UNIVAC serves as the catch-all name for the American manufacturers of the lines of mainframe computers by that name, which through mergers and acquisitions underwent numerous name changes.
In the 1960s, UNIVAC was one of the eight major computer companies in an industry then referred to as "Snow White and the seven dwarfs"—IBM, the largest, being Snow White and the others being the dwarfs: Burroughs, NCR, Control Data Corporation, General Electric, RCA and Honeywell.
The UNIVAC 1106 was the third member of Sperry Univac's UNIVAC 1100 series of computers, introduced in December 1969 and was absolutely identical to the UNIVAC 1108 in instruction set.

UNIVAC was first intended for the Bureau of the Census, which paid for much of the development, and then was put in production.
Unlike the UNIVAC I and UNIVAC II, however, it was a binary machine as well as maintaining support for all UNIVAC I and UNIVAC II decimal and alphanumeric data formats for backward compatibility.
The UNIVAC 1100/2200 series is a series of compatible 36-bit transistorized computer systems initially made by Sperry Rand.

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.
James Rand came in late in the presentation and apparently was taken with the idea that the 1103 was a worthy rival to the 701.
A team led by Frank Mullaney and Noel Stone developed the 1104 as a 30-bit variation of the 1103 for Westinghouse Electric Corporation, which was a subcontractor to Boeing on the BOMARC missile program.

At that time, there was a File Computer section of which I was a part, a scientific section for the maintenance of the 1100 series computers, a commercial section for the maintenance of the Univac line of computers, and a spares section that supported all of the other sections.
From June to October 1959 I was responsible for the maintenance of the two USQ-17 systems, the on-site training of Univac and Navy maintenance personnel, extended tests of Univac and other contractor equipment, interface tests of Univac equipment with other contractors and customer equipment.
In May I feel very fortunate having worked for many different engineers who were a pleasure to work for and that I lived at a time in history when the technical world was changing at a fast rate.
