Joeseph wegstein

In a short time, the CODASYL group (Conference on Data System Languages) under the leadership of Joeseph Wegstein (04/07/1922) and with the support of IBM, developed a standardized business programming language COBOL (Comnon business oriented language). This language is focused on the solution of economic problems, and more precisely - on the processing of information.

In 1960, ALGOL (Algoritmic Language - algorithmic language) appeared, focused on scientific application, and many new concepts were introduced into it, for example, a block structure. This language has become the conceptual basis of many programming languages.

Thirteen European and American programming specialists in Paris approved the ALGOL-60 programming language standard .

Employees of the University of Manchester under the leadership of Tom Kilburn (Tom Kilburn, August 11, 1921 - January 17, 2001) created the Atlas computer, which for the first time implemented the concept of virtual memory.
For the first time, a page organization of machine memory was used, which became widespread in universal computers of the 60s. High nominal speed of the computer (700-900 thousand op / sec.) Was achieved through the use of multiprogramming control (up to 4 commands could be executed simultaneously in the computer), through the use of high-frequency transistors and high-speed arithmetic unit operation, internal storage devices and external devices.

John Kemeny and Tom Kurtz

The BASIC language (Beginners all-parpouse sumbolic instraction code - a multi-purpose language of symbolic instructions for beginners) was developed by professors of Dartmouth College Tom Kurtz (Thomas Eugene Kurtz, 02.28.1928) and John Kemeny (John George Kemeny, 05.31.1926 - 26.12.1992) for students unfamiliar with computer technology. Over time, the language has a variety of dialects: Basica (IBM), GW-Basic, MSX-Basic, Turbo-Basic (Borland), Quick-Basic (Microsoft), XYBasic, QBasic, CBasic, Basic-80, 86 and 87Basic / 387Basic (MicroWay), etc.

BASIC was first used in the IBM 704 computer, but it became widespread in the early 1980s, after Bill Gates and Paul Allen wrote the Basic interpreter for the first Altair 8800 PC in 1975. Over time, the language spawned many dialects.

Young Niklaus Wirth

In 1968-1970, Professor Niklaus Wirth (him. Niklaus Wirth, born February 15, 1934) created the PASCAL language at Zurich Polytechnic University, named after BLASA PASCAL, the first designer of the device, which now belongs to the class of digital computers. It was created as a language that, on the one hand, would be well suited for teaching programming, and on the other, it would provide an opportunity to effectively solve a wide variety of tasks on modern computers.
When creating this language, Wirth paid great attention to a good programming style - structured programming, thanks to which PASCAL constructions allow writing reliable, easily verifiable programs with a clear and precise structure.
Niklaus Wirth is a Swiss scientist, a specialist in computer science. Leading developer of programming languages ​​Pascal, Modula-2, Oberon. Wirth's book "Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs" is considered one of the classic textbooks on structured programming.

MR Cuillian of Carnegie Mellon University proposed a method for representing knowledge in the form of semantic networks.

A small company BBN (Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Inc.) signs a contract with ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency - Advanced Planning Department for Research and Development - Special Department of the Pentagon) for building a network (prototype ARPANET) and writing software for it. The network was decided to build on the basis of specialized mini-computers, called IMP (Interface Message Processor, interface message processor), connected by communication lines that transmit information at 50 kbit / s. To increase reliability, each IMP had to be connected to two other IMPs.

July 18th. Intel , a California- based manufacturer of semiconductor storage devices, is set up in the California town of Mountain View to become a cheaper alternative to magnetic memory components. Intel was founded by Robert Noyce (Robert Noyce), Gordon Moore (Gordon Moore) and Andrew Grove (Andrew Grove). Then the company was registered as MN Electronics (Moore-Noyce Electronics). A little later, the founders acquired the rights to the Intel name (represented as INTegrated ELectronics ) for $ 15,000 from a company that owned a chain of hotels. Thus began the era of Intel - the world's largest manufacturer of microprocessors, equipment for computers and telecommunications.

1969

Professor of Mathematics at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Seymour Papert and his colleagues created a new language based on Lisp, calling it Logo (which the word means in Greek). At the initiative of Papert, the so-called bug was used in the language, providing the connection “object - thought” (first a mechanical bug was used crawling on the floor, and then its conventional image on the screen). As Papert noted, “the computer usually leads the child step by step,” and the Logo, on the contrary, “convinces the child that he is able to control the machine, allows the child to say:“ I am the master here. ” At first, the logo was intended for large computers and mini-computers that are available at MIT, but then penetrated into thousands of classes of elementary schools.

Under the auspices of the Advanced Studies Agency of the United States of America (ARPA), the development and implementation of a global military computer network linking research laboratories in the United States began.

October 29, 1969 is considered to be the birthday of the Network.
On this day, the very first attempt was made, albeit not entirely successful, to remotely connect to a computer. Charley Kline of the University of California at Los Angeles (University of California at Los Angeles, UCLA) is trying to log in to the computer at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI). An attempt ends with the collapse of the system at the moment the letter G is entered in the word LOGIN. Distant from each other at a distance of 500 kilometers, SRI and UCLA were the first nodes of the future ARPANet.
Tests of the first stage of ARPANet took all fall of 1969. Then two more nodes were connected to the network: University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) and University of Utah (UTAH). These four organizations distributed among themselves the main functions of creating components of the first in the history of the Wide Area Network:

  • UCLA - conducting measurement tests;
  • SRI - creation of an information center;
  • UCSB - development of the mathematical apparatus;
  • UTAH - the first work on three-dimensional graphics.

Testing became possible due to the fact that by September 1, 1969, BBN (Bolt, Baranek and Newman) had manufactured the first copies of the IMP (Interface Message Processor) device that provides communication between computers via telephone channels.

HTTP://WWW.INTERNETVALLEY.COM/ARCHIVES/MIRRORS/CERF-HOW-INET.TXT

Историю сети Интернет ( Интернет - это сокращение от «Interconnected Networks» (взаимосвязанные сети)) можно разделить на несколько этапов:

  • 1945—1960. Теоретические работы по интерактивному взаимодействию человека с машиной, появление первых интерактивных устройств и вычислительных машин, на которых реализован режим разделения времени.
  • 1961—1970. Разработка технических принципов коммутации пакетов, ввод в действие ARPANet.
  • 1971—1980. Число узлов ARPANet возросло до нескольких десятков, проложены специальные кабельные линии, соединяющие некоторые узлы, начинает функционировать электронная почта, о результатах работ ученые докладывают на международных научных конференциях.
  • 1981—1990. Принят протокол TCP/ IP, Министерство обороны решает построить собственную сеть на основе ARPANet, происходит разделение на ARPANet и MILNet, вводится система доменных имен Domain Name System (DNS), число хостов доходит до 100 000.
  • 1991—1999. Новейшая история.
