Extractions: Von Neumann writes the "First Draft" In June 1944, the Hungarian- American mathematician Johann (John) Von Neumann first became aware of ENIAC Von Neumann, who was a consultant on the Manhattan Project , immediately recognized the role that could be played by a computer like ENIAC in solving the vast arrays of complex equations involved in designing atomic weapons. a A brilliant mathematician, Von Neumann crossed mathematics with subjects such as philosophy in ways that had never previously been conceived; for example, he was a pioneer of Game Theory , which continues to find numerous and diverse applications to this day. Von Neumann was tremendously excited by ENIAC and quickly became a consultant to both the ENIAC and EDVAC projects. In June 1945, he published a paper entitled "First Draft of a report to the EDVAC," in which he presented all of the basic elements of a stored-program computer: A memory containing both data and instructions. Also to allow both data and instruction memory locations to be read from, and written to, in any desired order. A calculating unit capable of performing both arithmetic and logical operations on the data.

Extractions: John von Neumann matemático Húngaro-Americano que demostró en 1944 que las mecánicas de la onda de Schrödinger y las mecánicas de la matriz de Heisenberg eran matemáticamente equivalente. Él también desarrolló la teoría de los juegos (1944). Su padre, Max Neumann, era un banquero judío y su madre la hija de un rico comerciante. Max Neumann compró un título nobiliario (por aquella época, la nobleza estaba mejor considerada que la riqueza), aunque él nunca lo utilizó, pero sí su hijo John. Esta es la razón del «von» que acompaña al nombre. John, era el mayor de tres hermanos. De pequeño ya asombraba a todos por su memoria; dicen que leía una columna de la guía telefónica varias veces y era capaz de responder a las preguntas que le hiciesen de nombres, domicilios o teléfono. Cuando ingresó al colegio su primer profesor se dio cuenta que era un genio (por cierto en el mismo colegio también estaba Eugene Wigner, que fue intimo amigo de Neumann el resto de su vida. Wigner se dedicó a la física, porque, según dijo, después de conocer a Neumann me di cuenta de la diferencia que había entre un matemático de primera y yo. Neumann, ingresó como docente a la universidad de Berlín en 1926, donde estuvo hasta 1929. Luego, en el año académico 1929-30, se desempeñó como profesor en la universidad de Hamburgo. Durante este tiempo él trabajó principalmente en física cuántica y teoría operativa. También, entre 1926 y 1927 estudió en Göttingen (Hilbert fue su profesor). Ya, en esa época, los brillantes dotes de Neumann habían empezado a reconocerse.

Extractions: A Hungarian-American mathematician who made important contributions to set theory , computer science, economics, and quantum mechanics . He received a Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Budapest and later he worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. The book Games and Economic Behavior , which he co-authored with Oskar Morgenstern in 1944, is considered a seminal work in the field of game theory. Von Neumann devised the so-called von Neumann architecture used in all modern computers and studied cellular automata in order to construct the first examples of self-replicating automata, now known as von Neumann machines. Von Neumann had a mind of great ingenuity, nearly total recall of what he'd learned, immense arrogance, and a great love of jokes and humor. See also von Neumann probe

http://www.eingang.org/Lecture/neumann.html

Extractions: As a result of these techniques and several others, computing and programming became faster, more flexible, and more efficient, with the instructions in subroutines performing far more computational work. Frequently used subroutines did not have to be reprogrammed for each new problem but could be kept intact in "libraries" and read into memory when needed. Thus, much of a given program could be assembled from the subroutine library. The all-purpose computer memory became the assembly place in which parts of a long computation were stored, worked on piecewise, and assembled to form the final results. The computer control served as an errand runner for the overall process. As soon as the advantages of these techniques became clear, the techniques became standard practice. The first generation of modern programmed electronic computers to take advantage of these improvements appeared in 1947. This group included computers using random access memory (RAM), which is a memory designed to give almost constant access to any particular piece of information. These machines had punched-card or punched-tape input and output devices and RAMs of 1,000-word. Physically, they were much more compact than ENIAC: some were about the size of a grand piano and required 2,500 small electron tubes, far fewer than required by the earlier machines. The first- generation stored-program computers required considerable maintenance, attained perhaps 70% to 80% reliable operation, and were used for 8 to 12 years. Typically, they were programmed directly in machine language, although by the mid-1950s progress had been made in several aspects of advanced programming. This group of machines included EDVAC and UNIVAC, the first commercially available computers.

