All about UNI VAC COMPUTER

UNIVAC (UNIVersal Automatic Computer) was one of the first electronic digital computers and was developed by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly in the early 1950s. The UNIVAC was designed to handle a wide range of computing tasks, including scientific calculations, business applications, and military data processing. The first UNIVAC was delivered to the United States Census Bureau in 1951 and was used to tabulate the 1950 US Census results. The machine was huge, measuring over 8 feet tall, 14 feet wide, and 14 feet long. It used vacuum tube technology and could perform 1,000 calculations per second. One of the most significant features of the UNIVAC was its ability to store and access large amounts of data quickly. It had a memory capacity of 1,000 words, which could be expanded to 10,000 words with additional storage units. The UNIVAC also had a magnetic tape unit for storing data and programs.
