A Short History of Telecommunications,xisting telecom systems had limited coverage in remote areas, and so the concept of global coverage as provided by Iridium was potentially very useful. In many ways, Iridium was an engineering triumph over common sense, and over $5 billion was spent in building an infrastructure of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites to provide global coverage.

Early Commercial Computers and the Invention of the Transistor,or the military. Early IBM computers such as the IBM 701 and 704 computers are discussed, and the chapter concludes with a discussion of the invention of the transistor by William Shockley and others at Bell Labs.

向外才掩飾

The Invention of the Integrated Circuit and the Birth of Silicon Valley,emiconductor did subsequent work on silicon-based integrated circuits. Moore’s law on the exponential growth of transistor density on an integrated circuit is discussed, as well as its relevance to the computing power of electronic devices.

Charlatan

Minicomputers and Later Mainframes,o slow in reacting to the rise of the microprocessor and the revolution in home computers. Later mainframes are discussed including the Amdahl 470V/6 and the intense competition between IBM and Amdahl in the high-end mainframe market.

While ESNAM ?reflects the state-of-the-art in ?social network research, the field ?had its start in the 1930s when fundamental issues in social network research were broadly defined. These communities were limited to relativel
