subtype: computer_hardware__hardware the mechanical, magnetic, electronic, and electrical components making up a computer system
subtype: CPU__central_processing_unit__C.P.U.__central_processor__centralprocessor__processor__mainframe (computer science) the part of a computer (a microprocessor chip) that does most of the data processing; the CPU and the memory form the central part of a computer to which the peripherals are attached
subtype: memory_board__memory__storage__store an electronic memory device; "a memory and the CPU form the central part of a computer to which peripherals are attached"
subtype: RAM__random-access_memory__random_access_memory__random_memory__read/write_memory the most common computer memory which can be used by programs to perform necessary tasks while the computer is on; an integrated circuit memory chip allows information to be stored or accessed in any order and all storage locations are equally accessible
subtype: ROM__read-only_memory__read-only_storage__fixed_storage__fixedstorage (computer science) memory whose contents can be accessed and read but cannot be changed
subtype: CD-ROM__compact_disc_read-only_memory a compact disk that is used with a computer (rather than with an audio system); a large amount of digital information can be stored and accessed but it cannot be altered by the user
subtype: EPROM__erasable_programmable_read-only_memory (computer science) a read-only memory chip that can be erased by ultraviolet light and programmed again with new data
subtype: real_storage the main memory in a virtual memory system
subtype: scratchpad (computer) a high-speed internal memory used for temporary storage of preliminary information
subtype: virtual_memory__virtualmemory__virtual_storage__virtualstorage (computer science) memory created by using the hard disk to simulate additional random-access memory; the addressable storage space available to the user of a computer system in which virtual addresses are mapped into real addresses
subtype: scheduler computer hardware that arranges jobs to be done by the computer in an appropriate order
subtype: sequencer computer hardware that sorts data or programs into a predetermined sequence
subtype: ironware__hardware instrumentalities (tools or implements) made of metal
subtype: construction
subtype: instrument.tool__tool the means whereby some act is accomplished; "my greed was the instrument of my destruction"; "science has given us new tools to fight disease"
