Claude Shannon

Claude Shannon was the true inventor of computer's working procedure and when he gave that theory there were no computer on that time. Actually there were computers but comparing with the modern technology and computer those computers were nothing but he gave the theory for modern computers. When he was a boy, he completed the design of a plane and he also made that plane practically.

He also invented a telegraph to contact with his friend and the distance between their houses was half a mile. He also owned a fix-it shop for machines and that shop situated in the back part of a drug store. Norbert Wiener and George Boole were his famous and favorite teachers and he studies under those two teachers and he completed his master degree with the help of them. He proved in thesis of his master's degree that the decision of a computer can be made by a simple series of yes or no buttons or switches.

His Inventions

The idea of using only yes and no switches had changed the principal theory of modern computer. He gave this decision before anyone of this world could do so, he measured the highest volume or called as channel capacity for binary digits that also called as the bits. This rule was first used for telephone lines but later on the optical fibers and now also used with the wireless communicating theory of modern technology.

Cryptology was his famous subject and he made some coded theory what could change a message unreadable if you could not disfigure it clearly. By his theory, a few bits were added with each line so the result was changed and none could regain the original information except the person who made the changes.

This change made the security for valuable information and from that time this theory has been applied in our daily life. He worked with many famous scientists and he invented machines related to the computers and many of his inventions are stilling functioning in this modern age.

His Career

He had a long career with the MIT and in his career he was known as the Eccentric Genius of the university. He always did every thing on his own mathematical ways and for most of the time he got success. The MIT helped him with every thing they got and that helped him to do some expensive experiment and ultimately those experiments came out with the result that would needed for the modern computer's expanding. His theories and experiments showed many unknown results what people were trying to collect for many years. His binary theory made the work easier to invent upgraded materials for the modern computer and for this modern computing system he invented, life has become easier and smarter.
