John William Mauchly Mauchly worked with John Eckert to build the ENIAC and UNIVAC computers. Mauchly got his doctorate in physics before he took a defense electronics course from Eckert in 1941 at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering. Mauchly had an idea to build a computer that was better than the very limited models available at the time. He and Eckert became good friends. They went on to work together to build the ENIAC, which was the first general-purpose electronic digital computer. The two formed their own company and developed the first computer produced for sale in the United States, the UNIVAC.

8. The History Of Computers: John W. Mauchly John W. Mauchly. Mauchly was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on August 30,1907. He was born into a scientific family his father, SJ Mauchly http://www2.fht-esslingen.de/studentisches/Computer_Geschichte/grp4/mauchly.html

John W. Mauchly Mauchly was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on August 30, 1907. He was born into a scientific family: his father, S. J. Mauchly, had a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Cincinnati and became head of the Terrestrial Electricity and Magnetism section at the Carnegie Institution in Washington, D.C. As a graduate student Mauchly had to struggle with, as he put it later, "little calculating machines." The machines were slightly advanced over the common hand-cranked desktop adding devices. Some of them had small electric motors inside, so that instead of cranking the calculator like a slot machine, all Mauchly had to do was enter the numbers and press a button, and the calculator whirred and clicked and eventually spat out the answer. An addition might take ten seconds. That was fast for the early 1930's but not fast enough for Mauchly. He wanted a calculator that would give him answers as fast as he could push the buttons. So around 1936, Mauchly began thinking of building his own calculating machines. Not inadequate mechanical devices like those currently in use but electronic devices based on the vacuum tubes that researchers in physics were using to count particles. When he joined the faculty at the Moore School as an assitant professor he hoped to interest some of the professors with his ideas of the digital computer, but they were buried in the war effort. There was, however, one person who was not only prepared to listen to Mauchly's ideas, but was himself very interested in the whole idea of building an electronic computer. This was J. Presper Eckert. It was shortly after Eckert's graduation form the Moore School that he and Mauchly became acquainted.

John Mauchly Deelde met John Atanasoff de interesse voor het gebruik van electronica om een automatische calculator te maken. In die context bezocht hij in juni 1941 de werkplaats van John Atanasoff . De gevolgen van dit bezoek waren niet te voorzien ... In de zomer van 1941 werd hij " leerling " in het ESMWT -programma en leerde zo Presper Eckert kennen. Samen lagen ze aan de basis van het ENIAC-project dat hen echter weinig roem bracht. Onenigheid over de "First Draft" dreef hen van hun onderzoeksmedewerkers weg en na een discussie met de Moore School over het intellectuele eigendom van de ENIAC vertrokken Eckert en Mauchly om The Eckert-Mauchly Corporation op te richten.

John W. Mauchly and the Development of the ENIAC Computer An Exhibition in the Department of Special Collections Van Pelt Library, University of Pennsylvania by Asaf Goldschmidt and Atsushi Akera Department of History and Sociology of Science University of Pennsylvania Introduction The year 1996 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the ENIAC computer, the first large-scale general-purpose electronic computer. Built at the University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Electrical Engineering, ENIAC is an acronym for "Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer," but its birth lay in World War II as a classified military project known only as Project PX. The ENIAC is important historically, because it laid the foundations for the modern electronic computing industry. More than any other machine, the ENIAC demonstrated that high-speed digital computing was possible using the then-available vacuum tube technology. General View of the ENIAC, 1946. Photograph of John W. Mauchly, ca. 1940-50. We attempt in this exhibition Recommended texts, currently in print, to learn more about ENIAC and the development of the personal computer:

Later, he went on to develop a method for measuring small magnetic fields to be used in detecting marine mines. He then went on to work on the electronics of radar and target locating and following equipment; these devices played a decisive part in weaponry, and their development and construction was considered to be of the very highest priority.

John W. Mauchly and the Development of the ENIAC Computer Out On Their Own, 1946-1951 As if the other controversies Mauchly and Eckert ultimately formed the Electronic Controls Company in downtown Philadelphia. Eckert assumed the task of designing a new computer system, more or less along the lines laid out in von Neumann's report. Mauchly, meanwhile, took on the more general task of identifying the uses of electronic computers. This duty was important, because as a private venture the Electronic Controls Company had to sell its machines if it were to survive. Photograph of quarters of the Electronic Control Company, 1949.

(click to expand to 55k) The company's first client was the U.S. Census Bureau. Mauchly recognized that the decennial census was but four years away and reasoned that he could sell a computer to the Census Bureau as a way of reducing its costs for tabulating its immense volume of data. As it turns out, the Census was attracted more to the speed rather than the economies afforded by the proposed new computer. Increasingly, manufacturers and government policy makers were seeking timely information about the national economy. The Census Bureau had expanded its operations to collect relevant data, but its processing capabilities were more limited, particularly when it involved some of the newer statistical sampling techniques.
