  • "Warren discusses computer projects at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering, where he was a faculty member and supervisor of the EDVAC project. He discusses the EDVAC, the personal interactions of the project members, and the effect of the project on the Moore School. Central to his discussion are J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly and their disagreements with administrators at the University of Pennsylvania over patent rights, their resignations from the University and the founding of their own company, the role of John von Neumann, the distribution of his 1945 draft report on the EDVAC, and its lack of acknowledgement of other EDVAC contributors."
