the Working Memory Model The working memory model is a theory for how short-term memory works‚ and an expansion of the views expressed in the MSM theory. Baddeley and Hitch in 1974 felt that STM was not just one store but a collection of different stores. These concepts lead them to form a model which consists of three slave systems; the central executive‚ the phonological loop and the visuo-spatial sketchpad. They used the phrase ‘working memory’ to refer to the division of our memory that we utilize

Capacity Theory of Comprehension: Individual Differences in Working Memory Marcel Adam Just and Patricia A. Carpenter Carnegie Mellon University A theory of the way working memory capacity constrains comprehension is proposed. The theory proposes that both processing and storage are mediated by activation and that the total amount of activation available in working memory varies among individuals. Individual differences in working memory capacity for language can account for qualitative and quantitative

A solid-state drive is a drive that uses non-volatile memory as a means of storing and accessing data‚ similar to computer RAM (SSD‚ 2014). An advantage the solid-state drive has over other hard drives is no moving parts. This allows the solid-state drive to access information faster‚ produces no sound‚ and significantly more reliable than the common hard drive. The first solid-state drive was designed and implemented between the 1970s and 1980s. Throughout the years‚ the storage capabilities have
