👉 Oe Computing, also known as the "Seven Principles of Computing," was a foundational concept introduced by John McCarthy in 1970, outlining seven guiding principles for computer science that emphasize the importance of adaptability and efficiency in computing systems. These principles include simplicity and smallness of specification, which advocate for clear and concise descriptions of computational tasks; portability, ensuring that programs can run on various hardware platforms; composability, which allows components to be combined in different ways to solve new problems; abstraction, focusing on hiding unnecessary details and exposing only essential features; locality, which stresses the importance of processing data that is close in time or space to improve performance; reusability, promoting the creation of modular and versatile software components; and efficiency, which emphasizes optimizing resource usage. These principles have profoundly influenced the design and development of modern computing systems, shaping paradigms like functional programming, distributed computing, and cloud computing.
