	UNIVAC - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The UNIVAC division of Remington Rand was renamed the Univac division of Sperry Rand.
		The UNIVAC 1105 was the successor to the 1103A, and was introduced in 1958.
		The 1107 was the first 36-bit, word-oriented machine with an architecture close to that which came to be known as that of the "1100 Series." It ran the EXEC II operating system, a batch-oriented second-generation operating system, typical of the early to mid-1960s.

	The Case 1107
		The Case 1107 was immortalised by being included by Case alumnus Donald Knuth in the calculation of the decimal representation of the MIX 1009 computer in
		The high speed printer was derived directly from a printer used on the UNIVAC I. Its hammers were driven by a bank of thyratron (gas-filled power switching) tubes which were visible when the back of the printer was removed.
		The Case 1107 was one of the first computers on Earth to provide access from remote locations both at other locations on the campus and as far afield as Erie, Pennsylvania.

	UNIVAC I - CompWisdom
		The notoriously famous original UNIVAC I of the Census Bureau was moved to the Smithsonian Institute to preserve as a forefather of the computer revolution.
		UNIVAC 1 however proved to be a beautiful piece of computing equipment, much beloved by many of the people who were fortunate enough to rub shoulders with it.
		UNIVAC I machine instructions were composed of an operation code, usually a letter, and an address which was meant to be a three decimal digit quantity from 000 to 999.

	UNIVAC Memories
		The first computer I ever used was a UNIVAC 1107, and for more than a decade stretching from 1967 through 1978, most of my programming was oriented toward those machines, spanning four generations of hardware: the 1107, 1108, 1110, and 1100/80 (which I used briefly to develop microprocessor software).
		UNIVAC 1100 machines used one's complement representation of negative numbers, as opposed to the two's complement form almost universal today.
		Programmers of UNIVAC 1100 mainframes in the 1960's through the mid 1970's exalted in discovering clever ways to squeeze the most out of machines which, by today's standards, would be considered hopelessly slow and short of memory.

	UNIVAC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		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.
		With the death of EMCC's chairman and chief financial backer Henry Strauss in a plane crash on October 25, 1949, EMCC was sold to typewriter maker Remington Rand on February 15, 1950.
		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.

	UNIVAC FAQ
		One reason UNIVAC became popular is that it was shown on television in 1952 to predict the presidential election.
		Another reason the UNIVAC became famous is that it was the first computer to be "mass produced" and although only 46 of the first model were made, many other computers in the Remington Rand (later Sperry Rand) line used the name UNIVAC also.

	UNIVAC 1108
		The UNIVAC 1108 was the second member of Sperry Rand's UNIVAC 1100 series of computers, introduced in 1964.
		Integrated circuits replaced the thin film magnetic memory that the UNIVAC 1107 used for register storage.
		Just as the first UNIVAC 1108 systems were being delivered in 1965, Sperry Rand announced the UNIVAC 1108 II (also known as the UNIVAC 1108A) which had support for multiprocessing: up to three CPUs, four memory banks totaling 262,144 words, and two independent programmable input/output controllers (IOCs).

	Compiling SIMULA
		Ever since Univac's offer was first known to NTNF in June 1962, they had emphasized the fact that an engagement involving such a heavy investment would necessarily imply that the bulk of NCC's available resources had to be directed strictly towards the business side of the institute's activities.
		It is evident, however, that the 1107 engagement restricted research latitude in general, and gave way for a professional profile which, at least to a certain extent, resembled the situation before 1960.
		Univac was not unanimous in its reactions to the new SIMULA compiler.

		This was the first computer to be produced commercially in the United States and was the successor to the ENIAC, with a total of 46 UNIVACs being built.
		The UNIVAC was a direct competitor with computers made by IBM for the business market.
		One of the major advances that the UNIVAC introduced was an ability to handle both numerical and alphabetical information with equal success.

		UNIVAC's systems programming group in St. Paul started work on an operating system for the 1107, which eventually became known as EXEC I. It was intended to support true multi-programming: sharing CPU time among several batch runs.

		Just as the first UNIVAC 1108s were being delivered, Sperry Rand announced the 1108 II (also referred to as the 1108A) which had been modified to support multiprocessing.

		It is worth noticing that Univac at the time knew that NCC had already ordered a GIER computer from Denmark.24 In this regard their initiative must be understood as an attempt to subvert the GIER order by offering NCC a better contract.
		In this respect it can be asserted that the UNIVAC 1107 came to represent a double- edged sword, at least as far as basic research activities were concerned.

		The EXEC II is a serial, batch-oriented (qv) operating system first developed for the UNIVAC 1107 by the Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC).
		In 1962 system programmers working for Remington Rand UNIVAC under Bob Bemer began writing what they intended to be a multiprogramming operating system for its new 1107 mainframe computer.
		The EXEC II Operating System was easily ported to the improved UNIVAC 1108 mainframe (first delivered in 1965), and became popular worldwide in the absence of comparable, field-tested software systems for IBM and General Electric mainframes.

		Unisys has a long history, dating back as far as 1873, but it was not until 1960 when their first mainframe computer system was launched: the Sperry Rand UNIVAC 1100 Series.
		Further models followed with the introduction of dual and multiprocessors up until 1984 when the A series was launched, a forerunner of the current ClearPath HMP NX System.
		Further enhancements were made until in 1995 ClearPath heterogeneous multi-processing was launched which allowed A series and 2200 series applications and databases to run with UnixWare and Windows NT applications and databases on a single platform.

		In return for this generous offer however, Univac wanted NCC to provide them with SIMULA and an implementation of the linear programming system developed by Sverre Spurkland.23
		Since the SIMULA project, in his opinion, was very much worth doing, he had already authorized the necessary funding of the project.28 Evidence of Univac's sustained interest in SIMULA is found in a letter from Univac to Kristen Nygaard dated 23 October, 1964:
		Whereas the intention had been that this should be both an ALGOL and a SIMULA compiler, it soon became apparent that the differences between these languages and their respective implementation techniques made such a unification impractical.65
