The full form of EDSAC is Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator. It’s used on Computing ,Hardware in Worldwide
Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator (EDSAC) was an early British computer. EDSAC was the first practical stored-program electronic computer and first to run a graphical computer game.
The Electronic delay storage automatic calculator (EDSAC) was an early British computer. Inspired by John von Neumann’s seminal First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC, the machine was constructed by Maurice Wilkes and his team at the University of Cambridge Mathematical Laboratory in England. EDSAC was the second electronic digital stored-program computer to go into regular service.
Later the project was supported by J. Lyons & Co. Ltd., intending to develop a commercially applied computer and succeeding in Lyons’ development of LEO I, based on the EDSAC design. Work on EDSAC started during 1947, and it ran its first programs on 6 May 1949, when it calculated a table of square numbers and a list of prime numbers. EDSAC was finally shut down on 11 July 1958, having been superseded by EDSAC 2, which remained in use until 1965
