What is a computer?

It is an electronic machine that receives and processes


data into useful information.

It is a collection of integrated circuits and other


components that can run quickly and accuratey
according to what indicated by the user or
actumatically by another program.

The First Analytical Machine

The first analytical engine created by Charles


Babbage, his idea was born because the preparation
of mathematical tables was an error-prone process

Generations:

First Generation

Second Generation

Third Generation

Quarter Generation

Fifth Generation

First Generation.

This generation spans from the 50s

These were built using vacuum tubes

They were programed in machine language

Large and expensive

The first 1000 words available central memory and


could read magnetic tapes

Second Generation

Near the decade of 60s computers were reducing its


size and increasing its porcessing capacity

They are build with circuits and transistors

High-leve lenguaje programimming on new languajes


called

They are less expensive and many companies appear

Third Generation

The electronic manufacturing is based on integrated


circuits

The handling is throuhg control lenguages operating


systems

It was inaugurated with the IBM 360 in 1964

The IBM 360 series 20, 22, 30, 40, 50, 65, 67, 75, 85,
90, 195, use specials techniques in the processor with
tape drives nine channels and packages of magnetic
disks

Quarter Generation

Here they appear microprocessors that are a


breakthrough in microelectronics

They are high-density integrated circuits with a


impressive speed

Microcomputers based on these circuits are extremely


small and cheap, so their use extends to the industrial
market

Information revolution

Fifth Generation

The international competition for market dominance of


the computation

Parallel processing by special designs and


architectures and high speed circuits

Management of natural language and intelligence


systems atificial

The Future of Computers

Holographic computers

Palmtops

Covery emotions and feelings

We would need only speak and no more tapping
