  2. Memory hierarchy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_hierarchy

    Off-line bulk storage – Tertiary and Off-line storage. This is a general memory hierarchy structuring. Many other structures are useful. For example, a paging algorithm may be considered as a level for virtual memory when designing a computer architecture, and one can include a level of nearline storage between online and offline storage.

  3. Tree (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(abstract_data_type)

    The mechanism used to allocate and link blocks of data on the storage device; Class hierarchy or "inheritance tree" showing the relationships among classes in object-oriented programming; multiple inheritance produces non-tree graphs; Abstract syntax trees for computer languages; Natural language processing: Parse trees

  4. Memory architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_architecture

    Memory architecture describes the methods used to implement electronic computer data storage in a manner that is a combination of the fastest, most reliable, most durable, and least expensive way to store and retrieve information. Depending on the specific application, a compromise of one of these requirements may be necessary in order to ...

  5. Computer data storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_data_storage

    Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. [1]: 15–16 The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is what manipulates data by performing computations.

  6. Container (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Container_(abstract_data_type)

    storage, that is the way of storing the objects of the container; traversal, that is the way of traversing the objects of the container. Container classes are expected to implement CRUD-like methods to do the following: create an empty container (constructor); insert objects into the container; delete objects from the container;

  7. Database storage structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_storage_structures

    Ordered storage typically stores the records in order and may have to rearrange or increase the file size when a new record is inserted, resulting in lower insertion efficiency. However, ordered storage provides more efficient retrieval as the records are pre-sorted, resulting in a complexity of O ( log ⁡ n ) {\displaystyle O\left(\log n ...

  8. Memory cell (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_cell_(computing)

    The storage element of the DRAM memory cell is the capacitor labeled (4) in the diagram above. The charge stored in the capacitor degrades over time, so its value must be refreshed (read and rewritten) periodically. The nMOS transistor (3) acts as a gate to allow reading or writing when open or storing when closed. [37]

  9. Object storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_storage

    Object storage (also known as object-based storage [1] or blob storage) is a computer data storage approach that manages data as "blobs" or "objects", as opposed to other storage architectures like file systems, which manage data as a file hierarchy, and block storage, which manages data as blocks within sectors and tracks.
