Sue Mickel Collections volunteers working on CCARP (the two-year grant-funded Collections Cataloging and Reconciliation Project) quickly learn that the museum’s collections are full of interesting surprises. On a recent Tuesday, we arrived to find that staff Collections Specialists Gretta Stimson and Sarah Schaefer had some very old logic modules for us to catalog. After more than a year of CCARPing, most of us can quickly spot a really old object. They are heavy (metal, not plastic). They are black, beige, or gray. And they feature vacuum tubes or at least the sockets that used to hold them. These modules passed all 3 tests. The excitement level rose. Just how old were these objects? The curators had left us a one-word clue on a Post-it: “DYSEAC.” Well, we knew about ENIAC and JOHNNIAC and a lot of other “IACs” but had never heard of “DYSEAC.” Was it a mistake? A quick Google search showed that our curators were right as usual.The DYSEAC was the second Standards Electronic Automatic Computer built. Where did the “dy” come from in the acronym? Well, as a guess, “dy” is a prefix (from the Greek) that means “two,” so that may be the origin. “SEAC” is actually the name of the first Standards Eastern Automatic Computer, an earlier computer built in 1950 by the U.S.

  • A Large Routine
    A large routine Freek Wiedijk It is not widely known, but already in June 1949∗ Alan Turing had the main concepts that still are the basis for the best approach to program verification known today (and for which Tony Hoare developed a logic in 1969). In his three page paper Checking a large routine, Turing describes how to verify the correctness of a program that calculates the factorial function by repeated additions. He both shows how to use invariants to establish the correctness of this program, as well as how to use a variant to establish termination. In the paper the program is only presented as a flow chart. A modern C rendering is: int fac (int n) { int s, r, u, v; for (u = r = 1; v = u, r < n; r++) for (s = 1; u += v, s++ < r; ) ; return u; } Turing's paper seems not to have been properly appreciated at the time. At the EDSAC conference where Turing presented the paper, Douglas Hartree criticized that the correctness proof sketched by Turing should not be called inductive. From a modern point of view this is clearly absurd. Marc Schoolderman first told me about this paper (and in his master's thesis used the modern Why3 tool of Jean-Christophe Filli^atreto make Turing's paper fully precise; he also wrote the above C version of Turing's program). He then challenged me to speculate what specific computer Turing had in mind in the paper, and what the actual program for that computer might have been. My answer is that the `EPICAC'y of this paper probably was the Manchester Mark 1.

  • At Grange Farm the COMPUTER – the 20Th Century’S Legacy to the Next Millennium
    Computer Commemoration At Grange Farm THE COMPUTER – the 20th century’s legacy to the next millennium. This monument commemorates the early pioneers responsible for the development of machines that led to, or indeed were, the first electronic digital computers. This spot was chosen because the COLOSSUS, the first effective, operational, automatic, electronic, digital computer, was constructed by the Post Office Research Station at Dollis Hill (now BT research), whose research and development later moved from that site to Martlesham, just east of here and the landowners thought this would be a suitable setting to commemorate this achievement. The story of these machines has nothing to do with the names and companies that we associate with computers today. Indeed the originators of the computer are largely unknown, and their achievement little recorded. All the more worth recording is that this first machine accomplished a task perhaps as important as that entrusted to any computer since. The electronic digital computer is one of the greatest legacies the 20th century leaves to the 21st. The History of Computing… The shape of the monument is designed to reflect a fundamental concept in mathematics. This is explained in the frame entitled “The Monument”. You will notice that some of the Stations are blue and some are orange. Blue stations talk about concepts and ideas pertinent to the development of the computer, and orange ones talk about actual machines and the events surrounding them. The monument was designed and funded by a grant making charity. FUNDAMENTAL FEATURES OF COMPUTERS The computer is now so sophisticated that attention is not normally drawn to its fundamental characteristics.

    Computer Oral History Collection, 1969-1973, 1977 Interviewee: Russell Kirsch Interviewer: Richard R. Mertz Attendee: Robert Elbourn Date: October 8, 1970 MERTZ: The following is an interview conducted on the eighth of October 1970 by Dr. Richard Mertz at the National Bureau of Standards with Mr. Russell Kirsch, one of the engineers involved in the design and development of the SEAC computer. Would you like to describe your early background and training and what led you into the field of computers? KIRSCH: Yes. My own interest in computers, as I was just telling you, has evolved fairly widely over the whole spectrum of computer activities ranging from actual soldering of computer hardware to abstract studies of theoretical capabilities of abstract computers. And, as I understand from the preliminary discussion that we've had, you would prefer me to concentrate on the early history, especially that part which is connected with the development of, early developments in computer hardware. Presumably early developments here at the Bureau of Standards that I was most intimately connected with. My own connections with the computer activities started in 1950 when Peter Elias at Harvard gave a seminar on computers, and I was a graduate student there at the time. This was a seminar in which each of the students reported on some activity in the computer field, and of course the computer field was barely in existence at the time. For essentially no particular reason I happened to agree to report on the, what was, I believe, at that time called the NBS Interim Computer which some people up at Harvard believed there was under construction at the Bureau of Standards at the time.

  • 4. System Design of the SEAC and DYSEAC
    4. System Design of the SEAC and DYSEAC A. L. Leiner, W. A. Notz, J. L. Smith, and A. Weinberger 1. INTRODUCTION In the course of developing comprehensive system plans for the SEAC and DYSEAC, certain stand- ard methods and procedures were evolved for producing a large-scale system design. 'Ihese standard procedures, including first the development of system specifications, then the development of func- tional plans, and finally the development of wiring plans, are described in this paper. Some of the problems encountered in formulating the specifications and system plans are also discussed [I] 1. 'he flow of development generally followed in creating such large-scale computers is charted in figure 4: 1. As indicated, two sets of factors (which can be considered as the initial boundary con- ditions of the system-design affect the choice of system features for a machine: first, the set of factors related to theintended use ofthe machine, and second, those related to the type of components or "building blockstt with which the machine is to be constructed. Because these two sets of factors are basically unrelated to each other, they often present contradictory require- ments. For example, a proposed machine feature may appear ideal when evaluated solely in terms of the intended use of the machine but may entail an unacceptable engineering risk when evaluated in terms of component reliability and cost. 'he necessity for effecting compromises and avoiding con- flicts of this kind between the rival claims of operational effectiveness and engineering reliabil- ity and economy strongly influenced the system designs of the SEAC and DYSEAC.
