Looking for some knowledgeable with the Harvard Mark I

[W. Bryan Caudle]

Greetings!  I hope everyone here is doing well.  I was contacted recently by
a gentleman from the University of Heidelberg who is doing research on the
IBM ASCC, otherwise known as Harvard Mark I.  Specifically he is looking for
understanding of its theory of operation and how the accumulators are used
in calculations.  While I have some general knowledge and there are some
resources online, he was hoping to connect with someone with more extensive
knowledge of the machine.  If anyone here would be interested in talking
with him, please let me know and I will introduce you, and feel free to
share this with your network(s) if you feel you know someone who might be
able to help.

 

Thanks!
