It plays an important role in the nervous system as well as in the endocrine system.It is linked to another small and vital gland called the pituitary gland.hese hypothalamic releasing hormones control and regulate the secretion of pituitary hormones. Functions of the hypothalamus can be listed as: 1  controls the release of 8 major hormones by the pituitary gland. 2  controls body temperature.
The first electronic stored-program digital computer to be proposed in the U.S. was the EDVAC (see below). The âFirst Draft of a Report on the EDVACâ (May 1945), composed by von Neumann, contained little engineering detail, in particular concerning electronic hardware (owing to restrictions in the U.S.).
1 The first working computer (in the modern sense) was invented by Konrad Zuse. 2  But others had created machines or ideas close to it before. 3  These were people like Pascal, Leibniz and Turing.4  The first patent for a working computer (outside the military) was the UNIVAC, created by Drs. Charles Babbage invented the concept of a programmable computer in about 1825. 2  It partly depends on what you mean by computer, but the earliest claim is that Charles Babbage invented the first programmable computer in 1822.
