1 Types Of Computers

2 Types of Computers Supercomputer Mainframe Mini Computer

3 Micro Computer Work Station

4 Supercomputer introduced in the 1960s
the term "Super Computing" was first used by the New York World newspaper in 1929 refer to large custom-built tabulators IBM made for Columbia University used to solve problems involving by major universities, military agencies and scientific research laboratories

5 Mainframe designed to handle very high volume input and output (I/O) and emphasize throughout computing used mainly, by large organizations for critical applications, typically bulk data processing, industry and consumer statistics, ERP, and financial transaction processing

6 Mini Computer is a midsized computer
it is an old term for a class of multi-user computers, lies between the largest multi-user systems (mainframe computers) and the smallest single-user systems (microcomputers or personal computers)

7 Micro Computer small desktop or portable computer
designed to be used by one person at a time can be linked in a network its central processing unit is a microprocessor are the smallest of the four classes of computer

8 Workstation a type of computer used for engineering applications (CAD/CAM), desktop publishing, software development and other types of applications that require a moderate amount of computing power and relatively high quality graphics capabilities. come with a large, high-resolution graphics screen, at least 64MB (megabytes) of RAM, built-in network support and a graphical user interface the most common operating systems for workstations are UNIX and Windows NT like personal computers, most workstations are single-user computers

9 Activity Matching the description with the correct types of computers.

10 It was used to solve problems in major
universities, military agencies and scientific research laboratories.

11 It is designed to handle very high volume input and output (I/O) and emphasized throughout computing.

12 A midsized and multi-user computer

13 Small desktop or portable computer,
typically designed to be used by one person at a time although individual computers can be linked in a network so that users can share data and programs

14 A type of computer used for engineering
applications, desktop publishing, software development and other types of applications.
