A von Neumann architecture scheme. The von Neumann architecture—also known as the von Neumann model or Princeton architecture—is a computer architecture based on the First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC, [1] written by John von Neumann in 1945, describing designs discussed with John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert at the University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Electrical Engineering.
James Pomerene working on the IAS machine. The IAS machine was the first electronic computer built at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey.It is sometimes called the von Neumann machine, since the paper describing its design was edited by John von Neumann, a mathematics professor at both Princeton University and IAS.

John von Neumann (1903–1957) was a Hungarian-American mathematician, physicist, computer scientist, engineer and polymath.He had perhaps the widest coverage of any mathematician of his time, integrating pure and applied sciences and making major contributions to many fields, including mathematics, physics, economics, computing, and statistics.
John von Neumann (/ v ɒ n ˈ n ɔɪ m ən / von NOY-mən; Hungarian: Neumann János Lajos [ˈnɒjmɒn ˈjaːnoʃ ˈlɒjoʃ]; December 28, 1903 – February 8, 1957) was a Hungarian and American mathematician, physicist, computer scientist and engineer.
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 John von Neumann. As with almost all computers of its era, it was a ...
Von Neumann machine may refer to: Von Neumann architecture, a conceptual model of nearly all computer architecture; IAS machine, a computer designed in the 1940s based on von Neumann's design; Self-replicating machine, a class of machines that can replicate themselves Universal constructor (disambiguation) Von Neumann probes, hypothetical space ...
A von Neumann language in computing is a programming language that is a high-level abstract isomorphic copy of a von Neumann architecture. [1] As of 2009, most current programming languages fit into this description [citation needed], likely as a consequence of the extensive domination of the von Neumann computer architecture during the past 50 years.
