Unit 7 week 7 Homework NT1110 How has CMOS memory changed over the years? CMOS really hasn’t changed very much from what I could find on the internet… Mainly the speeds have increased and the noise has been reduced it also went from analog to digital. Originally‚ the IBM PC only used of a small portion of CMOS memory and the balance of the 64 bytes were left undefined. Once other manufacturers cloned the AT form factor it wasn’t long that other areas of the CMOS was used by various BIOS manufacturers

NT1110 Lab 7 Task 1: Hardware firewalls provide a strong degree of protection from most forms of attack coming from the outside to the internal network. Hardware firewalls can protect computers on a local area network and they can be implemented without much configuration difficulty. Software firewalls are installed on individual computers and they need sufficient configuration to be effective. Software firewalls contain a set of related programs‚ usually located at a network gateway

NT1110 Computer Structure and Logic Unit 1 Assignment 1: Integrated Circuit Technology Based on the reading from Moore’s Law; the number of transistors and integrated circuits double every two years. Starting in 1971 to the present day; transistor number double or even tripled over the years. So I believe the transistor and integrated circuit technology growth is surprising fast due to how evolved technology is becoming. From transistors and integrated circuits doubling every two years

In June‚ 1994 the media came out with a story that one of Intel’s Pentium microprocessors had a floating point unit flaw (FPU). This flaw had to do with a math calculation that gave out wrong number after you put in an equation. The story about this flaw came to light after Professor by the name of Thomas Nicely‚ who was a mathematics professor at Lynchburg collage. Nicely was trying to compute the sum of a reciprocal of a large group of prime numbers on his Pentium based computer. When he checked
