The big day may have come and gone, but keep in touch as we’re always up to something new and exciting.
ENIAC Day is an annual celebration on February 15th.
On February 15, 1946, the ENIAC was unveiled at the University of Pennsylvania. As part of that unveiling, the machine was demonstrated to those present. Watch a reenactment of that demonstration based on a press demonstration given and oral history collected by the ENIAC Programmers Project.
Shutdown Your Computer for 1 Minute in Honor of ENIAC
I'm requesting that all citizens of the world turn off their computers for one minute at two fifteen o'clock (2:15PM) Eastern Standard Time on February 15th (2/15) as a tribute to the ENIAC, the world's first all electronic, programmable computer. ENIAC Day celebrates this great computer's memory and its essential role in the march of the computer age. Similar interruption of web servers, data centers and critical host computers is deemed too dangerous since so many essential services rely on this computer power. A one minute shutdown of all non-essential computing devices is a fitting demonstration of the debt owed to the ENIAC and the unique efforts of its founding creators Eckert and Mauchly and founding programmers Betty Jean Jennings (later Bartik), Kay McNulty (later Mauchly Antonelli), Frances Bilas (later Spence), Marlyn Wescoff (later Meltzer), Betty Snyder (later Holberton) and Ruth Lichterman (later Teitelbaum) (see www.ENIACDay.org for details).
Power down your computer for one minute in honor of ENIAC on February 15th at 2:15PM
