EXAM WITH COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
.VERIFED/GRADED A+
Cash Cow - (ANSWER)business jargon for a business venture that generates a
steady return of profits that far exceed the outlay of cash required to acquire or
start it.
Magnetic Storage - (ANSWER)or magnetic recording is the storage of data on a
magnetized medium. Magnetic storage uses different patterns of magnetisation
in a magnetisable material to store data and is a form of non-volatile memory.
Price Elasticity - (ANSWER)measure used in economics to show the
responsiveness, or elasticity, of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a
change in its price when nothing but the price changes. More precisely, it gives
the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a one percent
change in price.
Bandwidth - (ANSWER)The maximum rate of data transfer across a given path.
Microprocessor - (ANSWER)A computer processor that incorporates the
functions of a computer's central processing unit on a single integrated circuit, or
at most a few integrated circuits.
Silicon Wafer - (ANSWER)also called a slice or substrate, is a thin slice of
semiconductor material, such as a crystalline silicon, used in electronics for the
fabrication of integrated circuits and in photovoltaics for conventional, wafer-
based solar cells.
, 2
Cloud Computing - (ANSWER)shared pools of configurable computer system
resources and higher-level services that can be rapidly provisioned with minimal
management effort, often over the Internet. Cloud computing relies on sharing of
resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale, similar to a public utility.
Latency - (ANSWER)a time interval between the stimulation and response, or,
from a more general point of view, a time delay between the cause and the effect
of some physical change in the system being observed
Natural Language Processing (NLP) - (ANSWER)a subfield of computer science,
information engineering, and artificial intelligence concerned with the
interactions between computers and human (natural) languages, in particular
how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural
language data.
Reverse Engineering - (ANSWER)also called back engineering, is the process by
which a man-made object is deconstructed to reveal its designs, architecture, or
to extract knowledge from the object; similar to scientific research, the only
difference being that scientific research is about a natural phenomenon.
Big Data - (ANSWER)a term used to refer to data sets that are too large or
complex for traditional data-processing application software to adequately deal
with. Data with many cases (rows) offergreater statistical power, while data with
higher complexity (more attributes or columns) maylead to a higher false
discovery rate.
, 3
Animatronics - (ANSWER)to the use of cable pulled devices or motors to emulate
a human or an animal, or bring lifelike characteristics to an otherwise inanimate
object.
What factors can help a firm establish network effects? (select all that apply) -
(ANSWER)Subsidize Adoption
Move Early Strategy
Encourage the Development of Complementary Goods
Backward Compatibility
True or False- When network effects are present, the value of a product or service
decreases as the number of users grows. - (ANSWER)False
___ is a term used to refer to data sets that are too large or complex for
traditional data processing application software to adequately deal with. -
(ANSWER)Big Data
Volatile memory requires power to maintain stored information. Examples of
volatile memory include: - (ANSWER)RAM
When a firm seeks to make an existing market a subset of its product offering
(much like iPhone did with iPod, Email, Browsing), it is called: -
(ANSWER)Envelopment
