Adakah memiliki lebih Ingatan RAM memberikan kelebihan kepada telefon pintar?

Adakah memiliki lebih Ingatan Capaian Rawak (RAM) memberikan lebih kelebihan pada telefon pintar? Ini adalah persoalan biasa muncul di fikiran semua terutamanya mereka yang ingin membeli telefon pintar baru.

Sebelum itu, apa itu RAM? RAM adalah singkatan kepada "Random Access Memory" atau di dalam bahasa Melayu bermaksud 'Ingatan Capaian Rawak'. RAM berfungsi sebagai tempat simpanan data sementara. Boleh dikatakan hampir kesemua peralatan elektronik menggunakan RAM kerana data daripada RAM dapat dibaca dengan cepat dan pantas. Fungsi RAM pada telefon pintar ketika boleh dikatakan hampir sama dengan fungsi RAM pada komputer.

Kemunculan model-model telefon pintar terbaru kini mempunyai RAM yang tinggi jika dibandingkan dengan model-model yang terdahulu. Malah, telefon pintar klon juga kini mempunyai RAM yang tinggi. Ini menunjukkan yang kapasiti RAM adalah amat penting untuk dunia telefon pintar sekarang.

Pada beberapa tahun lepas, 1GB RAM dikira sebagai cukup untuk menampung aplikasi-aplikasi ketika itu. Kemudian ia dinaikkan kepada 2GB dan seterusnya. Buat masa kini, mempunyai 2GB RAM adalah sekadar cukup-cukup makan. Walau bagaimanapun, ianya dikira masih tidak mencukupi kerana terdapat banyak aplikasi-aplikasi terbaru yang memerlukan RAM yang lebih.

Buat masa ini, mempunyai RAM sebesar 3GB adalah cukup untuk penggunaan aplikasi biasa seperti media sosial, mesej dan permainan yang bersaiz kecil. Tetapi RAM bersaiz 4GB adalah piawai terbaru untuk ketika ini di mana ianya dikira saiz yang sesuai untuk kegunaan umum.

Dari segi permainan mobil, RAM memainkan peranan penting kerana permainan mobil kini semakin banyak yang mempunyai saiz yang besar dan memerlukan kapasiti RAM yang tinggi. Malah, permainan kecil yang berkonsepkan teka-teki juga kini memerlukan RAM yang tinggi.

Tetapi prestasi permainan mobil masih lagi sangat bergantung kepada kekuatan cip pemproses grafik. Mempunyai RAM yang tinggi tetapi mempunyai cip grafik yang bertaraf rendah tidak semestinya mampu memberikan prestasi terbaik kepada sesetengah permainan mobil. 

Tugas utama RAM adalah untuk mempercepatkan proses aplikasi berfungsi. Lebih laju kelajuan, lebih cepat aplikasi dapat berfungsi. Tetapi kini ia dilihat lebih kepada berapa banyak aplikasi yang dapat dibuka dan berfungsi dalam satu masa.

Ini adalah benar kerana, data maklumat aplikasi yang dibuka disimpan di dalam RAM untuk kegunaan seterusnya tanpa perlu mengambil data maklumat dari storan. Ini membolehkan data dapat dibaca dengan pantas jika dibandingkan dengan data yang baru diambil dari storan. Proses ini hanya berlaku selagi aplikasi tidak ditutup sepenuhnya.

Kebanyakkan aplikasi popular ketika ini terutamanya aplikasi media sosial dan mesej masih lagi berjalan walaupun aplikasi ini telah ditutup. Salah satu sebab mengapa telefon mengambil banyak memori daripada RAM.

Kesimpulannya, mempunyai RAM yang mencukupi adalah amat penting dan kapasiti RAM yang tinggi mampu memberikan prestasi terbaik kepada telefon pintar.

At last, the new launch date for long awaited James Webb Telescope.

