Brief History of Computers


John von Neumann - IAS


von Neumann Architecture Sequential operation Automatic (without human intervention) Five elements:

Input Output Memory Arithmetic Unit Control


Revised von Neumann Architecture


The Stored Program Concept Programming the Harvard Mark I was by

external paper tape The ENIAC was “programmed” by rewiring it

completely!


The First Business Computer LEO — Lyons Electronic Office — 1950

Modeled after the EDSAC

UNIVAC — Universal Automatic Computer — 1951 for the Census Bureau Perhaps the first mass produced machine

Basic Performance Equation

N ST

R

N is the actual number of instruction executionsS is the average number of basic steps needed to execute one machine instructionR is the clock rateT is the processor time required to execute a program that has been prepared in some high-level language

Instruction Sets: CISC and RISC

RISC – Reduced Instruction Set Computers (smaller S likely leads to larger N)

CISC – Complex Instruction Set Computers (larger S likely leads to smaller N)
