The document traces the history of computers through 5 generations: 1) 1940-1956: Vacuum tubes. The ENIAC was the first general purpose electronic computer using 19,000 vacuum tubes. 2) 1956-1963: Transistors. Computers were developed for atomic energy and were smaller than previous generations. 3) 1964-1971: Integrated circuits. Computers became smaller, cheaper, and more accessible to the mass audience. 4) 1971-present: Microprocessors. The microprocessor brought the fourth generation as circuits were built onto silicon chips. 5) Present and beyond: Artificial intelligence. Fifth generation computers are based on AI and some applications like voice recognition
History computer
- 2. The ABACO Would Be 5000 years old. It is the first tool to calculate known
- 3. Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) French mathematician. Built the first machine of Sums in 1642
- 4. Howard Aiken American physicist and mathematician applied. Built the Harvard Mark I in collaboration with IBM in 1944. Numbers of 23 digits, logarithms and trigonometric functions
- 5. First Generation - 1940-1956: Vacuum Tubes ENIAC: Electronic Numerical Integrator And Calculator. Created in 1946 First electronic digital computer general purpose. Use 19000 vacuum tubes filling a room 30x50 feet, weight 30 tons.
- 6. Generation - 1956-1963: TransistorsSecond The first computers of this generation were developed for the atomic energy industry.
- 7. Third Generation - 1964-1971: Integrated Circuits Computers for the first time became accessible to a mass audience because they were smaller and cheaper than their predecessors.
- 8. Fourth Generation - 1971-Present: Microprocessors The microprocessor brought the fourth generation of computers, as thousands of integrated circuits we rebuilt onto a single silicon chip.
- 9. Fifth Generation - Present and Beyond: Artificial Intelligence Fifth generation computing devices, based on artificial intelligence, are still in development, though there are some applications, such as voice recognition, that are being used today.
- 10. The future...? In the future computers will be capable of integrating with our brain, so real or virtual., such as Johnny Mnemonic, and running platforms so similar to our daily lives that we won't know distinguish between reality and virtuality.
