There are several advantages in making computers as small al possible.
Sometimes weight is particularly important. A modern aircraft, for example,
carries quite a load of electronic apparatus. If it is possible to make any of
these smaller, and therefore lighter, the aircraft can carry a bigger load. This
kind of consideration applies to space satellites and to all kinds of computers
that have to be carried about.
But weight is not the only factor. The smaller the computer the faster it
can work. The signals go to and from at a very high but almost constant
speed. So if one can scale down all dimensions to, let us say, one tenth, the
average lengths of the current paths will be reduced to one tenths. So, very
roughly speaking, scaling down of all linear dimensions in the ration of one
to ten also gives a valuable advantage, the speed of operation is scaled up
to 10 times. Other techniques allow even further speed increase.
The increase of operation is a real advantage. Another advantage is that
less power is required to run the computer. In space satellites this is an important
matter. Another advantage is reliability. Mini-computers have been made
possible by the development of integrated circuits. Repair of any kind is no
longer needed. If one component circuit develops a fault, all that is needed is
to locate the faulty unit, throw it away and plug in a new one.