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be the largest space telescope. Photo: sciencemag.org

The new launch date was announced by NASA after the latest delayed of the James Webb Space Telescope that caused by the covid-19 pandemic. The last suspended was in March 2020 for the integration and testing. NASA, however, announced the new launch date will be on October 31, 2021 from French Guiana.

James Webb Space Telescope development started as early as 1996 with the original launch date planned for 2007. There were many delays before, in the development of this telescope for good that increased its original budget from USD500 millions, to USD 8.8 billions.

Preparing JWST for test is not an easy task. Photo: wired.com

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) works differently from the Hubble Space Telescope, in term of how it conducts its observation in the near ultraviolet, visible and near infrared. These capabilities will allow JWST to see more objects than its predecessor (Hubble Space Telescope) capable of. This is also one of the reasons, why there are many delays in the preparation of JWST during the development of this project.

The design of the Telescope also so unique to allow it to be fitted in the small Ariane 5 rocket for launch. As the result, the 6.5 meter diameter gold-coated reflector need to be folded in 18 separated panels. Other than that, it also equipped with a special sunshield made of silicon-coated and aluminium-coated Kapton to keep its instruments below 50 K (−220 °C; −370 °F).

More details about this amazing telescope can be found here from few sources such as Wikipedia and NASA itself. We all can't wait to see this future telescope in action.

Yackchal, an ancient refrigerator back in thousand years ago.

Some yackchal is bigger than the other, such as this one in Meybod, Iran. Photo: fieldstudyoftheworld.com

Refrigerator use a high amount of electrical energy in order to produce ice. Since the invention of modern refrigerator early 1800's, we never thought that people living in the past were able to have a similar invention in order to keep their food fresh longer.

It's depend on the climate of the area, people learn to preserve their foods in different ways. In the tropic regions, for example, foods are preserved by drying it with salt, or keep it in an acidic solution (turn it into a pickle).

Anyway, long time ago in, middle eastern region such as Persia, they have unique building that called Yackchal, (Persian: یخچال‎ "ice pit"; yakh meaning "ice" and chāl meaning "pit") that works same as refrigerator today. The wonderful thing about this building is, it's using the power of climate and water to trap the cold temperature and store it during the hot summer day.

Even though there are different building that called ice house that used in some countries (Europe or ancient China). Yakhchāl, was built in the areas where the temperature can get really high that require active heat transfer to take place. Compared to modern invention that using a compressor and fan, yakhchāl manipulate the natural energy to produce similar effects.

The construction of yakhchāl was started as soon as 400 BCE. During that time, Persian engineers already able to build this unique building that able to trap the cold temperature during the winter season and retain it until the summer season. It's  not only the shape of the yakhchāl is important, but also the materials used in its construction help it to isolate the heat from get into it.

The wall of yakhchāl is built with unique water-resistant mortar called sarooj, composed of sand, clay, egg whites, lime, goat hair, and ash, that is resistant to heat and at the same time water-impenetrable. While the thickness of the wall will reach up to two meters thick at the base.

The most common feature of yakhchāls, is they have access to qanat  (Iranian aqueduct), while sometimes they equipped with a system of bâdgirs (ancient design of windcatchers or wind towers). This additional design help further cool down the temperature to frigid levels during the summer days. So, there are some varieties in its architecture.

The usage of yakhchāls, will allow the ice created in it during the winter to be used throughout the summer. This will help people to keep their foods in it, but also prepare special dessert such as faloodeh, the traditional Persian ice cream.

By mimicking this special architecture, there are many applications can be used in today's world, especially in building more energy efficiency building. Most of our modern inventions relying too much on the usage of electrical energy - that also require to be generated by other sources (such as coals, hydroelectric, solar, wind, thermal and etc.). Imagine if yakhchāl's principal is used instead. How wonderful the future can be?

Beaver dam, why it is an essential for the thriving areas?

Beaver will keep on working on its dam mostly during the night. Photo: Twitter

Beaver is a nice cute creature with different functions in nature. While building its home, beaver's also creating a suitable environment for other creatures to flourish to form a complete ecosystem. Instead important to all of the animals, beaver dam also important for the environment, especially in drought control and also for the underground water supply.

