Sensors:

-weather sensors

-heart-rate monitors in hospitals

-fire alarm

-timers used in microwaves, races

1.ADC:

 (analogue digital converters) converts a continuous quantity to a discrete time digital representation.

2.Knowledge Base: what you will be dealing with

Eg.(there is rain)

3.Rule Base(formulas)

Eg.heart rate monitor(DANGER>ALARM)

4.Inference Enigma Alarm(google rule)

5.Hardware?

(monitor etc.)

6. Software

Modelling =simulating =.variables =answering ''what if'' question=

x3 types of processing:(any type of computer work where something goes in and comes out differently)

1. Batch processing.eg.Cheques-pile up cheques and at down time insert the cheques into a machine instead of doing it straight away.
2. Real time processing(happens now).In-Out-In.Anywhere where response is needed (right now) involving pc's for example a nuclear powerplant.

Online processing: down an internet connection with inputs.The processing is done somewhere else not on the computer your currently using. For example when you purchase airline tickets online your using your keyboard to do it however its been completed on a different computer somewhere else.
