John V. Atanosoff, 1903 ( bio Media Museum Quality Geclée Prints Purchase Size(s) Approx. 16" x 20" Unframed Details Limited Edition of 25 Unframed Framed add $225 Bio The American physicist was the the inventor of the basic digital techniques used in the first electronic digital computer, ENIAC. After earning his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in 1930, John taught at Iowa State College. While at Iowa, he built a crude, vacuum-tube computing device and showed it to interested persons, including William Mauchly. John was unable to market the device, however, and Mauchly along with John Eckert developed the ENIAC in the 1940's. ENIAC was the first electronic digital computer. It was used from 1946 to 1955. In 1971, the patentability of ENIAC's basic digital concepts was challenged. The Eckert-Mauchly patent was declared invalid in 1973, earning John V. Atanasoff his rightful place the history of the computer and information age.

John Atanasoff Who was John Atanasoff? The prototype ... An appeal to all THE PROTOTYPE In the late 1930s, John Atanasoff was still trying to develop ways to facilitate the process of calculating solutions to the extended systems of linear algebraic equations that were applicable to his research work. He became convinced that the digital approach offered considerable advantages over the slower and less accurate analog machines. In December of 1939, working with his graduate student Clifford Berry, John Atanasoff developed and built the prototype of the first electronic digital computer, which would be fully completed in 1942. This prototype of the first computer included four significant and entirely novel operating principles in its operation: The binary system, regenerative data storage, logic circuits as elements of a program, and electronic elements as data carrying media. "After the prototype had started working, we were convinced we could build a computer capable of calculating whatever we would like to", wrote Atanasoff. Having demonstrated the viability of the four major principles, the prototype unequivocally opened the way for all present day computers. In their history of the ENIAC computer, Alice R. Burks and Arthur W. Burks summarize the Atanasoff achievement as follows:

Contribute They both sprang from the mind of John Mauchly that's what. A while ago, I received a documentary on inventor John Mauchly. Who is John Mauchly you might ask? Well, according to the documentary MAUCHLY: The Computer and the Skateboard (© 2000 blastoff media), this man is truly one of the fathers of computing. Overall I liked this film and found it quite interesting. There was one editing choice that really nagged me though. The fact that there are a lot of the "audio fade" cuts between different interviewees, where someone voice would be trailing off with an unfinished sentence fading away. I didn't really like that, I found it distracting and thought that "clean audio cuts" would have been better for the film. All the editing was done on a circa 1999 home Macintosh, so I guess I gotta cut editor/director Paul David some slack. But damn, I really like the subject matter. And for the most part, the filmmakers let the information "sell itself" through the interviewees. They also shied away from other possible distractions like background music or cheesy narration. The somewhat "over the top" WWII era "news reel" near the beginning of the film provides a nice contrast to the rest of the style of the documentary, which is much more subdued and relaxed.

Ramakrishna (Bob) Rau of HP Labs for his pioneering contributions to instruction-level parallel processors and compilers that use the VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) style of architecture. Rau, who manages HP Labs' Compiler and Architecture Research (CAR) Program, developed a prototype of an automated design tool for custom processors that produces customized chips more quickly and less expensively than those designed manually. The Eckert-Mauchly Award, which carries a $5000 prize, will be presented at the International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA), May 25-29, 2002. "Bob Rau has been instrumental in developing the core architectural concept known as EPIC (Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing), which is the basis of today's most commonly-used processors," said John R. White, executive director and CEO of ACM. "He has made a significant contribution to maintaining the spectacular rate of increase in microprocessor performance without unacceptable hardware complexity."

ENIAC: The Genesis of the Electronic Computer This article brought to you by: Dr. Dale Rummer WHO INVENTED THE ELECTRONIC DIGITAL COMPUTER? If you believe the story in many digital computer books, the answer is John von Neumann, because of references to the "von Neuman architecture." The von Neumann architecture refers to a digital system that executes a series of instructions extracted from a digital memory. This architecture describes essentially all digital computers from the beginning of time to the present. The book by Scott McCartney, Thus the definitive answer to the question above is: John Mauchly and Presper Eckert invented the first electronic digital computer. WHAT WAS THE FIRST COMPANY IN THE ELECTRONIC DIGITAL COMPUTER BUSINESS? Before the ENIAC was completed, in January 1944, Eckert and Mauchly were planning for the next electronic digital computer. The Army signed a contract in late 1945 for initial work on the design of the Electronic Discrete Variable Calculator, the EDVAC. The University of Pennsylvania had agreed at the beginning of the ENIAC project that Eckert and Mauchly owned any and all patent rights to the ENIAC. After the ENIAC project was successful however, they had second thoughts and strongly refused to grant Eckert and Mauchly the patent rights on the EDVAC.

94. Greatest Achievements - 8. Computers Independently, building on the work of ENIAC engineers john Eckert and johnMauchly, john von Neumann's EDVAC report came to the same conclusion. http://www.greatachievements.org/greatachievements/ga_8_2.html

In the first half of the 20th century, a steady stream of technical innovation transformed people's lives the automobile, the airplane, farm machinery, the washing machine. Drudgery and limitations were fast giving way to freedom and possibilities. In many ways, new technologies were no longer a surprise. Then came a new machine - the computer - which astonished the world and promised to remove other forms of drudgery from life, such as tedious calculations or assembly line tasks. The computer would soon evolve from an elaborate calculator to a complex system of enormous capability. The computer's impact would prove to be immense, a fact recognized by the magazine Time in 1982, when it dubbed the computer "Man of the Year." Before the century was over, the computer had become an integral part of every major industry, and had begun to open new worlds through the Internet. The history of the computer has been one of dazzling feats. Early groundwork included Blaise Pascal's adding machines (1600s); Marie Jacquard's weaving looms (1801); Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine (1840s); and Herman Hollerith's punch-card program (1880s). In 1943, the British logic calculator, Colossus, cracked complex Nazi codes in hours, and turned the tide in favor of the Allies. In 1946, America's ENIAC performed 5000 additions and subtractions per second. In the 1980s supercomputers performed 10 trillion calculations per second - what would take 10 million years on a handheld calculator. Among the more dazzling feats were those that enabled these machines to store information and read programs. The first hurdle in this transformation was accepting the concept of a universal machine, as outlined in a 1945 paper by Alan Turing. He laid out the principles for a machine that could store programs as well as data, and quickly switch to perform tasks as diverse as arithmetic, data processing, and chess playing. Independently, building on the work of ENIAC engineers John Eckert and John Mauchly, John von Neumann's EDVAC report came to the same conclusion.

Background This Documentary tells the fascinating story of Kay McNulty Mauchly Antonelli and her part in one of the world's most important inventions this century - the electronic computer. That an emigrant Irishwoman was one of the world's first computer programers is all the more remarkable when one realises that today Ireland is the largest software producer in the world outside of the United States and that computer technology is responsible for the upsurge in the Irish economy and the reversal of emigration from Ireland. Kay McNulty Mauchly Antonelli Kay McNulty Mauchly Antonelli was born Kathleen McNulty on 12 February, 1921 in the Creeslough Gaeltacht of County Donegal during the Irish War of Independence. On the night she was born, her father, James, who was an Irish Republican Army Training Officer, was arrested and imprisoned in Derry Gaol for two years. On his release the family emigrated to the United States and settled in Pennslyvannia where James McNulty established a successful stone masonry business. Kay McNulty today Kay graduated from Chestnut Hill College in 1942, one of only three mathematics majors in a class of 92 women.
