http://www.coolmath4kids.com/calculators/abacus/

Extractions: History of the Abacus In the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Rome, and China, pencil and paper were luxuries and the numbering system was clumsy. Therefore, calculations were carried out using counting stones and rods. In fact, the Latin word for pebble, calculus, is the origin of the modern term calculate. In its earliest form, the abacus was a board which was incised with a series of parallel grooves. Calculations were carried out by sliding pebbles back and forth in the grooves. In a later development, beads were strung on wires or thin strips of bamboo, reducing "crashes" and making the operation of the abacus less clumsy. The most familiar form of the abacus was developed in China during the sixth century. The counters of this abacus (the suan pan) are divided into two sets, one set representing fives and the other set representing ones. This arrangement simplifies carrying while adding and borrowing while subtracting. With the introduction of Arabic numerals, the popularity of the abacus began to decline. The modern computer has only served to hasten its demise. However, the abacus still sees limited use in schools, where it is used to demonstrate numbering systems and the theory behind simple arithmetic operations.

Extractions: Rev 1.02 - March 23, 2004 INTRODUCTION The Abacus (or Soroban as it is called in Japan) is an ancient mathematical instrument used for calculation. The Abacus is one of the worlds first real calculating tools – and early forms of an Abacus are nearly 2500 years old. The word Abacus is derived from the Greek "Abax" meaning counting board and the original types of Abacus were stone slates with dust covering them and a stylus used for marking numbers. Later this evolved into a slate with groves where rocks or other counters would be placed to mark numbers. Later it finally evolved into a framed device with beads sliding along bamboo rods. Suan Pan ) and on a Japanese Soroban . The modern Chinese abacus has been in use since about the 14th century. The Japanese Soroban has been in use since at least the 16th century. I much prefer the Japanese Soroban as a more aesthetically pleasing and a more efficient calculating instrument. There are some key differences between the two types of instruments. Here is a picture of a traditional Chinese Abacus. As you can see this instrument has 2 beads above the reckoning bar and 5 beads below it.

http://www.zurich.ibm.com/news/96/n-19961113-01.html

Extractions: Additional information University relations Women @ ZRL The world's smallest abacus Zurich/Switzerland, November 13, 1996 Scientists at the IBM Research Division's Zurich laboratory have built an abacus with individual molecules as beads with a diameter of less than one nanometer, one millionth of a millimeter. The world's smallest abacus will hardly be found at a trade fair in the Far East, where calculators of this simple kind are still used by dealers, because the "finger" required to move beads as tiny as individual molecules is the ultrafine tip of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM)—a needle of conical shape terminating in a single atom at the very tip. The STM also makes the result of a "calculation" visible when operated in imaging mode. IBM scientists succeeded in forming stable rows of ten molecules along steps just one atom high on a copper surface. These steps act as "rails", similar to the earliest form of the abacus, which had grooves instead of rods to keep the beads in line. Individual molecules were then approached by the STM tip and pushed back and forth in a precisely controlled way to count from to 10 (see image above).
