3 Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum für Informationstechnik Berlin
founded in 1984 by the Senate of Berlin: “Gesetz über das Zentrum für Informationstechnik (ZInfG)” “Dual Concept” SC: scientific computing CS: computer science & computer services ~200 staff members inclusive students and regular guests fast algorithms fast computers

4 The Roots: Konrad Zuse 1938: Zuse Z1, first programmable mechanical computer destroyed in World War II 1941: Zuse Z3, first programmable electromagnetic computer 2000 relays, 1/3 Flop/s Konrad Zuse Z1 has many features of a modern computer: freely programmable separate memory control unit with micro sequencer floating point arithmetic
