8. Computers in Manufacturing Information processing by computers – Design of components and systems – Controlling operations in production – Project planning & Controlling – Business related functions Physical Activities performed by Automation Systems – Assembly stations, robotics, material transfer systems, inspection & quality control etc.

9. History of Computing Mechanical Computers – 1600’s, 1700’s and 1800 – Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) The First Commercial Failure – Gottfried Liebniz (1646-1716) The First Commercial Success – Charles Babbage (1791-1871) The First Punched Cards – Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) The First Programmer – George Boole (1815-1864) The Founder of Information Theory – Herman Hollerith (1860-1929) The First Empire Builder

10. Hollerith’s Empire 1896: The Tabulating Machine Company 1911: Company merged with 2 others to form the Computing-Tabulated-Recording Company 1924: Changed its name to International Business Machines (IBM) 1944: First electronic computer developed in association with Dr Aiken of Harvard, Mark 1 – 8 feet high, 55 feet wide, 3 – 5 seconds to do a single multiplication operation

11. First Generation Computers 1951-1959 1953, IBM announces its first commercial computer, the IBM 701 – Sold 19 – Used vacuum tubes that continuously burned out – Were slow and unreliable – Coded using ‘machine language’, composed of 1 and 0 – Punched cards used to enter data and instructions

12. Second Generation Computers 1959-1963 Vacuum tubes replaced by transistors – Computers faster, smaller and more reliable – ‘High-level’ languages developed Easier to understand Not machine specific – Computers can communicate over telephone lines

13. Third Generation Computers 1963-1975 Invention of the integrated circuit in 1958 by Jack St Clair Kirby and Robert Noyce – Integrated circuits incorporate many transistors and electronic circuits on a single chip – Computers as cheap as 1 st generation but faster and more memory – DEC produced the first minicomputer in 1965, IBM dominated the mainframe market

14. Fourth Generation Computers 1975-Now? Early ’70s Intel developed Intel 4004, the first microprocessor 1975, MITS Altair became the first commercially available microcomputer using the Intel 8080 1977, Apple Computer Inc. founded 1979, VisiCalc, first spreadsheet released 1981, IBM released the Personal Computer (PC) – Intel microprocessor – Microsoft Operating System (OS)
