Starting in the 1930s and through the 1940s, a number of machines were developed that we

8、re like computers. But most of these machines did not have all the characteristics that we associate with computers today. These characteristics are that the machine is electronic, that it has a stored program, and that it is general purpose. 1.1 The Invention of the Computer 很難確切地說現(xiàn)代計(jì)算機(jī)是什么時(shí)候發(fā)明的。從很難

10、Called the Z3, it was general-purpose, stored-program machine with many electronic parts, but it had a mechanical memory. Another electromechanical computing machine was developed by Howard Aiken, with financial assistance from IBM, at Harvard University in 1943. It was called the Automatic Sequence

11、 Control Calculator Mark I, or simply the Harvard Mark I. Neither of these machines was a true computer, however, because they were not entirely electronic. 第一個(gè)類似計(jì)算機(jī)的裝置之一是第一個(gè)類似計(jì)算機(jī)的裝置之一是1941年由德國的年由德國的Konrad Zuse研制的，叫研制的，叫做做Z3,它是通用型儲存程序機(jī)器，具有許多電子部件，但是它的存儲器是它是通用型儲存程序機(jī)器，具有許多電子部件，但是它的存儲器是機(jī)械的。另一臺機(jī)電式計(jì)算機(jī)器是由霍

The machine was huge; it weighed 30 tons and contained over 18,000 vacuum tubes.也許早期最具影響力的類似計(jì)算機(jī)的裝置應(yīng)該是電子數(shù)字積分計(jì)算機(jī)，也許早期最具影響力的類似計(jì)算機(jī)的裝置應(yīng)該是電子數(shù)字積分計(jì)

It was the first general-purpose,

15、electronic computing machine and was capable of performing thousands of operations per second. It was controlled, however, by switches and plugs that had to be manually set. Thus, although it was a general-purpose electronic device, it did not have a stored program. Therefore, it did not have all th

16、e characteristics of a computer .ENIAC是當(dāng)時(shí)重要的成就。它是第一臺通用型電子計(jì)算機(jī)器，并能夠是當(dāng)時(shí)重要的成就。它是第一臺通用型電子計(jì)算機(jī)器，并能夠執(zhí)行每秒數(shù)千次運(yùn)算。然而執(zhí)行每秒數(shù)千次運(yùn)算。然而,它是由開關(guān)和繼電器控制的，必須手工設(shè)它是由開關(guān)和繼電器控制的，必須手工設(shè)定。定。 因此，雖然它是一個(gè)通用型電子裝置，但是它沒有儲存程序。因此，雖然它是一個(gè)通用型電子裝置，但是它沒有儲存程序。 因因此此,它不具備計(jì)算機(jī)的所有特征。它不具備計(jì)算機(jī)的所有特征。 1.1 The Invention of the Computer 1.1.1 The ENIACWhile

17、working on the ENIAC, Eckert and Mauchly were joined by a brilliant mathematician, John von Neuman. Together, they developed the idea of a stored program computer. This machine, called the Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer, or EDVAC, was the first machine whose design included all the

18、characteristics of a computer. It was not completed, however, until 1951.1.1 The Invention of the Computer 在在ENIAC的研制中，一個(gè)天才的數(shù)學(xué)家的研制中，一個(gè)天才的數(shù)學(xué)家Von Neuman(馮馮.諾伊曼諾伊曼)加入到加入到 Eckert和和Mauchly團(tuán)隊(duì)團(tuán)隊(duì),他們一起提出了儲存程序計(jì)算機(jī)的主意。這部機(jī)器他們一起提出了儲存程序計(jì)算機(jī)的主意。這部機(jī)器被稱做電子離散變量自動計(jì)算機(jī)被稱做電子離散變量自動計(jì)算機(jī), 或簡稱或簡稱EDVAC,是第一部包括了計(jì)算機(jī)所是第一部包括了計(jì)算機(jī)所有特征的

19、機(jī)器。然而有特征的機(jī)器。然而,直到直到1951年，它一直沒有完成。年，它一直沒有完成。1.1.1 The ENIACBefore the EDVAC was finished, several other machines were built that incorporated elements of the EDVAC design of Eckert, Mauchly, and von Neuman. One was the Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Computer, or EDSAC, which was developed in Camb

20、ridge, England. It first operated in May of 1949 and is probably the worlds first electronic stored-program, general-purpose computer to become operational. The first computer to operate in the United States was the Binary Automatic Computer, or BINAC, which became operational in August of 1949. 在在E

