Background to the Computer Technology That We See All Around Us Today

From the beginning of time, man realised that he needed to take stock of his possessions in order to make informed decisions and be in control of his environment.  His possessions were not many, a few goats or sheep, a dog, two spears and an axe, maybe a few wives and an increasing number of children. Now the only computing equipment at his disposal then was his ten fingers and ten toes, but the word ten, or one, did not exist in his vocabulary.  He would allocate one finger to each goat, one to each rabbit he caught, and so on. Now, the fingers and toes allocated to the rabbits and goats were easy to deal with but had their own problems because it was difficult to remember which fingers or toes had been used to represent something, and which ones were still unallocated.

And as the number of goats increased beyond his ten fingers and his ten toes, he found himself in a serious computational dilemma. Computer people today call this an overflow – memory size exceeded. Our resourceful ancient ancestor quickly found a way around this problem by resorting to the use of sticks and stones to extend the capacity of his computing system. That turned out to be a stroke of genius because that is when rules governing addition and subtraction of digits became clearly defined. When a new goat is born, put one more stone to the pile of stones, when a new lamb is born, put one more stick to the pile of sticks. When the ancestor, or a jackal, ate one sheep he removed one stick; and when he decided to eat all his goats, he would throw away all his stones after eating, not before, to avoid confusion. Nothing could be more elegant. Much later, mathematicians discovered that they could also use this process and called it addition and subtraction. Read the rest of this entry »

Who Can Benefit From Cloud Computing Technology?

Business application software has always been known to provide critical data whenever you need it. This is why it is so popular, particularly among large businesses, because it is able to help the managers run the business smoothly. From accounting and inventory systems, relational database management systems, sales projections to enterprise resource planning, these business applications have always proved their worth in day to day operations. This is why most large businesses attribute a huge part of their success to their IT infrastructure running the different business application software.

What about the small and medium sized businesses who do not have enough funds to invest in this kind of infrastructure? Well, some of them just rely on their small scale network with a host of freebie software, maybe one or two software applications that they bought off some computer store which they found out later is different from what they are used to. However, most of them just shake their heads in resignation, looking at the stars and wishing for something to take them out of this mess. Read the rest of this entry »
