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.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 10 J.PRESPER ECKERT 71 J.PRESPER ECKERT 1919–1995 BY LEO L.BERANEK JOHN PRESPER ECKERT, or as he preferred, J. “Pres” Eckert, was born April 9, 1919, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He received the bachelor of science degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1941. His 1943 master of science degree in electrical engineering was from the University’s Moore School of Electrical Engineering. Pres and his wife, Judith, had four children and made their home in Gladwyne, Pennsylvania. He was known as a serious worker who wanted things done right. His family and his students at the university attest to his readiness to be helpful and his devotion to vigorous and healthy living. He died June 3, 1995, in Bryn Mawr at the age of seventy-six. A brilliant student, Pres was named a part-time laboratory instructor in his second graduate year at the Moore School. His charge was to teach the principles of engineering to students from other fields with the goal of making them able to work effectively in the World War II effort. His class comprised more than thirty students, sixteen of whom had their Ph.D.s. It was through that course that he met John W.Mauchly, whose doctorate was in physics. In 1942 and 1943, Eckert became involved in improving a version of Vannevar Bush’s differential analyzer, invented at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After considerable success, Mauchly and he discussed how much further its performance could be improved by more precisely machined parts and Copyright National Academy of Sciences. -
Sperry Rand's Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980
Sperry Rand’s Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980 George T. Gray and Ronald Q. Smith The change from transistors to integrated circuits in the mid-1960s marked the beginning of third-generation computers. A late entrant (1962) in the general-purpose, transistor computer market, Sperry Rand Corporation moved quickly to produce computers using ICs. The Univac 1108’s success (1965) reversed the company’s declining fortunes in the large-scale arena, while the 9000 series upheld its market share in smaller computers. Sperry Rand failed to develop a successful minicomputer and, faced with IBM’s dominant market position by the end of the 1970s, struggled to maintain its position in the computer industry. A latecomer to the general-purpose, transistor would be suitable for all types of processing. computer market, Sperry Rand first shipped its With its top management having accepted the large-scale Univac 1107 and Univac III comput- recommendation, IBM began work on the ers to customers in the second half of 1962, System/360, so named because of the intention more than two years later than such key com- to cover the full range of computing tasks. petitors as IBM and Control Data.

Creativity – Success – Obscurity
Author Gerry Pickering CREATIVITY – SUCCESS – OBSCURITY UNIVAC, WHAT HAPPENED? A fellow retiree posed the question of what happened. How did the company that invented the computer snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? The question piqued my interest, thus I tried to draw on my 32 years of experiences in the company and the myriad of information available on the Internet to answer the question for myself and hopefully others that may still be interested 60+ years after the invention and delivery of the first computers. Computers plural, as there were more than one computer and more than one organization from which UNIVAC descended. J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, located in Philadelphia PA are credited with inventing the first general purpose computer under a contract with the U.S. Army. But our heritage also traces back to a second group of people in St. Paul MN who developed several computers about the same time under contract with the U.S. Navy. This is the story of how these two companies started separately, merged to become one company, how that merged company named UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computers) grew to become a main rival of IBM (International Business Machines), then how UNIVAC was swallowed by another company to end up in near obscurity compared to IBM and a changing industry. Admittedly it is a biased story, as I observed the industry from my perspective as an employee of UNIVAC. It is also biased in that I personally observed only a fraction of the events as they unfolded within UNIVAC. This story concludes with a detailed account of my work assignments within UNIVAC. -

FROM News Bureau BURROUGHS CORPORATION Detroit, Michigan 48232 Phone: 875-2260, Ext
FROM News Bureau BURROUGHS CORPORATION Detroit, Michigan 48232 Phone: 875-2260, Ext. 2234 FOR RELEASE AUGUST 11, 1964 Burroughs Corporation announced today a new, modular electronic data processing system of advanced logical design -- the B5500 -- which has up to three times more productive capacity than the B5000. The powerful B5500 integrates fast new hardware with a unique automatic controlling and operating system, providing full real-time capabilities. Developed from proved-in-use design, the system is effective and econom.ical in both commercial and scientific applications. Demonstrations of the B5500 will begin in October at Burroughs ElectroData Manufacturing &: Engineering Division, Pasadena, Calif. Deliveries of the new system, which spans the medium to large scale computer range, will begin in six months. In announcing the new computer, Ray R. Eppert, Burroughs president, declared: "The extremely high productivity of the B5500 -- what we call 'throughput' -- results from the maximum utilization of new organization concepts in a balanced system that accomplishes more real work in a given period of time. "This is called rapid 'turn-around' by many B5000 users who have praised the speed with which the system can finish one job and get started on another," Eppert added. "The amount of work done, measured against the dollar investment, is what counts with the user. " The high "throughput" of the B 5500 is the product of four major abilities of the new system: - 2 - Multiprocessing techniques permit simultaneous handling of two or more programs. For example, while printing out the results of one job, the computer can perform computation on other, different problems and take in raw data on still another task.
