The Information Age “Lets Get It Started”

What is the Information Age? Information Age: People, Information & Societies that chronicle the birth and growth of electronic information -- from ancient times to Samuel Morse's invention of the telegraph in the 1830s, through the development of the telephone, radio, television, and computer. http://www.tcf.ua.edu/courses/Jbutler/T389/ITHistoryOutline2.htm

Four Periods of The Information Age Pre-Mechanical - 3000 B.C.-1450 A.D. Mechanical - 1450-1840 Electro-Mechanical - 1840-1940 Electronic/Information -1940-Present

The Pre-Mechanical Age Writing and Alphabets: Cuneiform, Symbols Paper and Pen: Papermaking Books and Libraries: Religious Scrolls, Binding Numbering Systems: Numbers 1-9, Zero The First Calculators The Abacus

The Mechanical Age Movable Type Printing General Computers (Numbers) Slide Rule Analog Computer Key Punch Computer Binary Logic Real Time Operated Computers

The Electro-Mechanical Age Telecommunications Voltaic Battery Telegraph Morse Code Telephones and Radios Computing Census Machine Mark 1 Paper Stored Programming

Information Age Electronic Vacuum Tubes Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer Manchester Mark 1 First Computer for Commercial Use

Computer Generations First Generation (1951-1958) Main Logic Elements Externally Stored Information Machine and Assembly Language Compilers Second Generation (1959-1963) Transistors Semi-Conductors High-Level Programming Fortran/Cobol Third Generation (1964-1978) Integrated Circuits Magnetic Tape and Disk Operating Systems BASIC Fourth Generation (1979-) Large Scale Circuits Central Processing Units Apple II/Apple Mac IBM/MS-DOS/GUI MS Windows
