The IAS machine was a binary computer with a 40-bit word, storing two 20-bit instructions in each word. The memory was 1,024 words (5 kilobytes in modern terminology). Negative numbers were represented in two's complement format. It had two general-purpose registers available: the Accumulator (AC) and Multiplier/Quotient (MQ).
The Harvard architecture is a computer architecture with separate storage [1] and signal pathways for instructions and data. It is often contrasted with the von Neumann architecture, where program instructions and data share the same memory and pathways. This architecture is often used in real-time processing or low-power applications. [2][3]
MANIAC I. The MANIAC's arithmetic unit nearing completion in 1952. The MANIAC I (Mathematical Analyzer Numerical Integrator and Automatic Computer Model I) [1][2] was an early computer built under the direction of Nicholas Metropolis at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. It was based on the von Neumann architecture of the IAS, developed by ...
An open PDP-8/E with its logic modules behind the front panel and one dual TU56 DECtape drive at the top. A "Straight-8" running at the Stuttgart Computer Museum. The earliest PDP-8 model, informally known as a "Straight-8", was introduced on 22 March 1965 priced at $18,500 [ 3 ] (equivalent to about $178,900 in 2023 [ 4 ]).
Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 include the Internet Authentication Service (IAS), an implementation of RADIUS server. IAS supports authentication for Windows-based clients, as well as for third-party clients that adhere to the RADIUS standard. IAS stores its authentication information in Active Directory, and can be managed with ...
The von Neumann architecture —also known as the von Neumann model or Princeton architecture —is a computer architecture based on a 1945 description by John von Neumann, and by others, in the First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC. [ 1 ] The document describes a design architecture for an electronic digital computer with these components:
DEC 16-bit. Successor. VAX-11. The PDP–11 is a series of 16-bit minicomputers sold by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) from 1970 into the late 1990s, one of a set of products in the Programmed Data Processor (PDP) series. In total, around 600,000 PDP-11s of all models were sold, making it one of DEC's most successful product lines.
The analytical engine was a proposed digital mechanical general-purpose computer designed by English mathematician and computer pioneer Charles Babbage. [ 2 ][ 3 ] It was first described in 1837 as the successor to Babbage's difference engine, which was a design for a simpler mechanical calculator. [ 4 ]
