The development of today's computer so quickly and more easily used by many groups.After passing a series of long trips, in the present computer is more advanced than its predecessor. After the vacuum tube, and the discovery of the IC, so rapid development of computers. One obvious example that the development of computers so fast is a time when a leading company that Intel Corporation introduced the Intel processor pentium1 which was followed by pentium 2, pentium 3 and pentium 4. With the release of these processors can prove that indeed from time to time in the development of computers is very large. Pentium itself is the fifth-generation x86 architecture microprocessor made by Intel Corporation, whose designs created by Vinod Dham. Is the successor of the Pentium line of processors 486, and go on sale to the market first time on March 22, 1993. Real name (code) is a Pentium 80 586 or i586, to follow the naming of the previous generation.
Pentium is the first processor from Intel that use superscalar architecture, so even though the Pentium is a CISC processors are (Complex instruction set computing, or Complex Instruction Set Computer / computing complex set of instructions), can work like a Pentium processor RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing or the Simplified Instruction Set Computing), although at that time there has been no application capable mengutilisasinya.
Moreover, recently, Intel introduced the Intel dual-core processor, core2duo, and core2quad. This can attract people to switch to using computers in work, study, and others because everything can be easy.
Not only that act, but also Intel Apple and AMD is moving in hardware such as processors.
But now the computer has evolved, computers are no longer just a desktop but also has a notebook / laptops (portable computers) and PDAs (such as mobile phones).
Now, if we talk about the development of computer technology today, in this world there are some computers that not just any computer, but this is a super computer. Not everyone can have it because not only the cost to obtain it is very large but also because the super computer requires special care. There are some super computer in the world, namely in Japan, Germany, Britain, France, China, Korea, America, Columbia, etc. (to my knowledge:)).
IBM's super computer located in the U.S. in record-breaking claim as the world's fastest super computer. Super computers are made from components originally designed for video games. I was so fast, the computer is able to complete the 1026 quadrilion calculations per second. 1 quadrilion mean equal to 100,000,000,000,000 trillion and is above them.
Super computer has become the fastest after beating the previous record holder that is BlueGene / L owned Lawrenca Livermore Laboratory (in the U.S. as well). This new supercomputer named Roadrunner, once built with $ 133 million U.S. dollars, a super computer will be placed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and will be used to perform calculations and other military purposes.
So this Roadrunner extremnya speed, can be described as if the 6 billion people worldwide use the calculator out and do the calculations for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, it will take 46 years to be able to perform an equivalent calculation can be done Roadrunner for 24 hours.
But now IBM has made a super new computer again. His name is Sequoia. This new supercomputer will have the ability to 20 petaflops per second. As an illustration, Roadrunner has a processing capacity of 1026 quadrilion flop persekon (approximately 1 Map Flop per second). Well, what about the Sequoia, of course, processing speed 20 times faster than on the road runner. Or if 6 billion people worldwide use the calculator out and do the calculations for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, it will take 920 (46 × 20) years of age to perform an equivalent calculation can be done Sequoia for 24 hours.
In addition to doing calculations quickly, Sequoia also absorb tremendous energy that is equivalent to the energy needed to feed 200 million laptops.
Because the amount of energy absorbed, to the extent necessary to cool this Sequoia 96 Cooling Machine (like AC) sized to maintain a constant temperature optimum and super-sized computer requires 318 square-meter room as storage.
Super computers will be ready for launch (planned) in 2011 and will be submitted to the United States Department of Energy. Later the most powerful computer in the world (to date) will be used to simulate nuclear testing, to better predict weather or to oil exploration.
The race in the super computer technology will likely continue. After the runner's Road America to be the fastest in the World, now turn to Saudi Arabia that will build the fastest supercomputer in the Middle East. Super Computer is planned to be built on the cooperation of The King Abdullah University for Science and Technology (KAUST) and IBM. In the Middle East, this is a super computer will be the fastest, but the world will be ranked only sixth.
Well, now back to normal computer aja. Computers are often used by employees to work, students used computers to increase knowledge and do chores, and computers that use a lot of people to do many things:). Computers are widely used today is the kind of desktop and laptop / notebook.
Specifications on desktop computers today are very different from a desktop computer under the year 2000. Standard specification current computer is a computer with dual core processors such as dual-core, core 2 duo or core 2 quad speed clearly very different from old school computer (Ages first) when the year 1998 computer uses intel pentium 3 processor is great. So is the RAM (memory), are now using DDR2 clear this was better and faster than previous models such as DDR1, SDRAM, RDRAM, etc..Previously, using a VGA with 32 mb memory is already good but now it is not meet because the operating system and software currently does not support VGA with 32 mb memory except when still using the operating system and software that old. In terms of data transfer, this is now much easier because the computer currently supports data transfer using the USB (Universal Serial Bus).
