SUBJECT DESCRIPTION
In today's world, information has become a key element for society, both for life
everyday as well as for the business and professional world.
Since the appearance of computers, the amount of information handled has grown exponentially, and
Only a tool like the computer is capable of processing such a volume of information in such times.
reduced. For this reason, an engineer must know well the tool through which it is generated, sent
and information is received. He must know how they work, how they interconnect creating networks, how
interconnect with external meters and the way they serve applications.
OBJECTIVE
The general objectives that the student must achieve in this subject are:
• Know the main elements of a computer and how they communicate with each other.
• Differentiate the types of computers and the different applications that run on each of them.
• Know how other elements or systems communicate with computers: sensors, actuators, etc.
• Management of basic computer applications for the engineer
