Ict 7 Week 2

The document provides a history of computers from ancient manual devices to modern electronic computers. It describes early manual computational devices like the abacus used in Babylon and Napier's bones. It then discusses the development of mechanical calculators by Pascal, Leibnitz, and others. Next, it outlines the analytical engine designed by Charles Babbage, considered the first general-purpose computer. Finally, it summarizes the development of electromechanical and electronic computers in the 20th century including ENIAC, UNIVAC, and others.

HISTORY OF

COMPUTER
PRESENTATION BY
DEMY M.
CALATE
What is
COMPUTER
A computers are basically any form of electronic device
that manipulates information or data
It is a device that can be instructed to carry out a
sequence of arithmetic or logical operations
automatically via computer programming
It has the ability to accept data from the use (input),
process and store data entered, as well as generate the
desired output results

-Konrad Zuse, a German Engineer invented the
first general-purpose computer
-Dr. John Vincent Atanasoff an American professor
of IOWA State College (now University) and his
graduating engineering student Clifford Berry, began
building the prototype of the first computing
machine to use electricity and vacuum tubes, binary
numbers, capacitators in a rotating drum for
memory elements and logical systems for

ENIAC
-he suggested the use of binary arithmetic in
the operations of the computer and suggested
the stored-program concept
-he developed the concept where the program
and data reside in the same memory locations in
the computer and a system was used to
differentiate instructions from data values
-these proposal was later adopted by
Priceton University which developed EDVAC
