WHAT IS COMPUTER? The word “Computer” is derived from the word “compute” which means to calculate. In the past‚ the computer was normally considered to be a calculating device which used to calculate arithmetic operations. But today‚ computer is used in every field of daily life to solve problems of different kinds. Therefore‚ a computer can be defined as: Definition: Computer is an electronic device that is used to solve different kinds of problems depending on a set of instructions given

-John von Neumann John von Neumann‚ born December 28‚ 1903 was a Hungarian mathematician who made important contributions to computer science‚ von Neumann is best known for his EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer) which opposed the not yet released ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer). Neumann’s EDVAC design was intended to resolve many of the problems created by the ENIAC’s design. The ENIAC was designed to operate in decimal‚ whereas the EDVAC was designed

to Wi-Fi and about Wireless Control of Robots using Wi-Fi The basic idea behind this paper includes the concept of Wi-Fi and simple microprocessors which can be used for guiding the Final Control Element of typical robots (more often they are stepper motors). Normally the wireless control of Robots are done using higher level microprocessors/controllers‚ complex coding in the receiving side with single channel transmission of control signals which proves too costly for local use.

Intel started marketing its product as a branded component which gave computer manufacturers and consumers reason to identify Intel in their marketing. Creating Intel’s brand awareness among dealers and consumers ultimately lead to higher perceived value of the computers which had ‘Intel Inside’. Consumers started understanding the value of Intel microprocessors and could now differentiate

The company then chose a name for its latest microprocessor introduction that could be trademarked‚ Pentium‚ and launched the “Intel Inside” campaign to build brand awareness of its whole family of microprocessors. Fortunately‚ the campaign helped move the brand name outside the PC and into the minds of consumers. Other ways were adapted just to create brand identity
