This presentation discusses different types of storage devices. It begins by introducing storage capacity and properties of storage units like access time and cost. The main types covered are optical storage devices like CDs, DVDs, and Blu-Ray discs which can store large amounts of data but are fragile. Magnetic storage devices discussed are floppy disks with small capacity and hard disks which are the primary computer storage. Solid state flash memory and memory sticks are also covered as portable options.
This document discusses various types of external storage devices, including hard disk drives, solid state drives, flash memory, optical discs, and future technologies. It provides details on how hard disk drives use spinning disks and magnetic heads to read and write data. Solid state drives have no moving parts and use integrated circuits for memory. USB flash drives are small, removable flash memory devices. Optical discs like CDs and DVDs store data in spiral tracks of tiny bumps burned by a laser onto the disc's surface. Future storage technologies may use helium instead of air in hard drives for higher capacity and kinetic drives that interface over ethernet.
We store important documents to access them in the future. Computers store documents and data on storage devices like hard disks, floppy disks, and USB drives. There are two main types of storage: main storage temporarily holds current data (e.g. RAM), while backing storage permanently stores data (e.g. hard disks). Common storage devices include magnetic tapes, hard disks, floppy disks, and compact disks, which differ in terms of capacity, speed, cost, and whether they provide permanent or temporary storage.
Storage devices can be optical, magnetic, or solid state. Optical devices like Blu-ray discs, CDs, and DVDs use lasers to read and write data while magnetic devices such as hard disks, magnetic tape, and floppy disks use magnetism. Solid state devices like external hard drives, SD cards, and USB flash drives store data electronically without moving parts or power source. Common storage devices vary in size, portability, storage capacity, and whether the data can be erased or not.
The document discusses different types of secondary storage devices. It describes sequential access devices like magnetic tapes that read and write data sequentially. It also describes direct access devices like hard disks that allow random access to stored data. Hard disks, floppy disks, disk packs, and zip disks are examples of magnetic disks. Optical disks like CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray disks are also covered. Each type of secondary storage device has advantages and limitations in terms of storage capacity, access speed, portability and reusability.
Secondary storage devices are non-volatile memory that stores large amounts of data at lower costs than primary memory. There are two main types of secondary storage devices: sequential access devices like magnetic tapes that are very fast for sequential data but slow for random access, and direct access storage devices (DASDs) like hard disks that allow for high-capacity random access storage. Magnetic disks are the most widely used secondary storage, offering high storage capacity, reliability, and the ability to directly access stored data.
This document discusses and compares different types of flash memory storage devices: solid state drives (SSD), memory cards, and USB flash drives. It provides details on what each type is, their specifications like size and storage capacity, advantages like portability and speed, and disadvantages like cost and durability. SSDs use flash memory and have no moving parts, providing faster access and transfer times than hard disks. Memory cards are used for media transfer between devices and come in formats like SD and microSD. USB flash drives simply plug into ports for convenient portable storage.

This section of the memory is also referred to as backup storage.
The storage capacity of primary storage is not sufficient to store the large volume so secondary storage.
Secondary storage also know as external memory or auxiliary storage not directly accessible by the CPU.
Storage devices are used to store data and information in a computer. There are two main types: primary and secondary storage. Primary storage includes RAM, ROM, and cache, which can be directly accessed by the CPU. RAM is used as the computer's main memory and comes in DRAM and SRAM varieties. ROM is used to store basic startup instructions and cannot be modified. Cache provides faster access to frequently used data. Secondary storage includes hard disks, which are not directly accessible by the CPU and require transferring data through primary storage. Hard disks are computers' main storage and come in internal and external varieties.
Storage provides capacity for files and information through devices like hard disks, while memory provides working space through RAM. Primary storage includes RAM and cache for running the computer, while secondary storage is long-term storage like hard disks. RAM is volatile memory used for running programs, coming in static RAM and dynamic RAM forms. ROM is read-only memory storing basic instructions. Cache memory improves performance by storing frequently used data and instructions. Optical storage includes CDs, DVDs, and Blu-rays, while magnetic storage encompasses floppy disks and hard disks. Flash memory offers portable options like USB drives and solid-state drives.

