   John William Mauchly (19071980) Mauchly worked with John Eckert to buildthe ENIAC and UNIVAC computers. More about John William Mauchly.

   Extractions: Mauchly worked with John Eckert to build the ENIAC and UNIVAC computers. Mauchly got his doctorate in physics before he took a defense electronics course from Eckert in 1941 at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering. Mauchly had an idea to build a computer that was better than the very limited models available at the time. He and Eckert became good friends. They went on to work together to build the ENIAC, which was the first general-purpose electronic digital computer. The two formed their own company and developed the first computer produced for sale in the United States, the UNIVAC.

   John William Mauchly. Born 30 Aug 1907 in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Died 8 Jan 1980in Ambler, Pennsylvania, USA. John Mauchly grew up in Chevy Chase, Maryland.

   Extractions: John Mauchly grew up in Chevy Chase, Maryland. He went to school in Washington DC where his father was employed as a physicist in the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism at the Carnegie Institute. In 1925 John was awarded a scholarship by the State of Maryland to allow him to attend Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. He began studying engineering at Johns Hopkins but his interests changed in the course of his studies towards pure science and his first degree was in physics. Mauchly continued studying physics after taking his first degree and he was awarded his doctorate in 1932. He then taught physics at a number of different colleges and spent some time at the Carnegie Institution in Washington DC undertaking research on analysing the weather. He soon realised that to make weather forecasts it was necessary to reduce large amounts of data very quickly, and he began to look for mechanical help in making such computations. By 1940 Mauchly was teaching physics at Ursinus College near Philadelphia. While there he became interested in developing electronic computers which combined his interests in physics and engineering. It may seem strange today that someone with an interest in engineering would be drawn towards building computers but at this time a computer was a huge mechanical construction. Also Mauchly's interests were in electrical engineering and he looked for ways to develop electrical circuits for computation.

16. The History Of Computers: John W. Mauchly
    John W. Mauchly. Mauchly was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on August 30,1907. He was born into a scientific family his father, SJ Mauchly  
    http://www2.fht-esslingen.de/studentisches/Computer_Geschichte/grp4/mauchly.html
    
    Extractions: John W. Mauchly Mauchly was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on August 30, 1907. He was born into a scientific family: his father, S. J. Mauchly, had a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Cincinnati and became head of the Terrestrial Electricity and Magnetism section at the Carnegie Institution in Washington, D.C. As a graduate student Mauchly had to struggle with, as he put it later, "little calculating machines." The machines were slightly advanced over the common hand-cranked desktop adding devices. Some of them had small electric motors inside, so that instead of cranking the calculator like a slot machine, all Mauchly had to do was enter the numbers and press a button, and the calculator whirred and clicked and eventually spat out the answer. An addition might take ten seconds. That was fast for the early 1930's but not fast enough for Mauchly. He wanted a calculator that would give him answers as fast as he could push the buttons. So around 1936, Mauchly began thinking of building his own calculating machines. Not inadequate mechanical devices like those currently in use but electronic devices based on the vacuum tubes that researchers in physics were using to count particles. When he joined the faculty at the Moore School as an assitant professor he hoped to interest some of the professors with his ideas of the digital computer, but they were buried in the war effort. There was, however, one person who was not only prepared to listen to Mauchly's ideas, but was himself very interested in the whole idea of building an electronic computer. This was J. Presper Eckert. It was shortly after Eckert's graduation form the Moore School that he and Mauchly became acquainted.

    Extractions: John Mauchly Age:73 Dates:(1907-1980) What: John Mauchly was very smart started his interest in physics in 1926 at John Hopkins University and in 1932 he got his doctorate degree. After working for nine years, he took an engineering course at Moore School and then taught the class. He had ideas for a faster and better computer and so he tried to tell other professors and finally some one was interested. Where: It happened in all these states in between (1907-1980) Johnny made his part in history because he helped make a computer. By: Joseph spafford

    Extractions: Mauchly and Presper Eckert led a team to construct the computer, with Mauchly developing the mathematical theory. Construction was not complete until after the war, too late to complete the original purpose of calculating firing tables for artillery. Instead, test runs in 1945 involved millions of discrete calculations for top-secret thermonuclear chain reactions for the hydrogen bomb. Born in Cincinnati, Mauchly attended Johns Hopkins University, receiving a Ph.D. in physics in 1932. Until 1941, he taught physics at Ursinus College. He then went to the Moore School of Electrical Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1946, Mauchly and Eckert left the Moore School to begin the Eckert Mauchly Computer Corporation. Together, they marketed UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer), the first commercial computer. In 1959, Mauchly formed the consulting firm of Mauchly Associates.
