In the history of civilization, there have been several information revolutions – transformations of social relations as a result of changes in the processing, storage and transmission of information.

The first revolution is associated with the invention of writing, which led to a giant qualitative and quantitative leap. It became possible to transfer knowledge from generation to generation.

The second (mid-16th century) revolution was caused by the invention of printing, which radically changed industrial society, culture, and the organization of activities.

The third (late nineteenth century) revolution was caused by the discovery of electricity, which led to the emergence of telegraph, telephone, and radio, allowing for the rapid transmission and accumulation of information in any volume.

The fourth (70s of the XX century) revolution is associated with the invention of microprocessor technology and the emergence of a personal computer. Microprocessors and integrated circuits are used to create computers, computer networks, and data transmission systems (information communications).

History of computer technology development

The history of computer technology development goes back about five decades. During this time, several generations of computers have changed. Each subsequent generation was characterized by new elements (electronic tubes, transistors, integrated circuits), the manufacturing technology of which was fundamentally different. Currently, there is a generally accepted classification of computer generations:

1st generation (1946 – early 50s). The element base was electronic tubes. Computers were characterized by large dimensions, high energy consumption, low speed, low reliability, and programming in codes.

2nd generation (late 50s – early 60s). Element base – semiconductor elements. All technical characteristics were improved compared to the previous generation of computers. Algorithmic languages are used for programming.

3rd generation (late 60s – late 70s). Element base – integrated circuits, multilayer printed circuitry. A sharp reduction in the size of computers, increasing their reliability, increasing productivity. Access from remote terminals.

4th generation (from the mid-70s to the late 80s). Element base – microprocessors, large integrated circuits. Technical characteristics improved. Mass production of personal computers. Areas of development: powerful multiprocessor computer systems with high performance, creation of cheap microcomputers.

5th generation (from the mid-80s). The development of intelligent computers began, but was not successful. Introduction of computer networks and their integration into all spheres, use of distributed data processing, widespread use of computer information technologies.

Along with the change of generations of computers, the nature of their use has also changed. If initially they were created and used mainly for solving computational tasks, then later the scope of their application expanded. This includes information processing, automation of management of production, technological and scientific processes, and much more.

Principles of operation of computers by Konrad Zuse

The idea of the possibility of building an automated counting machine came to the mind of the German engineer Konrad Zuse and in 1934 Zuse formulated the basic principles on which future computers should work:

  • binary number system;
  • use of devices operating on the principle of “yes/no” (logical 1/0);
  • fully automated process of computer operation;
  • software control of the computing process;
  • support for floating point arithmetic;
  • use of large capacity memory.

Zuse was the first in the world to determine that data processing begins with a bit (he called a bit a “yes/no status” and binary algebra formulas conditional judgments), the first to coin the term “machine word” (Word), the first to combine arithmetic and logical operations in a computer, noting that “an elementary computer operation is to check two binary numbers for equality. The result is also a binary number with two values (also, not equal)”.

Over the past decade, the retro-computing craze has spread all over the world and become a very popular hobby. It is a way to plunge into the past. It is an opportunity to work on computers of the past and understand their software technologies. Enthusiasts buy boards from old PCs and collect rare models of old computer equipment. The growing popularity of retro-computing has led to an increase in prices for old personal computers and their components. The older a computer is, the higher the demand for it and the more expensive its cost. Collectors and restorers of old computer equipment create communities and clubs. People obsessed with their favorite hobby come together to communicate and share knowledge and experience, share sources of information on buying and selling vintage equipment. Museums of computer history are opening. Computer exhibits are created and maintained by enthusiasts and IT professionals. This is a special world that allows you to touch the computer past.

Areas of retrocomputing

  • Working with hardware. Collecting and restoring old models of computer equipment.
  • Retro gaming. A passion for games created for outdated computer systems.
  • Programming. Collection of programs from outdated computer systems.

Many video game players have a special interest in the technologies of the past, the period of gaming’s origin. They have a keen interest in retro-format computer games that support old software systems. Retro games have a special atmosphere, and many players have nostalgic memories of the time that has passed. This is an opportunity to play your favorite game of the past in the present. Retro gamers strive to find opportunities to support the format of outdated games using modern technologies. This hobby also allows playing old toys on restored equipment.

Modern gamers are actively interested in the possibility of accompanying games of the past period with high-level music and sound design. In retro computers, the functions of the sound and music palette of toys were poorly developed. After all, creating melodies for toys involves both composing music and programming. The use of modern software allows you to achieve interesting results in the music and sound design of retro games.

Programming direction

The level of functioning of computing equipment is determined by the capabilities of software. Collectors who are fond of rare computer systems search for, organize, and store information from outdated media. Programs and data stored on old computers are of great value to them. At the same time, IT specialists solve the tasks of transferring information in a format supported only by outdated media to innovative computer systems. A scrupulous process is carried out to select the most up-to-date reading devices. The data is converted to modern data formats, with a large amount of information preserved and cataloged. Enthusiastic collectors replicate old computer systems using the elemental basis of the modern period.

Computers, without which our lives are impossible, actually appeared not so long ago. Not only did the older generation not use computers during their studies at schools and institutes, but they usually had no idea what they were. The era of computers and even electronic computers, as we used to call the first computers, came into our lives relatively recently. Although their most distant predecessor, the abacus, appeared in ancient Babylon 3000 years before Christ.

The first person to invent the first digital computer was Blaise Pascal. In 1642, he presented the Pascaline, the first mechanical digital computing device. The prototype device summed and counted five-digit decimal numbers. Pascal made more than ten such computers, and the last models operated with numbers with eight decimal places. It all started with this discovery…

Who invented the first electronic computer and when?

In 1942, the American physicist John Atanasoff and his graduate student Clifford Berry designed and began assembling the first electronic computer. The work was not completed, but it greatly influenced the creator of the first electronic computer, ENIAC. The person who invented the ENIAC computer, the first electronic digital computer, was John Mockley, an American physicist and engineer. John Mockley summarized the basic principles of building a computer based on his experience in developing machines, and in 1946 the world was presented with a real ENIAC electronic computer.

So the question of what year the computer was created, where the first computer was created, and who created the first computer can be answered in different ways. If we are talking about the first computer in general (in this case, a mechanical one), then the creator of such a computer can be considered Konrad Zuse, and the country in which the first computer was invented can be considered Germany. If we consider the first computer to be an electronic computer, then it will be ENIAC, the inventor, respectively, is John Mockley, and the country is the United States.

The first computers were still far from the ones we use today – personal computers. They were huge, occupied a large area comparable to that of a multi-room apartment, and weighed several tens of tons! Personal computers (PCs) appeared much later.

Who created the first personal computer?

The creation of the first personal computers became possible only in the 1970s. Some people began to assemble computers at home for research purposes, as there were practically no useful applications for computers at home. And in 1975, the first personal computer Altair 8800 appeared, which became the first commercially successful PC. The creator of the first personal computer was an American engineer Henry Edward Roberts, who was also the founder and president of Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems, which started producing the first PC. The Altair 8800 was the “boss” of the boom in personal computing.

The first personal computers, and even the computers of the early 90s, were many orders of magnitude weaker than modern ones. Suffice it to say that the memory capacity of a modern, not-so-cool “flash drive” is comparable to the entire disk memory of several thousand (!!!) personal computers of the early 90s. And so it is with all other indicators. The fantastic breakthrough in the performance of modern personal computers in the 2000s is primarily due to the development of new technologies in the field of electronics and nanotechnology.
