| Abstract | Knowledge of information technology hardware is an essential foundation for curriculum in Information Systems. However computer and network technology is not only a complex field but is also subject to many technical developments. These characteristics place considerable demands on teaching these subjects. However complexity may be controlled by the use of abstract models. This paper describes a new high-level abstract model called B-Nodes designed to control detail by means simple diagrams allowing top-down recursive decomposition. All work to date indicates that B-Nodes provide the basis of a new pedagogical framework that assists in the development of understanding, support different levels of technical detail and is valid for both current and future generations of digital technologies. |
