From the first e-Activity, identify the following CPUs: 1) the CPU
that resides on a computer that you own or a computer that you would consider
purchasing, and 2) the CPU of one (1) other computer. Compare the instruction
sets and clock rates of each CPU. Determine which CPU of the two is faster and
why. Conclude whether or not the clock rate by itself makes the CPU faster.
Provide a rationale for your response.
From the second e-Activity, examine two (2) benefits of using
planning techniques—such as writing program flowcharts, pseudocode, or other available
programming planning technique—to devise and design computer programs. Evaluate the effectiveness

Multicore Processors” Please respond to the following:
From the e-Activity, determine the type of cache memory (i.e.,
Level 1, Level 2, or another type) that resides on a computer that you own or
on a computer that you would consider purchasing. Examine the primary manner in
which the type of cache memory that you have identified interfaces with the CPU
and memory on your computer. Determine which type of cache memory is the most
efficient, and provide one (1) example that depicts the manner in which the use
of one (1) type of cache memory makes your computer processing more efficient
than another.
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of both symmetrical and
master-slave multiprocessing systems in regards to computer processing speed,
multiprocessing configuration, overheating, and cost. Of the two (2), recommend
the type of processor that would be better suited for a computer that is
primarily used for the following: Word processing, Microsoft Excel
spreadsheets, and computer gaming. Provide a rationale for your response.
CIS 512 Week 5 Discussion STR
“Disks and Printers” Please respond to the following:
From the first e-Activity, identify the specific manufacture and
model of one (1) magnetic disk, one (1) solid state drive, and one (1) optical
drive. Evaluate the quality of each in terms of read and write speeds, access
methods, storage capacity, longevity, and price. Recommend the device that
would be the best suited for a home environment and the device that would be
best suited for a business environment. Provide a rationale for your response.
From the second e-Activity, identify the make and model of one (1)
laser printer and one (1) inkjet printer that are similarly priced. Evaluate
the quality of each in terms of print speed (i.e., pages per minute),
resolution (i.e., dots per inch), memory, color capability, duplex printing
capability, cartridge price, cartridge printing capacity, and longevity. Next,
recommend the printer that would be the best suited for a home environment and
the printer that would be the best suited for a business environment. Provide a
rationale for your response.
CIS 512 Week 6 Discussion STR
“Personal Computers and
Networks” Please respond to the following:
From the e-Activity, determine whether you prefer a laptop or
desktop. Elaborate on the features that you would want your desktop or laptop
to offer, and provide an explanation of why you would want such features.
Imagine that you are moving into a new house and need to consider
the home network that you will use. Outline the main considerations that you
need to take into account when evaluating your networking options. Examine the
major types of networks and hardware available in terms of range, speed,
security, reliability, and price. Determine the network that you would
implement and the hardware that you would need.

IPv6 is an updated version of IPv4 that has been around for a
number of years. From the first e-Activity, examine the major difficulties that
users have encountered throughout IPv6’s widespread acceptance and
implementation. Recommend two (2) possible solutions for the difficulties that
users have encountered in IPv6’s widespread implementation. Justify your response.
From the second e-Activity, examine the major pros and cons of a
DSL and a cable Internet connection. Compare DSL and cable Internet connections
based on availability, consistent high speed, reliability, security, and price.
