| | UNIVAC 1103 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The UNIVAC 1103 or ERA 1103, a successor to the UNIVAC 1101, was a computer system designed by Engineering Research Associates and built by the Remington Rand corporation in October, 1953. | | | The successor machine was the UNIVAC 1103A or Univac Scientific, which improved upon the design by replacing the unreliable Williams tube memory with magnetic core memory, adding hardware floating point instructions, and a hardware interrupt feature. | | | The UNIVAC 1103 had 1024 words of 36 bit Williams tube memory (first commercial computer to use random access memory). |

| | UNIVAC 1103 and 1105: The 1103 was the first "scientific" computer, and its users established USE as an organization to share software. | | | Scientific computers, such as the UNIVAC 1103A and 1105 operated in pure binary, with instructions for both fixed and floating-point arithmetic, but none for decimal. | | | UNIVAC's edge over IBM in easy timesharing access also facilitated program conversions: program card decks could be read into disk files and changed with the ED processor, which seemed very powerful at the time. |

| | Based on his experience, "the 1103 was clearly a superior machine [to the IBM 701] in every respect." The gift of computer time was renewed for the 1956-57 year. | | | Marvin Stein, who had worked on the 1103 at Convair, moved to Minnesota to become an assistant professor of mathematics and oversee the use of the computer time. | | | They wanted to show that it had capabilities which were different from those of Philadelphia's UNIVAC I. Their presentation compared the 1103 with IBM's first computer, the 701, which had been announced in May of that year. |

| | The Secret Guide to Computers: our past |
| | The first computer to be mass-produced was the UNIVAC I, in 1951. | | | To program the UNIVAC I, you had to put the program onto magnetic tape (by using a non-computerized machine), feed that tape to the computer, and wait for the computer to vomit another magnetic tape, which you had to run through another machine to find out what the tape said. | | | UNIVAC’s manufacturer and IBM started playing around with a different kind of memory, called the Williams tube, which was faster (10 to 50 microseconds); but since it was less reliable, it didn’t sell well. |