The document provides information about hard disk drives, including:
- Hard disk drives store digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces. Data is stored as binary 0s and 1s.
- Disk structures include tracks, sectors, cylinders, and clusters. Tracks are circular areas on disks, sectors are the smallest storage units, cylinders group same tracks, and clusters are groups of sectors.
- Performance is measured by latency, data rate, and seek time. Latency depends on rotation speed, data rate is bytes/second, and seek time is retrieving requested data.
- Common interfaces are IDE, SATA, and SCSI, which have different connectors and data transfer speeds.
The document provides information about hard disk drives (HDDs). It discusses that HDDs store data on rapidly rotating disks coated with magnetic material. The first HDD introduced in 1956 was the size of two refrigerators and stored 3.75 MB. Key components of modern HDDs include disks, read/write heads, and electric motors. Common interfaces are EIDE, SATA, and SCSI. HDD performance is impacted by latency and data transfer rates. Popular vendors include Seagate, Western Digital, and Toshiba. Future developments may increase 3.5" desktop drive capacities to 12 TB by 2016.
This document discusses secondary storage devices and non-volatile memory. It defines secondary storage devices as any storage beyond the primary storage that enables permanent data storage. Examples of secondary storage devices include magnetic tapes, floppy disks, DVDs, and USB drives. Non-volatile memory is any solid-state memory that can retain data without power, such as ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM, and flash memory. Secondary storage saves data after the primary storage (RAM) saves it, providing permanent storage when power is turned off. Common secondary storage devices include hard drives, optical drives, and USB flash drives.
This document discusses concepts related to atmospheric moisture, evaporation, and condensation. It begins by reviewing key prior knowledge, including the second law of thermodynamics and how systems move towards equilibrium. It then explains that evaporation and condensation rates depend on how far a system is from saturation. Water is a polar molecule that forms hydrogen bonds in liquid and solid states. Evaporation occurs when kinetic energy exceeds bond energy. Temperature measures molecular kinetic energy. Saturation vapor pressure represents the maximum water vapor amount for a given temperature. Relative humidity compares actual to saturation vapor pressures. Dew point temperature indicates the temperature at which air becomes saturated. Worked examples apply these concepts to calculate vapor pressures, relative humidity, and dew point.

Carbohydrates play an important role in living organisms. They are classified as simple or complex sugars and serve as a primary energy source. The most common simple sugars are monosaccharides like glucose, fructose, and galactose. Complex carbohydrates are made of two or more linked monosaccharides and include disaccharides like sucrose and polysaccharides like starch and cellulose. Carbohydrates have many functions in biochemistry such as energy storage, structure in plants, and determining blood types in humans.
This document discusses the history and uses of flash drives. It begins by explaining that flash memory was invented in 1980 and became commercially available in 1988. Flash memory is a type of non-volatile computer memory that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. Flash drives use flash memory and have become popular due to their small size, durability, and large storage capacities. The document then provides examples of how flash drives can be used for tasks like transporting files, storing applications, backing up data, and augmenting system memory. It argues that backing up data is the most important use of a flash drive due to the ease and portability it provides for creating convenient backups.
3 Hour Presentation for the WPC Symposium. As we progress in our understanding of privilege, power, and oppression, one of the toughest transitions is not only acknowledging our identities of marginalization but also our identities of power and privilege. Traditional equity and justice approaches concentrate on the deficit model – oppressed people must empower themselves to create positive change. How do we shift to a model in which those in power become allies to change systems from the inside out? Take part in an interactive workshop where we will examine the intersections of all our identities, own the power and privilege that we do have, and gain practical tools to become allies.
This document discusses a weekly option spread trade on the Bank Nifty index from August 26th to 29th 2016. It involved shorting a strangle spread with a target range of 600 based on technical analysis. The trader implemented the strangle, gradually entered positions to achieve an average net credit of +60, and exited at a net loss of -33.8. They reviewed the trade positively despite nerves from holding it overnight during an eventful weekend, and looked forward to their next expiry the following week.
Changes in the states of matter can occur through evaporation or condensation. Evaporation is the change of a liquid to a gas state, such as water turning to water vapor, after being heated. Condensation is the opposite change where a gas turns to a liquid state, like water vapor condensing to liquid water again, through the process of cooling.

