| | Wearable - The latest trend in computing is wearable computers. | | | These computers usually do not have keyboards but rely on touchscreen technology for user input. | | | While the term computer can apply to virtually any device that has a microprocessor in it, most people think of a computer as a device that receives input from the user through a mouse or keyboard, processes it in some fashion and displays the result on a screen. |

| | Mainframe computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Most mainframes (rumoured to be 90%) have IBM's CICS software installed. | | | Supercomputers are optimized for complicated computations that take place largely in memory, while mainframes are optimized for simple computations involving huge amounts of external data accessed from databases ("mixed workload"). | | | Modern mainframe computers have abilities not so much defined by their performance capabilities as by their high-quality internal engineering and resulting proven reliability, expensive but high-quality technical support, top-notch security, and strict backward compatibility for older software. |

| | After the emergence of smaller "{minicomputer}" designs in the early 1970s, the traditional {big iron} machines were described as "mainframe computers" and eventually just as mainframes. | | | It has been common wisdom among hackers since the late 1980s that the mainframe architectural tradition is essentially dead (outside of the tiny market for {number crunching} {supercomputer}s (see {Cray})), having been swamped by the recent huge advances in {integrated circuit} technology and low-cost personal computing. | | | The term carries the connotation of a machine designed for batch rather than interactive use, though possibly with an interactive {time-sharing} operating system retrofitted onto it; it is especially used of machines built by {IBM}, {Unisys} and the other great {dinosaurs} surviving from computing's {Stone Age}. |

| | Armonk, New York-based IBM built its business on the back of the mainframe computer, a dinosaur that has survived technology changes that have made most computers much smaller and cheaper than a mainframe. | | | The computers are aimed at these companies whose processing and transaction systems are based on computer code that only a mainframe with its large capacity can handle, said Carl Greiner, an analyst at market research firm Meta Group in Stamford, Connecticut, who was briefed last week. | | | The computer services, hardware and software company declined to comment on the analyst briefing on the mainframe or on the content of the meeting on Tuesday. |

| | The term mainframe was originally coined to refer to the very large computer systems that occupied very large steel framed boxes, and was used to differentiate them from the smaller mini- or micro-computers. | | | Although some have used the term "mainframe" to refer to IBM's AS/400 or iSeries systems, this is an improper use of the term; even IBM considers those systems as mid-range servers rather than mainframes. | | | I will assume that the reader is familiar with general computer concepts and technologies, and will present the information in terms that should be familiar to PC or Unix geeks. |