21、DVAC完成之前，其他一些機(jī)器建成了，它們吸收了完成之前，其他一些機(jī)器建成了，它們吸收了Eckert、Mauchly和和Neuman設(shè)計(jì)的要素。其中一部是在英國劍橋研制的電子延遲設(shè)計(jì)的要素。其中一部是在英國劍橋研制的電子延遲存儲自動計(jì)算機(jī)存儲自動計(jì)算機(jī),或簡稱或簡稱EDSAC，它在，它在1949年年5月首次運(yùn)行，它可能是世月首次運(yùn)行，它可能是世界的第一臺電子儲存程序、通用型計(jì)算機(jī)投入運(yùn)行。在美國運(yùn)行的第一界的第一臺電子儲存程序、通用型計(jì)算機(jī)投入運(yùn)行。在美國運(yùn)行的第一部計(jì)算機(jī)是二進(jìn)制自動計(jì)算機(jī)部計(jì)算機(jī)是二進(jìn)制自動計(jì)算機(jī),或簡稱或簡稱BINAC,它在它在1949年年8月投入運(yùn)行。月投入運(yùn)行。 1.

22、1 The Invention of the Computer 1.1 The Invention of the Computer 1.1.2 The UNIVAC ILike other computing pioneers before them, Eckert and Mauchly formed a company in 1947 to develop a commercial computer. The company was called the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation. Their objective was to design a

23、nd build the Universal Automatic Computer or UNIVAC. Because of difficulties of getting financial support, they had to sell the company to Remington Rand in 1950. Eckert and Mauchly continued to work on the UNIVAC at Remington Rand and completed it in 1951. Known as the UNIVAC I, this machine was th

This honor goes to the IBM 650. It was first delivered in 1955 before Remington Rand could come out with a successor to the UNIVAC I. With the

34、IBM 650, IBM captured the majority of the computer market, a position it still holds today.然而，然而，UNIVAC I并不是最流行的第一代計(jì)算機(jī)。這一榮譽(yù)屬于并不是最流行的第一代計(jì)算機(jī)。這一榮譽(yù)屬于IBM 650。它在它在Remington Rand能夠造出能夠造出UNIVAC I的后續(xù)產(chǎn)品之前的的后續(xù)產(chǎn)品之前的1955年首次交付年首次交付使用。憑借使用。憑借IBM 650,IBM占有了大半計(jì)算機(jī)市場，它在今天仍然保持這一占有了大半計(jì)算機(jī)市場，它在今天仍然保持這一位置。位置。1.2 Computer G

35、enerations 1.2.1 First-Generation Computers: 19511958At the same time that hardware was evolving, software was developing. The first computers were programmed in machine language, but during the first computer generation, the idea of programming language translation and high-level languages occurred

36、. Much of the credit for these ideas goes to Grace Hopper, who, as a Navy lieutenant in 1945, learned to program the Harvard Mark I. In 1952, she developed the first programming language translator, followed by others in later years. She also developed a language called Flow-matic in 1957, which for

39、of the FORTRAN programming language in 1957. This language became the first widely used high-level language. Also, the first simple operating systems became available with first-generation computers.在第一代計(jì)算機(jī)期間在第一代計(jì)算機(jī)期間, 軟件方面的其他的進(jìn)展包括軟件方面的其他的進(jìn)展包括1957年年FORTRAN語言的語言的設(shè)計(jì)。這種語言成為第一種廣泛使用的高級語言。同時(shí)設(shè)計(jì)。這種語言成為第一種廣泛

Although invented in 1948, the first all-transistor computer did not become available until 1959. Tran

41、sistors are smaller and less expensive than vacuum tubes, and they operate faster and produce less heat. Hence, with second-generation computers, the size and cost of computers decreased, their speed increased, and their air-conditioning needs were reduced.在第二代計(jì)算機(jī)中，晶體管取代了真空管。雖然發(fā)明于在第二代計(jì)算機(jī)中，晶體管取代了真空管。

42、雖然發(fā)明于1948年年,但第一臺全晶體管計(jì)算機(jī)但第一臺全晶體管計(jì)算機(jī)直到直到1959年才成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。晶體管比真空管體積小、價(jià)格低，而且運(yùn)行快而發(fā)熱少。因此，年才成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。晶體管比真空管體積小、價(jià)格低，而且運(yùn)行快而發(fā)熱少。因此，隨著第二代計(jì)算機(jī)的出現(xiàn)，計(jì)算機(jī)的體積和成本降低、速度提高，且它們對空調(diào)的需要隨著第二代計(jì)算機(jī)的出現(xiàn)，計(jì)算機(jī)的體積和成本降低、速度提高，且它們對空調(diào)的需要減少減少。 Many companies that had not previously sold computer entered the industry with the second generation.
