The EDVAC was a binary serial computer with automatic addition, subtraction, multiplication, programmed division and automatic checking with an ultrasonic serial memory [3] capacity of 1,024 44-bit words, thus giving a memory, in modern terms, of 5.6 kilobytes.
The EDVAC computer was the first modern, electronic stored-program computer to be designed. It was, however, never produced to the original plan. When eventually redesigned and constructed, it was unreliable and heavily modified.
1 sty 2003 · During the design and construction of the ENIAC in 1944 and 1945, the need for more storage than its 20 10-decimal digit numbers was realized. The experience with acoustic delay lines for radar range measurement led to the concept of recirculating storage of digital information.

EDVAC był binarnym komputerem szeregowym o 44-bitowym słowie wyrównanym do 48 cykli. Pamięć operacyjna miała rozmiar 1024 słów. Bity były kodowane jako puls, oznaczający jedynkę, oraz brak pulsu, czyli zero.
6 sie 2002 · Abstract: It is well known that the EDVAC was the first general-purpose electronic digital stored-program computer to be designed. What is not so well known is that the EDVAC was nowhere near the first computer to be operational, was not actually constructed according to the initial design, was not reliable when constructed, and was eventually ...
The technology was originally designed to speed up 3-D graphics rendering. Since its introduction in the 1990s, the graphics processing unit (GPU) has transformed computer software and video games, allowing programmers to produce vivid and realistic images on screens.
