hardware
This is known as the “brain” of the computer and performs most calculations.
the CPU
This refers to the programs that run on a computer.
software
This architecture describes how the major parts of a computer are organized and how instructions are processed.
Von Neumann Architecture?
What field design, develop, and maintain software applications?
Software Engineers
Collection of programs, data, and instructions that enable a computer system to preform specific tasks or functions is what definition?
Computer software
This type of memory is temporary and loses its information when the computer is turned off.
RAM- random access memory
Roblox is an example of this because it is a program that can be downloaded and run on a computer.
software
This is the first step of the Fetch-Decode-Execute cycle, where the CPU gets an instruction from memory.
fetch
what Field builds and deploys intelligent systems and algorithms?
AI engineers
physical components of a computer system that can be touched and manipulated is what definition?
computer hardware
This component connects all the different parts of a computer together.
the motherboard
This type of software consists of computer programs that help a computer operate.
system software
This is the second step, where the CPU figures out what the instruction means.
decode
What field analyzes and interprets large sets of data to extract insights and inform decision-making.
data scientists
combination of hardware, software, and data that work together to preform computational tasks is what definition?
computational system
This storage device uses flash memory and is generally faster than an HDD.
SSD- solid state drive
What type of software is designed to help a computer perform a specific task for the user?
utility software
This is the final step, where the CPU carries out the instruction.
execute
What Field protects computer systems and networks from potential threats and vulnerabilities?
cyber security analyst
any device capable of performing computations or processing information is what definition?
A keyboard and microphone are examples of this type of device.
input devices
This is an example of something that can be downloaded and run on a computer rather than being a physical component.
application/program
The CPU follows these three steps repeatedly to process instructions.
Fetch → Decode → Execute?
what field designs and builds websites using programming languages?
web developer
what is the definition of machine learning?
it involves training models on large datasets to recognize patterns, make inferences, and improve performance over time through experience what definition is this?
