Wilk Elektronik

Wilk Elektronik is a computer science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Wilk Elektronik rather than just read about it. In short: Wilk Elektronik is a Polish manufacturer of computer memory under the brand name "GOODRAM" based in Łaziska Górne. After the bankruptcy of Qimonda it remains the only European producer of RAM modules.

Key takeaways

Wilk Elektronik belongs to computer science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Wilk Elektronik to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Wilk Elektronik from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Wilk Elektronik is a Polish manufacturer of computer memory under the brand name "GOODRAM" based in Łaziska Górne. After the bankruptcy of Qimonda it remains the only European producer of RAM modules.

History The company was established in Tychy in 1991 as a RAM distributor. In 1996 it became the leader in the Polish memory distribution market. In 2003 the company moved to Łaziska Górne where it has been manufacturing its own products under the brand name "GOODRAM" ever since. Another brand, "Gooddrive", under which flash drives and SSD had been sold, was replaced in 2011 with the unified "GOODRAM" brand. Since 2008, WE has been the official distributor of Toshiba flash products for Central Europe as well as Middle East and Africa. It also cooperates with Elpida, Micron and Samsung. In 2009, Wilk Elektronik's revenues reached above 100 mil. USD. W.E. was ranked 43rd in a 2009 ranking of 200 Polish IT-companies compiled by Computerworld.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Wilk Elektronik

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Wilk Elektronik claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In computer science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Wilk Elektronik before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Wilk Elektronik ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Wilk Elektronik

In research: Wilk Elektronik appears in computer science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Wilk Elektronik in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Wilk Elektronik is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Computer hardware companies, Computer memory companies, Electronics companies established in 1991, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Wilk Elektronik outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.

Frequently asked questions

What is Wilk Elektronik in simple terms?

Why does Wilk Elektronik matter?

Because it connects several computer science ideas at once: it gives you a definition you can apply, a quantity you can calculate, and a way to check whether a result is plausible.