Once, there are more than 60 millions of beaver in North American alone. Anyway, hunting for fur and the beaver glands make the number decreased to 6 to 12 million by 1988. There are long way to go to restore the number of beaver back to its original. While we can see the impact of drought, flooding, erosion,  and underground water shortage become more serious. This also decreasing the number's of plants and animals that thriving together with beaver dam.

There are 2 main types of beaver in the world.

North American beaver (Castor canadensis) - this species can be found on the American continent. Where most of the beaver today are found in the North, mostly in Canada. That's where the largest beaver dam can be found today.  

Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) - compared to their American cousin's, Eurasian beaver was hunted nearly to extinction in Europe. The beaver was totally extinct in Great Britain in the sixteenth century. It was said that the total number of Eurasia beaver was 100 million had fallen to 1000. With beaver protection in over 24 European countries the number of Eurasian beaver now estimated to reach to 639,000 in mainland Europe.

Beaver lodges

Other than creating the dam, beaver will also build their homes that called lodges. This dome-like home was constructed using branches and mud. The lodges often will located in the middle of the ponds and the entrances will be underwater. This lodge can be home to several extended families of monogamous parents. Sometimes there can be more than one lodges in the same beaver dam.

In the lodge there are separate areas for the beaver to drying themselves when coming out of the water and the drying area where the family lives. The dens also provided with ventilation to allow the air flows properly. Usually there will be another alternative entrance into the dens.

Foods

Beaver only eating the tree barks, leaves, small branches, twigs, roots and aquatic plants. So, it will leave other animals live in their pond. The thriving creatures from aquatic plants and animals will increase in number as long as the dam is maintained by the beaver's family. Increasing numbers of fishes and other animals will also attract migrating birds and other animals for foods and water. The beaver dam will allow beavers to reach its food source without exposing it to predators such as coyote, wild cat, bear or any other enemies.

Beaver never goes to hibernate during the winter season. It will keep enough food supplies in its' dent, for the rest of the family. Beavers eat leaves, roots and bark from aspens, willows, maples and poplar trees. They also eat aquatic plants.

Even though the beaver dam will increase the water level. The changes made by the beaver will never reach to the scales that produce by human (by creating a dam). In other words, it's not damaging, but instead, it's enrich the environment.

Important of beaver to Ecosystem

Beaver dam helps other animal to flourish and create its own ecosystem. Besides, its water catchment area keeps the area rich with life. It will also protect the area from becoming too dry during drought season - as this problem has become more serious lately, include the shortage amount of underground water.

Beaver dam slows down the flow of water that can cause an erosion. The sediment rich pond will promote growth of water plants that also become the sanctuary of small creatures, allowing bigger animals also thrive in the same area. This water catchment will avoid the nutrient in the soils from directly wash into the sea and clogged the river delta that can also cause flooding.

In the long term, the beaver dam will enrich the nearby areas as you can see it in the photos. With the increasing of vegetation, it's not only avoid further erosion, but also increase the numbers of floras and faunas in the areas. With continuous water supply provided by the beaver dam, it further prevents the desertification of the areas.  

Biggest beaver dam

So far the biggest beaver dam known to human measured, 850 m long in Alberta, Canada, is the world's biggest and can be seen from space. Beavers have been building the dam since 1975. The dam was constructed by the family of beaver from fewer generations. The beaver was known to live in groups of families.

This dam was located deep in the Wood Buffalo National Park that only realized by satellite image by a researcher. Even the ranger of the park are not aware of it existent when contacted by the BBC film crew, when they learned about the beaver dam from the researcher's website.

People keep destroying beaver dam.

There are still many people destroying beaver dams for taking part of their land. The collapse between human and beaver can only be avoided by understanding how these creatures work in enriching the ecosystem. Without understanding how's nature's works we might be not only destroying important creatures but also ourselves.
