Then we found out how to turn numbers into letters and we thought it was a typewriter. Then we discovered graphics, and we thought it was a television. With the World Wide Web, we've realized it's a brochure." - Douglas Adams "Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of complaining."

A Very Brief History of Computer Science Written by Jeffrey Shallit for CS 134 at the University of Waterloo in the summer of 1995. This little web page was hastily stitched together in a few days. Perhaps eventually I will get around to doing a really good job. Suggestions are always welcome. A translation of this web page into French has been prepared by Anne Dicky at the University of Bordeaux. Before 1900 People have been using mechanical devices to aid calculation for thousands of years. For example, the abacus probably existed in Babylonia (present-day Iraq) about 3000 B.C.E. The ancient Greeks developed some very sophisticated analog computers. In 1901, an ancient Greek shipwreck was discovered off the island of Antikythera. Inside was a salt-encrusted device (now called the Antikythera mechanism ) that consisted of rusted metal gears and pointers. When this c. 80 B.C.E. device was reconstructed, it produced a mechanism for predicting the motions of the stars and planets. (More Antikythera info here John Napier (1550-1617), the Scottish inventor of logarithms, invented

Home Research NWP Numerical Modelling ... Computers History NWP Climate Seasonal forecasting Atmospheric processes ... The stratosphere History of Computers In the beginning... About 50 years ago, the Synoptic and Dynamical Research Sub-committee of the Meteorological Research Committee recommended that the Met Office obtain an electric desk-calculator, and recruit a mathematician specially trained in computational methods, to enable the office to undertake trial meteorological computations. So it was, with such basic equipment, not even capable of automatic multiplication, that the Met Office began to fulfill the dream of L.F. Richardson, when in 1922 he suggested the possibility of numerical weather prediction using a grand "forecast factory" - consisting of thousands of (human) computers, seated around a globe shaped auditorium, each one calculating the future state of the atmosphere at a fixed location by evaluating a set of equations. In the ten years following the purchase of the electrical desk-calculator, a small number of Met Office staff had access to a "real" computer - the LEO 1 - which had been built by Lyons, the caterers. Eventually, in 1959 the Met Office purchased its first computer - a Ferranti Mercury, which the office named Meteor. With glowing valves and copious volumes of paper tape, the Met Office had entered the computer age.

Science Friday Archives February History of Computers Fifty years ago this month, the U.S. Army and the University of Pennsylvania teamed up to produce an all-electronic machine that heralded the beginning of the Information Age. In this hour of Science Friday, we'll look back on the half-century since ENIAC was invented and reflect on how computers have revolutionized our lives.

Milestones in the History of Computers Below is a list of famous people and computers in the history of computing. The list is divided into five categories or generations based on the type of technology used in the construction of the computers or computing devices. Up until the outbreak of the Second World War, computing devices were mechanical or electro-mechanical. The first "known" mechanical calculator (aside from the abacus) was Wilhelm Schickard's "Calculating Clock" (1623). This device was lost early on so for many years it was believed that a calculator invented by Blaise Pascal in 1642 was the first mechanical calculator. Pascal's Pascaline could only add and subtract and although Pascal tried to market his invention, its high cost and technical unreliability did not make it a "best seller". Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz also invented a calculator, one that could also multiply (using repeated addition). Again, the technology of the time did not make for a reliable device although Liebniz's ideas were basically sound. Charlies Babbage, a 19th century "polymath" devised a calculating machine, the Difference Engine I (1823) which could be used to mechanically generate mathematical tables. He even obtained funding from the British government to build it. Unfortunately, the machine was never completed partly because of the technological diffculties inherent in constructing so complex a mechanical device and perhaps partly due to Babbage's becoming interested in buildling a more ambituous calculating machine, the Analytic Engine (also never constructed). The Analytic Engine was essentially a general purpose calculating device. It had a "store" which could store numbers and a "mill" which would perform a sequence of calculations. A friend of his, Augusta Ada Byron, later the Countess of Lovelace, became interested in Babbage's work and did much to popularize his device. She even wrote a "program" for the Analytic Engine and thus she is considered to be the first computer programmer.

Sightings News Opinion Other Martial Arts Politics Thought A BRIEF HISTORY OF COMPUTERS A History of Microcomputers, Bill Gates (MS) and Apple By: David K. Every Pre-History There was some interesting stuff done before the first computer. Intel created the 4004 processor - a 4 bit microprocessor that had more use in programmable calculators than anything close to what we would call a computer today, but you've gotta start somewhere. The claim to fame for the 4004 (besides being the predecessor to the 8008, 8080, and later 8088 all the way up to the Pentiums of today) was Intels first bug (they have a long history of bugs), that caused the machine to burn up I don't mean just run so hot that you need special coolers and fans, like most Intel chips I mean literally burn itself out Computers have instruction sets values you send the computer to command it to do different things (do math, jump somewhere, do some conditional tests, etc.), and there are lots of possibilities. These values (instructions) are called machine code and are just groups of bits (zero's and one's) making larger numbers - usually represented in a different counting system called hexadecimal (base16)
