  2. Direct memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_memory_access

    Direct memory access (DMA) is a feature of computer systems that allows certain hardware subsystems to access main system memory independently of the central processing unit (CPU). [ 1 ] Without DMA, when the CPU is using programmed input/output , it is typically fully occupied for the entire duration of the read or write operation, and is thus ...

  3. Disk image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_image

    Disk imaging is commonly used to rapidly deploy the same configuration across workstations. [8] Disk imaging software is used to create an image of a completely-configured system (such an image is sometimes called a golden image). [21] [22] This image is then written to a computer's hard disk (which is sometimes described as restoring an image ...

    Computer science is the study of computation, information, and automation. [1][2][3] Computer science spans theoretical disciplines (such as algorithms, theory of computation, and information theory) to applied disciplines (including the design and implementation of hardware and software). [4][5][6] Algorithms and data structures are central to ...
