Computer History (What's a computer)


Discipline of Computer Science has emerged since the year 1940, along with
berpadunya theory of algorithms and mathematical logic, and the discovery of
electronic computer with program storage capability. Is Alan
Turing and Kurt Godel, who in 1930 succeeded in integrating
algorithms, logic, and mathematical calculations and realize
in an instrument or a rule system. The principle of algorithm used
is from Ada Lovelace, who developed 60 years earlier.

Inventor of the algorithm itself is recorded in the early history of the
a man named Abu Abdullah Muhammad Ibn Musa al Khwarizmi. Al
Khwarizmi was a mathematician from Uzbekistan who lives in
the years 770-840 AD. In western literature, he is more popular with
Algorizm title. The word algorithm is derived from these titles.
While analog computer invented by Vannevar Bush in 1920,
and followed by an electronic computer developed by Howard Aiken
and Konrad Zuse in 1930.

Then John von Neumann's work demonstrates a phenomenal
in the year 1945, which is a computer architecture known as "von
Neumann machine ", where programs are stored in memory. Computer Architecture
This is then used by modern computers until now.

Year 1960 is a new chapter began formalization of Computer Science. Department
Computer Science at the universities began to boom built. Discipline
This new knowledge then known as Computer Science (Computer
Science), Computer Engineering (Computer Engineering), Komputing (Computing),
or Informatics (Informatics).

Definition

Along with the development of Computer Science, today many
Researchers are trying to make studies and conduct defining the
Computer Science. However, the basic mathematics of Computer Science
and engineering (engineering). Mathematics donated analysis methods, and
engineering design methods contribute to this field.

Denning defines in his paper Computer Science is quite famous
about the discipline of computer science [1]. This paper is the final report of the
projects and task forces of the Core of Computer Science established
by the two largest scientific society in the field of computers, namely ACM [4]
(http://acm.org) and the IEEE Computer Society [5] (http://computer.org).

Several other definitions are more abstract are:
Computer Science is the systematic study of algorithmic processes that
mengjelaskan and transform information: whether it is related to
theories, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, or
applications available to him. Fundamental questions associated with
Computer Science is, "What can efficiently diotomatisasikan".

The One About Perception of Computer Science

Some misguided perceptions of Computer Science can we
rangkumkan as below:

Computer science is the study of computers. Science
Computer science is not only learning about computers,
as well as non-astronomy science telescopes, or
biology is the science which is not only learn about
microscope. Computers, telescopes and microscopes are instruments of science,
and not the science itself.

Computer science is the study of how to write
computer programs.

Computer science is the study of the use
computer applications.
