Consist of blank pages for drawing or painting that is often used by artists and designers as part of their creative process. It is concerned with documenting what was observed from the real world that that can be translated into an art form, an inspiration, or basis for a project.

sketchbook

With the advent of technology, computers are now used to translate imaginations and creativity in digital format that may be used in a variety of projects. It preserves creative output and it speeds up distribution via internet.

computer

After a series of conceptualization and designing, the layout design may be printed to check whether the font style, size, color scheme and the smallest details you have included matches the overall theme of your project.

printer

In terms of design and graphics, Adobe is the current leader and shows no sign of decreasing popularity. For digital prints PhotoShop, Illustrator and InDesign are leaders in this area. For motion graphics, effects and mobile design, AfterEffects, Animate and Xd are popular choices

software

was once dominated with the use of pencil and hand-drawn drawings, but now computers play a major role in the industry. Artist working in the field are not only required to have creative skills in drawing but also computer skills. The idea is automate or play specified images at a faster pace in order to project a continuous motion.

animation

The use of computers has benefited the design industry in terms of speeding and creating a more appealing visual content for advertising and other promotional materials. G

design

An artist may create digital illustration under direct manipulation with the use of a some computer peripherals.

illustration

product of CGI or computer generated imagery.

special effects

With the use of computers and photo editing software, it’s possible to restore and enhance captured images to better attract clients and sell the product faster

photography

Also known as the CPU or Central Processing Unit, and is considered as the brain of the computer that carries out the instructions of computer programs stored in the memory

processor

fetch , decode, execute ,write back

carries out arithmetic and logic operations

Arithmetic logic unit (ALU

a coprocessor designed to carry out operations on floating-point numbers

Floating point unit (FPU)

a location built to a computer’s processor that speeds the execution of computer programs by providing quick access to data of specific calculation

processor register

also called the primary cache is a memory built into the processor responsible for storing recently accessed information

L1 cache memory –

also called Level 2 cache stores data that are not stored in L1 cache

L2 cache memory

needed to preserve variety of files during the development process.

memory and storage devices

Only the data and instructions for which the machine is actually operating are stored in primary memory.

primary memory

It uses constant power supply to store data in transistors.

SRAM (Static Random Access Memory)

sram

SRAM (Static Random Access Memory)

Capacitors are used to store data in this type of memory.

DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory)

DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory)

Common Types of DRAM

SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic RAM) DDR SDRAM (Double Data Rate SDRAM) RDRAM (Rambus RAM) –

a computer memory developed by Rambus

RDRAM (Rambus RAM) –

supports data transfer on both edges of a clock cycle (rising and falling edges) double the data it transmits.

DDR SDRAM (Double Data Rate SDRAM) –

a type of memory that synchronizes itself to the system clock that the CPU is optimized.

SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic RAM) –

Types of Memory Modules

SIMM (Single Inline Memory Module) – DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) – SODIMM (Small Outline DIMM

has a 32-bit data bus where pins present on either side are connected.

SIMM (Single Inline Memory Module

both sides of this memory module is consist of separate electrical contacts that doubles the 32-bit data bus of a SIMM to 64-bit.

DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) –

small outline of the regular DIMM use for netbooks and notebooks

SODIMM (Small Outline DIMM) –

A non-volatile computer memory use to store multimedia files, and install applications. In a computer system it may refer to hatd drives and sold state drives

secondary memory

An electro-mechanical data storage system abbreviated as HD or HDD that uses magnetic storage and one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material to store and retrieve digital data.

hard disk drive

Modern computers often use SSD as its primary storage, leaving HDD as the secondary storage

solid state drive

Any peripheral device used to provide data and control signals to an electronic device, such as a computers, tablets, and mobile phones.

input devices

Devices that displays or deliver processed information to users. Processed information/data may be in a variety of formats which includes audio, video, displays, and even hard copy media for physical reproduction.

output device

a types of printer that sprays tiny dots of ink onto paper to form images, and texts

ink jet

uses a laser unit that fires to a mirror to draw the shape of an image (text, shapes, images, etc.) generated in the computer

laser

an impact printer that prints images, or text using a pin that strikes an inkcoated ribbon

dot matrix

The actual processor responsible from the rendering of 3D graphics, creation of visual effects and computer generated scenes
