Computer History Archives Project (CHAP) | Office Automation Computers: Integrated Data Processing 1956 IBM Burroughs NCR ELECOM Bell Teletype @ComputerHistoryArchivesProject | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Today we examine over 25 different vintage data processing machines from 1940's to 1956, many IBM machines, the ELECOM 50 Electronic Accounting Machine, Remington Rand, Burroughs Western Union and Bell Systems Teletypes, punch card, punched paper tape, magnetic tape and more. Exceptionally good full color details of various office women operating accounting machines, loading punched paper tape programs, using data entry and teletype machines and various data recording equipment types in action. Merging of electronic computation systems with telecommunications in the early days of office automation. INTEGRATED DATA PROCESSING or "IDP" fundamentals explored and explained. Products from over 10 different technology manufacturers. Includes original narration and full color, original rare footage of machines in action. Runtime: 25 mins.
For review and discussion, an excellent historical documentary from National Office Management Association provides the foundation for this look back into the mid-20th century electric and electronic office systems for FINANCE, BANKING, TELECOMMUNICATIONS, DATA TRANSMISSION and more. Hope you enjoy! Comments are welcome. (Computer History Archives Project)
