EMAL (EMAL-1, Elektronowa Maszyna Automatycznie Licząca) – doświadczalny komputer pierwszej generacji Romualda Marczyńskiego pod względem organizacyjnym wzorowany na angielskim EDSAC. Powstawał w Grupie Aparatów Matematycznych (GAM) Państwowego Instytutu Matematycznego w Warszawie w latach 1953–1955

Podczas budowy wystąpiły poważne problemy z niezawodnością elementów. Komputer nie został w pełni uruchomiony, ale doświadczenie zostało wykorzystane przy budowie komputera EMAL-2, a pamięć po udoskonaleniu trafiła do komputera XYZ. EMAL-1 przestał istnieć z początkiem 1957 r.

El 26 de junio de 1913 nace Maurice Wilkes, un pionero británico de la informática, reconocido por su trabajo en el desarrollo de la EDSAC, la primera computadora con programa almacenado, y por la invención de la microprogramación. Una figura clave en el desarrollo de la computación moderna.

El 29 de noviembre de 2010 falleció el científico computacional y físico inglés, Maurice Vicent Wilkes, quien diseño y ayudó a construir la EDSAC, una de las primeras computadoras de programa almacenado, y también inventó la microprogramación, un método para usar la lógica de programas para operar el CPU

The National Museum of Computing, on the Bletchley Park campus, is to reopen in early September. And in the meanwhile, they present a 3D virtual tour - I've collected some links to particular points of interest - but there's a lot more in there, including ICL, Elliott, lots of microcomputers.

TNMoC to reopen - and a virtual 3D tour right now

The National Museum of Computing, on the Bletchley Park campus, is to reopen in a few weeks time. And in the meanwhile, they present a 3D virtual tour: Here’s are direct links: to the calculators, and the Curta and friends, and to the slide rules, and to the PDAs. Of course, there’s a great deal more to see, from EDSAC and WITCH to Cray. Via Bruce on the HPCC forums.

A video update for October 2019 by The National Museum of Computing of their EDSAC reconstruction project. Nice.

Now that's proper #retrocomputing

Next step, it seems, is an EDSAC-on-FPGA hackfest for all comers, in Hebden Bridge
