MILTTARY CURRICULUM MATERIALS The military-developed curriculum materials in this course package were selected by the National Center for Researchin Vocational Education Military Curriculum Project for dissem- ination to the six regional Curriculum Coordination Centers and other instructional materials agencies.The purpose of disseminating these courses was to make curriculum materials developed by the military more accessible to vocational educators in the civilian setting. The course materials were acquired, evaluated by project staff and practitioners in the field, and prepared for dissemination. Materials which were specific to the military were deleted, copyrighted materials wereeither omitted or appro- val for their use was obtained. These course packages contain curriculum resource materials which can be adapted to support vocational instruction and curriculum development.

  • 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.

  • A Historical Perspective of the Development of British Computer Manufacturers with Particular Reference to Staffordshire
    A historical perspective of the development of British computer manufacturers with particular reference to Staffordshire John Wilcock School of Computing, Staffordshire University Abstract Beginning in the early years of the 20th Century, the report summarises the activities within the English Electric and ICT groups of computer manufacturers, and their constituent groups and successor companies, culminating with the formation of ICL and its successors STC-ICL and Fujitsu-ICL. Particular reference is made to developments within the county of Staffordshire, and to the influence which these companies have had on the teaching of computing at Staffordshire University and its predecessors. 1. After the second world war In Britain several computer research teams were formed in the late 1940s, which concentrated on computer storage techniques. At the University of Manchester, Williams and Kilburn developed the “Williams Tube Store”, which stored binary numbers as electrostatic charges on the inside face of a cathode ray tube. The Manchester University Mark I, Mark II (Mercury 1954) and Atlas (1960) computers were all built and marketed by Ferranti at West Gorton. At Birkbeck College, University of London, an early form of magnetic storage, the “Birkbeck Drum” was constructed. The pedigree of the computers constructed in Staffordshire begins with the story of the EDSAC first generation machine. At the University of Cambridge binary pulses were stored by ultrasound in 2m long columns of mercury, known as tanks, each tank storing 16 words of 35 bits, taking typically 32ms to circulate. Programmers needed to know not only where their data were stored, but when they were available at the top of the delay lines.

  • Resurrection
    Issue Number 10 Summer 1994 Computer Conservation Society Aims and objectives The Computer Conservation Society (CCS) is a co-operative venture between the British Computer Society and the Science Museum of London. The CCS was constituted in September 1989 as a Specialist Group of the British Computer Society (BCS). It thus is covered by the Royal Charter and charitable status of the BCS. The aims of the CCS are to o Promote the conservation of historic computers o Develop awareness of the importance of historic computers o Encourage research on historic computers Membership is open to anyone interested in computer conservation and the history of computing. The CCS is funded and supported by a grant from the BCS, fees from corporate membership, donations, and by the free use of Science Museum facilities. Membership is free but some charges may be made for publications and attendance at seminars and conferences. There are a number of active Working Parties on specific computer restorations and early computer technologies and software. Younger people are especially encouraged to take part in order to achieve skills transfer. The corporate members who are supporting the Society are Bull HN Information Systems, Digital Equipment, ICL, Unisys and Vaughan Systems.

  • The Women of ENIAC
    The Women of ENIAC W. BARKLEY FRITZ A group of young women college graduates involved with the EFJIAC are identified. As a result of their education, intelligence, as well as their being at the right place and at the right time, these young women were able to per- form important computer work. Many learned to use effectively “the machine that changed the world to assist in solving some of the important scientific problems of the time. Ten of them report on their background and experi- ences. It is now appropriate that these women be given recognition for what they did as ‘pioneers” of the Age of Computing. introduction any young women college graduates were involved in ties of some 50 years ago, you will note some minor inconsiskn- NI[ various ways with ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integra- cies, which arc to be expected.

  • Company Histories
    British companies delivering digital computers in the period 1950 – 1965. Elliott Brothers (London) Ltd. and Elliott-Automation. The Elliott Instrument Company was founded in 1804. By the 1870s, telegraph equipment and electrical equipment were added to the company’s products. Naval instrumentation became an area of increasing importance from about 1900, the company working with the Admiralty to develop Fire Control (ie gunnery control) electro-mechanical analogue computers. Elliott Brothers (London) Ltd. provided fire-control equipment to the Royal Navy from 1908 until shortly after the end of the Second World War. By 1946 the company’s main factory at Lewisham in south London had become a technological backwater. Although still skilled in manufacturing electro-mechanical equipment and precision electrical instrumentation, it had been bypassed by the huge war- time flow of government contracts for radar and allied electronic equipment. Compared with firms such as Ferranti Ltd., there was practically no electronic activity at Elliott’s Lewisham factory. The company actually traded at a loss between 1946 and 1951. Somewhat surprisingly, fresh discussions between the Admiralty and Elliott Brothers (London) Ltd. started in 1946, with the objective of persuading the company to host a new research team whose prime objective was to work on an advanced digital electronic Fire Control system and target-tracking radar. The Admiralty leased to the company a redundant factory at Borehamwood in Hertfordshire. This became known as Elliott’s Borehamwood Research Laboratory. It was at Borehamwood that a team of specially- recruited young scientists and engineers designed and built several secret digital computers for various classified projects.
