a system that uses data to improve its output without being programmed

the process of writing rule-based computer programs

Machine learning and artificial intelligence

Computing

Traditional computer systems

Computer architecture

The operating system

Boolean logic

Data science

In this unit pupils will explore the layers of computer systems from programs to the physical components that store and execute these programs. They will discover the fundamental binary building blocks that make up computer systems and how systems are evolving for developments such as AI.
