Hi! A few weeks ago, in class, we saw some videos about how do Turing machines and CPUs work. Well let me explain some concepts... A Turing machine is a theoretical computing machine invented by Alan Turing (1937) to serve as an idealized model for mathematical calculation. A Turing machine consists of a line of cells known as a "tape" that can be moved back and forth, an active element known as the "head" that possesses a property known as "state" and that can change the property known as "color" of the active cell underneath it, and a set of instructions for how the head should modify the active cell and move the tape. At each step, the machine may modify the color of the active cell and change the state of the head. After this, it moves the tape one unit to the left or right. A V Neumann architecture is a design architecture for an electronic digital computer with parts consisting of a processing unit containing an arithmetic logic unit and processor registers; a control unit containing an instruction register and program counter; a memory to store both data and instructions; external mass storage; and input and output mechanisms. Now that you have this concepts clear I will put these in a mind map. A mind map is a diagram in which information is represented visually, usually with a central idea placed in the middle and associated ideas arranged around it. A very useful tool for making a mind map is this website: https://www.mindomo.com/es/.
