Development of ENIAC
ENIAC stands for the Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer. This was the first major development in the history of Computers. Initially, this design was carried further to produce better and more efficient computers as this computer weighed 27215.5 kilograms. This design was not efficient due to the equipment that was used, the concept of vacuum tubes was used. A vacuum tube was an component which had less work efficiency and it required a large cooling system. -
Use of Transistors in Computers
After the first and initial design of a computer with the use of a vacuum tube, which was bulky and difficult to use. On December 23, 1947 there was an invention of a transistor which made the design of a computer much smaller than the ENIAC. This also made the efficiency of a computer improve drastically as the size of electrons decreased from vacuum tube of transistor, which is why the size of computer also decreased and it became much smaller than that of earlier computer. -
First Computer Program to Run on a Computer
The computer programmer who is known for significant role in history is Alan Turing. He was the person who came up with the first theory of a computer and devised the idea of theories called artificial intelligence. -
EDSAC Develpoment
Electronic delay storage automatic calculator (EDSAC) was an early British computer, inspired by John Von Neuman's initial draft of a report on EDVAC. The machine was constructed by Maurice Wilkes and his team at the University of Cambridge Mathematical Laboratory in England. -
CSIRAC Ran the first computer
Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Automatic Computer (CSIRAC) ran the first computer. This council was established by Trevor Pearcey and Maston Beard, for use in its Radio physics Laboratory in Sydney.
