Computer Engineering Chapter 12: Revision Questions
and Answers
Binary The most simplistic form of data that is represented entirely by a binary
system of digits consisting of a string of consecuative ones and zeros.
Boolean A single value of either TRUE or FALSE
CAD (Computer Assisted/Aided Design) a computer technology that designs a
product and documents the design process. It can transfer code o two or three-
demensional deigrams.
CAM (Computer Assisted/Aided Manufacturing) An application technology
that uses computer software and machinery to facilitate and automate
manufacturing processes.
CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) Refers to the use of computer-
controlled machinery and automation systems in manufacturing products. CIM
utilizes CAD & CAM to provide an error - free manufacturing process that
reduces the manual labor and automates repetitive task.
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) The process where machine tools are
driven by computers rather than by manual devices, use CAD protocol to
convert spatial designs into a series of numbers.
Computer Engineering a unique field that overlaps with both electrical
engineering and includes software engineering and hardware engineering.

Computer Engineering ✓a unique field that overlaps with both electrical engineering and includes software engineering and hardware engineering.

Haptics ✓The science and physiology of touch, providing feedback to users through the sense of touch. HCI (Human Computer Interaction) ✓Computer Science, behavioral science, ergonomics, and design all merged to create the study ICs (Integrated Circuits) ✓the combination of many semiconductors and other components manufactured into the surface of semiconductor material. Ladder Logic ✓originally a written method to document the design and construction of relay racks as used in manufacturing and process control Logic ✓The system of principles underlying the arrangements of elements in a computer. RAM (Random Access Memory) ✓is used to temporarily store data on which the computer is currently working. Robots (autonomous) ✓automatically controlled, programmable, multi-purpose machines used in manufacturing (being designed/ engineered to deal with its environment on its own, and works on extended periods without constant human interaction for controlling the device) ROM (Read Only Memory) ✓comes programmed on the device and cannot be changed, or it can only be changed through specific procedures. USB (Universal Serial Bus) ✓a port used to plug in your flash drive or mouse, a Fire Wire port to plug in a digital camera, or the audio port to plug in your headphones or earbuds.
