Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is irritating to eyes, skin and respiratory system. Volcanic Smog (vog) is produced from SO2 gas and is a hazard in Hawaii. Scientists monitor SO2 emission rates at KÄ«lauea volcano. Gas Plume during the 1984 eruption of Mauna Loa, Hawaii blocks out the sun.
Control Unit (CU) A control unit (CU) handles all processor control signals. It directs all input and output flow, fetches code for instructions from microprograms and directs other units and models by providing control and timing signals.
A control element in a graphical user interface is an element of interaction, such as a button or a scroll bar. Controls are software components that a computer user interacts with through direct manipulation to read or edit information about an application. User interface libraries such as Windows Presentation Foundation, GTK+, and Cocoa, contain a collection of controls and the logic to render these. Each widget facilitates a specific type of user-computer interaction, and appears as a visible part of the application's GUI as defined by the theme and rendered by the rendering engine.
