THE EARLIEST COMPUTING DEVICES
Brief History of Computer

The earliest data processing equipment were all manual - mechanical devices due to the absence of electricity and adequate industrial technology.

ABACUS ( 300 B.C. by the Babylonians )
• The abacus was an early aid for mathematical computations. Its only value is that it aids the memory of the human performing the calculation.

John Napier ( 1550 – 1617 )John Napier is best known as the inventor of logarithms. He also invented the so-called "Napier's bones" and made common the use of the decimal point in arithmetic and mathematics.Napier's birthplace, Merchiston Tower in Edinburgh, Scotland, is now part of the facilities of Edinburgh Napier University. After his death from the effects of gout, Napier's remains were buried in St Cuthbert's Church, Edinburgh.

NAPIER'S BONESIn 1617 an eccentric Scotsman named John Napier invented logarithms, which are a technology that allows multiplication to be performed via addition. The magic ingredient is the logarithm of each operand, which was originally obtained from a printed table. But Napier also invented an alternative to tables, where the logarithm values were carved on ivory sticks.

Blaise PascalIn 1642 Blaise Pascal, at the age of 19, he invented the Pascaline as an aid for his father who was a tax collector. Pascal built 50 of this gear-driven one-function calculator (it could only add) but couldn't sell many because of their exorbitant cost and because they really weren't that accurate (at that time it was not possible to fabricate gears with the required precision).

Pascaline or Pascal Calculator• It can be called “Arithmatique Machine”• The first calculator or adding machine to be
produced in any quantity and actually used.• It was designed and built by the French
mathematician-philosopher Blaise Pascal between 1642 and 1644. It could only do addition and subtraction, with numbers being entered by manipulating its dials.

Joseph Marie Jacquard (7 July 1752 – 7 August 1834)
A French weaver and merchant. He played an important role in the development of the earliest programmable loom (the "Jacquard loom"), which in turn played an important role in the development of other programmable machines, such as computers.

The Jacquard Loom• A mechanical loom, invented
by Joseph Marie Jacquard, first demonstrated in 1801, that simplifies the process of manufacturing textiles with complex patterns such as brocade, damask and matelasse. The loom was controlled by a "chain of cards", a number of punched cards, laced together into a continuous sequence.

Charles Babbage(26 December 1791 – 18 October 1871)
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. This machine would be able to compute tables of numbers, such as logarithm tables.
![Page 30: Introduction to Computing Lecture 01 history of computers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ef2c121a28abbc0c8b4619/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

The Analytical Engine• It was a proposed
mechanical general-purpose computer designed by English mathematician Charles Babbage.

Babbage’s Analytical Engine • 2 main parts: the
“Store” where numbers are held and the “Mill” where they were woven into new results

Ada Lovelace Augusta Ada Byron, Lady Lovelace (10 December 1815 – 27 November 1852)
•English mathematician and writer chiefly known for her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical general purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. •Her notes on the engine include what is recognised as the first Algorithm intended to be processed by a machine. Because of this, she is often described as the world's first computer programmer.•Referred to as the “First Programmer”

Herman Hollerith (February 29, 1860 – November 17, 1929)
An American statistician and inventor who developed a mechanical tabulator based on punched cards to rapidly tabulate statistics from millions of pieces of data. He was the founder of the Tabulating Machine Company that later merged to become IBM. Hollerith is widely regarded as the father of modern automatic computation.
![Page 36: Introduction to Computing Lecture 01 history of computers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ef2c121a28abbc0c8b4619/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Hollerith machine• The first automatic data processing system. It
was used to count the 1890 U.S. census. Developed by Herman Hollerith, a statistician who had worked for the Census Bureau, the system used a hand punch to record the data as holes in dollar-bill-sized punch cards and a tabulating machine to count them. The tabulating machine contained a spring-loaded pin for each potential hole in the card. When a card was placed in the reader and the handle was pushed down, the pins that passed through the holes closed electrical circuits causing counters to be incremented and a lid in the sorting box to open.

More Detail
Each card was placed into this reader. When the handle was pushed down, the data registered on the analog dials.

Generation in computer terminology is a change in technology a computer is/was being used.
Initially, the generation term was used to distinguish between varying hardware technologies. But nowadays, generation includes both hardware and software, which together make up an entire computer system.

place of transistors• A single IC has many
transistors, resistors and capacitors along with the associated circuitry.
• Integrated solid‐state circuitry, improved secondary storage devices and new input/output devices were the most important advances in this generation.

WHO INVENT THE IC?• The idea of integrating electronic circuits
into a single device was born, when the German physicist and engineer Werner Jacobi (de) developed and patented the first known integrated transistor amplifier in 1949 and the British radio engineer Geoffrey Dummer proposed to integrate a variety of standard electronic components in a monolithic semiconductor crystal in 1952. A year later, Harwick Johnson filed a patent for a prototype integrated circuit (IC).

Some computers of this generation were:• IBM-360 series• Honeywell-6000 series• PDP (Personal Data
Processor)• IBM-370/168• TDC-316

FOURTH GENERATION (1971-1980)• Very-large-scale integration (VLSI)• VLSI circuits having about 5000
transistors and other circuit elements and their associated circuits on a single chip made it possible to have microcomputers of fourth generation.

• Fourth Generation computers became more powerful, compact, reliable, and affordable. As a result, it gave rise to personal computer (PC) revolution.
• In this generation, Remote processing, Time-sharing, Real-time, Multi-programming Operating System were used.
• All the higher level languages like C and C++, DBASE, etc., were used in this generation.

The main features of Fourth Generation are:• VLSI technology used• Very cheap• Portable and reliable• Use of PC's• Very small size• Pipeline processing• No A.C. needed• Concept of internet was introduced• Great developments in the fields of
networks• Computers became easily available

FIFTH GENERATIONPresent and Beyond: Artificial Intelligence• Artificial Intelligence is
the branch of computer science concerned with making computers behave like humans. The term was coined in 1956 by John McCarthy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Artificial intelligence includes:• Games Playing
– programming computers to play games such as chess and checkers.

• Expert Systems– programming computers to
make decisions in real-life situations (for example, some expert systems help doctors diagnose diseases based on symptoms)
