First Generation Computers (1946 - 1959)


UNIVAC I. The very first generation of computer is characterized by a really striking feature inside vacuum-tube ENIAC. Until 1950, a number of other computers using these tubes, each computer provides significant advances in computer development. Development include binary arithmetic, random access, as well as the idea of stored programs.

1951 The U.S. Bureau of Cencus in 1951 installed the 1st commercial computer referred to as Universal Automatic Computer - UNIVAC I. UNIVAC I produced by Mauchly and Eckert for that Remington-Rand Corporation

IBM Enters Computer Market
The very first electromechanical computer will be the result of research sponsored by IBM. The effect, Mark I, completed in 1944 by a Harvard University professor, Howard Aiken. Then, IBM's monopoly on processing equipment punched-card data. Pimpinam IBM didn't believe that the pc (UNIVAC I) could replace the punched-card machines, with the they didn't wish to type in the market. UNIVAC I have not had success, IBM created a new decision to produce and go into the computer market.

IBM's first product sold in the market industry is the IBM 701 in 1953. Remarkably, the IBM 650 has been available since the subsequent year that could be the explanation for IBM's large enough gains in the earlier year. To reduce its competitors, IBM 650 appeared in order to upgrade the machine-punched-card machines available. That is because IBM 650 data processing in a very manner similar to the traditional way on punched-card machines.
