Different types of Computers  Desktop Computer  Servers  Game Consoles  Smartphones and Tablets  Laptops Benefits of Computers in Normal Circumstances Computer works fast. Computer works consistently. Computer remembers a huge amount of stuffs. Computers are loyal. Computer works hard. HISTORY OF COMPUTER: BASIC COMPUTING PERIODS In 1613, the word "computer" was used for the first time to describe a person who did calculations or analyses. This was still done until the middle of the 20th century. Tally sticks The counting stick was used in the past to keep track of numbers, amounts, and maybe even messages. Abacus The abacus is a mechanical tool that helps people do math calculations. Napier’s Bones John Napier- first device to do math in 1614. It worked by moving rods around and putting them on boards that were mad e for that purpose. Slide Rule William Oughtred is making the first slide rule in 1622. Most of the time, this method is not used to add or take away. Pascaline  Invented by Blaise Pascal in 1642.  It was its limitation to addition and subtraction.  It is too expensive. Stepped Reckoner  Invented by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in 1672.  The machine that can add, subtract, multiply and divide automatically Jacquard Loom  The Jacquard loom is a mechanical loom, invented by Joseph-Marie Jacquard in 1881.  It is an automatic loom controlled by punched cards. Arithmometer  A mechanical calculator invented by Thomas de Colmar in 1820,  The first mass-produced calculating machine Difference Engine and Analytical Engine  It an automatic, mechanical calculator designed to tabulate polynomial functions.  Invented by Charles Babbage in 1822 and 1834  It is the first mechanical computer. First Computer Programmer In 1840, Augusta Ada Byron suggests to Babbage that he use the binary system.  She writes programs for the Analytical Engine.

Aiken in 1943  The first electro-mechanical computer Z1  The first programmable computer.  Created by Konrad Zuse in Germany from 1936 to 1938.  To program the Z1 required that the user insert punch tape into a punch tape reader and all output was also generated through punch tape. Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC)  It was the first electronic digital computing device.  Invented by Professor John Atanasoff and graduate student Clifford Berry at Iowa State University between 1939 and 1942. ENIAC  ENIAC - Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer.  It was the first electronic general-purpose computer.  Completed in 1946.  Developed by John Presper Eckert and John Mauchly. UNIVAC 1 The first business computer was the UNIVAC I, which was also called the U NIVersal Automatic Computer 1. John Presper Eckert and John Mauchly worked together to make this groun dbreaking machine with great care. EDVAC stands for "Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer." Joh n von Neumann came up with the idea for and built the first stored program computer in 1952. The device has a memory that can hold both a program and information. The First Portable Computer  Osborne 1 – the first portable computer.  Released in 1981 by the Osborne Computer Corporation. The First Computer Company The first computer company was the Electronic Controls Company. Founded in 1949 by John Presper Eckert and John Mauchly BASIC COMPUTING AGES Premechanical 3000 BCE to 1450 CE. The premechanical period is the earliest stage in the development of information technology. Mechanical Ages- The mechanical age is when we first start to see connections between our current technology and its ancestors. Electromechanical- At the moment, we are getting close to tools that are similar to the ones we have now. The time between 1840 and 1940 is called the ;electromechanical age. Alexander Graham Bell- invented the telephone in 1876. 1894- Guglielmo Marconi made the first gadget that could send and receive radio waves. 1940s, Harvard University made the first automatic digital computer, called the Mark 1. GENERATIONS OF COMPUTER There are five generations of computer: First generation – 1946 to 1958 Second generation – 1959 to 1964 Third generation – 1965 to 1970 Fourth generation – 1971 to Today Fifth generation – Today to future The First Generation vacuum tubes were used for circuitry and magnetic drums were used to store memory. Only one job could be done on these computers at a time. The Second Generation When transistors came along, they replaced vacuum tubes, which meant With the invention of the microprocessor, computers moved into their fourth generation, in which many integrated circuits were put on a single silicon chip. The Third Generation The process of making transistors smaller and putting them on silicon chips, which are also called semiconductors, has made a big difference in how fast and well computers work. The Fourth Generation When the fourth generation of computers came out, graphical user interfaces (GUIs) got a lot better. Fifth Generation, which is based on the area of Artificial Intelligence (AI). BASIC OPERATION OF A COMPUTER 1. The computer accepts information in the form of programs and data through an input unit and stores it in memory. 2. Information stored in the memory is fetched, under program control, into an arithmetic and logic unit, where it is processed. 3. Processing of information is directed by the control unit in the microprocessor. 4. Resulting information leaves the computer through an output unit. PARTS OF THE COMPUTER ACCORDING TO FUNCTION 1. Processing unit = the "brain" of the computer where processing occurs. The central processing unit (CPU), contained in the system unit box, manipulates (calculates, compares) data supplied by input and storage devices. While "thinking," it temporarily stores results in its internal memory, called RAM. Feedback is returned to the user via output devices. 2. Input devices = allow the user to send information to the computer. These include: keyboard, mouse, joystick, trackball, touch-sensitive monitor, voice-input. 3. Output devices = receive information from the CPU and return feedback to the user. These include: monitor, printer, speakers 4. Storage units = permanent disk storage, using floppy, hard disks, CD- ROMs, memory cards, memory sticks. PARTS OF THE COMPUTER ACCORDING TO THEIR LOCATION 1. External parts – computer devices and peripherals that are connected to but are outside the system unit. Examples are: mouse, keyboard, monitor, speakers, webcam, printer, scanner, AVR, etc 2. Internal parts - computer parts and peripherals that are inside the system unit. Examples are: power supply, hard disk drive, floppy disk dive, CD drive, RAM, CPU, motherboard, sound card, video card, network card, etc. Common PC Hardware SPEAKERS Used to produce audio output MONITOR An output device that lets you see your work as you go. CD/DVD DRIVE Reads CD/DVD discs SYSTEM UNIT The case that contains the CPLU, memory, the power supply, disk drives, and all other hardware-such as a modem- that are in an internal format. PRINTER Produces printed copies of computer output. MICROPHONE Used to get spoken input FLOPPY DISK Used for staring small amounts of data for backup or to transport data to another PC. KEYBOARD The principal input device, used to type instructions into the computer. CD/DVD DISCS Commonly used to deliver programs and store large multimedia files.

Mouse – The mouse is a hand held device that lets you point to and selected items on your screen. Central processing unit (CPU) is the actual brain of a computer. Read-only memory (ROM)- contains the commands your computer needs to activate itself. RAM (random-access memory) – provides the “working space” for open applications. The motherboard (also called a system board or circuit board) -is the most important part of the system. These cards add functions such as sound, video, or communications to your computer. A video adapter- video RAM, and a video controller so that data can be sent to a computer’s display. A sound card- is an expansion card that enables a computer to produce sound.
