Happy ENIAC Day! Join us for a celebration of the 75th anniversary of the launch of the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer.
Yes, we know that things actually kicked off in 1945 rather than 15 February 1946, but today s the day when, 75 years ago, the machine was launched at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2011, Philadelphia City Council declared 15 February as ENIAC Day and we re not about to argue the point for fear of a battering with delicious cheesesteak sandwiches.
While boffins in Blighty might point to the super-secret Colossus as predating ENIAC, the launch of this general-purpose computer was very much a public affair. Intended as an improvement on the wheel-and-disc-based differential analysers of the time, work on the electronic machine began in secret in 1943.