USB is a serial bus standard for connecting devices, usually to a computer but is also used in other devices such as mobile phones and PDAs. USB is intended to eliminate the need for adding expansion cards into the PCI bus, and improve the ability of the plug-and-play by allowing the equipment added to the system without needing to reboot the computer. When installed on a USB device, he immediately recognized the computer system and processing the device drivers needed to run it.
USB can connect additional equipment such as computer mouse, keyboard, image scanner, digital cameras, printers, hard disk, and networking components. USB has become the standard for multimedia equipment such as image scanners and digital cameras. The latest version (through January 2005) USB is version 2.0. The most striking difference between new and old versions are a much improved transfer speeds.USB data transfer speed is divided into three, among others:
1. High speed data with clock frequency 480.00Mb / s data signaling and tolerance at ± 500ppm.
2. Full speed data with clock frequency 12.000Mb / s data signaling and tolerance at ± 0.25% or 2.500 ppm.
3. Low-speed data with clock frequency 1.50Mb / s and tolerance signaling data at ± 1.5% or 15.000 ppm.
But with each passing time and further development of technology, most people switch to using a laptop / notebook because it is more efficient. Especially with the proliferation of hotspots that allows laptop users to surf for free fun even though some are paid. This further proves the triumph of desktop personal computers (PCs) will soon be over. The signs would be the collapse of prestige products for this market control was seen at an international exhibition of electronic devices, held in Las Vegas earlier this year and various electronics exhibition in Indonesia. Mobility of people are now getting higher and they do not want constrained by their table again. On the other hand, the portable computer is called - has called the most rapid progress. Amazingly, these devices are also increasingly good at communicating, saving energy consumption, more beautiful shape, such as a desktop performance, longer battery life, and easily connected wirelessly anywhere and anytime.
Indeed, so rapid development of computers within a period of not so long since the invention of the IC. But today's computer technology could no longer use the cable? Very likely. For example, there are now a mouse and keyboard wareless sound / powered speakers that also can wirelessly connect to the computer. Even recently, ASUS a leading company located in Germany issued a wireless LCD monitor with a bunch of environmentally friendly energy consumption more efficient. Well, so it is not possible anymore if the cable will be abandoned and turned into wireless.
If it's wireless speak, is currently being warm the warmth of talks about a new product called the UMPC or Ultra Mobile PC.
That is a portable computer like a laptop but the difference lies in the screen that must be shifted before even opening it to let go. Intel was working furiously to develop devices that dream. Manufacturer of micro-processors from the United States had launched five sophisticated chip for laptops. One of them is known as Menlow. This processor will be the brains latest ultra mobile PC.
A number of corporations in other technology areas, such as Samsung, iRiver, Lenovo, LG, and Toshiba, also do not want to miss. Toshiba, for example, a portable computer showing a fairly thin-thick-notebook capable of running Windows Vista system.
There's more exciting in the world of technology, particularly the development of computers. Ever see the movie Iron Man? Well ... in the movie depicted by the stars when designing clothes robot using a computer. So is it real? The answer is, "definitely" will become a reality.
A little leak, now just a prototype computer Microsoft has made the future and is being perfected. This computer is called Microsoft Surface. In this technology, it is like we have a digital camera and a cell phone / mobile phone that already has the support wareless, well, after we photographed the object / person with a camera before, then we put the camera on a touch screen or a touchscreen that resembles a table. Once placed, then you will see images or objects that we face in the portrait before our screen without moving it. Then with this technology, the images can be enlarged, reduced, turned upside down by hand. And more exciting again. Put a cell phone was on the table. Drag the image monitored up to the phone. And immediately the image also has been moved to your memory card without us holding our mobile phone. Demonstration by Microsoft earlier this can also be viewed on Youtube site with url:

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKgU6ubBgJA
Not only that, Microsoft re-create a concept video that shows the role of technology in the world is starting 10 years from now that is precisely in the year 2019. Video titled "Microsoft's Future Vision Series: Microsoft's Vision 2019 Future Montage: Envisioning the Future HD"
This shows the world where the conversation between two people of different languages can be very easy thanks to a wall that allows users to interact with anyone in the world regardless of language used. In this video also shows a world where software can make it easier to collaborate, share ideas and bring information to anywhere.
From this video, Microsoft seems to believe that the touch-screen technology will be the primary input device. The video also shows how news content in newspapers should be displayed.
When Microsoft envision the future, the results are never disappointing. That's because Microsoft has many talented employees and invest huge amounts of money. Here's a video that is shown by the Microsoft business division president Stephen Elop the Wharton Business Technology Conference,
So with this scene one actor in the movie "Iron Man" when designing a robot suit that could have been realized. And maybe that's the future of computers. Thus we can imagine the future world as it ....? But what about Indonesia? To be sure we and the generations peneruslah determinants.
