Gmail 5.10 update fixes Hotmail sync issue, other bugs




There has been a issue on the gmail users about using their gmail accounts with their smartphone and with other accounts, but this franchise corporation has updated this app and has come with the new Gmail 5.10. In this app they have update all the malfunctions on the app, they are assuring that in this app customers can easily sync their contacts and including using their outlook.address. all other bugs have been remove and can be easily remove if they come, they are still working with the nexus customers but I think they will surely come to a solution on them. Gmail has increase its work and will be able to continue impressing their customers over and over. Please read more in detail on the link below.

relection # 2

This was a good week, as I thought this course is more in detail with the computer systems operations and its parts. I can see that it is pretty hard cause a lot of information is being provided and that if you do not pay attention in class you will be lost. we learn about the cache memory, registers and the types of RAM. I can see that every body is catching up and going in track but to me I see it a little hard cause I am not familiar with all this stuff, only about websites and using other stuff on the internet.

The next class we suppose to use the class of components of computer system as a training class for the assembly that is coming in February, but some people reach late in the class that was including me and the teacher decide to have the class as normal. I accept the fault as well as the others did, but in that I reach 20 minutes late and I lost 20 minutes of class which is a lot. I will try not to reach late again so I do not disturb the plan of others. that is what I saw what happen in the class this past week.

Reflection # 1

The first day of class on components of computer system was so great, but it looks a lot of work is coming on this course. when the teacher gave us a brief introduction on what is coming throughout the semester I said, "don't be afraid, just try to buckle up and keep on the right track". on the first day of class I learn that this subject is more in detail on computer stuff, introduction to computers was only a beginner for us to learn the basic operations and how it works. I can see that this course will be a challenge because I feel if I do not put attention and put my self on the 100 % I could fail this course.

What I learn on this week in class could and will be use full. We are learning about processors and how it works, this could help me on lets say I want to buy a laptop, now I now which laptop is better and which is better for me, also I can recommend a friend in case he is undecided. But this week we had a quiz and I will not do well on that because I did not study a lot I focus on other quiz I had on that same day, I accept the fault on not passing the quiz but that will not happen again. Every week I will put my self to the full extent to pass this course with a good grade.




Intel is trying to cut reliance on PCs



This will be a great year for Intel because on what I see they will stop focusing on only pc and try something new. It will be a great risk to intel's organization but a profitable decision. They were able to choose this decision due to the low demand on desktops and laptops which they see that this year  10 percent was loss from but of them, due to increase in price on the PC'S. Intel will see its growth opportunity in data centers, memory and loT. Intel states that they will not put all his eggs in one basket that's the reason of this diversion on their production and also they state the company will start on shipping sample of its server chips with Altera's FPGAs (field programmable gate arrays) which are reprogrammable chips to select cloud customer this quarter. the only thing they are not succeeding is on tables and smartphones which this year was not a profit. I think intel will work on smartphones because everyone has one in the world. to read more please click on the link below.

Processors


What is the function of the CPU?

 

A CPU uses complex algorithms and programming to interpret signals and code. Many computer processors feature multiple cores, which help them process information more efficiently and quickly. A CPU retrieves information from the code within programs. It reads it to understand what the code is for, and then it executes the instructions.

A CPU is a small, square, internal piece of a computer that sits on the motherboard in a specialized slot made to hold a certain style or model of central processor. Many CPUs are connected to the motherboard with clamps and pins that are easily damaged. Since a CPU is the main component that processes data, it gets very hot as it works and needs a heatsink and fan to prevent damage, according to Fisher. Alternatively, some computers use water cooling systems.

The two most popular CPU brands are AMD and Intel, and these processors are found in a variety of electronics, including phones, laptops, desktops and gaming consoles. Processor speeds are measured in megahertz and gigahertz.

Clock speed function

Every computer processor includes an oscillator that operates at a certain number of pulses per second. These pulses set the tempo for the processor; in most cases, a processor executes one or more instructions per clock cycle. Clock speeds are usually measured in millions of cycles per second (megahertz) or billions of cycles per second (gigahertz).

Average processor clock speeds have gone up quite a bit over the past 10 years. As recently as 1990, a high-performance IBM 8088 processor ran at less than 5MHz. Today, processors from Intel and other vendors routinely run well over 3GHz.

Clock speeds aren’t a good measure of computing power because there are simply too many other variables. The design of the processor, the computer’s system architecture, the system software, and even the amount of memory in a computer all make a huge difference. By the time you take into account all of the other factors that can affect a computer’s performance, the clock speed doesn’t have nearly as much impact. In fact, I can imagine a lot of situations in which a system with a 200MHz processor would beat the socks off a system with a 600MHz or 700MHz processor.
