The History of Computing: A Very Short Introduction From the earliest knotted cords to the present-day smartphones, the history of computing is a fascinating tale of innovation and evolution. However, this story is often told in a linear narrative that focuses on the "great men" of technology, neglecting the diverse and complex nature of computing's development. In this Very Short Introduction, we will challenge this traditional view and offer a fresh perspective on the history of computing, centered around the user experience. The Linear Narrative of Computing The conventional account of computing's history begins with the use of knotted cords to aid calculation, progressing through the development of the abacus, the invention of the wheel, and the creation of the first mechanical calculators. This narrative then jumps to the electronic computer, which is often seen as the pinnacle of technological advancement. However, this linear approach overlooks the many other threads that have contributed to the evolution of computing. By focusing solely on these highlights, we risk oversimplifying the true nature of computing's development and neglecting the diverse range of technologies that have shaped our understanding of the world.
История вычислений: очень короткое введение От самых ранних завязанных в узел шнуров до современных смартфонов история вычислений - это увлекательная история инноваций и эволюции. Тем не менее, эта история часто рассказывается в линейном повествовании, которое фокусируется на «великих людях» технологий, пренебрегая разнообразным и сложным характером развития вычислений. В этом очень кратком введении мы бросим вызов этому традиционному взгляду и предложим свежий взгляд на историю вычислений, сосредоточенный вокруг пользовательского опыта. Линейное повествование о вычислениях Традиционный рассказ об истории вычислений начинается с использования завязанных в узлы шнуров для помощи в вычислениях, продвигаясь через развитие абака, изобретение колеса и создание первых механических калькуляторов. Затем это повествование перескакивает на электронный компьютер, который часто рассматривается как вершина технологического прогресса. Однако этот линейный подход упускает из виду множество других потоков, которые внесли свой вклад в эволюцию вычислений. Сосредоточившись исключительно на этих ключевых моментах, мы рискуем чрезмерно упростить истинную природу развития вычислительной техники и пренебречь разнообразным спектром технологий, которые сформировали наше понимание мира.
L'histoire de l'informatique : une introduction très courte Des premières cordes attachées à un nœud aux smartphones modernes, l'histoire de l'informatique est une histoire fascinante d'innovation et d'évolution. Cependant, cette histoire est souvent racontée dans un récit linéaire qui se concentre sur les « grands hommes » de la technologie, négligeant la nature variée et complexe du développement de l'informatique. Dans cette très brève introduction, nous contesterons ce point de vue traditionnel et offrirons une nouvelle vision de l'histoire de l'informatique, centrée sur l'expérience utilisateur. L'histoire traditionnelle de L'histoire de L'informatique commence par L'utilisation de cordes attachées dans les nœuds pour aider à L'informatique, en passant par le développement de L'abaque, L'invention de la roue et la création des premières calculatrices mécaniques. Cette narration passe ensuite à l'ordinateur électronique, qui est souvent considéré comme le sommet du progrès technologique. Cependant, cette approche linéaire perd de vue de nombreux autres flux qui ont contribué à l'évolution des calculs. En nous concentrant uniquement sur ces points clés, nous risquons de simplifier indûment la vraie nature du développement de l'informatique et de négliger la diversité des technologies qui ont façonné notre compréhension du monde.
Historia de la computación: una introducción muy breve Desde los primeros cordones atados al nudo hasta los teléfonos inteligentes modernos, la historia de la computación es una historia fascinante de innovación y evolución. n embargo, esta historia se cuenta a menudo en una narrativa lineal que se centra en los «grandes hombres» de la tecnología, descuidando la naturaleza diversa y compleja del desarrollo de la computación. En esta breve introducción, desafiaremos esta visión tradicional y ofreceremos una visión fresca de la historia de la computación centrada en torno a la experiencia del usuario. Narración lineal de la computación relato tradicional de la historia de la computación comienza con el uso de cordones atados a nudos para ayudar en la computación, avanzando a través del desarrollo del ábaco, la invención de la rueda y la creación de las primeras calculadoras mecánicas. Entonces, esta narración salta a la computadora electrónica, que a menudo es vista como un ápice del progreso tecnológico. n embargo, este enfoque lineal pasa por alto muchos otros flujos que han contribuido a la evolución de la computación. Centrándonos exclusivamente en estos puntos clave, corremos el riesgo de simplificar excesivamente la verdadera naturaleza del desarrollo de la informática y descuidar la variada gama de tecnologías que han moldeado nuestra comprensión del mundo.
Storia del calcolo: una breve introduzione Dai primi cavi legati al nodo agli smartphone moderni, la storia del calcolo è una storia affascinante di innovazione e evoluzione. Tuttavia, questa storia è spesso raccontata in una narrazione lineare che si concentra sui «grandi uomini» della tecnologia, trascurando la natura diversificata e complessa dello sviluppo del calcolo. In questa breve introduzione, sfideremo questa visione tradizionale e offriremo una visione recente della storia del calcolo, incentrata sull'esperienza utente. La narrazione lineare del calcolo Il racconto tradizionale della storia del calcolo inizia usando i cavi legati nei nodi per aiutare il calcolo, progredendo attraverso lo sviluppo dell'abac, l'invenzione della ruota e la creazione dei primi calcolatori meccanici. Poi questa narrazione si riversa su un computer elettronico, che spesso viene considerato il vertice del progresso tecnologico. Tuttavia, questo approccio lineare perde di vista molti altri flussi che hanno contribuito all'evoluzione del calcolo. Concentrandoci esclusivamente su questi punti chiave, rischiamo di semplificare eccessivamente la vera natura dell'evoluzione dell'informatica e di ignorare la varietà di tecnologie che hanno formato la nostra comprensione del mondo.
