Howard Aiken
Mark 1 was the second and final computer Tabellierzeitalters. In second place, he was not only historically but also in performance. The first computer from the zero generation had a German engineer in the early war years, without funding built in Berlin by Konrad Zuse. His electro-mechanical Z3 machine with internal program storage required for a multiplication of three seconds. But this world first came barely the size German borders. Even today, ignored by many American authors, the performance of the German perfect. Also, the Brock House knew nothing of long-term Zuse. In the 1957 edition of his name and his performance is missing. The more
caused a furore in the United States threatened MARK I. However, the announcement in 1944, excluding Watsons and IBM to take place, who had made the project more than a million dollars at all possible. Was taken to the core of IBM's senior, when he saw that the ambitious Creator of MARK I, Harvard Professor Howard H. Aiken, to surpass him of vanity was looking for. For six years, IBM engineers had drawn up the plans of math professor that several tons calculator. It was 15.5 meters long. 850 km wire. 175 000 1210 blades and ball bearings were hidden behind a stainless steel, tin and glass. Overall, there were 765 000 individual elements that kept the new logic in motion. Performance against Zuse's work was magic, however much to be desired: a multiplication employed the giant baby six seconds. Manpower and money, the investment of IBM ignored the generous computer genius "aikenen" Grace, the mathematician Aiken. In a press conference a day before the inauguration offuiziellen in Cambridge / Mass. Exulted Aiken to up his university and "his" computer. Too high for Watson, who sat pale with anger all the stops to get his company and "his" computer in the right Lich move back. For these Cambridge Memories of an ambivalent attitude resulted vanity Watson with scientists and their products.
Conclusion: The triumvirate Aiken, Watson, IBM set to "MARK I" up the rear behind the relay time. Wiegert Watson is narrow-minded from now on, the lights glimmer slowly infecting the electronic age.
