What has the author Edward Alcosser written?
Edward Alcosser has written: 'How to build a working digital computer' -- subject(s): Electronic digital computers, Design and construction
Why did the Army need to build a electronic computer?
Because no one know about electronic computer
Where the digital computer was developed?
Digital computer development happened in several places at various times:London - 1830s Charles Babbage designs a mechanical digital Analytical Engine computer but does not build it.Cambridge - 1936 Alan Turing writes his paper "On Computable Numbers" which describes the Turing Machine, a hypothetical digital computer.Ames, IA - 1936 to 1942 John Vincent Atanasoff designs and builds electronic digital Atanasoff-Berry Computer with his graduate student Clifford Berry.Harvard - 1939 to 1942 Howard Aiken designs the electromechanical digital Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator computer and IBM builds it, following a disagreement between Aiken and IBM the machine is renamed the Harvard Mark I.Dollis Hill/Bletchley Park - 1943 to 1944 Tommy Flowers builds electronic digital Colossus computer, the first programmable electronic digital computer. A total of 10 of these machines are built, making it the first digital computer built in quantity before UNIVAC I in 1952. All but 2 are destroyed in 1945 after the end of the war with Germany and the project is kept classified until the early 1980s more than 2 decades after the remaining Colossus computers had also been destroyed.Berlin - 1936 to 1945 Konrad Zuse builds electromechanical Z3 computer. This machine is destroyed in an Allied bombing raid.Philadelphia, PA - 1943 to 1945 Eckert and Mauchly build electronic digital ENIAC computer, the first programmable electronic digital computer publically announced contemporaneously to its construction.After WW2 development spread rapidly to many locations.
How do you technology fueling the Digital revolution?
digital electronics use electronic circuits to represent data. in the 1940's and 1050's, engineers began to develop digital electronic devices and refine the elctronic components used to build them.
Where was the first computer build at?
The answer depends on how you define a computer. Konrad Zuse built the first electronic computer at Berlin, Germany The first electronic computer in the US was built at Ames, Iowa by John Atanasoff.
What year was the first computer introduced in the US?
The first Computer was build in US and was called ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer) In the Year 1946.
What is vacuum computer?
Typically an analog computer whose signals are represented by varying vacuum levels. One common use of these was in gasoline powered vehicles (where the carburetor supplied vacuum) and they controlled things like timing advance and cruise control. Electronic digital embedded control computers have made these obsolete.One could build digital computers that represented binary values as vacuum (1) or no vacuum (0), but I have never heard of any.Perhaps you left out a word and meant "What is a vacuum tube computer?". These were the first generation digital computers, built from the 1940s to ~1958 when transistors replaced vacuum tubes in digital computers.
Who was known as the father of the computer?
It could be any of the following:Charles Babbage (1830s) as he was the first to design a computer (the mechanical Analytical Engine), however he was unable to build it.Alan Turing (1936) he was the first to develop the concept that programs and data could be stored in identical forms, but he only used this as part of a mathematical proof (his paper On Computable Numbers) and was not considering building computers until after World War 2 ended.Howard Aiken (1942) designed and had IBM build the Harvard Mark 1 electromechanical digital computer, the first programmable digital computer.John V. Atanasoff (1936 to 1942) designed and built the first electronic digital computer (Atanasoff-Berry Computer or ABC), however it could only solve simultaneous equations and was not programmable.J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchley (1942 to 1946) designed and built first electronic programmable digital computer (ENIAC) and the concept of the stored program computer (but did not use this concept in ENIAC as the design was already frozen). Designed and built the UNIVAC stored program computer.Note: many others contributed to the early development of computers.
How long did it take to build the first computer?
Electronic digital computers, both special and general purpose, have been made from the 1940s to the present. If your question was more specific, a more specific answer could be made.
What year did Alan Turing invent his computer?
Alan Turing's invention of the programmable digital computer appeared in his 1936 paper "On Computable Numbers". However as it was only used as part of his main proof on computability in that paper, he never considered how such a machine might actually be built and made to work. Many years later this type of computer architecture was named a "Turing Machine".After his World War 2 work at Bletchley Park and his exposure to Tommy Flowers' codebreaking programmable electronic digital computers called "Colossus", Alan Turing helped design and build stored program electronic digital computers (these were not based on his earlier "Turing Machine" invention).
What was the first computer designed?
If by "computer" you mean general purpose programmable digital computer then most likely the mechanical Analytical Engine in the 1840s, but Babbage was never able to build it.If you mean any computer (including special purpose analog) then most likely the mechanical Antikythera mechanism found in a shipwreck off Greece in 1900. It is believed to have been made and used in the 2nd century BCE.If you mean electronic computer (including special purpose) then most likely the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC) designed in 1937.If you mean electronic general purpose programmable digital computer then most likely ENIAC designed in 1943.If you mean "computer" as originally defined in dictionaries, that was not designed it evolved as the first computer was a human computer.There are lots of "first computers".
What is the best computer for gaming that cost from 500-1000?
You have 3 options, build your own, a Velocity Micro, or a Digital Storm.