Geschichte des Rechnens: eine sehr kurze Einführung Von den frühesten verknoteten Kabeln bis hin zu modernen Smartphones ist die Geschichte des Rechnens eine faszinierende Geschichte der Innovation und Evolution. Diese Geschichte wird jedoch oft in einer linearen Erzählung erzählt, die sich auf die „großen Männer“ der Technologie konzentriert und den vielfältigen und komplexen Charakter der Computerentwicklung vernachlässigt. In dieser sehr kurzen Einführung werden wir diese traditionelle chtweise herausfordern und einen frischen Blick auf die Geschichte des Computing bieten, der sich auf die Benutzererfahrung konzentriert. Lineare Rechenerzählung Die traditionelle Geschichte der Rechengeschichte beginnt mit der Verwendung von verknoteten Schnüren zur Unterstützung der Berechnungen, die durch die Entwicklung des Abaka, die Erfindung des Rades und die Schaffung der ersten mechanischen Taschenrechner voranschreiten. Diese Erzählung springt dann auf einen elektronischen Computer, der oft als Höhepunkt des technologischen Fortschritts angesehen wird. Dieser lineare Ansatz übersieht jedoch die vielen anderen Threads, die zur Entwicklung der Datenverarbeitung beigetragen haben. Indem wir uns ausschließlich auf diese Schlüsselpunkte konzentrieren, laufen wir Gefahr, die wahre Natur der Computerentwicklung zu vereinfachen und das vielfältige Spektrum der Technologien zu vernachlässigen, die unser Verständnis der Welt geprägt haben.

Bilgisayar Tarihi: Çok Kısa Bir Giriş En eski düğümlü kablolardan modern akıllı telefonlara kadar, bilgisayar tarihi büyüleyici bir yenilik ve evrim hikayesidir. Bununla birlikte, hikaye genellikle teknolojinin "büyük insanlarına" odaklanan, bilgi işlem gelişiminin çeşitli ve karmaşık doğasını ihmal eden doğrusal bir anlatıda anlatılmaktadır. Bu çok kısa tanıtımda, bu geleneksel görüşe meydan okuyacağız ve kullanıcı deneyimine odaklanan bilgi işlem tarihine yeni bir bakış açısı sunacağız. Bilgisayar tarihinin geleneksel anlatımı, hesaplamaya yardımcı olmak, abaküsün gelişimi, tekerleğin icadı ve ilk mekanik hesap makinelerinin oluşturulması yoluyla ilerlemek için düğümlü kabloların kullanılmasıyla başlar. Bu anlatı daha sonra, genellikle teknolojik ilerlemenin zirvesi olarak görülen elektronik bir bilgisayara atlar. Bununla birlikte, bu doğrusal yaklaşım, bilgisayar gelişimine katkıda bulunan diğer birçok konuyu gözden kaçırmaktadır. Yalnızca bu kilit noktalara odaklanarak, bilgi işlem gelişiminin gerçek doğasını aşırı basitleştirme ve dünya anlayışımızı şekillendiren çeşitli teknolojileri ihmal etme riskiyle karşı karşıyayız.
تاريخ الحوسبة: مقدمة قصيرة جدًا من أقدم الأسلاك المعقودة إلى الهواتف الذكية الحديثة، يعد تاريخ الحوسبة قصة رائعة عن الابتكار والتطور. ومع ذلك، غالبًا ما تُروى القصة في سرد خطي يركز على «الأشخاص العظماء» في التكنولوجيا، متجاهلين الطبيعة المتنوعة والمعقدة لتطوير الحوسبة. في هذه المقدمة الموجزة للغاية، سوف نتحدى هذه النظرة التقليدية ونقدم منظورًا جديدًا لتاريخ الحوسبة المتمحور حول تجربة المستخدم. السرد الخطي للحوسبة يبدأ السرد التقليدي لتاريخ الحوسبة باستخدام الأسلاك المعقودة للمساعدة في الحوسبة، والتقدم من خلال تطوير العداد، واختراع العجلة، وإنشاء أول آلات حاسبة ميكانيكية. ثم يقفز هذا السرد إلى جهاز كمبيوتر إلكتروني، غالبًا ما يُنظر إليه على أنه ذروة التقدم التكنولوجي. ومع ذلك، فإن هذا النهج الخطي يتجاهل العديد من الخيوط الأخرى التي ساهمت في تطور الحوسبة. من خلال التركيز فقط على هذه النقاط الرئيسية، فإننا نخاطر بالمبالغة في تبسيط الطبيعة الحقيقية لتطوير الحوسبة وإهمال مجموعة متنوعة من التقنيات التي شكلت فهمنا للعالم.
