Dr . "'James R . " Bob " Biard "'( born May 20, 1931 ) is an American electrical engineer and inventor who holds optical isolator, the Schottky transistor, and Metal Oxide Semiconductor Read Only Memory ( MOS ROM ).

"Half Machine Lip Moves " and their 1979 EP " Read Only Memory " cemented the band's growing reputation in the UK and led to the band being signed to Beggars Banquet Records for their fourth album, " Red Exposure ".

ROM which has permanent data that can be altered but is rarely done is known as programmable read only memory or PROM . ROM that is often reprogrammed is known as erasable read only memory or EPROM . Simple, isn't it?

For games such as " Myst " and " Rebel Assault, " edutainment titles like Microsoft's " Encarta " and " Compton's Multimedia Encyclopedia, " and even business applications like Quicken, the CD-ROM ( compact disc-read only memory ) has become the storage medium of choice.

A CD-ROM, which is an acronym for compact disc-read only memory, is similar in appearance to a music CD . The circular discs store vast amounts of data and are capable of " multimedia " uses that combine multiple elements like text, still photographs, audio and video.

They can replace the chip with one designed to get maximum performance out of the engine, or, because the so-called " flash chips " used by many manufacturers are EEPROMs ( Electrically Eraseable Programmable Read Only Memory ), they can easily rewrite the information that is on them.

On such a system, the first 32 KiB of address space may be allotted to random access memory ( RAM ), another 16 KiB to read only memory ( ROM ) and the remainder to a variety of other devices such as timers, counters, video display chips, sound generating devices, etc.

The memory of known words was a bank of 20 screwdriver-adjustable trimmer resistors . ( Mims later referred to this as " Screwdriver-Programmable Read Only Memory ", SPROM . ) The memory was searched by a motor driven switch that compared the resistance of the input word with each memory resistor.

Among others a HEC will be a centre for the learning of basic computer skills, a centre for the production of desktop publishing, a centre for graphic and animation applications development, as well as a resource centre for printed materials, compact disk-read only memory ( CD-ROM ) and video compact disks ( VCDs ).