Extractions: About John von Neumann John von Neumann was born in Budapest Hungary on December 28th, 1903. Von Neumann's genius showed through early on in his childhood. At the age of six he was already showing an interest in math and was able to exchange jokes with his father in classical Greek. By the age of eight he became fascinated with history and read all forty-four volumes of the universal history, which resided in the familys library. John von Neumann received his early education at the Lutheran Gymnasium under the tutelage of Michael Fekete with whom he published his first paper at the age of eighteen. Von Neumann studied chemistry at the University of Berlin, until 1923 when he went to Technische Hochschule in Zurich where he received his diploma in Chemical Engineering in 1925. Von Neumann subsequently received his doctoral degree in Mathematics in 1928 from the University of Budapest at the age of twenty-two. His dissertation topic was set theory. Near the end of 1929, von Neumann was offered a visiting lectureship on quantum theory at Princeton University and by 1931 he was appointed full-time professor. In 1933 he was asked to be one of the original six Professors of Mathematics at the newly founded Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton. He retained this position for the rest of his life.

View all titles in this topic Hot New Articles by Topic Automotive Sports Top Articles Ever by Topic Automotive Sports John von Neumann's contribution to economic science International Social Science Review Fall-Winter, 2003 by Maria Joao Cardoso De Pina Cabral Von Neumann proved to be a brilliant young mathematician. Between 1922 and 1927, he produced eighteen major mathematical articles. Much of his early research can best be described as a response to Hilbert's mathematical program. (14) Sometimes called the "formalist" school of mathematics, (15) this approach was concerned with both the foundations of mathematics and axiomatization of mathematical physics. The attempt to establish various areas of mathematics on a secure axiomatic basis stood at the core of Hilbert's program, and von Neumann's projects were included in it. (16) Both men were interested in demonstrating how mathematics could become a widely applicable tool, even in fields that were, until then, not easy to formalize mathematically. (17) In explaining von Neumann's contributions to economics in this manner, his work reflects a belief in the relevant role mathematics could play in science and society rather than a genuine interest in economic issues.

http://www.csupomona.edu/~hnriley/www/VonN.html

Extractions: Any discussion of computer architectures, of how computers and computer systems are organized, designed, and implemented, inevitably makes reference to the "von Neumann architecture" as a basis for comparison. And of course this is so, since virtually every electronic computer ever built has been rooted in this architecture. The name applied to it comes from John von Neumann, who as author of two papers in 1945 [Goldstine and von Neumann 1963, von Neumann 1981] and coauthor of a third paper in 1946 [Burks, et al. 1963] was the first to spell out the requirements for a general purpose electronic computer. The 1946 paper, written with Arthur W. Burks and Hermann H. Goldstine, was titled "Preliminary Discussion of the Logical Design of an Electronic Computing Instrument," and the ideas in it were to have a profound impact on the subsequent development of such machines. Von Neumann's design led eventually to the construction of the EDVAC computer in 1952. However, the first computer of this type to be actually constructed and operated was the Manchester Mark I, designed and built at Manchester University in England [Siewiorek, et al. 1982]. It ran its first program in 1948, executing it out of its 96 word memory. It executed an instruction in 1.2 milliseconds, which must have seemed phenomenal at the time. Using today's popular "MIPS" terminology (millions of instructions per second), it would be rated at .00083 MIPS. By contrast, some current supercomputers are rated at in excess of 1000 MIPS. And yet, these computers, such as the Cray systems and the Control Data Cyber 200 models, are still tied to the von Neumann architecture to a large extent.