Memory is divided into primary and secondary storage. Primary memory (RAM and ROM) is temporary and allows for quick access, while secondary memory provides permanent storage of large amounts of data even when the computer is off. Secondary storage devices include magnetic hard disks and floppy disks, as well as optical disks like CD-ROMs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs that store data using lasers.
Primary storage, also known as main storage or memory, is the area in a computer in which data is stored for quick access by the computer's processor. The terms random access memory (RAM) and memory are often as synonyms for primary or main storage
Magnetic storage devices include floppy disks, hard disk drives, magnetic tape, and solid state drives. Optical storage uses lasers to read and write data in the form of pits and lands on discs like CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray. Storage capacity and speeds have increased over time while physical sizes have decreased. Cost per gigabyte has also declined for most storage types.
The document discusses various types of storage devices including optical storage devices like CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, as well as magnetic storage devices like floppy disks, magnetic tapes, zip disks, and solid state flash memory cards. For each type of storage device, the document outlines their key features, advantages, and disadvantages. Overall, the document provides an overview of common storage technologies and compares their characteristics such as storage capacity, speed, portability, and cost.
Primary storage refers to memory like RAM and ROM, while secondary storage refers to peripheral devices like disks and tapes used for additional storage. Secondary storage is required for three reasons: data in memory is volatile and can be lost, memory capacity is limited, and memory is more expensive than secondary storage. Common secondary storage devices include floppy disks, hard disks, and optical disks like CDs and DVDs, as well as tape backups. Floppy disks can store 1-100 MB of data but are small and portable. Hard disks can store hundreds of GB but are fixed internally; removable hard disks also exist. Optical disks like CDs and DVDs can store large amounts of data quickly but DVDs store more data and
Storage holds data, instructions, and information for future use. Common storage media include floppy disks, CDs, DVDs, tape, and flash drives. Larger storage capacities are measured in kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and terabytes. Optical discs like CDs and DVDs use pits and lands to store data as binary digits, while magnetic media like floppy disks and tape use magnetic particles. Flash drives, memory cards, and smart cards provide portable storage. Tape is still used for backup storage due to low cost per gigabyte.
The document discusses various computer memory and storage devices.

CDs hold around 800MB of read-only data, while DVDs and Blu-Ray discs can hold significantly more data up to 50GB in writable formats, using laser light of different wavelengths to read small pits in the disc's surface. Flash memory cards and drives store data electronically in non-volatile memory.
Unit-7 Leadership discusses different theories of leadership. The trait approach from the 1940s proposed that leaders are born with certain qualities like drive, integrity and confidence. However, traits alone do not distinguish effective vs ineffective leaders. Behavioural theories from the late 1940s examined what effective leaders do, focusing on consideration for subordinates and initiating structure. The Ohio and Michigan studies identified dimensions like concern for production vs employees. Contingency theory proposes there is no best leadership style and the situation affects which approach is most effective, like a task-focused leader in a routine situation. Fiedler's contingency theory matches leader and situational factors for effectiveness.

A production system is a type of artificial intelligence program that uses rules to represent knowledge and solve problems. It consists of productions, which are if-then statements that specify a condition and corresponding action. Productions execute to achieve a goal. Strong method production systems rely heavily on domain-specific knowledge, while weak method systems use general logic and reasoning techniques applicable to many problems without deep knowledge of any single domain.
This document discusses perception and its role in individual behavior. It defines perception as the process of understanding objects or events, which differs between individuals based on their expectations, needs, and background. Perception is influenced by both internal factors in the perceiver, like attitudes and motives, and external factors in the target and situation. The perceptual process involves environmental stimuli being selected, organized, and interpreted. This process can be affected by factors in the perceiver, target, and situation. Finally, the document discusses specific applications of perception in organizational contexts like employment interviews, performance expectations, and employee effort.

Objectives of foreign direct investmentsabin kafle
1)Sustaining a high level of investment
- Since the underdeveloped countries want to industrialized themselves within a short period of time, it becomes necessary to raise the level of investment substantially. This requires, in turn, a high level of savings.However, because of general poverty of masses, the savings are often very low. Hence emerges a resource gap between investment and savings. This gap has to be filled through foreign capital.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
