Moore's Law

describes the pace at which central processing units improve. The CPU will double at about every two years

where is the CPU located?

the system motherboard and is responsible for processing instructions, performing calculations, and managing the flow of info through your computer.

When the CPU performs a program instruction, it goes through the same steps:

It fetches the required piece of data or instruction from RAM
It decodes the instruction into something the computer can understand
It executes the instruction
It stores the result to RAM before fetching the next instruction
Process is called a machine cycle

What two components is the CPU composed of?

The control unit and the arithmetic logic unit

Random access memory is your computer's ________ storage space

temporary; short-term memory

super fetch

preloads often used programs into system memory

resource monitor

displays how computer resources are being used

SSD solid state drive

uses electronic memory and has no mechanical motors or moving parts. Fast access times

`optical drives

are disc drives that use a laser to store and use data.

RAID

Redundant array of independent disks, strategies for using more than one drive in a system

COMPUTER SCIENCE

Define a family H of hash functions from a finite set U to a finite set B to be ∈-universal if for all pairs of distinct elements k and l in U, Pr{h(k) = h(l)} ≤ ∈, where the probability is over the choice of the hash function h drawn at random from the family H. Show that an ∈-universal family of hash functions must have ∈ ≥ 1/│B│ - 1/│U│.
