Title: The Virtual Life of ENIAC: Simulating the Operation of the First Electronic Computer.
Authors: Zoppke, Till1 kinnla@gmail.com, Rojas, Raül1 rojas@inf.fu-berlin.de
Source: IEEE Annals of the History of Computing. Apr-Jun2006, Vol. 28 Issue 2, p18-25. 8p. 13 Black and White Photographs.
Subjects: ENIAC (Computer), Computers, Java programming language, Computer simulation, Simulation methods & models, Computer software, Internet, Web portals, Computer programming
Abstract: The article discusses the software simulation of the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC). The model offers a more flexible method since the errors can be minimized and debugging could be simply done. It also stores and loads machine configurations. After the simulation of ENIAC using a computer which is connected to the Internet, it can be programmed to solve complex numerical problems. The programming involves synchronize flow of information on every module by establishing connectors between the functional units.
