Technology timeline

  • The First Bombe

    The First Bombe

    It was built for a electromechanical way for Nazi ENIGMA-base for communications. Hundreds of these were built to decrypt German Messages.
  • The Complex Number Calculator (CNC) is compleated

    The Complex Number Calculator (CNC) is compleated

    In 1939, the calculator was designed by George Stibitz. Likely this was the first remote access computing device.
  • Z3 computer

    Z3 computer

    This early computer was built by a German engineer Konrad Zuse. The Z3 computer was made to be used for the aerodynamic calculations. Later it was destroyed in a bombing in Berlin.
  • The Atanasoff- Berry Computer (ABC) is completed

    Professor John Vincent Atanasoff got funds to build a machine at the Iowa State College. The ABC was about to get a patent relate too the invention of the computer.
  • Bell Labs Relay Model ll

    Run through paper tape. This was use throughout the war and after as well.
  • Colossus

    The colossus was made to break the complex Lorenz ciphers. The Nazis used these during World War ll.
  • Simon 1 Relay Computer

    This machine costed $600 to build. It was really small and simple so it was easy to use.
  • First computer Program

    Know as the Baby it was made to test a new memory developed by William and Kilburn.
  • EDSAC

    This was the first practical stored program to have a normal computing system. This was stored on paper tapes.
  • MADDIDA

    This computer was very useful for mathematical equations. This at first was made for nuclear missile project.
  • ERA 1101

    This was one of the first commercially produced computers. This was made for high-speed computing.
  • Manchester Mark l

    Mark 1 was the prototype to the first computer. The memory system was used later by many computer systems.
  • Virtual computers

    By the time of 2030 we are expected to have virtual computers. These computers will be high Tec and way more advance then todays.
  • Small computers

    In the future computers are expected to be the size of a deck of cards. There is even a chance that they might offer smart or artificial intelligence.
  • Double computers

    By the year of 2050 there will be double the processing for computers. It's expected to be 20 times the amount.
