4. Charles Babbage is considered to be the father of modern digital comput
ers. He designed “Difference Engine” in 1822. Also designed a fully automa
tic analytical engine in 1842 for performing basic arithmetic functions.
1 The Mark I Computer (1937 – 44)
2 The Atanasoff-Berry Computer (1939 – 42)
3 The ENIAC (1937 – 44)
4 The EDVAC (1946 – 52)
5 The EDSAC (1947 – 49)
6 Manchester Mark I (1948)
7 The UNIVAC I (1951)
5. The IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator (ASCC), called Mark I by Harvard U
niversity's staff, was a general purpose electromechanical computerthat was used in t
he war effort during the last part of World War II.
6. The Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC) Being completed by 1942, the Atanasoff-Berry
Computer (ABC) was the first electronic computer. It was designed and built by John
Vincent Atanasoff and his assistant, Clifford E. Berry. ... They worked on the compute
r from 1939 until 1942 when it was abandoned due to WWII.
7. ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer) was the world's fir
st general-purpose computer. ENIAC was designed and built for the Unite
d States Army to calculate artillery firing tables.
8. The EDVAC
EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer) was one of the
earliest electronic computers. Unlike its predecessor the ENIAC, it was bin
ary rather than decimal, and was a stored-program computer. ENIAC inven
tors John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert proposed the EDVAC's constructio
n in August 1944.
9. The EDSAC
EDSAC. The Electronic delay storage automatic calculator (EDSAC) was an early B
ritish computer. Inspired by John von Neumann's seminal First Draft of a Report o
n the EDVAC, the machine was constructed by Maurice Wilkes and his team at the
University of Cambridge Mathematical Laboratory in England.
10. Mark I
The Manchester Mark 1 was one of the earliest program computers, develop
ed at the Victoria University of Manchester from the Manchester Baby (opera
tional in June 1948). It was also called the Manchester Automatic Digital Ma
chine, or MADM. Work began in August 1948, and the first version was operat
ional by April 1949; a program written to search for Mersenne primes ran err
or-free for nine hours on the night of 16/17 June 1949.
11. The UNIVAC I (UNIVersal Automatic Computer I) was the first commercial com
puter produced in the United States. It was designed principally by J. Presper
Eckert and John Mauchly, the inventors of the ENIAC.
