Computer

The Adidas Micropacer featured a computer display that allowed athletes to check the amount of calories they burned and their pace among other things.

A central processing unit (CPU) is an important part of every computer.

The CPU sends signals to control the other parts of the computer, almost like how a brain controls a body.

The CPU is an electronic machine that works on a list of computer things to do, called instructions.

A list of instructions that a CPU can run is a computer program.

In the 20th century engineers invented many different computer architectures.

Robots are usually machines controlled by a computer program or electronic circuitry.

A computer is a machine that accepts data as input, processes that data using programs, and outputs the processed data as information.

The two principal characteristics of a computer are: It responds to a specific instruction set in a well defined manner and it can execute a prerecorded list of instructions call a program.

There are four main processing steps in a computer: inputting, storage, outputting and processing.

Most people have used a personal computer in their home or at work.

EBay was created by an Iranian-American computer programmer called Pierre Omidyar, in 1995.

A laptop is a computer which is easy to carry around.

Computer parts were scaled to smaller size so this could happen.

Laptops combine all the input/output components and capabilities of a desktop computer.

Grid's computer was one fifth the weight of any other computer used at that time.

The first successful laptop computer was the Japanese Kyocera kyotronic 85, introduced in 1983.

A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data.

You may already know that you can use a computer to type documents, send email, play games, and browse the Web.

When most people hear the word computer, they think of a personal computer such as a desktop or laptop.

When you withdraw cash from an ATM, scan groceries at the store, or use a calculator, you're using a type of computer.

Desktop computers are designed to be placed on a desk, and they're typically made up of a few different parts, including the computer case, monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

The second type of computer you may be familiar with is a laptop computer, commonly called a laptop.

A server is a computer that serves up information to other computers on a network.

They work as a computer but are mobile devices small enough to fit in a user's hand.

Older phones also used computer technology, but lacked many of the parts of a computer that were too big to fit into a phone.

This would be as fast as some computer networks that use ethernet.

Virtual reality (often just called Vr) is the name for computer technology that makes a person feel like they are somewhere else.

The first use of virtual reality would be in 1962 with the creation of the light pen, a device capable of writing on a computer without the need for physical ink.

In 1973, Gates enrolled at Harvard, where he studied mathematics and computer science.

Computer hardware is the physical parts or components of a computer, such as the monitor, keyboard, computer data storage, graphics card, sound card and motherboard.

This describes a design architecture for an electronic digital computer with subdivisions of a processing unit.

The meaning of the term has evolved to mean a stored-program computer in which an instruction fetch and a data operation cannot occur at the same time because they share a common bus.

When using computer hardware, an upgrade means adding new hardware to a computer that improves its performance, adds capacity or new features.

Also, the user could increase the RAM so the computer may run more smoothly.

Because computer parts contain hazardous materials, there is a growing movement to recycle old and outdated parts.

Computer hardware contain dangerous chemicals such as: lead, mercury, nickel, and cadmium.

Disposing unauthorized computer equipment is in fact illegal.

Recycling a computer can be made easier by taking out certain reusable parts.

Computer software, also called software, is a set of instructions and its documentations that tells a computer what to do or how to perform a task.

Software includes all different software programs on a computer, such as applications and the operating system.

The word software was first used in the late 1960s to emphasize on its difference from computer hardware, which can be physically observed by the user.

Software is a set of instructions that the computer follows.

Before compact discs (CDs) or development of the Internet age, software was used on various computer data storage media tools like paper punch cards, magnetic discs or magnetic tapes.

The word firmware is sometimes used to describe a style of software that is made specifically for a particular type of computer or an electronic device and is usually stored on a Flash memory or ROM chip in the computer.

Application software are the computer programs for performing user tasks such as word processing and web browsers.

System software is used to start and run computer systems and networks.

Computer programming tools (also known as development software) are used to create application and system software.

This is done by translating and combining computer program source code and libraries into executable RAMs.

This product, also known as the Bloomberg terminal, is the computer system that analyzes and generates real-time market and financial information for finance professionals.
