3. Herman Hollerith (1860-1929)
Herman Hollerith was born in Buffalo, New York, on February 29,
1860, son of German immigrant parents due to the turbid
condition of Germany in this epoch.
In 1970 they move to New York, where it would enter the public
school. Where even being a brilliant child, it had many problems in
the college due to his bad pronunciation, which leads to being
separated of the school and a private teacher contracted that him
tutorage.
In a little time it manages to join Columbia's University, to the age
of 15 years (1875) where it graduated with high honors 4 years
afterwards as Mining engineer.
4. Since and when I revolutionize in the tecnologuia
In 1884, Hollerith requested his first patents to register his
strip of paper and the process of codification. During two
following years, Hollerith devoted himself to apply his
invention to the statistics of health of some North American
cities, while it was continuing perfecting his design and his
functioning.
In 1889 his invention, the machine tabulator, works out
winning in a contest organized by the Office of the Census. It
is used to realize the census 1890 and it had excellent results.

6. The tabulating machine
The origin of the machine tabulator goes back to 1879, year in
which Hollerith (with 19 years and newly graduation in the
Columbia School of Mine) begins to be employed as special
agent at the Office of Censuses. There it had occasion to be
employed at the accomplishment of the census of 1880. This
allowed him to verify firsthand the inefficiency of the method
used for the withdrawal of information (completely manual).
7. The card drill
The punch card patented by Herman Hollerith on June 8,
1887 and used in the machines tabuladoras mechanical in the
census of 1890 of The United States of America, was a chunk
of cardboard of about 90 mm for 215 mm, with round orifices
and 24 columns.
This card can be a sight in the site of History of the
Computation of the University of Columbia.2 This card had
the same size that an American dollar in that epoch.

codes, languages and a half that allow the legibility and
interpretation of information and graphical, visual messages
and multimedia.
14. INTERNET
(MAIL ELCTRONICO-MARINERS)
