Today in Tech


On this day in 1944 the IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator or ASCC was formally presented to Harvard University by then IBM president Thomas J. Watson Sr. The ASCC was a general purpose electromechanical computer that was devised by American physicist Howard Aiken and built by IBM. One of the earliest digital computers, it was a curious mix of punch card technology and simple electronics, and was used in the war effort during the latter part of World War II. Upon its transfer into Harvard, the ASCC was renamed the Harvard Mark I. Find out more about this supercomputer here.
