or pisé de terre Building material made by compacting and drying a stiff mixture of clay, sand or other aggregate, and water. It has been used by many civilizations. The most durable of the earth-building forms, it is formed into building blocks (see adobe) or rammed within removable wooden forms in layers or lifts to construct walls. China's Erligang ( 1600 BC) is an example of a rammed-earth fortification; it covers an area of 1.2 sq mi (3.2 sq km) and may have taken 10,000 people more than 12 years to build
If a vehicle rams something such as another vehicle, it crashes into it with a lot of force, usually deliberately. The thieves fled, ramming the policeman's car
{i} volatile computer memory that can be accessed in any order, memory that temporarily stores data which is currently in use, most common type of computer memory (Computers)
If something rams home a message or a point, it makes it clear in a way that is very forceful and that people are likely to listen to. The report by Marks & Spencer's chairman will ram this point home to ram something down someone's throat: see throat. A memory device in which information can be accessed in any order. random access memory the part of a computer that acts as a temporary store for information so that it can be used immediately ROM. in full random-access memory Computer main memory in which specific contents can be accessed (read or written) directly by the CPU in a very short time regardless of the sequence (and hence location) in which they were recorded. Two types of memory are possible with random-access circuits, static RAM (SRAM) and dynamic RAM (DRAM). A single memory chip is made up of several million memory cells. In a SRAM chip, each memory cell stores a binary digit (1 or 0) for as long as power is supplied. In a DRAM chip, the charge on individual memory cells must be refreshed periodically in order to retain data. Because it has fewer components, DRAM requires less chip area than SRAM; hence a DRAM chip can hold more memory, though its access time is slower. Projection fixed to the front end of a fighting vessel and designed to damage enemy ships struck by it. It may have been developed by the Egyptians as early as 1200 BC, but it was most commonly used on Phoenician, Greek, and Roman galleys. It was briefly revived in the mid-19th century, notably in the American Civil War, when rams mounted on armored, steam-driven warships were used effectively against wooden sailing ships. Improvements in naval weaponry and the spread of metal-hulled ships soon made it obsolete again. See also battering ram. battering ram Roy Ram Mohun rammed earth
RAM is the part of a computer in which information is stored while you are using it. RAM is an abbreviation for `Random Access Memory'. a PC with 256k RAM minimum
Random Access Memory: The memory a computer needs to store the information it is processing at any given time It is short-term memory and is lost when the power is shut off See also: ROM
Random Access Memory A memory that may be written to or read from any address location in any sequence Random access in the sense of providing access to any storage location in the memory See DRAM and SRAM
(Random Access Memory) - The working memory of a computer where data and programs are temporarily stored RAM only holds information when the computer is on
Random Access Memory The most common type of computer memory; where the CPU stores software, programs, and data currently being used RAM is usually volatile memory, meaning that when the computer is turned off, crashes, or loses power, the contents of the memory are lost A large amount of RAM usually offers faster manipulation or faster background processing
Random Access Memory RAM is synonymous with the main memory in a computer It is the memory available to run programs For example, a computer with 8M of RAM has approximately 8 million bytes of memory that programs can use (Webopedia)
To butt or strike against; to drive a ram against or through; to thrust or drive with violence; to force in; to drive together; to cram; as, to ram an enemy's vessel; to ram piles, cartridges, etc
(Random Access Memory) The part of a computer's memory available for loading user-selected software and data Resolution-Image quality of a printed page ROM-(Read Only Memory) The part of a computer that contains manufacturer's instructions Router-A piece of computer hardware/software that handles the connection between 2 or more networks
(Random Access Memory) The most common type of computer memory, which is used by the CPU to store software, programs, and data currently being used RAM is usually volatile memory, meaning that when the computer is turned off, crashes, or loses power, the contents of the memory are lost A large amount of RAM usually offers faster manipulation or faster background processing
Random Access Memory Fast, short-term storageused by a computer RAM loses its contents when the computer is either switched off or when it is flushed by third party RAM management software
Random Access Memory RAM is commonly considered synonymous with main memory (i e , the memory available to programs in use on a computer), but this is a simplification of the actual meaning Physically, RAM consists of memory chips or chip modules (e g , SIMMs or DIMMs) which attach to the computer's logic board Memory modules can continue to be added as long as open slots are available on the logic board
A heavy steel or iron beak attached to the prow of a steam war vessel for piercing or cutting down the vessel of an enemy; also, a vessel carrying such a beak
Random Access Memory is temporary memory that your computer uses to store information Text copied to the "clipboard" is stored in RAM until it is replaced by new information or the computer is turned off
Random Access Memory The place in a computer where the operating system, application programs, and data in current use are kept temporarily so that they can be quickly reached by the computer's processor
Random access memory A data storage device for which the order of access to different locations does not affect the speed of access, except for bursts Data is typically stored in RAM temporarily for use by the process or while the computer is operating FPM, EDO, SDRAM, DDR, etc are all types of RAM
Random Access Memory is the temporary memory a computer uses to store data and process information The more RAM a computer has, the more data a computer can manipulate The contents of RAM are cleared when you turn off the computer
uncastrated adult male sheep; "a British term is `tup'" a tool for driving or forcing something by impact strike or drive against with a heavy impact; "ram the gate with a sledgehammer"; "pound on the door
Random Access Memory, also called Read/Write memory Information in RAM is said to be "volatile"; it is present only as long as the chips have power supplied to them When the power is cut off, all information disappears
Random Access Memory; the amount of memory available for use by programs on a computer Also referred to as "main memory" Example: A computer with 8 MB RAM has approximately 8 million bytes of memory available Contrast to ROM (read-only memory) that is used to store programs that start your computer and do diagnostics
Acronym for random access memory, which is semiconductor-based memory that can be read and written by the central processing unit (CPU) or other hardware devices
the most common computer memory which can be used by programs to perform necessary tasks while the computer is on; an integrated circuit memory chip allows information to be stored or accessed in any order and all storage locations are equally accessible
