Description 1:
CPU:
CPU stands for central processing unit which denotes to an electronic circuit capable
of fetching input commands or instructions from memory unit. Logic and arithmetic
operation care performed by the CPU and it also stored the data back to the memory device.
As the name implies it is the central unit of the whole system and installed in a dedicated
socket on motherboard along with a fan.
As shown in the diagram CPU is comprised two core units as ALU and CU. ALU
stand for arithmetic logic unit which performs all kind of logic and arithmetic operations in
system. It receives inputs of three type as status information from operations done
beforehand, data which will be operated and signal from Control Unit (Silberschatz, Gagne
and Galvin 2018). The other unit named Control Unit navigate the operations by sending
control and signals.

Fetch, decode and execute are the main working functions of the CPU regardless of
their origin. In the current market major manufacturer of the CPU are AMD, VIA and Intel.
For mobile devices Apple, Samsung and QUALCOMM are the leading in the market.
RAM
RAM stand for Random Processing Memory which is a volatile memory as it cannot
store the memory without the power when computer is turned off. As it cannot store log term
memory, it is used for short term memory. It is used to access to the memory quickly rather
than sending request to the hard drivers. There are two type of RAM as DRAM and SRAM.
DRAM stand for Dynamic random access memory which refreshed frequently and denotes
the capacity of the RAM as well. For instance, if a computer has a 4GB RAM, the 4 indicates
to the DRAM. It is used as a main memory unlike SRAM which is used for cache. It stands
for static random Access Device and does not need to be refreshed dissimilar to the DRAM.

Persistent Storage
Persistent storage is the main storage location for all data such as operating system, files and
many more. The hard drive has a capability of limited storage depends on the slots. Unlike
