PRE-MECHANICAL
PERIOD
The pre-mechanical age is the earliest age of information
technology. It can be defined as the time between
3000B.C. and 1450A.D. We are talking about a long time
ago. When humans first started communicating they
would try to use language or simple picture drawings
known as petroglyths which were usually carved in rock.

43 Presentation title 20XX


Mechanical Period

44 Presentation title 20XX


Mechanical Period
The mechanical age is when we first start to see connections between our
current technology and its ancestors. The mechanical age can be defined as
the time between 1450 and 1840. A lot of new technologies are developed
in this era as there is a large explosion in interest with this area.
Technologies like the slide rule (an analog computer used for multiplying
and dividing) were invented. Blaise Pascal invented the Pascaline which was
a very popular mechanical computer. Charles Babbage developed the
difference engine which tabulated polynomial equations using the method
of finite differences.

45 Presentation title 20XX


Electromechanical Period

46 Presentation title 20XX


Electromechanical
• Now we are finally getting close to some technologies that resemble our modern-day
technology. The electromechanical age can be defined as the time between 1840 and
1940. These are the beginnings of telecommunication. The telegraph was created in
the early 1800s. Morse code was created by Samuel Morse in 1835. The telephone
(one of the most popular forms of communication ever) was created by Alexander
Graham Bell in 1876. The first radio developed by Guglielmo Marconi in 1894. All
of these were extremely crucial emerging technologies that led to big advances in the
information technology field. The first large-scale automatic digital computer in the
United States was the Mark 1 created by Harvard University around 1940. This
computer was 8ft high, 50ft long, 2ft wide, and weighed 5 tons - HUGE. It was
programmed using punch cards. How does your PC match up to this hunk of metal?
It was from huge machines like this that people began to look at downsizing all the
parts to first make them usable by businesses and eventually in your own home.

Electronic Period

48 Presentation title 20XX


Electronic Period
• The electronic age is what we currently live in. It can be defined as the time between 1940 and right
now. The ENIAC was the first high-speed, digital computer capable of being reprogrammed to solve a
full range of computing problems. This computer was designed to be used by the U.S. Army for
artillery firing tables. This machine was even bigger than the Mark 1 taking up 680 square feet and
weighing 30 tons - HUGE. It mainly used vacuum tubes to do its calculations. There are 4 main
sections of digital computing. The first was the era of vacuum tubes and punch cards like the ENIAC
and Mark 1. Rotating magnetic drums were used for internal storage. The second generation replaced
vacuum tubes with transistors, punch cards were replaced with magnetic tape, and rotating magnetic
drums were replaced by magnetic cores for internal storage. Also during this time high-level
programming languages were created such as FORTRAN and COBOL. The third generation
replaced transistors with integrated circuits, magnetic tape was used throughout all computers, and
magnetic core turned into metal oxide semiconductors. An actual operating system showed up around
this time along with the advanced programming language BASIC. The fourth and latest generation
brought in CPUs (central processing units) which contained memory, logic, and control circuits all on
a single chip. The personal computer was developed (Apple II). The graphi.cal user interface (GUI) was
developed.
