What is Von Neumann Bottleneck?
The limited throughput between the CPU and memory. The amount of work that a CPU can get done in the time that it takes to retrieve a piece of information from memory is increasing. As this increases, the amount of time a CPU spends waiting for data to be fetched from memory (i.e. "doing nothing") outpaces the amount of time the CPU spends doing actual work. Thus, a faster CPU no longer translates to a faster computer - the limiting part ("bottleneck") of the computer becomes the throughut (bandwidth and latency) between the CPU and memory. This is the "Von Neumann Bottleneck". It is called the "Von Neumann" bottleneck because it's a potential bottleneck on computers that use "von neumann architecture" (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_neumann_architecture ), which is pretty much every general purpose computer in existence today. The concept of the "Von Nuemann Bottleneck" has been receiving increased attention lately, as many people feel that it is becoming a problem that will only be overcome with fundamental design changes in computer and/or CPU architecure.

Which part of a machine language instruction specifies data on which an operation acts?
False, Op code specifies the operation to perform, the operand specifies the data.
What is an advtange of loading applications entirely into RAM rather than loading part of an application into virtual memory?
Faster execution, access and throughput.
What is something that hinders progress or an unstable part of a plan called?
A bottleneck is something that hinders progress or an unstable part of a plan. It refers to a point where the flow of work is impeded, causing delays in the overall process.
What is a reduction in population size caused by a natural disaster?
Bottleneck Effect. It's when part of a population leaves or dies, changing the gene pool for better or for worse.
