A computer system includes the hardware, operating system, and peripheral equipment needed for full operation. It can perform a wide range of tasks through programs that enable arithmetic and logical operations. Early computers were designed only for calculations, but modern digital computers powered by integrated circuits can control industrial and consumer products as well as power the internet through linked networks and devices.

<p><DIV>A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of
arithmetic or logical operations (computation) automatically. Modern digital
electronic computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs.
These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks. A computer system
is a nominally complete computer that includes the hardware, operating system (main
software), and peripheral equipment needed and used for full operation. This term
may also refer to a group of computers that are linked and function together, such
as a computer network or computer cluster.</DIV></p>
<p>A broad range of industrial and consumer products use computers as control
systems. Simple special-purpose devices like microwave ovens and remote controls
are included, as are factory devices like industrial robots and computer-aided
design, as well as general-purpose devices like personal computers and mobile
devices like smartphones. Computers power the Internet, which links billions of
other computers and users.<p>
<p>Early computers were meant to be used only for calculations. Simple manual
instruments like the abacus have aided people in doing calculations since ancient
times. Early in the Industrial Revolution, some mechanical devices were built to
automate long, tedious tasks, such as guiding patterns for looms. More
sophisticated electrical machines did specialized analog calculations in the early
20th century. The first digital electronic calculating machines were developed
during World War II. The first semiconductor transistors in the late 1940s were
followed by the silicon-based MOSFET (MOS transistor) and monolithic integrated
circuit chip technologies in the late 1950s, leading to the microprocessor and the
microcomputer revolution in the 1970s. The speed, power and versatility of
computers have been increasing dramatically ever since then, with transistor counts
increasing at a rapid pace (as predicted by Moore's law), leading to the Digital
Revolution during the late 20th to early 21st centuries<p>
