 ENIAC - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
The freeze on design in 1943 meant that the computer had a number of shortcomings which were not solved, notably the inability to store a program.
But the ideas generated from the work and the impact it had on people such as John von Neumann were profoundly influential in the development of later computers, initially EDVAC, EDSAC and SEAC.
A number of improvements were also made to ENIAC from 1948, including a primitive read-only stored programming mechanism [1] using the Function Tables as program ROM, an idea proposed by John von Neumann.
