Evolution of Computers
BlaisePascal invented the first mechanical adding Machine in 1642
Baron Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz invented the first
calculator for multiplication in 1671Keyboard machines originated in the United States
around 1880Around 1880, Herman Hollerith came up with the
concept of punched cards that were extensively used as input media until late 1970s

Charles Babbage is considered to be the father of modern digital computers
He designed “Difference Engine” in 1822
He designed a fully automatic analytical engine in 1842 for performing basic arithmetic functions
His efforts established a number of principles that are fundamental to the design of any digital computer

Computer Generations
“Generation” in Computer Talk is a step in Technology. I t provides a framework for the growth of computer industry
Originally it was used to distinguish between various hardware technologies, but now it has been extended to include both hardware and software
Till today, there are five computer generations

Personal Computers
•Used at home
•Used in Educations Institutions and Organizations as nodes
•Can perform typical activities like documentation, playing games, surfing web to more complex activities as programming, design etc.
![Page 14: History of Computer. Evolution of Computers BlaisePascal invented the first mechanical adding Machine in 1642 Baron Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz invented](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5697bfab1a28abf838c9b28f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Laptops
• Same as PCs in functionality
•More Compact, Portable
• Less Power requirement, operated on battery/s
• Less capacity compared to PCs
•Maintenance and actually are costlier compared to PCs
• Theft prone

Mini and Microcomputers
•Microcomputer is also called Personal Computer
•Minicomputers are in between mainframes and Microcomputers. They are also called midrange computers
• They are maintained by some organizations
![Page 19: History of Computer. Evolution of Computers BlaisePascal invented the first mechanical adding Machine in 1642 Baron Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz invented](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5697bfab1a28abf838c9b28f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PDA – Personal Digital Assistant

Workstations
• They are similar to PCs but with more memory and a high speed processor
• They are intended to support network operating systems and network applications.
• They are used in architectural design, video editing, animations etc.

Servers
•A server is one for which many PCs are connected.
• It has large capacity secondary storage and more memory
• They host, like workstations, network servers and operating systems
• They avoid duplicate installation of applications and all users will access to a common copy of the program

Mainframes
• Large computers both in terms of physical size as well as computations
• They support huge numbers of users
• Basically used to store and process huge amount of data
• Not all organizations can offered to maintain one mainframe. Take service of one vendor

Supercomputers
• Used in scientific and engineering applications those handling huge data and do a great amount of computation.
• Extremely fast in operation (@ 1 trillion operations/second)
• Fastest, costliest and powerful computer available today
• Application involves, weather forecasting, military applications, electronic design etc.
