Compute Integrated Manufacturing • CIM: • The use of Computer Systems and Automation Systems to operate and control production.
Computers in Manufacturing • Information processing by computers • Design of components and systems • Controlling operations in production • Project planning & Controlling • Business related functions • Physical Activities performed by Automation Systems • Assembly stations, robotics, material transfer systems, inspection & quality control etc.
History of Computing • Mechanical Computers • 1600’s, 1700’s and 1800 • Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) The First Commercial Failure • Gottfried Liebniz (1646-1716) The First Commercial Success • Charles Babbage (1791-1871) The First Punched Cards • Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) The First Programmer • George Boole (1815-1864) The Founder of Information Theory • Herman Hollerith (1860-1929) The First Empire Builder
Hollerith’s Empire • 1896: The Tabulating Machine Company • 1911: Company merged with 2 others to form the Computing-Tabulated-Recording Company • 1924: Changed its name to International Business Machines (IBM) • 1944: First electronic computer developed in association with Dr Aiken of Harvard, Mark 1 • 8 feet high, 55 feet wide, 3 – 5 seconds to do a single multiplication operation
First Generation Computers 1951-1959 • 1953, IBM announces its first commercial computer, the IBM 701 • Sold 19 • Used vacuum tubes that continuously burned out • Were slow and unreliable • Coded using ‘machine language’, composed of 1 and 0 • Punched cards used to enter data and instructions
Second Generation Computers1959-1963 • Vacuum tubes replaced by transistors • Computers faster, smaller and more reliable • ‘High-level’ languages developed • Easier to understand • Not machine specific • Computers can communicate over telephone lines
Third Generation Computers1963-1975 • Invention of the integrated circuit in 1958 by Jack St Clair Kirby and Robert Noyce • Integrated circuits incorporate many transistors and electronic circuits on a single chip • Computers as cheap as 1st generation but faster and more memory • DEC produced the first minicomputer in 1965, IBM dominated the mainframe market
Fourth Generation Computers1975-Now? • Early ’70s Intel developed Intel 4004, the first microprocessor • 1975, MITS Altair became the first commercially available microcomputer using the Intel 8080 • 1977, Apple Computer Inc. founded • 1979, VisiCalc, first spreadsheet released • 1981, IBM released the Personal Computer (PC) • Intel microprocessor • Microsoft Operating System (OS)
