RAID 4 {Ans: Block-level striping with dedicated parity. Not often used, replaced with RAID 5.}single precision {Ans: A floating-point value represented in a single 32-bit word.}spatial locality {Ans: The principle stating that if a data location is referenced, data locations with nearby addresses will tend to be referenced soon.}Main memory {Ans: Also called primary memory. Memory used to hold programs while they are running; typically consists of DRAM in today's computers.}Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) {Ans: Memory built as an integrated circuit; it provides random access to any location. Access times are 50 nanoseconds and cost per gigabyte in 2012 was $5 to $10. Multiple DRAMs are used together to contain the instructions and data of a program. In contrast to sequential access memories, such as magnetic tapes, the RAM portion of the term DRAM means that memory accesses take basically the same amount of time no matter what portion of the memory is read. Modern DRAMS consist of rows in each bank}condition codes (flag) {Ans: 4 bits are used In MIPS, two registers are compared and the result of the comparison is stored in a third register. Then a conditional branching statement assess
