Zuse's machines are historically important because they anticipated many features of modern computers. Specifically, these include the separation of processor and memory, the ability to compute with floating-point numbers, a hardware architecture based on microprogramming of the instruction set, and a layered design with a high-level programming language on top. In fact, Zuse's early computers are closer to modern computers than the Harvard Mark I or ENIAC, two other contenders for the title of "world's first computer." The theoretical program first conceived by Zuse in 1936/37 was fulfilled with a series of machines built before and during World War II: the Z1, Z2, Z3, and Z4. Separate chapters deal with the architecture of each computer, culminating in the description of Plankalkül, the first proposal for a high-level programming language. Students of the sciences and practitioners of computer science should have no trouble following the material. The concise introductory summary sets the reader on the historical path to retrace this remarkable intellectual adventure. 001482467 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 18, 2023). 001482467 60010 $$aZuse, Konrad$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000110699749 001482467 650_6 $$aOrdinateurs$$zAllemagne$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001482467 650_6 $$aInformatique$$zAllemagne$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001482467 650_0 $$aComputers$$zGermany$$xHistory$$y20th century.$$0(DLC)sh 85000011 001482467 650_0 $$aComputer science$$zGermany$$xHistory$$y20th century.$$0(DLC)sh2007006411 001482467 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482467 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001482467 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031398750$$z9783031398759$$w(OCoLC)1388401700 001482467 830_0 $$aHistory of computing (London, England),$$x2190-684X 001482467 852__ $$bebk 001482467 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-39876-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482467 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482467$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482467 980__ $$aBIB 001482467 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482467 982__ $$aEbook 001482467 983__ $$aOnline 001482467 994__ $$a92$$bISE
