7.BRIEF HISTORY OF COMPUTER INDUSTRY
Exercise 1. Read and translate the text orally. (Огзаки, устно)
I n 1822 Charles Babbage, professor of mathematics at Cambridge University in England, created the “ Analytical engine”, a mechanical calculator that could automatically produce mathematical tables, a tedious and error-prone manual task in those days. Babbage conceived of a large-scale, steam-driven (!) model that could perform a wide range of computational tasks. The model has never been completed as revolving shafts and gears could not be manufactured with the crude industrial technology of the day.

By the 1880s manufacturing technology had improved to the point that practical mechanical calculators, including versions of Babbage’s Analytical engine, could be produced. The new technology achieved worldwide fame in tabulating the US Census of 1890. The Census Bureau turned to a new tabulating machine invented by Herman Hollerith, which reduced personal data to holes punched in paper cards. Tiny mechanical fingers “felt” the holes and closed an electrical circuit that in turn advanced the mechanical counter. Hollerith’s invention eventually became the foundation on which the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) was built.

Analog and digital calculators with electromechanical components appeared in a variety of military and intelligence applications in 1930s. Many people credit the invention of the first electronic computer to John Vincent Atanasoff. He produced working models of computer memory and data processing units at the University of Iowa in 1939 although had never assembled a complete working computer.

World War II prompted the development of the first working all-electronic digital computer, Colossus, which the British secret service designed to crack Nazi codes. Similarly, the need to calculate detailed mathematical tables to help aim cannons and missiles led to the creation of the first, general-purpose computer, the electronic numerical integrator and calculator ENIAC at the University of Pennsylvania in 1946.

After leaving their university (arguing over the patent rights) developers of ENIAC, J. Prosper Eckert and John Mauchly, turned to business pursuits. They also had an ugly scandal with an academic colleague, John von Neumann, whom they accused of having unfairly left their names off the scientific paper that first described the computer and allowed von Neumann to claim that he had invented it. Eckert and Mauchly went on to create UNIVAC for the Remington Rand Corporation, an early leader in the computer industry. UNIVAC was the first successful commercial computer, and the first model was sold to the US Census Bureau in 1951.
Notes

To achieve a fame - достичь славы / машхурликка эришиш

To close a circuit - замкнуть цепь / занжирни ёпиш

To crack codes - взламывать коды / кодларни бузиш
