A diagram illustrating layers of computing from application software to physics.The diagram illustrates layers of computing, starting from the top with 'Application Software' represented by a text box with 'greater than hello world!'. Below it is 'Operating Systems' depicted with a laptop icon. 'Architecture' is shown with a series of horizontal bars. 'Micro architecture' features two blocks with arrows pointing between them. 'Logic' is represented by a rectangle with a plus sign inside. 'Digital Circuits' is shown with a logic gate symbol. 'Analog Circuits' is depicted with an operational amplifier symbol. 'Devices' is represented by a transistor symbol. Finally, 'Physics' is illustrated with an atomic model.Other Extensions
