Abstract
Microprocessors are applicable to a wide range of information processing tasks, ranging from general computing to real-time monitoring systems. The microprocessor facilitates new ways of communication and how to make use of the vast information available online and offline both at home and in workplace. Most electronic devices--including everything from computers, remote controls, washing machines, microwaves and cell phones to iPods and more--contain a built-in microprocessor. Microprocessors are at the core of personal computers, laptops, mobile phones and complex military and space systems. This work presents the general application of microprocessors.
