Introduction
Everyday , we all use computers and store
enormous amount of data for further processing
, we also have memory storage facilities in
mobile phones, play stations & televisions too
This started from calculators and the most
recent flash memories. Recently with the rise of
external hard disk the memory capacity storage
has become almost infinite.
What does ( memory ) mean ?
 In
psychology , it is an organism's mental ability
to store, retain, and recall information .
 From an information processing perspective there
are three main stages in the formation and
retrieval of memory .
creation of a record
of the permanent
encoded information .
Retrieval
storage
Encoding
receiving, processing
and combining of
received information .
calling back the
stored information in
response to some cue
for use in a process
or activity .
three main stages in the
formation and retrieval of memory
Brain memory V.S computer memory
Human Brain: The Power House of
Everything .!
So far, we have never heard of anybody's brain being "overloaded"
because it has ran out of memory.
Human Brain weighs more than electronic memory storage devices.
It is bigger too. It may be slower in performing some calculations
than computers. It may not perform all automated jobs that a
computer performs .
Human Brain: The Power House of
Everything .!
We all know that the memory of the brain is not absolute (the average
brain can hold about 100 million megabytes of memory !!!). It does not
have set files or directories that can be deleted, copied or archived like
those of a computer. For example, a particular person who thought he
had memorized a telephone number for good suddenly realizes he can't
recall the number. But some half-a-day later, he may suddenly recall the
number again. It is a strange phenomenal that we still can't really
explain
Human Brain: The Power House of
Everything .!
The beauty of Human Brain is it can analyze, integrate, decide, learn,
teach etc... And many such things which computer memories can't. The
computer memory can hold various details, but cannot understand. For
e.g.; It can get the details of Sun in few micro-seconds, but it cannot
understand or see the Sun. It can calculate and store distance between
stars and planets, but it doesn't know what they are..! It can save data
and store complicated records, but Human Brain creates a purpose for
those data. The improvements in every inch of the memory storage
devices are done with Human Brains, but all these developments are for
the Humans, by the Humans.
Human Brain: The Power House of
Everything .!
The Human Brain can process emotions too. It controls the most complex
mechanism, the most complex machine in the world..." The Human
Being"...! The brain has various sections performing various tasks.
Emotional centre takes care of the emotions, the memory centre stores
data which can be processed with any kind of matter, it has nervous
centre which controls every movement and reflexes of Human Being.
When we talk about the memory storage capacity of Human Brain, it is
definitely infinite...!
One should keep in mind that whatever we see is what we learn.
Whatever we experience is what we learn & this learning is end-less…
Computers & Other memory
storage devices !!
Computers have more than one form of memory. We can generally
classify them into primary and secondary memory. Primary memory is
used as a form of temporary memory for calculation processes and
storage of temporary values. Secondary memory often comes in the
form of hard disks, removable disk drives and tape drives. Secondary
memory is used for the storage of most of a system's data, programs
and all other permanent data that should stay there even when the
power is turned off.
Computers & Other memory
storage devices !!
Computers have limited memory capacity, even though we have lots
of additional external aids for memory storage like external hard
disks, flash memories, memory cards etc.. These devices are just
electronic devices which store data. These data gets distributed
around various "sectors" on a compact disk or the memory slot.
These are stored in a language which are only "0"s & "1"s. They
can be arranged, edited, formatted, and retrieved when ever
required. Let us say for e.g. we have a computer of memory 160
GB
Computers & Other memory
storage devices !!
So we can store data s up to say 140 GB easily. After that
there is always a limitation that it can no more accept data .
The effect of such huge memory storage results in slowing
down the processor. So the speeds of retrieval or any
operation performed are slow. These are also used in
"Black Boxes" of an aircraft to store data which remains
undistracted even after plane crash. These types of
memories are modified to store data.
The fusion between human carbon
and artificial silicon
Now, we r going to talk about fusion of human carbon and artificial
silicon, as an example; if our memory became weak we can put
this chip and store the information we want and recall it at
anytime we want., So we can use this ideas in education that the
college(student) will not have to concentrate on words said as all
words will be recorded to this memory ,so the concept of education
will change totally and meaning of intelligent too..
The fusion between human carbon
and artificial silicon
For a Practical example, this fusion was applied on mice,
they found that they can produce thoughts from one
mouse to another, the signal electronically goes to the
another mouse in other lab.
Chips Coming to a Brain Near You

Professor Theodore W. Berger, director of the Center for Neural
Engineering at the University of Southern California, is creating a
silicon chip implant that mimics the hippocampus, an area of the
brain known for creating memories. If successful, the artificial brain
prosthesis could replace its biological counterpart, enabling people
who suffer from memory disorders to regain the ability to store new
memories.
How to Edit the Function of the
Hippocampus

Forming new long-term memories may involve such tasks as learning
to recognize a new face, or remembering a telephone number or
directions to a new location. Success depend on the proper functioning
of the hippocampus. While this part of the brain doesn't store longterm memories, it re-encodes short-term memory so it can be stored as
long-term memory.
