Multimedia Hardware & Software

1. Two type of memory :                           -Random Access Memory (RAM):VOLATILE STORAGE.enable simaltaneous running of application storage that allow to read and write data many time                                     -Read only memory(ROM):is non-volatile storage .The bios program that boost up the computed

2. Input devises                                          -optical character recognition (ocr)        -Universal product code (upc)               output devises                                        -stereo                                                    -monitor                                                -projector                                                -printer

3. what are the important of authoring software:                                                -Organize and edit the multimedia elements of multimedia project             -Design screen layout using templates  -Create interactivity                               -assembling diverse multimedia elements into a single,cohesive product

4. Turn at authoring tool                           -card and page-based                           -element are arranged like pages of a look                                                         -tools contain media object such as button,text field and graphic object

5. 4 Basic Stages:

5.1. planning and costing                                          designing and producing                                      Testing                                                                   Delivering

6. Differentiate between Alpha Testing &Beta Testing

6.1. Alpha Testing                                                   -perform only by user within the organization as a internal acceptance testing                          -there may be missing part of context or function                                                              -review the concept,format,layout and user interface

6.2. Beta Testing                                                        -evaluate just before the final release               -fully bugs and content error                             -testing group should not include people who involved in the project

7. Main Roles in the Team                         -Project manager:oversee the entire project ;responsible for overall development ;assign task                       -Multimedia designer:look at overall content ,creates a structure for the content ;determine the elements           -Interface designer:designing each screen of page interface that is user friendly                                                   -Writer:write text screen to deliver message                                                 -Video:focus on audio and video message                                                 -Multimedia programme :programmers integrate all the elements of the project using on authoring system
