HISTORY OF COMPUTER
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
 In information society the
  focus of commerce is on
  the generation and
  distribution of
  information. Computer is
  changing the ways we
  communicate, do business
  and learn about the
  different branches of
  Education.
WHAT IS COMPUTER?
 The “Computer” is derived from the word “Compute", which
  means to calculate. so Computer is normally considered to be
  a calculating device.

                  OR
INPUT                 PROCESSING                      OUTPUT
USES OF COMPUTER
 We can store data in a computer and retrieve stored data
  when we needed.
 We can send message to our friends, relative and family
  anywhere in the world by connecting computer with
  internet.
 Medical sciences and Biotechnology are using computer
  to diagnoses the diseases of patient in hospital.
 For Entertainment purposes.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
ABACUS:                            PICTURE
 The earliest device that
  qualifies as a computer is the
  abacus. The abacus was
  invented 5,000 years ago in
  Asia Minor and still in use
  today .This device is allows
  users to calculate ,by sliding
  beads arranged a work.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
JOHN NAIPER(1550-1617) PICTURE

 John Napier was a Scottish
  mathematician .He made the
  first manual calculating device
  after Abacus .It was called John
  Napier bones or cardboard
  multiplication calculator. In
  addition to multiplication this
  machine was also used to
  calculate square roots and
  cube roots.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
BLAISE PASCAL(1623-1162)            PICTURE
 In 1942 Blaise Pascal, The 18
  year old son of French tax
  collector, invented a numerical
  wheel calculator to help his
  father in calculation. This
  device was known as
  “PASCALINE” and was only able
  to Add two numbers.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
BARRON GOTTFRIED(1646-
1716)                              PICTURE
 In 1694,a German philosopher
  and mathematician Barron
  gottfried wilhelm von jeibniz
  made some improvement in
  Pascal machine. He added
  features of multiplication and
  division. The machine was able
  to perform these operation by
  using repeated addition and
  subtraction.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
CHARLES XAVIER (1785-1870)        PICTURE
 Charles Xavier Thomas De
  Colmar, a Frenchman, invented
  a machine in 1820 that could
  perform the four basic
  Arithmetic function. This
  machine was Arithmometer.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
CHARLES BABBAGE(1791-1871) PICTURE
 An English mathematician
  ,Professor Charles Babbage made
  a “Difference Engine” in
  1833,which was powered by
  steam to solve mathematical
  equations. After ten years, in 1842
  he made a general purpose
  computer named “Analytical
  Engine". this Engine could
  Add,subtracted,multiply and
  divide in automatic sequence at a
  rate of 60 addition per second.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
GEORGE BOOLE(1815-1864)            PICTURE
 George Boole clarified the
  binary system of Algebra, that
  any mathematical equation
  could be stated either true of
  false.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER
HERMAN HOLLERITH(1862-
1929)                             PICTURE
 In 1890, an American inventor
  Herman Hollerith applied the
  idea of punch boards in the
  form of for input and output.
  He a punched card tabulating
  machine.
GENERATIONS OF COMPUTER
GENERATION OF COMPUTER

 The steps of technological differences are called
  generations.
 In 1941 German engineers had developed a computer
  named Z3 to design airplanes and missiles.
 In 1943the British made a computer named Colossus to
  break secret codes during World War 2.
FIRST GENERATION OF COMPUTER
 First Generation of Computer were characterized by the
  fact that operating instructions were made-to-order for
  the specific task for which the computer was to be used.
 Each computer had a different binary coded program
  called machine language that told it how to operate.
THE DISTINCT FEATURES OF 1st G
 VACUUM TUBES: Vacuum tubes were the fragile glass
  devices that can control and amplify electronic signal.
 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: Operating instruction were
  used to operate computer for specific tasks.
 MACHINE LANGUAGE: Different Binary coded program for
  different comp

 Vacuum tubes were the only        First generation computer

  during those days.                Air Conditioning required.
 Vacuum tubes technology           Non-portable

  computation in millisecond.
SECOND GENERATION OF
COMPUTER
 In 1948 with the invention of transistor, vacuum tubes
  replaced with transistors.
 As a result, the size of electronic machinery has been
  shrunk.
 2nd generation computer replaced machine language to
  assembly language allowing abbreviated programming
  code to replace long difficult binary code
2nd GENERATION OF COMPUTER
ADVANTAGES                         DISADVANTAGES
 Smaller in size as compared to    Air conditioning required.
  1st Generation computer.          Frequently maintenance
 Less heat generated.               required.
 Better portability.               Commercial production was
                                     difficult and costly.
THIRD GENERATION OF COMPUTER
 The invention of the silicon IC(Integrated circuit) by
  Robert Noyce in 1958 allowed dozens of transistor to be
  put on a single chip. This packaging made it possible to
  build computer that were smaller,faster,and cheaper
  than their transistorized predecessors.
 Another third generation development included the use
  of an operating system that allowed machines to run
  many different program at once with a central program
  that monitored and coordinated the computer memory.
3rd GENERATION OF COMPUTER
ADVANTAGES                         DISADVANTAGES
 Smaller in size as compared to    Air conditioning required in
  previous generation                many cases.
