Program Description Answer

b. Volatile storage is lost when a computer loses power.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation:

Volatile Storage:

Volatile storage, also known as volatile memory, refers to computer memory that requires a constant power source to maintain its contents. When a computer loses power, the contents of volatile storage are lost. Examples of volatile storage include RAM (Random Access Memory) and cache memory.

Non-volatile Storage:

In contrast, non-volatile storage, such as hard disk drives (HDD) and solid-state drives (SSD), retains its data even when the power is turned off. This is because non-volatile storage uses permanent storage media to store data, such as magnetic disks or flash memory. It is important to understand the difference between volatile and non-volatile storage, as volatile storage is used for the temporary storage of data that is being actively processed by the computer, while non-volatile storage is used for long-term storage of data that needs to be retained even after the power is turned off.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct option is option (b).

This is a question that I have and would like someone who has experiences with scene graphs and entity component systems to answer.For context, I am currently implementing a game engine and currently I am debating on our current design.Our current design is we have a singular game component class that every component inherits from. Where we have components like SpriteRendererComponent, Mehs Component, etc. They inherit from this GameComponent class. The point of this is being able to have O(1) access to the scene to being able to modify components to attach more components with the idea of accessing those components to specific scene objects in a scene.Now, my question is what kinds of caveauts can this cause in terms of cache coherence? I am well aware that yes its O(1) and that is great but cache coherence is going to be really bad, but would like to know more explicit details and real-life examples such as write in RAM examples on how this is bad. A follow-up question that is part…

PARTS(Pno, Pname, Qoh, Price, Olevel) CUSTOMERS(Cno, Cname, Street, Zip, Phone) EMPLOYEES(Eno, Ename, Zip, Hdate) ZIP CODES(Zip, City) ORDERS(Ono, Cno, Eno, Received, Shipped) ODETAILS(Ono, Pno, Qty) (10 Marks) I want a detailed explanation to understand the mechanism how it is Qoh stands for quantity on hand: the other attribute names are self-explanatory. Specify and execute the following queries using the RA interpreter on the MAILORDER database schema. a. Retrieve the names of parts that cost less than $20.00. b. Retrieve the names and cities of employees who have taken orders for parts costing more than $50.00. c. Retrieve the pairs of customer number values of customers who live in the same ZIP Code. d. Retrieve the names of customers who have ordered parts from employees living in Wichita. e. Retrieve the names of customers who have ordered parts costing less…
