COMPUTER NETWORK The idea of computer networking started in the1960s when time-
sharing services were first available to the public. Computer networking has been developed at three levels:
Local area network (LAN) that interconnect computers located within a relative small area such as a college campus
metropolitan area network (MAN) representing LAN technologies optimized for a metropolitan area such as a city
wide area network (WAN) providing communication services over several kilometres, across the nation, or around the globe

Robotics And Artificial Intelligence “A robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator
designed to perform functions ordinarily ascribed to human beings” Robot age began in 1954 when George C.Devol, who is regarded
as the "father of robot," patented the first manipulator with a playback memory.
In 1969 and 1970,researchers at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) produced a mobile robot, known as Shakey, which had some vision capability

BRIEF HISTORY In 1946, John Mauchly and J PresperEckert developed the ENIAC I(Electrical Numerical Integrator And Calculator).
![Page 35: History Of Computers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061109/5451547caf795902348b6e94/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Contd… It was a war time effort by the University of Pensylvania's
Moore School of Electrical Engineering for the U.S Army's Ballistics Reseach Lab at Aberdeen Maryland.

Contd…
The U.S. military sponsored their research; they needed a calculating device for writing artillery-firing tables (the settings used for different weapons under varied conditions for target accuracy).

37
PHYSICAL FEATURES It spanned 150 feet in width with twenty banks of flashing
lights indicating the results of its computations.
• Weighed 30 tons, consumed 160 kilowatts of electrical power

38
Contd…. The ENIAC contained 17,468 vacuum tubes. 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors, 1,500 relays, 6,000
manual switches and 5 million soldered joints.
![Page 39: History Of Computers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061109/5451547caf795902348b6e94/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
PERFORMANCE ENIAC could perform
5,000 additions, 357 multiplications or 38 divisions.
The use of vacuum tubes instead of switches and relays created the increase in speed
![Page 40: History Of Computers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061109/5451547caf795902348b6e94/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Contd…. It was a 4 digit decimal arithmetic unit based on
vacuum tubes. It could store 4 digits in memory (2 digits each on the left and
right). Add and subtract 2 digits + 2 digits, perform transfer in
200É sec, and display results or store them in memory.

41
LIMITATIONS It was unable to store program.
• It had to be manually wired to execute a particular program.
• It could not be reprogrammed easily

EDSAC contained 3,000 vacuum tubes and used mercury delay lines for memory. Programs were input using paper tape and output results were passed to a teleprinter. Additionally, EDSAC is credited as using one of the first assemblers called "Initial Orders," which allowed it to be programmed symbolically instead of using machine code. a
![Page 43: History Of Computers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061109/5451547caf795902348b6e94/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
it seemed obvious that there were a few large defects. The most significant one was how long it would take to reprogram it. Previously, mechanical computers had been programmed with cards or punched tape, but the Eniac would operate too fast for that to be feasible, so there wasn’t any apparent alternative to internal programming- where a programmer would have to go rewire things to change the program. This could take hours or even
days for a new program to be ‘written

The Moore School computer nonetheless provided a crucial step in a progression of technological advances; it also served to convince military scientists and technical experts of the value and practicability of electronic computation. The resulting enthusiasm was compounded by the advent of the Cold War;

47
The rate of change in artillery designs and the changing patterns of warfare created demands that exceeded their computational capacity. At any other time, the ideas worked out by John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert--only 32 and 23 years old at the time that they met--would have been dismissed as impractical. Under other circumstances, their ideas would have been rejected for the simple reason that the ENIAC would cost too much to build

Future computers What will computers be like in the future? The computers of tomorrow won’t be on top of desks and
won’t have a monitor, keyboard and case. They may look like a pen ,box, sun glasses etc.
The near future, crystal holographic memory is coming on line
at MCC.
Computers may be in a 2 or 3 part unit. Stationary semi-stationary and mobile.

sit before the monitor and tell the password or just speak to your monitor. That will light up your files on the internet. Our monitor will recognize our voice.
