Univac Division Title: Sperry Rand Corporation, Univac Division records ID: 1825.I Date [inclusive]: 1935-1985 Physical Description: 616 Linear Feet Language of the English . Material: Abstract: The Sperry Corporation was an electronics company and the UNIVAC Division manufactured the first commercial digital computer. The Sperry UNIVAC division has its origins in the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation (EMCC), founded in 1946 by J. Presper Eckert (1919-1995) and John W. Mauchly (1907-1980). In 1950, Eckert and Mauchly sold their firm to Remington Rand, Inc, a major manufacturer of business machines, who continued development of the UNIVAC system. The collection documents most of Sperry-Univac's major company functions and includes a large body of materials generated by the Sperry-Honeywell lawsuit that revolved around the question about who invented the first electronic-digital computer. ^ Return to Table of Contents Historical Note The Sperry Corporation was an electronics company and the UNIVAC Division manufactured the first commercial digital computer.

  • UNIVAC I Computer System
    Saved from the Internet on 3/9/2010 Created by Allan Reiter UNIVAC I Computer System After you look at this yellow page go to the blue page to find out how UNIVAC I really worked. My name is Allan Reiter and in 1954 began my career with a company in St Paul, Minnesota called Engineering Research Associates (ERA) that was part of the Remington Rand Corporation. I was hired with 3 friends, Paul S. Lawson, Vernon Sandoz, and Robert Kress. We were buddies who met in the USAF where we were trained and worked on airborne radar on B-50 airplanes. In a way this was the start of our computer career because the radar was controlled by an analog computer known as the Q- 24. After discharge from the USAF Paul from Indiana and Vernon from Texas drove up to Minnesota to visit me. They said they were looking for jobs. We picked up a newspaper and noticed an ad that sounded interesting and decided to check it out. The ad said they wanted people with military experience in electronics. All three of us were hired at 1902 West Minnehaha in St. Paul. We then looked up Robert Kress (from Iowa) and he was hired a few days later. The four of us then left for Philadelphia with three cars and one wife. Robert took his wife Brenda along. This was where the UNIVAC I was being built. Parts of the production facilities were on an upper floor of a Pep Boys building. Another building on Allegheny Avenue had a hydraulic elevator operated with water pressure.

  • Technical Details of the Elliott 152 and 153
    Appendix 1 Technical Details of the Elliott 152 and 153 Introduction The Elliott 152 computer was part of the Admiralty’s MRS5 (medium range system 5) naval gunnery project, described in Chap. 2. The Elliott 153 computer, also known as the D/F (direction-finding) computer, was built for GCHQ and the Admiralty as described in Chap. 3. The information in this appendix is intended to supplement the overall descriptions of the machines as given in Chaps. 2 and 3. A1.1 The Elliott 152 Work on the MRS5 contract at Borehamwood began in October 1946 and was essen- tially finished in 1950. Novel target-tracking radar was at the heart of the project, the radar being synchronized to the computer’s clock. In his enthusiasm for perfecting the radar technology, John Coales seems to have spent little time on what we would now call an overall systems design. When Harry Carpenter joined the staff of the Computing Division at Borehamwood on 1 January 1949, he recalls that nobody had yet defined the way in which the control program, running on the 152 computer, would interface with guns and radar. Furthermore, nobody yet appeared to be working on the computational algorithms necessary for three-dimensional trajectory predic- tion. As for the guns that the MRS5 system was intended to control, not even the basic ballistics parameters seemed to be known with any accuracy at Borehamwood [1, 2]. A1.1.1 Communication and Data-Rate The physical separation, between radar in the Borehamwood car park and digital computer in the laboratory, necessitated an interconnecting cable of about 150 m in length.

