Explain the following in your own words,

1. HLL, LLL
2. Translators
3. What are 32 bits and 64 bits systems?
4. What is the speed of processors such as 2.5Ghz?
5. Need of RAM?
6. Need of Cache Memory?
7. What do we mean by dual-core, quad-core etc.?

ANS 1} LLL: The word "low level" refers to how closely the machine is developed. Low-level
languages are machine-programmed and necessitate a thorough understanding of and configuration
of computer hardware.

HLL: Higher level languages are simple languages that construct programmes using English and
mathematical symbols such as +,-, percent, /, and so on.Because the instructions are suitable for
solving a specific problem, higher level languages are problem focused languages. COBOL, for
example.

ANS 2} A translator is a computer software that transforms one language to another using a
programming language processor. It translates a programme written in source code to machine
code. During translation, it detects and identifies the error.

ANS 3} The phrases 32-bit and 64-bit apply to how information is handled by a computer's processor
(also known as a CPU). A 64-bit version of Windows is better at handling huge amounts of random
access memory (RAM) than a 32-bit system. The 64 bit operating system has 264 bits of space to
address and supports 16 hexabytes of RAM to process data, whereas the 32 bit operating system has
a limit of 4GB RAM to process data.

ANS 4} It refers to the number of times per second that a signal in the CPU, known as the "clock,"
moves up and down. The speed at which everything in that CPU performs its function is directly
controlled by this clock.

ANS 5} The primary purpose of RAM is to serve as a temporary storage location for data and
programme instructions so that they can be rapidly accessed by the CPU when needed. If they were
kept on the hard disc drive, it would take longer to retrieve them when needed, slowing down the
CPU's processing performance.

ANS 6} Cache memory is beneficial because it enhances data retrieval performance. It saves
programme instructions and data that are utilised repeatedly during programme execution or
information that the CPU is expected to want next.

ANS 7} A central processor unit with two processors is known as a dual-core CPU. Dual-core
processors have their own controllers, allowing them to perform more efficiently and effectively
than single-core processors. Because there are two processors, they can do jobs faster. Dual-core
technology is used in the AMD X2, Intel core duo, and other processors.

A quad-core CPU is a four-processor central processing unit. Chip designers can get improved
performance without increasing the clock speed by using many cores.The operating system can then
distribute the processing load over multiple processors to speed up the operation. The AMD
Phenom X4, Intel Core 2 Quad, and other quad-core processors are examples.
