Key Points

  • Computer Terms Description
    OMR
    • Optical mark recognition (OMR) is an electronic method of gathering human-handled data by identifying certain markings on a document or marking multiple-choice questions.
    • Usually, the optical mark recognition process is achieved with the aid of a scanner that checks the transmission or reflection of light through the paper; places having markings will reflect less light than the blank paper, resulting in less contrasting reflectivity.
    MCIR
    • MICR (magnetic ink character recognition) is a technology invented in the 1950s that is used to verify the legitimacy or originality of checks and other paper documents. 
    • Special ink, which is sensitive to magnetic fields, is used to print certain characters on the original documents.
    RAM
    • RAM, which stands for Random Access Memory, is a hardware device generally located on the motherboard of a computer and acts as an internal memory of the CPU.
    • It allows the CPU to store programs and data temporarily.
    •  It is the read-and-write memory of a computer, which means the information can be written to it as well as read from it.
    FIREWELL
    • Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies.
    • At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet and prevents unauthorized access to a computer network.
