Charles Babbage
in the 1800s Charles Babbage conceived the first automatic digital computer. In that device he envisioned the capability of performing any arithmetical operation on the basis of instructions. -
Ada Lovelace
In the 1800s she played off of charles babbage and envisioned the capability of performing any arithmetical operation on the basis of instructions. Ada Lovelace was the first computer programmer. -
Alan Turing
in the early 1900s Turing’s ACE been built as he planned, it would have had vastly more memory than any of the other early computers, as well as being faster. Alan Turing was famous for his work developing the first modern computers, decoding the encryption of German Enigma machines during the second world war -
Mauchly and Eckert
In the mid 1900s a computer was a device that would use electricity to "think." Mauchly and Eckert invented the ENIAC. -
ENIAC Programmers
in the mid 1900s a computer would use electricity to "think. they developed concepts like subroutines and nesting. -
Grace Hopper
In the late 1900s a computer was a machine that did the same work.
Grace Hoppers main contribution was that she helped develop COBOL -- one of the first high-level programming languages -- and invented the first compiler, a program that translates programming code to machine language. -
Mark Dean
In the late 1900s the computer was a ISA bus, and he led a design team for making a one-gigahertz computer processor chip. Mark Dean improved the personal computer (PC) through the Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) systems bus
