Britain VS America: Who is the technology giant?

Sometimes, Americans are good at pretending to be someone else's name. If you believe what Hollywood movies say, it was the United States that invented the cipher machine and changed the course of World War II (in fact, it was invented by the Germans). In fact, many technologies that we think were invented by Americans are not at all, and many American inventions may not be realized without the assistance of other countries. So who is the real giant? Is it the United States that symbolizes the future or Britain that dominates the microwave field? It seems that only a duel can win a point. Computer, if Charles. Charles Babbage has built analytical machines, so Britain will undoubtedly be the winner in this field. He designed the prototype of today's machine in 1837, the first programmable computer in the world. However, it was not until the 1930 s that his works became a reality. Howard from Harvard University? Howard aiken was inspired by Babbage, and Harvard Mark I was born. Besides, computers can still do simple things without the British. Allen? Alan turing, a scholar at Cambridge University, wrote a far-reaching paper (on the application of computable numbers in judging problems) in 1936, which laid the foundation for general computing equipment. Generally speaking, we think the two sides are tied: the British are designers and the Americans make it a reality. The United States is in a leading position in the field of personal computers. William? Shockley, the co-inventor of the transistor, founded Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory in 1956. A year later, his subordinates left and founded Fairchild Semiconductor. Fairchild and Texas Machine are like Intel and AMD today. In fact, the founder of Fairchild, Robert? Robert noyce is also the founder of Intel. Intel invented the microprocessor and officially sold it in 197 1, so fans in the early 1970s could happily assemble computers in the garage. Microcomputer was not invented in America. French R2E company developed Micral, and the retail version was released at 1972. However, the popularization work was realized by American company MITS (Micro Instrument Telemetry System) through Altair. Cowherd Star contributed to the birth of the Homebrew Computer Club, a fan group, and also owned a computer club including Steve? Jobs and Steve? Members like Wozniak. The two Steve later founded Apple, a company that led the consumer computer market. This field was finally controlled by the PC operating system released by IBM at 198 1 and its derivatives, and most programming languages were invented in the United States. Many softwares are also originated in America. The first word processor electric pen was written by American Michael? The first spreadsheet VisiCalc was created by Philadelphia native Dan? The first commercial browser Mosaic created by Dan Bricklin came from the National Supercomputing Application Center (NCSA). Computer network is an American invention, George? Stibbe Stiblitz spent six years in Bell Laboratories (1940 to 1946), and developed the first machine supporting multi-users and remote operation through telephone lines. The largest Internet, to a great extent, was invented by Americans, and was promoted by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of the US Department of Defense. The first ARPANET link connected the University of California and Stanford Research Institute, and this foundation became the core of the Internet. Internet communication protocol, TCP/IP, Robert of DARPA? Robert Kahn and Waerndt from Stanford university? Vint cerf. The United States military and government agencies promote the integration of closed and separated networks into the Internet. However, without the World Wide Web, the Internet is likely to remain a tool for scientists and geeks, so the Englishman Tim? Berners-Lee is the man who turned the Internet into something ordinary. He brought Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Smartphones, iPod and Peripherals The British invented the telephone, but the mobile phone was invented by Americans. The mobile cellular phone was proposed by the engineer of Bell Laboratories in 1947, and was studied by Richard? h？ Richard frankel and Joel? s？ The technology developed by Joel Seinger has become a reality. IPhone also has British credit, Jonathan? Jonathan Ive has designed many Apple products, including the iPod. In fact, all digital music players are British inventions: British inventor Kane? Kramer registered the patent of his digital audio player in 1979 and showed it to the public in 1986. The British invented television (John? Logie? Baird created the first working TV system in 1924), and Americans invented the computer monitor (Allen? b？ Du? Monte's achievements in defrosting radio company in New Jersey make commercial CRT tubes a reality) and flat panel displays (George? Heilmeier invented the first LCD display) In the 1980s, Heilmeier was the vice president of Texas Instruments, and he was also one of the inventors of digital signal processor (DSP). You can find them in music players, mobile phones, home entertainment equipment and medical devices. Now we can reveal the answer. Who is the real technology giant?
