`log-on/log-off
`Log-on/log-off is making a connection and breaking a connection between a user
`and the computer. The log-on requires users to sign in and identify themselves.
`The log-off breaks the connection. Service bureaus charge their customers from
`the time they log-on until the time they log-off.
`
`logic
`Logic refers to a sequence of operations that is performed by the hardware or the
`software. Hardware logic is the circuits and chips that perform the computing
`and controlling operations of the computer. Software logic, or program logic, is
`the sequence of instructions in a program.
`Note: Logic is not the same as logical. Logical refers to the design of a system,
`rather than its physical implementation. See logical vs physical.
`
`logic analyzer
`(1) A logic analyzer is a device that monitors the performance of a computer by
`timing various segments of the running programs. The total running time and
`the time spent in selected progam modules is analyzed and displayed in order to
`isolate the code that is the least efficient.
`
`(2) A logic analyzer is a device that is used to test and diagnose an electronic
`system, which includes an oscilloscope for displaying various digital states.
`
`logic array
`Same as gate array or PIA.
`
`logic bomb
`A logic bomb is a program that destroys data; for example, it may reformat the
`hard disk or randomly insert garbage into data files. A logic bomb may be
`brought into a personal computer by downloading a public-domain program that
`has been tampered with. Once executed, the logic bomb usually does its damage
`right away, whereas a software virus slowly invades a system and attaches itself to
`other programs.
`
`logic chip
`A logic chip is a chip that performs logic functions, such as processing and
`controlling. Contrast with memory chip, which functions as internal working
`storage.
