my game is basically like a game of getting points.
there are two characters that are always on the screen and by moving your mouse over it, you'll be able to earn points, you can also earn bonus points if you move your mouse over the butterfly, but the butterfly will only appear sometimes.
To end the game, you must click on the yellow duck which appears rarely, which means you have to be quick to click on the duck.

kinda lame but whatever.
please do my poll when you have played it.
The poll is on this page.

GAME

Our new IT assignment is to make a game!
and you can find my game in the W drive.
its called 'GET THE DUCK'
i knw its lameee....
but anyways,

LMAO

Static RAM (SRAM). This RAM will maintain it’s data as long as power is provided to the memory chips. It does not need to be re-written periodically. In fact, the only time the data on the memory is refreshed or changed is when an actual write command is executed. SRAM is very fast, but is much more expensive than DRAM. SRAM is often used as cache memory due to its speed.
There are a few types of SRAM:
Async SRAM. An older type of SRAM used in many PC’s for L2 cache. It is asynchronous, meaning that it works independently of the system clock. This means that the CPU found itself waiting for info from the L2 cache.
Sync SRAM. This type of SRAM is synchronous, meaning it is synchronized with the system clock. While this speeds it up, it makes it rather expensive at the same time.
Pipeline Burst SRAM. Commonly used. SRAM requests are pipelined, meaning larger packets of data re sent to the memory at once, and acted on very quickly. This breed of SRAM can operate at bus speeds higher than 66MHz, so is often used.

This site has more info on ROM, RAM and DRAM.

randomn info on SRAM

Short for static random access memory, and pronounced ess-ram. SRAM is a type of memory that is faster and more reliable than the more common DRAM (dynamic RAM). The term static is derived from the fact that it doesn't need to be refreshed like dynamic RAM.
While DRAM supports access times of about 60 nanoseconds, SRAM can give access times as low as 10 nanoseconds. In addition, its cycle time is much shorter than that of DRAM because it does not need to pause between accesses. Unfortunately, it is also much more expensive to produce than DRAM. Due to its high cost, SRAM is often used only as a memory cache.

good site

last day on working on the wikispace.
=(
found really good site for SRAM.

SRAM

okay, so this is actually the first time im working on my blog and wikispace page after school.
anyways, we my group cut down on our information.
me and sabrina are doing the two main types of RAM. which are SRAM and DRAM.
im doing SRAM and sabrina is doing DRAM.
looking for information on SRAM and rewording it, so it easier for others to read and understand it.
check it out later, for our new MEMORY page.
its looks better now.
:)

editing the RAM page today.
Mr Lennon says that we have too much info. Info that we dont even need.
So we are cutting it down.
Check it out later in a few days time to see the new changes.
:)

updates on the RAM page.

sabrina and i have added information on our RAM page.
the information is on the types of RAM and the uses of them.
check it out on http://ist92.wikispaces.com/RAM

Memory


What is MEMORY?

Computer storage, computer memory, and often casually memory refer to computer components, devices and recording media that retain digital data used for computing for some interval of time. Computer storage provides one of the core functions of the modern computer, that of information retention. It is one of the fundamental components of all modern computers, and coupled with a central processing unit (CPU), implements the basic Von Neumann computer model used since the 1940s.
In contemporary usage, memory usually refers to a form of
solid state storage known as random access memory (RAM) and sometimes other forms of fast but temporary storage. Similarly, storage more commonly refers to mass storage - optical discs, forms of magnetic storage like hard disks, and other types of storage which are slower than RAM, but of a more permanent nature. These contemporary distinctions are helpful, because they are also fundamental to the architecture of computers in general. As well, they reflect an important and significant technical difference between memory and mass storage devices, which has been blurred by the historical usage of the terms "main storage" (and sometimes "primary storage") for random access memory, and "secondary storage" for mass storage devices. This is explained in the following sections, in which the traditional "storage" terms are used as sub-headings for convenience.

RAM

This is some information on RAM.

Pronounced ramm, acronym for random access memory, a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly; that is, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes. RAM is the most common type of memory found in computers and other devices, such as printers.
There are two basic types of RAM:
dynamic RAM (DRAM)
static RAM (SRAM)
The two types differ in the
technology they use to hold data, dynamic RAM being the more common type. Dynamic RAM needs to be refreshed thousands of times per second. Static RAM does not need to be refreshed, which makes it faster; but it is also more expensive than dynamic RAM. Both types of RAM are volatile, meaning that they lose their contents when the power is turned off.

Our wikispace

This is our wikispace on RAM and memory.
Memory page: http://ist92.wikispaces.com/Memory
RAM page: http://ist92.wikispaces.com/RAM

Visit our site and admire our work!
:D

Note: RAM is currently under construction and its blank. But there will be something on there soon!
:]

late post

this is a very late post,
but we have started our wikispaces assigment!

My group has:
  • Maria
  • Sabrina
  • Eriel
  • Iysa

Our topic is on RAM and MEMORY!
The most boring topic there is!
