There to count the amount of soldiers, every soldier had to pass a narrow passage. For each passing soldier a little stone was put into a groove. When ten stones were in that groove they were removed and one stone was put into the next groove.

6. Ancient Computing History The Abacus Mechanical aid used for counting and making quick calculations. Still in use around the world. Find out more about the Abacus in Resources.

7. The Abacus How did people keep track of numbers before pen and paper were widely available? How does addition and subtraction work if you don't have a handy written form for your numbers? Say you can't read or write, but you can count - how do you add, subtract, multiply, or divide large numbers? The answer to all these questions is... the abacus! www.fenris.net/~lizyoung/abacus.html

8. Why does the abacus exist? It is difficult to imagine counting without numbers, but there was a time when written numbers did not exist. The earliest counting device was the human hand and its fingers. Then, as larger quantities (larger than ten human- fingers could represent) were counted, various natural items like pebbles and twigs were used to help count. Merchants who traded goods not only needed a way to count goods they bought and sold, but also to calculate the cost of those goods. Until numbers were invented, counting devices were used to make everyday calculations. www.ee.ryerson.ca:8080/~elf/abacus/history.html

9. Russian Abacus The abacus is an ancient tool used for counting. The simple design uses a set of framed rods and a series of beads that are moved back and forth across the rods to count. www.dotpoint.com/xnumber/pi c_abacus3.htm

10. Development of soroban In 607 the japanese regent Shotoku Taishi made a cultural approach to China. The chinese suan-pan comes to Japan and became optimized by Taishi by removing one of the upper balls. Since 1940 the new soroban with only four lower balls is used.

20. Charles Babbage the "Father of Computing" (1791-1871)

21. Charles Babbage - “Father of the Computer” 1822 - Designed the Difference Engine for the purposes of computing the entries in navigational and other tables (even received the first government grant for computer research). 1833 - Designed the Analytical Engine that had the basic components of a modern computer. Unfortunately due to poor documentation most of his ideas were lost.

23. The World’s First Programmer? 1842 - Ada Augusta King, Countess of Lovelace, translates Menabrea's pamphlet on the Analytical Engine, adding her own notes, and becomes the world's first programmer. 1847 - 1849 - Babbage continues working on the 2nd version of the Difference Machine and draws plans for it. In 1991 the Science Museum in Kensington, England build the 2nd version (using 19th century technology).

24. Mechanical Calculators Joseph Jacquard First “programmable” machine. Used punched cards (binary instructions) to automate weaving loom. Punched cards were a staple of early and modern computer programming.

25. Electronic Computer Systems Used vacuum tubes in electronic circuits. Used punch cards to input and externally store data. Up to 4K of memory. Programming in machine language and assembly language. Required a compiler. First Generation:1943-1956

27. First Generation: 1943-1956 World’s first electronic digital computer. Used to produce WWII ballistic firing tables for the U.S. Defense Department. Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator (ENIAC) Check out the ENIAC exhibit.

29. ENIAC - details Decimal (not binary) 20 accumulators of 10 digits Programmed manually by switches 18,000 vacuum tubes 30 tons 15,000 square feet 140 kW power consumption 5,000 additions per second

31. Computerized Warfare 1943 - The Colossus built in England by a team led by Alan Turing, was a special purpose computer used to break the German code ULTRA encrypted using the ENIGMA machines. Breaking the German code was one the the keys to the success of the D-Day invasion. 1944 - The Harvard Mark I (and later II, III and IV) were general purposed electromechanical calculators (sponsored by the US Navy) to compute artillery and navigation tables - the same purpose as intended by Babbage for the Difference Engine.

32. The von Neumann Computer 1944 - John von Neumann joined the ENIAC project. The idea of storing programs as numbers was proposed. 1945 - von Neumann wrote a memo proposing a stored-program computer called EDVAC. Goldstine distributed the memo, put von Neumann’s name on it and omitted Eckert’s and Mauchly’s names. Most computer historians agree the von Neumann received far more credit than he deserved. The most prestigious award in the field of Computer Architecture is the Eckert-Mauchly award.
