An upgraded 1106 was called the UNIVAC 1100/10. In this new naming convention, the final digit represented the number of CPUs or CAUs in the system, so that, for example, a two-processor 1100/10 system was designated an 1100/12. An upgraded 1108 was called the UNIVAC 1100/20. An upgraded 1110 was released as the UNIVAC 1100/40.
This is a list of UNIVAC products. It ends in 1986, the year that Sperry Corporation merged with Burroughs Corporation to form Unisys as a result of a hostile takeover bid [ 1 ] launched by Burrough's CEO W. Michael Blumenthal.
The Remington Rand 409 was a control panel programmed punched card calculator, designed in 1949, and sold in two models: the UNIVAC 60 (1952) and the UNIVAC 120 (1953). The UNIVAC File Computer was first shipped in 1956. It was equipped with between one and ten large drums each holding 180,000 Alphanumeric characters. [27]
IBM 7151 Console Control Unit for 7090. The IBM 7090 is a second-generation transistorized version of the earlier IBM 709 vacuum tube mainframe computer that was designed for "large-scale scientific and technological applications".
The UNIVAC 418 was a transistorized computer made by Sperry Univac. It had 18-bit words and used magnetic-core memory. The name came from its 4-microsecond memory cycle time and 18-bit word. The assembly language for this class of computers was TRIM III [1] and ART418. Over the three different models, more than 392 systems were manufactured.
Control Console of Univac 1830 / CP-823/U Computer. This is from the system in the photo, above. This would be Univac’s first computer to use flatpack monolithic integrated circuits, using a diode-transistor logic (DTL) silicon chip. This technology was simultaneously being developed for use in the Univac 1824 for the missile guidance program.
The UNIVAC 1103 or ERA 1103, a successor to the UNIVAC 1101, [1] is a computer system designed by Engineering Research Associates and built by the Remington Rand corporation in October 1953. It was the first computer for which Seymour Cray was credited with design work.
UNIVAC continued to use the name UNISERVO for later models of tape drive (e.g., UNISERVO II, UNISERVO IIIC, UNISERVO VIII-C) for later computers in their product line. The UNISERVO II could read metal tapes from the UNIVAC I as well as use higher-density PET film base/ferric oxide media tapes that became the industry standard. While UNIVAC was ...
