Remington-Rand Present the Univac UNIVAC is one of the earliest commercial computers and was easily the most famous computer of the 1950s. This film, produced between 1950 and 1952, shows how the UNIVAC computer was used in business, defense and by the census. The film shows several of the important portions of the UNIVAC system at work, including the high-speed printer, the UNISERVO tape drive, the UNITYPER, card readers and the mercury delay line tanks that served as main memory. The programming process is fully discussed and a business problem is demonstrated. These films served a promotional film as well as a way to demystify computers to the average person.

Jean Jennings Bartik - ENIAC Pioneer [Recorded Oct 22, 2008] Born on a farm in Missouri, the sixth of seven children, Jean Jennings Bartik always went in search of adventure. Bartik majored in mathematics at Northwest Missouri State Teachers College (now Northwest Missouri State University). During her college years, WWII broke out, and in 1945, at age 20, Bartik answered the government's call for women math majors to join a project in Philadelphia calculating ballistics firing tables for the artillery developed for the war effort. A new employee of the Army's Ballistics Research Labs, she joined over 80 women calculating ballistics trajectories (differential calculus equations) by hand - her job title: "Computer". Later in 1945, the Army circulated a call for computers for a new job with a secret machine. Bartik jumped at the chance and was hired as one of the original six programmers of ENIAC, the first all-electronic, programmable computer. She joined Frances "Betty" Snyder Holberton, Kathleen McNulty Mauchly Antonelli, Marlyn Wescoff Meltzer, Ruth Lichterman Teitelbaum and Frances Bilas Spence on this unknown journey. With ENIAC's 40 panels still under construction, and its 18,000 vacuum tube technology uncertain, the engineers had no time for programming manuals or classes. Bartik and the other women taught themselves ENIAC's operation from its logical and electrical block diagrams, and then figured out how to program it. They created their own flow charts, programming sheets, wrote the programs and entered them on the ENIAC using a challenging physical interface, which had hundreds of wires and 3,000 switches. It was an unforgettable, wonderful experience. On February 15, 1946, the Army revealed the existence of ENIAC to the public. In a special ceremony, the Army introduced ENIAC and its hardware inventors Dr. John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert. The presentation featured its trajectory ballistics program, operating at a speed thousands of time faster than any prior calculations. The ENIAC women's programming worked perfectly - and conveyed the immense calculating power of ENIAC and its ability to tackle the millennium problems that had previously taken a man 100 years to do. ENIAC calculated in 20 seconds the trajectory of a shell that took 30 seconds to reach its target: literally faster than a speeding bullet! But the Army never introduced the ENIAC women. No one gave them any credit or discussed that day their critical role in this groundbreaking project. Their faces, but not their names, became part of the beautiful press pictures of the ENIAC. For forty years, their roles and their pioneering work were forgotten and their story lost to history. Bartik discusses what it meant to be overlooked, despite unique and pioneering work, and what it means to be discovered again. In conversation with Linda O'Bryon, Bartik also discusses: - Leading the programming team to convert ENIAC to one of the first stored-program machines (and working with Dr. John von Neumann on ENIAC's first instruction set) - Working in "Technical Camelot" at the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation, as programmer of BINAC and logic designer of UNIVAC - Sexism and stereotypes at Remington Rand and her first-hand experience with the abuse of women and the misuse of technology - Friends and pioneers computing history should not forget, including tributes to Betty Holberton, Kay Mauchly Antonelli, the other ENIAC programmers, Dr. John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert - and lastly, Some pieces of advice to live by... Tags: Computer History Museum ENIAC Bartik Fellow Award Eckert Mauchly WWII |

UNIVAC - Then and Now [Recorded 1960] This humorous promotional film for the Remington Rand UNIVAC computer features J. Prespert Eckert and John Mauchly in leading roles. Produced in 1960, the film outlines the earlier history of computing leading to the development and application of the UNIVAC computer. J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, the major figures in the creation of the ENIAC computer, left the University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Engineering at the end of WWII to found their own firm. They had hoped to be the first to exploit the new concept of the electronic stored program computer, but were hampered by a lack of funds and, to some extent, by the bureaucracy surrounding their only major customer, the Census Bureau. They sought other investors but never had enough to properly complete their projects. They eventually sold their business to Remington Rand (later Sperry Rand) who incorporated it as the UNIVAC division of the company. Eckert remained with UNIVAC all his life but Mauchly left after a few years to become a private consultant. Remington Rand's Univac Division produced some of the earliest commercially available machines ahead of more famous firms such as IBM. The large management structure of the company often frustrated their engineers, many of whom left to found other very influential computer firms (e.g. Control Data Corporation). This bureaucracy is thought by many (including their Vice President, J. Presper Eckert) to have eventually limited their ability to take advantage of rapidly changing technology and to lose the lead to other firms such as IBM. In 1955 the Sperry Corporation and Remington Rand merged forming Sperry Rand. Sperry Rand then eventually merged with Burroughs to from Unisys and is still in business.

Exploration of the History of Science and Technology The Franklin Institute offers an electronic presentation of its Case Files, a repository that exists as the documentary record of the Institute's science and technology Awards program. The University of Pennsylvania's Department of History and Sociology of Science hosted a Symposium to discuss the historical, scientific, and educational merit of the Case Files, which date from the 1820s, as a modern day resource for undergraduate, graduate, and professional scholars, as well as K-12 students. The focus of the presentation was on the early history of the computing industry, featuring key individuals including Hollerith, Burroughs, Eckert, Mauchly, Bardeen, Brittain, and Shannon. Tags: |

Eckert: Wir wollen nicht "normalisiert" werden Albert Eckert gründete 1993 die Initiative "Der homosexuellen NS-Opfer gedenken", die sich u.a. für das Denkmal für die homosexuellen Opfer des Nationalsozialismus einsetzten. Er spricht in diesem Video anlässlich der Eröffnung und der Übergabe an die Öffentlichkeit. Von 1989-1995 war er parteiloses Mitglied der Fraktion der Alternativen Liste (später: Bündnis 90/Die Grünen) des Berliner Abgeordnetenhauses und zeitweise dessen Vizepräsident. Das Denkmal für die im Nationalsozialismus verfolgten Homosexuellen ist eine Gedenkstätte am Berliner Tiergarten, die am 27. Mai 2008 eingeweiht wurde. Das von dem dänisch-norwegischen Künstlerduo Michael Elmgreen und Ingar Dragset entworfene Denkmal ist ein 3,60 m hoher und 1,90 m breiter Steinquader, in dem ein Fenster eingelassen ist, durch das ein kurzer Film mit zwei sich küssenden Männern zu sehen ist. Die Errichtung des Denkmals wurde im Zuge der Diskussion über die Gestaltung des Denkmals für die ermordeten Juden Europas im Jahr 2003 vom Deutschen Bundestag beschlossen. Am 28. August 2006 führte der LSVD zu diesem Thema in Berlin eine Diskussionsveranstaltung mit den Künstlern durch. Kurz vor der Veranstaltung protestierte EMMA mit einem Aufruf dagegen, „dass das geplante Homo-Denkmal in Berlin ausschließlich männliche Homosexuelle zeigt" und fordert, „dass auch die weiblichen Homosexuellen angemessen berücksichtigt werden." Gegen die „Verzerrung der Vergangenheit für gegenwärtige Zwecke -- und mag sie noch so gut gemeint sein --" wandten sich die Leiter der KZ-Gedenkstätten in einer Erklärung vom 19. Mai 2007.
