSB stands for 800 Front Side Bus, meaning more speed added to the processor speed so the processor can do its work a little faster.

Tb could mean terabit because TB (upper case B) means terabyte.

Tera could mean one trillion (1,000,000,000,000) or (when referring to RAM) two to the power of forty (1,099,511,627,776).

There are eight bits in a byte so there are about one trillion bits in a terabit (Tb) and eight trillion bits in a terabyte (TB).
