c) Peripheral device status
d) Error logs and warnings

Answer 1

At the digital processor, what do you observe on the display beside "BANK: b) Memory bank and ADDRESS: address information.

Step-by-step explanation:

This refers to the physical or logical partition in the computer's memory where data is stored and the specific location within that memory bank where the data resides. Knowing which memory bank and the address of the data helps in efficiently managing and retrieving information from the computer's memory.

The device that made it possible for digital computers to efficiently process large amounts of information was the von Neumann architecture. This architecture allows a computer to store its program instructions and data in the same memory space, which simplifies the design of the computer and allows for more efficient processing of information. Digital computers, through the use of von Neumann architecture, became capable of handling complex computations more quickly and efficiently. The answer is option b.
