Clues
- cache memory can be accessed by a CPU more quickly than it can access regular RAM to execute frequently accessed items of code (e.g. loops) (5, 6)
- describes all the physical, electronic and mechanical components forming part of a computer system. (8)
- file parts are physically re-arranged on disc and is needed occasionally to speed up file access. (15)
- files are split up and stored on different parts of the disc. It will slow down disc access speed. (13)
- handshaking is the process that establishes if a device is ready to communicate (11)
- is a (world-wide) networked information and communication system freely available via any connected computer/device (8)
- is a standard set of rules that allow devices to communicate with each other (8)
- is a temporary data store but not in main memory e.g. MAR, MDR, CIR (9)
- is the simultaneous use of several processors to perform a single task (8, 10)
- points to the next instruction to be fetched and executed (7, 7, 2)
