Another type of port is PS/2. The PS/2 is most commonly used for things like Keyboards and Mouse. These are also found on almost all IBM compatible computers. The two ports are colour coded so it’s easier to decide which device goes into which port. The green port is used for the mouse and the purple port is used for the keyboard. PS/2 Ports are starting to be replaced with USB Ports which are more upto date, and able to be used for multiple types of devices and not just mouse and keyboard.

1.8 Internal Memory 1.8.1 RAM (Random Access Memory)
Random access memory (RAM) is the memory in a computer that is used to store computer programs while they are running as well as any other information the programs need to do their job. Information in the RAM can be read and written quickly in any order. Usually the RAM is emptied every time the computer is turned off. It is known as 'volatile memory'.

1.8.2 ROM (Read-Only Memory)
ROM is a memory chip where crucial system instructions (BIOS) are permanently stored. The data held on ROM can be read but not changed. This is done during manufacturing of the ROM chip. ROM is non-volatile, so the data stored on it will not be lost when the computer is …show more content…

A Keyboard allows for you to enter different characters such as letters, numbers and symbols. Each key on a keyboard represents a different character on the computer. There are several different types of keyboards, Ergonomic Keyboards, QWERTY Keyboards, and Braille Keyboards. Another example of an Input Device is a Mouse. A Mouse is a Pointing Device which allows you to move the cursor on the computer. A mouse typically has two-three buttons, which you can use to click and drag objects on the computer. In order for the Mouse to work correctly, it needs to share data with the computer, so the computer then knows what it needs to do with the inputs the mouse is sending

\subsection{Creation of Matching Entries ({\it MakeMatchingEntries'})} \label{sec:make-matching} \label{sec:match} Procedure ${\it MakeMatchingEntries'}$ takes a decoding entry set and a pattern as input and outputs a newly created set that contains the entries that match the input pattern. Note that not every entry in the newly created set is the same entry in the input entries because the exclusion conditions were modified. The exclusion conditions that are invalidated by the input pattern are removed from the exclusion condition set of output entries. In addition, when all the matching patterns are invalidated, the unmatching patterns are expanded to their opcode patterns. Procedure ${\it MakeMatchingEntries'}$ consists of the following

Back side of the system unit: * Serial port: it is a general-purpose interface that can be used for almost any type of device, including modems, mouse or keyboard. * Parallel port: It is usually used for connecting PC to a printer. * USB port: It is a plug and play port on your pc. With USB, a new device can be added to your computer without additional hardware or even having to turn the PC off. A single usb can be used to connect to 127 peripheral devices.

With widespread use of internet services, the network scale is expanding on daily basis and as the network scale increases so will the scale of security threats which can be applied to system connected to the network. Viruses and Intrusions are amongst most common threats that affects computer systems. Virus attacks can be controlled by proper antivirus installation and by keeping the antivirus up to date. Whereas any unauthorized access in the computer system by an intruder can be termed as Intrusion and controlled by IDS. Intruders can be grouped into two major categories which are external and internal Intruders.

The three features from Unit 1’s reading I have chosen are Cutting, Copying and Pasting Text; Setting the Page Layout; and Removing Blank Paragraphs. Each of these three features makes every day word processing activities easier, saves time, and reduces the waste of paper. Cutting, copying and pasting text makes typing the same thing to multiple people or companies easier by copying the text and pasting it to different documents. You can edit the text by cutting or copying what needs to be changed from each document.

Components Computers have one or a lot of big or small R-A-M chips inside. RAM chips are a random access memory chip inside, the computer uses it to store information that will be used anytime or used to store something like the copy clipboard(The copy clipboard is the thing that stores what you copy to paste later) to delete/change later. There is also a spinning or solid state hard drive that uses DVD like disks that stores information like your video games, pictures, or other things. A CPU is the thing that your computer uses to do all the processing work, like our brain but not like it. CPU stands central-processing-unit.

3.1.1 Dual Clock In this technique it is assumed that delay misses rarely happens, then circuit schedules are designed using minimal delays for critical paths. Pair of alternate clocks, fast and slow, is used. The system normally operates at the fast clock however, when an error is noticed, computation for the input values which is causing error is restarted at the slower clock. Under the premise that delay errors occur for small number of input values, the system can switch back to the faster clock on the next input value.

III. Device: A “device” is used to achieve the association between virtual and physical entity. This is done by embedding, attaching or simply placing the device in close proximity to the physical entity. Devices provide the technological interface for interacting with or gaining information about the physical entity. By so doing the device actually enhances the physical entity and allows the latter to be part of the digital world.

1) What is modularization, and why do we want to do this?? Design It is an approach to program design that involves developing complex programs not as “contiguous structures” but as assemblages of self-contained parts or “modules”. The modules usually enclose one independent point of functionality relative to the total functionality of the program.

W is the player button to move forward and S is the player button to move backwards with. A and D are the players side controls, A will move the player to the left and D will move the player to the right. These are very helpfully to help you get to new areas and move out of the way of objects. Your space bar is your jump key, you will press it when you need to jump to another block, for example, doing parkour, or when you just need to jump up to a one high block. Next are your inventory controls and what the mouse controls.

The primary storage in computers today is usually referred to as the main memory. This type of storage is distinguished by the very high speed at which it can be accessed. Main memory is kept close to the processor, and is used for the things being worked on at the moment. If one were building a chair, the computer memory is like the workbench where the hammer, nails, wood, and other materials are kept while working. Most memory today stores data using integrated circuits made up of transistors and
