4 Type of R O M Masked R O M –
A bit pattern is permanently recorded. Specialised Manufacturing Process. Very Expensive
P R O M - Programmable Read Only Memory Can be programmed by User Using PROM Prgm can burn the fuses according to the bit
pattern - “Burning the PROM”
E P R O M – Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. Info stored is Semi-Permanent. Can be erased by exposing the memory to Ultra Violet Rays. Can be programmed again Most commonly used

E E P R O M – Electricity Erasable -
Programmable Read Only Memory Similar to EPROM Info can be altered using electrical signals Manufacturing process is quite complex Not commonly Used Very Expensive

Types of Computer
Analog Digital Hybrid
Analog - Solves Problem by operating on contineous Variables.
Digital - performs arithmetic, logical & comparative functions on info in digital form
Combines features of Analog & Digital

Generation of Computers
1st - Tubes & Vales, large in size, Slow operating Speed, Limited Programming
Capacity, Short Life Span, Generated lot heat
2nd - Transistors , smaller in size, faster speed, lesser in cost & High reliability
3rd - Semiconductors, CHIP made of IC’s in mid 60’s, increased ALU capability,
ability to perform parallel operation, improvement of instructions, much smaller ,
reduction in cost drastically
4th - silicon chips, high resolution monitors, graphics improved,speed improved, size
& cost reduced.

Players in the supercomputing arena
In 40 years (2004) there are but a few players left in the supercomputing arena:
Cray Dell HP (absorbed: Amdahl, Compaq who ate
Digital) IBM NEC SGI Sun

Mainframe
Mainframe is an industry term for a large computer. The name comes from the way the machine is build up: all units (processing, communication etc.) were hung into a frame. Thus the main computer is build into a frame, therefore: Mainframe

Manufacturers
Amdahl, Burroughs, CDC Cray, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Hewlett Packard, IBM, Intel, NEC, SGI, Sun, Texas Instruments, Thinking Machines Univac
19 July 2006 22CPU , Gen & Current trends
Objective
A mainframe has 1 to 16 CPU's (modern machines more)
Memory ranges from 128 Mb over 8 Gigabyte on line RAM
Its processing power ranges from 80 over 550 Mips
It has often different cabinets for Storage I/O RAM
19 July 2006 23CPU , Gen & Current trends
Separate processes (program) for task management program management job management serialization catalogs inter address space communication
19 July 2006 24CPU , Gen & Current trends
Objective
centralized computing opposite from distributed computing. Meaning all computing takes (physically) place on the mainframe itself: the processor section .
main purpose is to run commercial applications of Fortune 1000 businesses and other large-scale computing purposes.