  • Magnetic Peripherals Inc Storage Module Drive Vintage: C.1975 Synopsis: 14-Inch Cartridge Disk Drive
    AccessionIndex: TCD-SCSS-T.20121208.028 Accession Date: 8-Dec-2012 Accession By: Tom Kearney Object name: Magnetic Peripherals Inc Storage Module Drive Vintage: c.1975 Synopsis: 14-inch cartridge disk drive. S/N: 652128. Description: Magnetic Peripherals Inc (MPI), of Minneapolis, Minnesota , was a joint venture formed by Control Data Corporation (CDC) and Honeywell Bull in 1975. CDC contributed their disk drive facilities at Normandale and Omaha, USA. Honeywell contributed its ex-GE disk plant at Oklahoma City and CII-Honeywell Bull’s plant at Heppenheim, Germany. Its early products were IBM-3330-like third generation disk drives, superceded by IBM-3340/3350/3370-like drives, all with IBM interfaces or Storage Module Device (SMD) interfaces. It became a major player in the hard disk drive market. It was the world wide leader in 14-inch disk drive technology in the OEM marketplace in the 1970s and early 1980s, especially with its SMD and CMD (Cartridge Module Drive) interfaces, and with its 24-hour/7-days-a-week plant at Brynmawr in South Wales, which celebrated the production of 1 million disks and 3 million magnetic tapes in Oct-1979. MPI was renamed Imprimus in 1988 and was bought by Seagate in 1989. The drive in this collection looks almost identical to a CDC9762 80MB disk drive, introduced in 1974 by CDC, see Figures 21 and 22. However, the drive in this collection was made in Portugal by Magnetic Peripherals Inc, and from the rear can be seen to have a different interface, which looks very like an SMD interface.

  • The UNIVAC System, 1948
    5 - The WHAT*S YOUR PROBLEM? Is it the tedious record-keepin% and the arduous figure-work of commerce and industry? Or is it the intricate mathematics of science? Perhaps yoy problem is now considered im ossible because of prohibitive costs asso- ciated with co b methods of solution.- The UNIVAC* SYSTEM has been developed by the Eckert-Mauchly Computer to solve such problems. Within its scope come %fm%s as diverse as air trarfic control, census tabu- lakions, market research studies, insurance records, aerody- namic desisn, oil prospecting, searching chemical literature and economic planning. The UNIVAC COMPUTER and its auxiliary equipment are pictured on the cover and schematically pre- sented on the opposite page. ELECTRONS WORK FASTER.---- thousands of times faster ---- than re- lavs and mechanical parts. The mmuses the in- he&ently high speed *of the electron tube to obtain maximum roductivity with minimum equipment. Electrons workfaster %an ever before in the newly designed UNIVAC CO~UTER, in which little more than one-millionth of a second is needed to deal with a decimal d'igit. Coupled with this computer are magnetic tape records which can be read and classified while new records are generated at a rate of ten thousand decimal- digits per second. f AUTOMATIC OPERATION is the key to greater economies in the 'hand- ling of all sorts of information, both numerical and alpha- betic. For routine tasks only a small operating staff is re- -qured. Changing from one job to another is only a matter of a few minutes. Flexibilit and versatilit are inherent in the UNIVAC methoM o e ectronic *contro ma in9 use of an ex- tremely large storage facility for ttmemorizi@ instructions~S LOW MAINTENANCE AND HIGH RELIABILITY are assured by a design which draws on the technical skill of a group of engineers who have specialized in electronic computing techniques.

    An IT Legacy Paper February 2020 Starring the Computer Computers in Movies and Television Introduction Keith Myhre sent me, Lowell, a link to the Univac 422 computer information on the title website - http://www.starringthecomputer.com/. The website author, James Carter, wrote: “Starring the Computer is a website dedicated to the use of computers in film and television. Each appearance is catalogued and rated on its importance (i.e.. how important it is to the plot), realism (how close its appearance and capabilities are to the real thing) and visibility (how good a look does one get of it). Fictional computers don't count (unless they are built out of bits of real computer), so no HAL9000 - sorry.” The 400+ manufacturers’ names are a virtual who’s-who of the computer industry.
