How are programs stored in a computer?

By stored-program computer, we mean a machine in which the program, as well as the data, are stored in memory, each word of which can be accessed in uniform time. Most of the high-level language programming the reader.

Who came up with and developed the idea that a computer program could actually be stored in the computer memory itself in the form of encoded CPU instructions?

This is not known. John von Neumann is commonly credited, but he simply documented an idea that had been discussed for some time by the various designers of ENIAC.

When was The Computer Programme created?

The Countess Ada Augusta of Lovelace is usually credited with designing and writing the first computer program. However as the computer it was written for, Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, was never built this program was largely an academic exercise.The first program for a computer that was actually built was designed in 1944 and ran on the British cryptanalytic computer Colossus. It is unknown who did the work as the entire project was classified and most of the records were destroyed after the war.The first program for a stored program computer (the type that modern computers are), consisting of 17 instructions, was written by Tom Kilburn, and first ran on June 21, 1948 on the Manchester Baby computer.


In computer science what does persistence refer to?

The term persistence in Computer Science, refers to the stored information (known as state), which outlives the executed computer program (or process). Persistence is important, without it all computer stored information would be lost whenever a computer is shut down.


When did the first computer run a program from memory?

The Manchester Baby was the first computer to run a program from memory, it ran its first program on June 21, 1948. The program was stored in a 32 word CRT based DRAM and consisted of 17 instructions; it ran for 52 minutes before reaching the correct answer of 131,072, after performing 3.5 million operations (for an effective CPU speed of 1.1 kIPS).The modified ENIAC was the second computer to run a program from memory, it ran its first program as a stored-program computer on September 16, 1948. The program was stored in the 100 word Function Table ROM switches as 2 digit instructions (allowing storage for up to 500 instructions).


Who is Von Neumann?

Von Neumann was the first person to suggest to concept of the stored program. This concept states that there is no difference between computer instructions and data. More importantly, he suggested that it was not necessary to have separate storage location for a computer program and data -- hence today, computer instructions are stored in primary memory for execution, along with other data.
