What Is A Computer?
A computer is an electronic device, operating under the control of instructions (software) stored in its own memory unit, that can accept data (input), manipulate data (process), and produce information (output) from the processing. Generally, the term is used to describe a collection of devices that function together as a system.
14

What was the first computer?

The first computers were people! "Computer" was originally a job title: it was used to describe those human beings (predominantly women) whose job was to perform the repetitive calculations required to compute such things as navigational tables, tide charts, and planetary positions for astronomical purpose.

Napier's Bones
In 1617 an eccentric (some say mad) Scotsman named John Napier invented logarithms, which are a technology that allows multiplication to be performed via addition. The logarithm values were carved on ivory sticks which are now called Napier's Bones.

Gear Driven Calculator

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) made drawings of gear-driven calculating machines but apparently never built any.

Stepped Reckoner
After a few years after Pascal, the German Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (co-inventor with Newton of calculus) managed to build a four-function (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) calculator that he called the stepped reckoner

Punched Cards
In 1801 the Frenchman Joseph Marie Jacquard invented a power loom that could base its weave (and hence the design on the fabric) upon a pattern automatically read from punched wooden cards, held together in a long row by rope. Descendents of these punched cards have been in use ever since

Difference Engine
By 1822 the English mathematician Charles Babbage was proposing a steam driven calculating machine the size of a room, which he called the Difference Engine
In 1833 he designed Analytic Engine could store numbers ,calculating mill used punched metal cards for instructions,powered by steam,accurate to six decimal places.

Mark I
The first computer Mark I built by Harvard and IBM in 1944. This was the first programmable digital computer made in U.S. It was not a purely electronic computer. As it was constructed out of switches, relays, rotating shafts, and clutches. The machine weighed 5 tons, incorporated 500 miles of wire, was 8 feet tall and 51 feet long, and had a 50 ft rotating shaft running its length, turned by a 5 horsepower electric motor.

First Computer Bug

Grace Hopper a programmer found the first computer "bug": a dead moth that had gotten into the Mark I and whose wings were blocking the reading of the holes in the paper tape, she is credited for coining the word "debugging" to describe the work to eliminate program faults. Mark I and whose wings were blocking the reading of the holes in the paper tape

Generations of Computer
History of computer is divided in to five generations Each generation is characterized by major technological development Fundamental changes in terms of o Size o Cost o Power o Efficiency o Reliability
37

First Generation(Vacuum Tube1941-1956)

First Generation Electronic Computers used Vacuum Tubes Vacuum tubes are glass tubes with circuits inside. Vacuum tubes have no air inside of them, which protects the circuitry.

ENIAC - 1946
Electronic numerical integrator & computing first fully electronic digital computer built in the U.S. Created at the University Of Pennsylvania by J. Presper Eckert (1919 - 1995) and John W. &Mauchly (1907 - 1980) ENIAC weighed 30 tons contained 18,000 vacuum tubes Cost a paltry $487,000

Second Generation 1955-1964

Transistors were used in the circuits. The input operations were performed using punched cards and magnetic tapes and for output operations, punched cards and papers were used. For external storage magnetic tapes were used. The orientation was towards multiple users i.e. the machine was capable to process multiple tasks concurrently.
43

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

The high level languages like FORTRAN, COBOL, BASIC etc. were used as the languages by the computer. Example of Computers: IBM 1400 and 7000 series, General Electric 635 , PDP 1, NCR & RCA produced small transistor machines.

44

First Transistor
Uses Silicon In 1948 John Bardeen, Walter Brattain & William -Shockley discovered the "transfer resistor"; later labeled the transistor. won a Nobel prize

45

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Third Generation

1965-1974

Integrated circuits replaced transistors. Inspite of their smaller size they were capable to perform better than transistors. For data input and output operations monitors and keyboards replaced the punched cards. For external storage magnetic disks were used. Sophisticated operating systems, which were capable of handling several jobs concurrently were used.
46

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

More advanced high level languages like PASCAL were used. Example of computers:1971 - 4004 First microprocessor All CPU components on a single chip 4 bit

Followed in 1972 by 8008

8 bit Both designed for specific applications

1974 - 8080
Intels first general purpose microprocessor
47

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Integrated Circuits

Third Generation Computers used Integrated Circuits (chips). Integrated Circuits are transistors, resistors, and capacitors integrated together into a single chip 48

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Fourth Generation 1975-1989

The circuits used VLSI and microprocessors of virtually microscopic size, which led to drastic cut on the size of computer. The input output devices were the same monitors, keyboard, printer etc. Micro computers have evolved. Magnetic disks were the primary devices used for external storage.
49

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

The use of special software for maintaining large data bases became popular. The application software for micro computer essentially became popular in this generation. Example of computers:1975, 801 minicomputer project (IBM) RISC Berkeley RISC I processor 1986, IBM commercial RISC workstation product, RT PC.
50

Fifth Generation 1990-present

The computers of this generation use optic fibre technology to handle Artificial Intelligence. These computers have capacity to think and reason which can be used to solve problems where human intelligence is required. Expert Systems are examples of systems implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI).
