Stephen Hawking is the former Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge and author of A Brief History of Time which was an international bestseller. Now Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology at Cambridge, his other books for the general reader include A Briefer History of Time, the essay collection Black Holes and Baby Universe and The Universe in a Nutshell.

In 1963, Hawking contracted motor neurone disease and was given two years to live. Yet he went on to Cambridge to become a brilliant researcher and Professorial Fellow at Gonville and Caius College. From 1979 to 2009 he held the post of Lucasian Professor at Cambridge, the chair held by Isaac Newton in 1663. Professor Hawking has over a dozen honorary degrees and was awarded the CBE in 1982. He is a fellow of the Royal Society and a Member of the US National Academy of Science. Stephen Hawking is regarded as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists since Einstein.

What is the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit?

What is the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit?

Answer: In computing, 32-bit and 64-bit are two different types of processors. The bit number (usually 8, 16, 32, or 64) refers to how much memory a processor can access from theCPU register.
Most computers made in the 1990s and early 200s were 32-bit machines. A 32-bit system can access 232 (4,294,967,296) memory addresses. Practically speaking, a 32-bit computer is limited to accessing 4,294,967,296 bytes (4 GB) of RAM. Since most computers released over the past two decades were built on a 32-bit architecture, most operating systems were designed to run on a 32-bit processor.
▶ Around 2008, 64-bit processors became mainstream and personal computersstarting including 64-bit CPUs. Therefore, popular operating systems, such as Windowsand Mac OS X began shipping in both 32-bit and 64-bit editions, which allowed them to run on either 32 or 64-bit hardware.
While a 32-bit processor can access 232 memory addresses, a 64-bit processor can access 264memory addresses. This is not twice as much as a 32-bit processor, but rather 232(4,294,967,296) times more. This means a 64-bit machine could theoretically access 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 memory addresses or more than 18 billion GB of RAM. However, as of 2013, there are few computers that can physically support more than 64 GB of RAM.
While many 32-bit programs can run on a 64-bit operating system (OS), 64-bit programs are not compatible with 32-bit operating systems. Additionally, many 32-bit drivers and systemutilities are incompatible with 64-bit systems. Therefore, when purchasing or downloading new software, it is important to know if a 32-bit or 64-bit OS is installed on your computer.




Definition: In the personal computing world, 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the type of central processing unitoperating systemdriver, software program, etc. that utilizes that particular architecture.
32-bit hardware and software is often referred to as x86 or x86-32. 64-bit hardware and software is often referred to as x64 or x86-64.
32-bit systems utilize data in 32-bit pieces while 64-bit systems utilize data in 64-bit pieces. In general, the more data that can be processed at once, the faster the system can operate. There are several other advantages to a 64-bit system as well, most practically the ability to use significantly greater amounts of physical memory.
Most new processors today are based on the 64-bit architecture and support 64-bit operating systems. These processors are also fully compatible with 32-bit operating systems.
