Typically, when an algorithm is associated with processing information, data is read from an input source, written to an output device, and / or stored for further processing.

Computers ( and computors ), models of computation: A computer ( or human " computor ") is a restricted type of machine, a " discrete deterministic mechanical device " that blindly follows its instructions.

The device uses a magnet to bend the trajectory of a beam of ions, and the amount of deflection is determined by the ratio of an atom's mass to its charge.

The device he designed, later known as a Michelson interferometer, sent yellow light from a sodium flame ( for alignment ), or white light ( for the actual observations ), through a half-silvered mirror that was used to split it into two beams travelling at right angles to one another.

Wire gauze ( G ) confines the sodium metal to accumulating at the top of the collection device ( P ).

Typical concentration values fall somewhere in this range and are tailored to produce the desired properties in the device that the semiconductor is intended for.

The most widely used device is determining seller concentration is the Concentration Ratio.

The device used filtered sea water from Scripps Institute of Oceanography and reduced the salt concentration from 35, 000 ppm to 51 ppm.

The scientific payload included a UV spectrometer, temperature and pressure sensors, a water concentration meter, a gas-phase chromatograph, an X-ray spectrometer, a mass spectrometer, and a surface sampling device.

The landers were identical to that of the previous five Venera missions and were to study the atmosphere and surface, each had instruments to study temperature, pressure, a UV spectrometer, a water concentration meter, a gas-phase chromatograph, an X-ray spectrometer, a mass spectrometer and a surface sampling device.

The scientific payload included a UV spectrometer, temperature and pressure sensors, a water concentration meter, a gas-phase chromatograph, an X-ray spectrometer, a mass spectrometer, and a surface sampling device.

The device is therefore a means of selective concentration of, for example, minerals.

An anaesthetic vaporiser is a device generally attached to an anaesthetic machine which delivers a given concentration of a volatile anaesthetic agent.

Before the vehicle's motor can be started, the driver first must exhale into the device ; if the resultant breath-alcohol concentration analyzed result is greater than the programmed blood alcohol concentration — usually 0. 02 % or 0. 04 %, the device prevents the engine from being started.

A conviction of Driving While Impaired with a blood alcohol concentration of 0. 15 or more or another conviction within the past seven years will require an ignition interlock device to be installed on the vehicle.

Since the use of such a device would put out a lot of energy, Takashima uses her scanners to pinpoint an area of the station with a high concentration of unidentified energy use.

* Blinkers: A cup-shaped device used to limit a horse's vision during a race and improve concentration.

* In a discharging battery or galvanic cell ( diagram at right ) the anode is the negative terminal since that is where the current flows into " the device " ( i. e. the battery cell ).

Since the later discovery of the electron, an easier to remember, and more durably correct technically although historically false, etymology has been suggested: anode, from the Greek anodos, ' way up ', ' the way ( up ) out of the cell ( or other device ) for electrons '.

The flow of electrons is always from anode to cathode outside of the cell or device, regardless of the cell or device type and operating mode, with the exception of diodes, where electrode naming always assumes current in the forward direction ( that of the arrow symbol ), i. e., electrons flow in the opposite direction, even when the diode reverse-conducts either by accident ( breakdown of a normal diode ) or by design ( breakdown of a Zener diode, photo-current of a photodiode or solar cell ).

Well-funded groups like Canada's Ballard Power Systems are also working to develop a " regenerative fuel cell ", a device that can generate hydrogen and oxygen when power is available, and combine these efficiently when power is needed.

* Electrochemical cell, a device used to convert chemical energy to electrical energy

* In a discharging battery or a galvanic cell the cathode is the positive terminal since that is where the current flows out of the device ( see drawing ).

Since the later discovery of the electron, an easier to remember, and more durably technically correct ( although historically false ), etymology has been suggested: cathode, from the Greek kathodos, ' way down ', ' the way ( down ) into the cell ( or other device ) for electrons '.

The flow of electrons is almost always from anode to cathode outside of the cell or device, regardless of the cell or device type and operating mode.
