...Telecommunications Evolution Timeline Dawn Cramer Fundamentals of Networking January 27, 2014 Dr. Phillip D. Coleman Microsoft Word In 1981 the first version of Microsoft Word was developed for Windows by Charles Simonyi and Richard Brodie. Charles Simonyi and Richard Brodie were both programmers who worked on Xerox Bravo to produce the first WYSIWYG word processor. WYSIWYG better known as what you see is what you get by web page designers. Word 1.0 that was released in October of 1983 designed for Xenix and MS-DOS and was followed by four similar versions which were not very successful. Then in 1986 Microsoft Word was created for the Atari ST which went by the name of Microsoft Write. Microsoft Write was released in 1988 as a one-time release that would not have updates or revisions. Microsoft write was one of two major PC applications that was released for Atari ST. The other major PC application that was released for Atari ST was Word Perfect. Word Perfect created for Windows was a failure and was a fatal mistake. In 1989 the first version of Microsoft Word for Windows was released with improved interface. This resulted in the release of Windows 3.0 in 1990 which increased sales and was a very big commercial success but it was version 2.0 that established Microsoft Word as a market leader which was released in 1991. In 1992 Word 5.1 was released for Macintosh which became a popular word processor due to its features and ease of use. Word 6.0 designed for Macintosh...

...The earth is known to be old, but what is the truth of how old is the earth. There is scientific evidence of how old it is, some would say it’s Billions of years and some would say Thousands of years old. There is a lot of factors like rocks layers, plants, animals, sun, moon and many more facts that can predict how many years has the earth been around. But to find the truth if it’s a Billions of years or Thousands of years we would have to compare the two and even look into scientist discovering facts. Or do we go off the what God has created and the Bibles authors? When we read about how or what makes the earth Billions of years? There was a Geologic time scale that was invented in 1800’s. Within this invention, this scale was only to find the geologic ages, with out the information of periods or events. By this we believe the earth was formed about 4 billions years ago. This dates have been proven by analyzing samples of rocks , solar systems, and minerals. Scientist have collaborated and scientifically giving proves of objects, like how old it the oldest rock on earth or the oldest mineral and where did it come from. Material (Oldest earth rock), Age (4.0 billion years), and Methods (radiometric) our how the geologic scale combinations of specific source that tell the what scientist have documented and dated there sources. These are examples of why some assume the age of the earth is a billion years old. One big scientists believer was James Hutton studied...

...Telecommunication Evolution Timeline The way we communicate with one another across distances large and small has changed radically over the last century. We as a nation have gone from the basic telephone used to talk to others across the country to “smart” phones that can be used to not only talk to one another but send text messages and surf the internet. In this paper we will review a few of the major milestones of the telecommunication industry. The first form of telecommunication was the telephone, invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. This invention would later open the door to a variety of different types of communications. Another important milestone was the created of the Bell Company monopoly in 1888. By securing patents the company was able to manufacture equipment and provide telephone services with no competition. Most young people today do not remember a time before touch tone service. They take the menu prompt they hear when calling a company for granted. This touch-tone service did not exist until 1963. We can now choose one for accounting or two for the help desk. The next major milestone in telecommunications is the internet. Many think of the internet as the “information super highway” we use today. The Internet was created in 1969 as a result of the Cold War. It was created to be an effective form of communication in case of a nuclear war. It was meant to be used by the military, but with the introduction of a new interface in the 1990s...

...Telecommunications Industry: Evolution Timeline Marquita Sparks NTC362 – Week 1 – A. Carpenter August 27, 2015 When speaking about the evolution of telecommunications, this spans across approximately 200 years and has gone through leap years of innovations. The pre-historic age brought about using the smoke from fire to send signals to others from miles away. In the Ancient Greek book, The Iliad by Homer, smoke fires were mentioned in those pages which were dated to have been written about the early 1200s B.C. Later, approximately 700 B.C., carrier pigeons were trained to take a message from one person to another by memorized route. This was a tactic that became popularized especially during the Olympic Games of Athens, Greece, and later in wars with the Persians and the Mongolians. In the late 1700s, the French-born Chappe brothers invented the Semaphore system, which consisted of movable arms on a pole that denoted letters; the first commercial semaphore was invented about 1794 and spread from Paris to Russian, Italy, and Germany; these towers only lasted until about 1860. In 1843, Alexander Bain invented the first FAX, which was followed closely by the electric Telegraph which was invented by Samuel Morse in 1844. The “Morse Code” was widely used to send distress signals especially during times of war or maritime disaster. It wasn’t until 1876 that Alexander Graham Bell invented the first Telephone and applies for a patent. However, Elisha Gray, founder of Western...

...Differentiated Activities Supporting Activity: Introduction to Voice Telecommunications • Discuss the history and progression of the voice telecommunications industry. What are the current voice network standards? Communication is the way in which we connect. It has been around since the beginning of time with smoke signals, cave paintings to text messages, and video messages. Communication has revolutionized the way people connect and stay connected. Telecommunication is the science of communication over a long distance using telephone or radio technology.(Pearson.1) Telecommunications involves everything from radios, video communications, data, computers, telephones, and other devices. Telecommunication has evolved over the course of the history, however voice communication didn’t take off until the invention of the telephone by Alexander Graham Bell in 1878(Tele History). From then on came the radio communication in 1896. The telephone was finally revolutionized in the 1984 with the invention of the cellular phone. During the time of the cellular phone was being made, the internet was being transform for regular use with the send of the first email in 1974, it wasn’t long, 24 years later before it started to catch on with the introduction of the World Wide Web.(Tele History) During these time periods voice communication was being transition from rotary phone, to cell phones, smart phones, and now the future of IP, internet protocol. The current standards have moved...

...wireless computer networks, but you will have to keep in mind that this all was started with the telephone and branched out toward computers and other handheld devices. Me like everyone else probably had never really look at wireless as a very vast network which started in 1876 when the phone was invented by Alexander Graham. In 1877, Charles Williams of Somerville Ma had the first private telephone was installed in the home. Four years later over 47,850 telephones were in use in the U.S. (Fowler, 2009). This was the start of the evolution of Wi-Fi, Guglielmo Marconi, an Italian inventor took it a step closer nine years later, and he proved the feasibility of radio communications by sending and receiving the first radio signal. Then in 1869, the first wireless signal across the English Channel was flasher by Marconi. (Fowler, 2009) This should not be confused with the Birth of Telecommunication as some people have linked Telecommunication with wireless communications as John M Shea, an associate Professor of electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Florida did in an article were he stated in “The History of Wireless Communications” that The first telegraph? Perhaps drum communication [wikipedia] or signal torches, such as those used for communication in ancient Greece [mlahanas.de] as early as 1100s BC? (Shea, 2011) First of all it was not a good source and I he did leave out the invention of the telephone. So now you want to ask why go wireless...
