RAM RAM is an acronym for Random Access Memory that is also known as volatile memory‚ because the data it holds is lost when the desktop PC or laptop/notebook computer using it is switched off. Briefly‚ RAM memory is used by the system to store data in the form of files for processing by a computer’s central processing unit (CPU)‚ also known as the processor. The amount of RAM memory used in modern desktop and laptop computers is expressed in megabytes (MB) and gigabytes(GB). A gigabyte (1GB)

Finally‚ we describe the continuing integration of 21st century supercomputers‚ networks‚ personal devices‚ and integrated computers/communicators into many aspects of today’s society. Increases in speed and memory capacity‚ and decreases in cost and size in relation to compute power‚ are major features of the history . 3.

Articulate three alternative strategies for Samsung going forward‚ i.e.‚ state which products/markets and which competitive advantages Samsung should emphasize‚ with particular emphasis on the threat from China. Compare and contrast these strategies‚ and choose one as a strategic recommendation. After thoroughly analyzing all the data we consider three strategies that Samsung could take in order to face the increasing Chinese competition are: • Partner with a Chinese

A USB flash drive is a data storage device that includes flash memory with an integrated Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface. USB flash drives are typically removable and rewritable‚ and physically much smaller than an optical disc. Its function is for storage‚ back-up and transfer of computer files. The most common use of flash drives is to transport and store personal files‚ such as documents‚ pictures
