* 1910 – Konrad Zuse, German engineer and inventor, invented the Z3 computer ( d. 1995 )

Konrad Zuse (; 1910 – 1995 ) was a German civil engineer, inventor and computer pioneer.

The Z3, the first fully operational electromechanical computer, was partially financed by German government-supported DVL ( Deutsche Versuchsanstalt für Luftfahrt, i. e. German Research Institute for Aviation ), which wanted their extensive calculations automated.

The approach has several features that make it unique: the models are implemented as computer programs, which enables clear-cut and quantitative predictions to be made ; they learn from naturalistic input, made of actual child-directed utterances ; they produce actual utterances, which can be compared with children's utterances ; and they have simulated phenomena in several languages, including English, Spanish, and German.

He was then replaced in 1988 by the former manager of German computer company Nixdorf Computer AG, Arno Bohn, who made some costly miscalculations that led to his dismissal soon after, along with that of the development director, Dr. Ulrich Bez, who was formerly responsible for BMW's Z1 model, and today is CEO of Aston Martin.
