Computational Systems

The computation systems can be defined as the systems that are capable of solving a problem that includes calculations either mathematical or logical, and are able to produce the result as an output. For example, a simple calculator that is given a set of numbers and operators as input and produces the result as an output can be defined as a computational system. The above example is a simple illustration only, the computational systems range from simple devices to complex devices such as the systems that control the SpaceX companies, Starlink satellites which are being quite recently seen in the skies at many places globally.

While each of us has had a reading of our blood pressure taken, many of us may not know what blood pressure actually means. Blood pressure is expressed as a ratio of the maximum (systolic) and minimum (diastolic) pressure found in the aorta during one cardiac cycle. These pressure values are measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Determining abnormal blood pressure is critical for diagnosing and averting a number of serious health problems (e.g. heart disease and stroke). Doctors therefore make decisions about the potential for serious health problems based on a few simple calculations. One simple calculation of interest is mean arterial pressure (MAP). The mean arterial pressure is the average pressure during the cardiac cycle. The MAP of a normal, resting heart can be computed by the formula: MAP = DP + (1/3)PP where DP is the diastolic pressure and PP is the pulse pressure. Create a Java class file called MeanArterialPressure. This program will compute a user's mean arterial…
