Computer Science History timeline

Protocolos de ARPANET = was a computer network created by order of the Department of Defense of the United States (DOD) to use it as a means of communication between the different academic and state institutions. The first node was created at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and was the backbone of the Internet until 1990, after completing the transition to the TCP / IP protocol, initiated in 1983. ARPANET stands for Advanced Research Projects Agency Network.

Altair 8800=1er microordenador personal. The MITS Altair 8800 was a microcomputer designed in 1974, based on the Intel 8080 CPU. Interest in this equipment grew rapidly after it was featured on the cover of January 1975, from Popular Electronics magazine, with hundreds of kits for put together for fans, and were surprised to sell that amount ten times only in the first month. The Altair also appealed to people and companies that only wanted a computer and presented an already assembled version.

Apple II =2º ordenador personal. The Apple II family of computers was the first series of mass-produced microcomputers made by the Apple Computer company between June 5, 1977 and the mid-1980s. The Apple II had an 8-bit architecture based on the 6502 processor. It was completely different from the later Apple Macintosh models. Its predecessor was the Apple I, a machine built by hand and sold to fans. It was never produced in large numbers, but it started many of the features that would make Appl

IBM PC compatible is a type of computer similar to IBM PC, IBM Personal Computer XT and IBM Personal Computer /AT. These computers, also called clone PCs, IBM clones or clones, are so named because they almost duplicate exactly all the important features of the PC architecture, which is facilitated by the possibility of legally performing reverse engineering of the BIOS through clean room design by Several companies Columbia Data Products built the first clone of an IBM PC through a clean-room

1ª impresora láser en blanco y negro. Developed by Gary Starkweather during the 1973 decade and first marketed in 1977.The printing device consists of a photoconductor drum attached to a toner container and a laser beam that is modulated and projected through a specular disc towards The photoconductor drum. The rotation of the disk causes a scan of the beam on the drum generatrix.The areas of the drum on which the beam strikes are ionized pass through the toner tank.

1ª tarjeta de video: A graphics card is an expansion card of the motherboard of the computer that is responsible for processing the data from the central processing unit (CPU) and transforming it into understandable and representable information on the output device (for example: monitor, television or projector). These cards use a graphics processing unit or GPU, which is often mistakenly used to refer to the graphics card itself. Some graphics cards have offered additional features.

MS-DOS (acronym for MicroSoft Disk Operating System, Microsoft Disk Operating System) was the most popularly known member of the Microsoft DOS operating system family, and the main personal computer system compatible with IBM PC in the 1980s and the mid-1990s, until it was gradually replaced by operating systems that offered a graphical user interface, in particular by several generations of Microsoft Windows. MS-DOS was born in 1980 was commissioned to produce an operating system.

8086=1er PC con microprocesador Intel. The Intel 8086 and the Intel 8088 (i8086, officially called iAPX 86, and i8088) are the first 16-bit microprocessors designed by Intel. They were the beginning and the first members of the x86 architecture. Development work for 8086 began in the spring of 1976 and was launched in the summer of 1978. The 8088 was launched in 1979. The 8086 and 8088 execute the same set of instructions. Internally they are identica, exept de bytes.

Lenguaje de programación: Basic is a programming language that was created for pedagogical purposes, it was the language used by the microcomputers of the 80s. Currently it is still well known and has many different dialects than the original. Let's see some history of Basic. In the 1960s, computers had a high value and were used for specific tasks, they were mono task. But then, allowing some small businesses to afford to acquire them. Computers improved a lot in speed, data processing capacity

1ª definición de Internet: Internet (the Internet or also the Internet) 3 is a decentralized set of interconnected communication networks that use the TCP / IP family of protocols, which ensures that the heterogeneous physical networks that compose it constitute a unique logical network worldwide . Its origins date back to 1969, when the first computer connection, known as ARPANET, was established between three universities in California (United States).

Sistemas operativos gráfico Windows 1.0.Windows 1.0 was the first 16-bit graphic operating system developed by Microsoft and launched on November 20, 1985, being one of the first graphic systems designed. It was Microsoft's first attempt to implement a massive operating environment with a graphical user interface on the PC platform. Windows1.01 was the first version of this product. It cost $ 99 and a computer with a minimum of 256KB RAM, a graphics card and two floppy disk drives was required.

1er ordenador con interfaz gráfica: The history of the Graphical User Interface, (sometimes known as GUI, acronym for Graphical User Interface), understood as the use of icons and a pointing device to control a computer, covers a framework of five decades of refinements incremental, built on some constant basic principles. Many operating system providers have created their own window system based on independent code, but with basic elements in common that define the WIMP paradigm.

C is a general-purpose programming language2: 1 originally developed by Dennis Ritchie between 1969 and 1972 at Bell Labs, 1 as an evolution of the previous B language, in turn based on BCPL.2.Like B, it is a language oriented to the implementation of operating systems, specifically Unix. C is appreciated for the efficiency of the code it produces and is the most popular programming language for creating system software, although it is also used to create applications.

A CD-ROM1 (acronym for Compact Disc Read-Only Memory) is a compact disc with which laser beams are used to read information in digital format. The standard CD-ROM was established in 1985 by Sony and Philips.It belongs to a set of colored books known as Rainbow Books, which contains the technical specifications for all compact disc formats. Some drives read CD-ROMs and record on single-recorded compact discs. These units are called burners, since they work with a laser that "burns".

1ª tarjeta de sonido Sound Blaster. The Sound Blaster family of sound cards has for many years been the de facto standard for audio from IBM compatible PCs, before PC audio became common. The creator of Sound Blaster is a Singapore company called Creative Technology, also known by the name of its satellite company in the United States, Creative Labs.

In computer science, the World Wide Web (WWW) or the global computer network1 is an interconnected and accessible hypertext or hypermedia document distribution system via the Internet. With a web browser, a user views websites composed of web pages that may contain texts, images, videos or other multimedia content, and browses through those pages using hyperlinks. The Web was developed between March 1989 and December 19902 3 by the Englishman Tim Berners-Lee.

Java is a programming language and computer platform first commercialized in 1995 by Sun Microsystems. There are many applications and websites that will not work unless you have Java installed and more are created every day. Java is fast, safe and reliable. From laptops to data centers, from game consoles to super computers, from mobile phones to the Internet, Java is everywhere, which is executed on one platform does not have to be recompiled to run on another.

1er Microprocesador Pentium. In computing, the World Wide Web (WWW) or Intel Pentium computer network is a range of fifth-generation microprocessors with x86 architecture produced by Intel Corporation. The first Pentium was launched on March 22, 1993.1 with initial speeds of 60 and 66 MHz, transistors, internal cache of 8 KiB for data and 8 KiB for instructions; succeeding the Intel 80486 processor. Intel did not call it 586 because it is not possible to register a mark composed only of numbers
