Past‚ Present‚ and Future of Computers Imagine being able to do almost anything right from your own living room. You could order a pizza‚ watch cartoons‚ or play video games with people from around the entire world. All are possible today with your computer. The beginnings of the computer started off in a rather unique way. It was first used to produce intricate designs with silk‚ a task far to long a tedious for a human to do constantly. It’s really unbelievable how the computers changed

INTRODUCTION Ever since the development of the ENIGMA (the first digital computer)‚ computers have inspired our imagination. In this period came the World War II code breaking machine designed by Alan Turing‚ and Von Neuman’s ENIAC which can be called dinosaurs compared to present day PCs. In the earlier days‚ computers were so huge that it took an entire building‚ or at least a floor to occupy one. Computers of that era were very slow by today’s standards. In the non-ending

given to a mechanical device as they began replacing the human computers. Today’s computers are electronic devices that accept data (input)‚ process that data‚ produces output‚ and then store (storage) the results. The first computer was called the ENIAC‚ which was built during World War II (1943-1946). These early computers used vacuum tubes and were very large (sometimes room size) and only found in businesses‚ Universities‚ or governments. Later‚ computers began utilizing transistors as well as

The changes that computers have undergone in the last 40 years have been colossal. So many things have changed from the ENIAC that had very little power‚ and broke down once every 15 minutes and took another 15 minutes to repair‚ to our Pentium Pro 200’s‚ and the powerful Silicon Graphics Workstations‚ the core of the machine has stayed basically the same.

SCIENTIFIC INVENTION ASSEMBLY LINE: Primitive assembly line production was first used in 1901 by Ran some Eli Olds (1864-1950)‚ an early car-maker (he manufactured the Oldsmobile‚ the first commercially successful American car). Henry Ford (1863-1947) used the first conveyor belt-based assembly-line in his car factory in 1913-14 in Ford’s Highland Park‚ Michigan plant. This type of production greatly reduced the amount of time taken to put each car together (93 minutes for a Model T) from its

The first generation computers were invented in the 1940s and 1950s. ENIAC was the world first successful electronic computer. It was invented by two scientists namely J.P.Eckert and J.W.Mauchy. It was very huge and big. Its weight was 30 tones. It could store only limited or small amount of data. The second generation computers

How Silicon-Based Semiconductors Revolutionized Computing Thanks to the introduction of semiconductors‚ computers have become over a billion times faster than one of the first built in 1946 (ENIAC). I found this research to be very fascinating at how far we have come in this industry of technology. This technology advancement has allowed us to create more powerful computing devices cheaper and more efficient than ever before. Semiconductors
