Boolean
Algebra derives
its name from
the
mathematician
George Boole
can convert
human ways of
expressing
logical
processes into a
mathematical
and electronic
form for
computation

Boolean algebra
uses three basic
logical
operators AND,
OR, and NOT.

THE MACHINE CYCLE OF A PROCESSOR

FETCH- Fetches the


instructions/ data
from memory.

DECODETranslates the
instructions into
the signals the
computer can
execute/perform.

EXECUTE- Is the
process of carrying
out the commands.

STORE- Writing the


results to memory
