Logic Systems II
Objectives
Based on the basic knowledge acquired in Logic Systems I, this discipline aims to give the student a more detailed view on the way computers work, thus contributing to demystify the "box"...
Students will learn the basic skills of algorithm development who will become an handy tool to support the work to be done in several disciplines throughout their course.
The concept of microprocessor (CPU - Central Processing Unit) is presented based on the knowledge previously acquired in Logic Systems I. A more detailed analysis of the operation of the microprocessors will be supplied.
Small projects will be developed that will allow the understanding of the operation of the components that constitute the heart of the computer.
