• Storage


  The process where memory, a type of computer, stores data
• Secondary storage


  A backup memory of a computer where data is stored for later use
• Volatile memory

  A type of memory that can only store data temporarily and is lost when the computer is turned off
• Non-volatile memory


  A type of memory that can store data permanently even when the computer is turned off
• Optical drive


  A type of secondary storage device that uses a laser to read and write data from optical disks
• Primary storage


  The main memory of a computer where data is stored for immediate use
• Solid-state drive


  A type of secondary storage device that is faster, reliable, and has a limited storage capacity but can lose data during powerless
• Flash memory


  A type of non-volatile memory that can be used in portable devices and is typically measured by the amount of pixels
• Hard disk drive


  A type of secondary storage device that has a larger capacity and is cheaper per gigabyte
• RAM


  Random Access Memory
• Scanner


  A device that can translate documents into digital format by scanning them
• OCR


  A technology that can recognize and convert text from scanned documents
• Printer


  A device that can print digital documents on physical paper
• Resolution


  Describes the image quality of a device, with a higher resolution resulting in a higher picture recognition and translation quality
• Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate various physiological processes such as growth, metabolism, reproduction, and homeostasis.
• GIGO
• Efficiency systems are adjustable and can process tasks without being prompted multiple times
• Crowdfunding
• Social networking
• Efficiency systems are faster than human beings in optimizing labor and motion
• Magnetic ink character recognition simplifies and speeds up the process of reading characters on documents like checks and barcodes
• Character recognition technology uses tiny magnetic tools to encode data on documents
• You input bad data, you get bad results
• Efficiency systems in business save time and improve information processing
• Resolution describes image quality based on the number of pixels displayed in horizontal and vertical lines
• Voice recognition allows computing devices to recognize and distinguish spoken words
• Efficiency systems differentiate between efficiency, accuracy, privacy, reliability, and communication
• Higher image quality depends on high resolution and color depth
• Non-verbal cues like facial expressions can be seen during video calls or conferences
• Colour depth indicates the number of colors that can be displayed
• Disadvantages of scanners include large disk storage space for high-quality images
• Optical drives convert electrical signals into light signals for data transmission over fiber-optic cables
• Scanners use light to convert hard copy images or documents into electronic files on computers
• Advantages of scanners include transferring images to computers for emailing or other applications, and making copies with printers
• OCR translates scanned documents into editable text
• Voice recognition can be used for voice commands and typing out spoken words
• Webcams allow video communication from anywhere with an internet connection
• Scans need to be of good quality for OCR to work
• Disadvantages of voice recognition
• The hypothalamus acts as an intermediary between the nervous system and the endocrine system, controlling the release of certain hormones.
