Turing Computer
The turing computer is considered to be the father of all computera. It was used in the 1880s to calculate the us population after the us census. It saves the us 5 million dollars. -
Model K
The model k is a very early model of computer. unlike all the others it was actually pretty small. But then again, it was a calculator -
EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer)
The EDVAC was one of the earliest electronic computers. It was binary rather than decimal, and was a stored-program computer. by stored-program computer, it saved commands instead of having to manually type them in. -
Initiation of the Harvard Mark i
It was a general purpose electromechanical computer that was used in the war effort during the last part of World War II. The Harvard Mark i was basically a giant calculator made by Howard H. Aiken to help solve advanced mathematical physics problems encountered in his research. -
The creation of the first general purpose computer. The ENIAC
The first general purpose computer ever was the ENIAC. It was invented by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly at UOP Uuniversity of Pennsylvania). It began construction in 1943 up until 1946 -
UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer)
The UNIVAC I was the first commercial computer produced in the United States. It was designed principally by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, the inventors of the ENIAC. The first UNIVAC I was delivered on June 14, 1951. From 1951 to 1958 a total of 46 UNIVAC I computers were delivered -
Pds-1
The PDS-1 debuted in 1970 and is considered to be the predecessor of all later graphical minicomputers and modern computer workstations. The PDS-1 had a built-in display list processor and 4096 16-bit words of core RAM. The PDS-1 used a vector display processor for displaying vector graphics as opposed to the faster graphics of modern computer displays. -
Altair 8800
Bill gates and Paul Allen joined MITS to develop software and Altair BASIC was Microsoft's first product. The Altair is widely recognized as the spark that ignited the microcomputer revolution. -
Oric Oric 1
This British computer was one of the most popular computers in Europe in the beginning of the 80s. It was a small computer, which was a competitor of the Sinclair Spectrum. The two models (16 and 48) had the same technical characteristics. -
Terta Tap 30
Another mid age computer that had very good processing power for its age. Primarily it was designed as a terminal for big computer systems but it was also able to process data alone. -
The Macintosh
The Macintosh pc was created by Steve Jobs. It was the first commercially successful personal computer to feature a mouse and gui. -
Oric Telestrat
The Oric Telestrat is the successor of the Oric 1 and Oric Atmos with which it is compatible. Theoric Telesat was mainly used for telecommunications. But it was one of the first computers of its time that has expandable memory -
Quantum Computing
Quantum comouting is super efficent computing. Quantum computers can processes a greater number of calculations because they rely on quantum bits (“qubits”), which can be ones and zeroes simultaneously, unlike classical “bits” that must be either a one or a zero. Basically normal home computers run on either 32 or 64 bits. The bits can only calculate 1 thing at a time. Unlike quantum computers that can process multiple things at once. -
Artificial Intelligence
AI (artificial intelligence) is a computer program that is supposed to act like a normal human would. It has advanced algorithms that calculate what a human would do in a certain situations. -
Ubiquitous computing
Is a concept in software engineering and computer science where computing is made to appear anytime and everywhere.
