Charles Babbage (1791 - 1871) is generally called father of computers. There are several other people who came later who also share tiles like that, including Alan Turing, John Atanasoff, John von Neumann, Konrad Zuse.

John von Neumann invented the concept of a stored program. Prior to this invention, computers were strictly data-flow machines, and programming was effected by rewiring of the machine.
