  2. Memory footprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_footprint

    Memory footprint refers to the amount of main memory that a program uses or references while running. [1] The word footprint generally refers to the extent of physical dimensions that an object occupies, giving a sense of its size. In computing, the memory footprint of a software application indicates its runtime memory requirements, while the ...

  3. Application footprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_footprint

    In computing, footprint of an application software (or application footprint) provides a sense of sizing of its various constituents, and hence, is a spatial measurement, in a given context, such as disk footprint, memory footprint (a.k.a. runtime footprint), network footprint, etc. In each case, footprint of an application excludes data that ...

  4. Science project - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_project

    A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types.

  5. Semiconductor memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiconductor_memory

    The memory cells are laid out in rectangular arrays on the surface of the chip. The 1-bit memory cells are grouped in small units called words which are accessed together as a single memory address. Memory is manufactured in word length that is usually a power of two, typically N=1, 2, 4 or 8 bits.

  6. Digital permanence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_permanence

    Digital computers, in particular, make use of two forms of memory known as RAM or ROM and although the most common form today is RAM, designed to retain data while the computer is powered on, this was not always the case. Nor is active memory the only form used; passive memory devices are now in common use in digital cameras.

    The matriarch’s memory bank is a font of survival knowledge for a herd, so this means that poaching is a huge threat to their survival as a species. Poachers kill the largest elephants with the ...

  8. Disk footprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_footprint

    Due to organization of modern software applications, disk footprint may not be the best indicator of its actual execution time memory requirements - a tiny application that has huge memory requirements or loads a large number dynamically linked libraries, may not have comparable disk footprint vis-a-vis its runtime footprint.

  9. Stay-at-home science project: Leave some “fossil” footprints

    Looking at fossilized footprints is one of the most tangible ways to experience prehistoric life. Gazing up at the terrifying skull of a Tyrannosaurus rex in a museum is one thing, but standing ...
