Data Representation
How do computers represent data?
Most computers are digital
Recognize only two discrete states: on or off Use a binary system to recognize two states Use Number system with two unique digits: 0 and 1, called bits (short for binary digits)
Data Representation
What is a byte?
Eight bits grouped together as a unit Provides enough different combinations of 0s and 1s to represent 256 individual characters
Numbers Uppercase and lowercase letters Punctuation marks

Data Representation
How is a letter converted to binary form and back?
Step 1.
The user presses the capital letter D (shift+D key) on the keyboard.
Step 2.
An electronic signal for the capital letter D is sent to the system unit.
Step 4.
After processing, the binary code for the capital letter D is converted to an image, and displayed on the output device.
Step 3.
The signal for the capital letter D is converted to its ASCII binary code (01000100) and is stored in memory for processing.

What is random access memory (RAM)?
Memory chips that can be read from and written to by processor
Also called main memory or primary storage Most RAM is volatile, it is lost volatile, when computers computer power is turned off
Memory
How do program instructions transfer in and out of RAM?
RAM
program, the programs instructions load into RAM from the hard disk. The word processing program, along with the Web Browser and certain operating system instructions are in RAM. The word processing program window is displayed on the screen.

Memory
How much RAM does an application require?
Software package System Requirements typically indicates Windows XP Home Edition/Professional Intel Pentium processor at 233MHZ or higher RAM requirements AMD K6 (Athlon Duron Family processor at 233MHZ or higher 64 MB of RAM For optimal performance, you need more than minimum specifications
Memory
How much RAM do you need?
Depends on type of applications you intend to run on your computer
RAM Use 128 to 256 MB
Home and business users managing personal finance Using standard application software such as word processing Using educational or entertainment CD-ROMs Communicating with others on the Web
256 to 1 GB
Users requiring more advanced multimedia capabilities Running number-intensive accounting, financial, or spreadsheet programs Using voice recognition Working with videos, music, and digital imaging Creating Web sites Participating in video conferences Playing Internet games
1 GB and up
Power users creating professional Web sites Running sophisticated CAD, 3D design, or other graphics-intensive software

Memory
What is cache?
Helps speed computer processes by storing frequently used instructions and data Also called memory cache
L1 cache built into processor L2 cache slower but has larger capacity L2 advanced transfer cache is faster, built directly on processor chip L3 cache is separate from processor chip on motherboard (L3 is only on computers that use L2 advanced transfer cache)

Memory
What is read-only memory (ROM)?
Memory chips that store permanent data and instructions Three types:
Firmware Firmware Manufactured with permanently written data, instructions, or information EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory) eademory) Type of PROM containing microcode PROM programmer (programmable can erase read-only eadmemory) emory) Blank ROM chip onto which a programmer can write permanently
Nonvolatile memory, it is not memory, lost when computers computer power is turned off
