Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a 1946 progress report prepared at the end of a year-long research project commissioned by the US Ordnance Department to develop an electronic computing instrument based on the theoretical work of John von Neumann. It gives a thorough overview of the project's goals and methods, providing valuable insights into the origins and evolution of the digital computer. The report's main topics encompass the project's aims, the challenges of designing and building such a computer given the technological limitations of the time, and the solutions conceived to overcome these obstacles. It delves into the various components of the planned computer, including its memory, arithmetic, input-output, and control systems, discussing each system's design and operation in detail. Beyond its historical significance, the report is notable for its theoretical insights into computer architecture and design. The authors grapple with fundamental questions about the nature of information storage, transfer, and processing, exploring concepts such as memory capacity, processing speed, and error checking. Their discussions reveal a deep understanding of the interplay between theoretical possibilities and practical constraints, showcasing the intellectual rigor and foresight that characterized the early days of computer science. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780365689102_0
