Classification of Digital Classification of Digital ComputersComputers
Size and Purpose wise:
Supercomputer
Mainframe
Minicomputer
Microcomputer
Embedded
Purpose wise:
General Purpose:one that can work on different types if programs.
Special purpose:one that is designed to perform a specific task.
SUPER COMPUTERSUPER COMPUTERThe fastest type of computer. Supercomputers are very expensive and are employed
for specialized applications that require immense amounts of mathematical calculations.
For example, weather forecasting requires a supercomputer.
Other uses of supercomputers include animated graphics, , nuclear energy research, and petroleum exploration.
Characteristics
Powerful Expensive Dedicated to one purpose - weather, satellites, military Used by large governments or very large companies Can be used by thousands of people at the same time Very large - fill rooms
Example: PARAM by CDAC and PACE ( Processor for Aerodynamic Computation and Evaluation ) by ANURAG ( Advanced Numerical and Analysis Group )
Sixteen racks of IBM's Blue Gene/L supercomputer can perform 70.7 trillion calculations per second,
making it the fastest machine known so far.
MAINFRAMEMAINFRAME In the early days of computing, mainframes were huge
computers that could fill an entire room or even a whole floor.
As the size of computers has decreased while the power has increased, the term mainframe has fallen out of use in favor of enterprise server. You'll still hear the term used, particularly in large companies to describe the huge machines processing millions of transactions every day.
Characteristics: Expensive Powerful and fast Is not limited to one job Used by business and small government
organizations
Example: IBM 3090/60, CDC 6600
The main difference between a supercomputer and a mainframe is that a supercomputer channels all its power into executing a few programs as fast as possible, whereas a mainframe uses its power to execute many programs simultaneously.
MINICOMPUTERMINICOMPUTER Another term rarely used anymore, minicomputers fall
in between microcomputers (PCs) and mainframes (enterprise servers).
Minicomputers are normally referred to as mid-range servers now.
Characteristics: Smaller than mainframe Can do several jobs at once Can be used by many people at one time Used by small companies
Example: PDP-11, VAX
PERSONAL COMPUTERPERSONAL COMPUTER The term microcomputer, also known as
personal computer (PC), or a computer that depends on a microprocessor.
A microcomputer contains a central processing unit (CPU) on a microchip (the microprocessor), a memory system (read-only memory and random access memory), placed on a motherboard.
Example: desktop, notebook, laptop, handheld devices.
Charcteristics: developed in 1980 designed for single user not very powerful or expensive found in homes
EMBEDDED COMPUTEREMBEDDED COMPUTER
Embedded within the circuitry of appliances such as T.V., washing machines, wrist watches, etc.
Programmed for a specific task.
EVOLUTION OF COMPUTEREVOLUTION OF COMPUTER
The development of the modern day computer was the result of advances in technologies and man's need to quantify.
Let us look at some of the important milestones in the evolution of computers.
ABACUSABACUS
The abacus was invented in 3000 BC in Babylonia.
PASCAL’S ADDING PASCAL’S ADDING MACHINEMACHINE
In 1642 AD, Blaise Pascal , a French mathematician invented a calculating machine named as Adding Machine.
This machine was capable of doing Addition and Subtraction. This device is known as the First Calculator of the world.
LEIBNITZ’S LEIBNITZ’S CALCULATORCALCULATOR
In 1671 AD, Gotfried Leibnitz, a German Mathematician improved the Adding machine and made a new machine capable of performing multiplication and division also.
BABBAGE’S DIFFERENCE ENGINEBABBAGE’S DIFFERENCE ENGINE
Charles Babbage was a British mathematician. In 1822, he designed a machine called Difference Engine. It aimed at calculating mathematical tables.
Since the technology was not so advanced at that time this machine could not be made.
BABBAGE’S ANALYTICAL BABBAGE’S ANALYTICAL ENGINEENGINE
In 1833, Charles Babbage designed a machine called Analytical Engine. It had almost all the parts of a modern computer. Unfortunately, this machine could not be built because of lack of technology. His designs remained a concept.
His great designs earned him the title of ‘FATHER OF COMPUTERS‘.
LADY ADALADY ADA
Lord Byron's daughter, Ada, Countess of Lovelace, suggested to Babbage that he use the binary system in his machine.
She wrote programs for his analytical engine in 1840, becoming the world's first computer programmer.
HOLLERITH’S TABULATING HOLLERITH’S TABULATING MACHINEMACHINE
Hollerith, a Mathematician, invented a fast counting machine named Tabulating Machine in 1880.
This machine was used by American Department of Census to complete their 1880 census data.
MARK I MARK I COMPUTERCOMPUTER
Howard Aiken of Harvard University in USA joined hands with the company IBM.
He developed a computer named Mark I in 1943.
It could perform mathematical operations very fast.
It could perform one operation per second.
ENIACENIAC
The first electronic computer ENIAC was developed in 1946 by a team lead by Professor Eckert and Mauchly at the University of Pennsylvania in USA.
Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was very huge and very fast.
It could solve 5000 operations per second.

Language ProcessorsLanguage Processors
Assembler: This language processor converts the program written in Assembly language into machine language.
Compiler: This converts HLL program into machine language in one go.After the compiler is not needed. It is removed from the memory.Therefore, better memory utilization.
Interpreter: This converts HLL program into machine language by converting and executing it line by line.It must be present I memory every time program is executed. Therefore, unnecessary usage of memory.
There are three types of Language Processors:
Low Level Language
Fifth Generation
Fourth Generation
Third Generation(High Level Language)
Second Generation(Assembly Language)
First Generation(Machine Language)
FIRST GENERATION : Machine language
i.e. language of 0 and 1
SECOND GENERATION : Assembly language
Similar to English
Uses mnemonics codes
THIRD GENERATION : High Level Language
Very close to English
E.g. C, C++, Java, VB
FOURTH GENERATION : Languages for accessing databases
FIFTH GENERATION : Uses a visual or graphical development interface to create source language that is usually compiled with a 3GL or 4GL language compiler
Used mainly in artificial intelligence research
E.g. Prolog, OPS5, and Mercury
