  • Leibniz machine

    Leibniz machine
    First of all, the calculating machine was built and developed in 1668. This is important because it is used for calculating data and also processing it.An interesting fact about the Leibniz machine is that before it was invented, calculating machines could only add and subtract. After it was invented though, multiplication, division and extraction of roots were also added. The Leibniz machine is an input and output device.
  • George Boole

    George Boole
    George Boole was an English mathematician, philosopher. He worked in the fields algrebic logic, and is now best known as the author of the law of thought . Boole is regarded in hindsight as a founder of the field of computer scient. At age 19 Boole successfully established his own school at Lincoln.It help computer to simplefy by makeing 2 code 1 and 0.
  • The First Programmer:Augusta Ada King

    The First Programmer:Augusta Ada King
    Augusta Ada King (Countess of Lovelace, now more commonly known as Ada Lovelace) , she wrote an algorithm that could be processed by Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine, which was never built. Her notes still are very important, though, which is why she’s been dubbed as the first programmer.
  • Charles Xavier Thomas’s Mechanical Calculator

    Charles Xavier Thomas’s Mechanical Calculator
    Charles Xavier Thomas was the frenchman who, in 1851, had manufactured the mechanical calculator that was used until World War I. Even though he developed the idea around older versions it was still very successful and widely used.In 1820 Charles Xavier Thomas de Colmar made a machine, the 'arithmometer', based on Leibniz's design which was capable of performing the four operations in a simple and reliable way. His machine was very successful,
  • Charles Babbage Analytical Engine

    Charles Babbage Analytical Engine
    The Analytical Engine was the worlds first general-purpose computer. It was designed by Charles Babbage, an English Mathematician in the 1830s. It was finally constructed in the year 1991 because the government hadn't supported it enough to pay for it earlier.
  • Integrated Circuit (chip) - Jack Kilby & Robert Noyce

    Integrated Circuit (chip) - Jack Kilby & Robert Noyce
    Jack Kilby & Robert Noyce created the or developed the integrated circuit (chip). Integrated circuit are the hardware or processor for example is in IPhone there is a chip call A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, etc. Those are the integrated circuit. Chip are used for a variety of devices like microprocessor, audio and video equipment, etc. Chips makes electronic faster like IPhone it make the graphic faster and making the phone not lag. Integrated Circuit was developed in the 1950s by Jack Kilby and Robe
  • Douglas Engelbart

    Douglas Engelbart
    Douglas Engelbart was an American engineer and inventor. He is also an early computer and internet pioneer.They want an invention which can make your life more easier for computers so they first mouse was invented in 1964. The first mouse was made from wood and its designed by Bill English from Engelbarts sketch.
  • ICT- Computer System (Chester Carlson's Xerox machine)

    ICT- Computer System (Chester Carlson's Xerox machine)
    The first xerox machine was invented in the year 1938, in New York City. It’s important to the computer system because it helps us photocopy papers. Chester Carlson was an inventor and a researcher. He had a job at a patent office in New York which required him to make many copies of important papers. He used to get really bored that’s why he started conducting experiments in his kitchen. After lots of hard work he was able to create the xerox machine.
  • Information on Integrated Circuit

    Information on Integrated Circuit
    In 1959 March 24, Jack Kilby was said to be the person who invented the integrated circuit, but it was developed way before him. Integrated circuit was actually the idea of four main people who are Jack Kilby, Kurt Lehovec, Robert Noyce and Jean Hoerni. The main contribution about integrated circuit is that it is used in personal computer and also reduce the cost of the computer so more people are able to buy them which allow them to use the personal computers.
  • Ms-Dos Computer Operating System

    Ms-Dos Computer Operating System
    The ms-dos computer operating system is more commonly known as the Windows command line is still used by many users. You can still use MS-DOS by searching for “CMD” on the search bar of your computer. This invention or idea aimed or can be classified under the Operating Systems.
  • Tim Berners-Lee

    Tim Berners-Lee
    Tim Berners-Lee is a inventor that invented the World Wide Web, an internet-based hypermedia initiative for global information. He wrote the first web client and server in 1990. His specifications of URLs, HTTP and HTML were refined as Web technology spread.
