Down: 2) Magnetic tape is a type of storage media. It is widely used to back up computer data. For example, magnetic drives are often connected to a network, so when things are quiet, such as over night, the drives back up all the data onto tape catridges. Then in the morning, a technician swaps the tape for a fresh one. Perhaps keeping the last seven days, then using the oldest one the next day.4) A computer programming term. This is the name given to a "defined set of steps that can be used to complete a task". For example there are 'algorithms' worked out for sorting a list efficiently. Across: 1) This is portable storage device. You can buy Memory sticks in various sizes depending on how much you want to spend. Typical capacity is about 2 Gigabytes but more expensive types can store 8 Gigabytes or more. A memory stick connects to the computer through the USB port, so they all have a square connector on the end. When you connect the stick to the computer, you will see a 'Found New Hardware' message appear and your stick becomes one of the drives on the computer. You can then drag files off and on the stick.3) For many years, a mouse had a trackball underneath that rolled as you moved your hand back and forth. The trackball movement was then sent to the connected computer to move the mouse pointer around the screen. In order to roll, the trackball had to move on a surface that had some friction to push against. This is what a mouse mat provides. A Mouse is mainly optical technology based these days and so a mouse mat is no longer essential.5) Macro programming is similar to computer languages, except the instructions are running inside an application. For example an Office program such as Excel has an extensive macro language (called VBA) that allows an expert to extend the normal use of the application6) Another term for mobile phone. It is refering to the fact that all mobile phones work within 'cells'. Each 'cell' is the working distance around one mobile antenna that receives and transmits all calls in that area.
