  3. Introduction • This presentation focuses on the globalisation of computers, internet and mobile phones • Globalisation describes the process by which regional economies, societies, and cultures have become integrated through a global network of communication, transportation and trade

  4. History of ENIAC 1943-1946 • Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (“ENIAC”) unveiled on 5 June 1943-14 February1946 at a cost of $500,000 (around $6 million in 2008) was the first general purpose, electronic computer (University of Pennsylvania) • Some early digital computers of the 1940s • Zuse Z3 1941 /Germany • Atanasoff-Berry Computer 1942 / US • Colossus Mark 1 1944 / UK • The banana was first brought to Britain in the 1800s. • REF: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC

  7. Computers developed rapidly • Technical (Hardware and Software) easy installation and resolving error problem, through hotline • Economic (Size & price) bring more computer global and more companies built computer • New software such as (navigation map, health software, e.c) • Found new relationships for computer which is Internet connect world together • REF: • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open_source_healthcare_software • http://www.worldbookonline.com/wb/Article?id=ar751706.
