  • Magnetomotorische Rechner-Speicher Sie Ähneln Daher Den Kontinuierlichen Daten Und Erfordern Kaum Spezifische Speicher
    Einordnung Prof. Dr. Horst Völz Speicher für Rechner müssen mit drei Arten von Daten umgehen 1. Arbeits-Daten, die be-, verarbeitet werden und aus denen die neuen Daten entstehen Sie werden in aufeinander folgenden Adressen abgerufen, bearbeitet und auch wieder so abgelegt. Magnetomotorische Rechner-Speicher Sie ähneln daher den kontinuierlichen Daten und erfordern kaum spezifische Speicher 2. Programm-Daten enthalten viele Adress-Sprünge, fordern daher angepasste Speicher mit hinreichend schnellen Zugriff auf beliebige Daten, Adressen 3. Archiv-Daten von hohem Wert, die sicher und langfristig aufbewahrt werden müssen und zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten fehlerfrei und zuverlässig zurückgeholt werden können Dieses Material ist herunterladbar von: aes.cs.tu-berlin.de/voelz/PDF Folien Rechnerspeicher Horst Völz Seite 1 von 166 Folien Rechnerspeicher Horst Völz Seite 2 von 166 Vergleich Folgerungen Arbeits-Daten Programm-Daten Archiv-Daten Wegen der Programm-Daten müssen Rechner-Speicher quasi adressierbar sein, ähnlich wie RAM • werden oft geändert • stehen meist unveränderlich fest • haben hohen Wert, Sicherheit Bei magneto-motorischen Speichern betrifft Adresse einen Ort, der erst durch Bewegung von Kopf oder Medien erreicht und eindeutig verifiziert werden muss • seriell abruf- und speicherbar • in beliebiger Reihenfolge • müssen langfristig verfügbar sein abrufbar Bei langen Magnetbändern und großen Speicherkapazitäten führt das zu sehr großen Zugriffszeiten • oft als Stream (audio, video) • Hierarchisch im Zugriff • schneller random-Zugriff Sie können verkürzt werden ⇒ durch Blockbildung als Zusammenfassung für relativ viele Daten ≈ kByte • auf nahezu beliebigen Medien, • Backup-Medien, wie Bänder, Hierzu ist eine Formatierung des Mediums notwendig, jeder Block erhält einen Header zur Kontrolle wie Arbeits-, Bandspeicher, • Disketten, Festplatten, spezielle Festplatten, optische Medien, Festplatten, Disketten usw.
