    Extractions: The Life of a Computer Pioneer by Gregory W. Welch On August 14, 1944, Thomas J. Watson, president of the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), publicly presented Harvard University with the IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator (ASCC). Top brass from IBM, Harvard, and the US. Navy addressed the assembled press corps. Six-page, glossy brochures describing the machine and its development were distributed. It was a grand occasion. The ASCC represented a tremendous advance for science and industry. It was the result of a long, cooperative effort between IBM and Harvard, and was already proving its worth: the Navy was using the calculator in connection with World War II. The public announcement of this engineering feat heralded what is now termed the "Information Age." Press reports sparked the public's imagination to consider a world full of automatic machines performing tasks formerly delegated to man. Despite the many people involved with and affected by the ceremony, the moment belonged, more than to anyone else, to one man. The Harvard Mark I, as the machine was commonly known, was the brainchild of 44-year-old Harvard physicist, Howard Hathaway Aiken. Aiken had given birth to the project eight years before while working on his Harvard Ph.D. thesis. He and many of his colleagues were confounded by mathematical problems which required an immense amount of calculations. The idea of a machine which would perform vast calculations automatically was appealing to them. Consequently Aiken embarked on the design of such a machine. Although the ASCC had been operating around-the-clock for several months for the Navy in connection with the war effort, the August 14th ceremony officially recognized the fruition of his effort.

It is 51 feet long, weighs 5 tons, and incorporates 750,000 parts, including 72 accumulators and 60 sets of rotary switches, each of which can be used as a constant register, plus card readers, a card punch, paper tape readers, and typewriters. Sequencing is controlled by a long rotating shaft. An addition takes 1/3 second, and a multiplication, 1 second. The dial switches are at the left, followed by the bays of storage counters. Partially obscured by the observers are the multiplying-dividing unit and the counters used in computing logarithmic and trigonometric functions.

    Extractions: Died:14 March 1973 in St. Louis, Missouri, USA In 1937, electrical engineer and physicist, Howard H. Aiken of Harvard University conceived the idea of wiring together the components of a unit record system and controlling them by a roll of paper punched tape. While he completed his doctorate at Harvard, Aiken continued the computer's development with the assistance of IBM and its engineers until 1944. That year he unveiled the Harvard Mark I. It was not an electronic computer, but an elctro-mechanical computer in which mechanical registers were used to store numbers. Grace Hopper worked with Aiken from 1944 on the Mark I computer which was used by the US navy for gunnery and ballistics calculations. Aiken completed the Mark II, a completely electronic computer, in 1947. He published articles on electronics and switching theory. References:

    Extractions: Howard Hathaway Aiken , the son of Daniel and Margaret Emily (Mierisch) Aiken, was born at the turn of the century, on 8 March 1900, in Hoboken, New Jersey. The boy was reared, however, in Indianapolis Indiana, where he attended the Arsenal Technical High School. After his graduation in 1919, Aiken matriculated at the University of Wisconsin, where he majored and did outside work in electrical engineering. Aiken received his B.S. in electrical engineering from Wisconsin in 1923, and went to Harvard for post-graduate studies. He received his M.A. (1937) and Ph.D. (1939) degrees in physics from Harvard, where he remained as a faculty instructor first, and as an associate professor later. As early as 1936, Aiken had dreamed of building a large-scale calculator, but found it difficult to interest many other people in the project. He learned, in reading

In his lifetime, he would hold many titles: electrical engineer, physicist, Harvard University Professor, computer trainer, founder and director of the Harvard Computation Laboratory and Aiken Industries, and inventor. He is best know for his invention of the first automatic computer also known as a programmable mechanical computer. Invented in 1937, International Business Machines (IBM) would later build his discovery between 1938 and 1944. Howard would live on to design three more computers,, the last of which he created in 1952. Howard Aiken died in 1973. Bibliography: Horner, Rick. (1994). Howard Aiken.

    Extractions: SEARCH THE GAZETTE By Cassie Ferguson Gazette Staff The desire for answers to the questions raised by his doctoral thesis in physics led Howard Aiken to the conclusion that he would have to build a calculating machine unlike anything ever seen before at Harvard a computer. Aiken needed numbers for his theory of space-charge conduction in vacuum tubes, but the problems were beyond the capability of desktop calculators of the day. Frustrated by his dilemma, in 1937 he wrote a proposal for a giant calculating machine, one that could represent negative and positive numbers, do standard arithmetic, and carry out more than one operation in a sequence. "The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably as old as the science of arithmetic itself," he wrote, although he would later joke that the computer was "only a lazy man's idea." A year earlier, in 1936, Aiken had proposed his idea to the Physics Department, which did not see the same need for a computing machine and was reluctant to give up space for one in its building. He was told by the chairman, Frederick Saunders, that a lab technician, Carmelo Lanza, had told him about a similar contraption already stored up in the Science Center attic.
