DESCRIPTION:This webinar presents the history of Military computers from th
 e very first electromechanical codebreaking machines of WWII through the f
 irst Tube machines of the 1940s and early 1950s to the transistor &amp; early 
 integrated circuit machines of the late 1950s &amp; 1960s. We learn of the roo
 ts of Univac Defense Systems (now part of Lockheed Martin) as the leading 
 military computer company and how those roots were driven by the Navy’s 
 OP-20-G communications intelligence group responsible for breaking Japanes
 e\, German\, and Italian codes in WWII before becoming the NSA during the 
 cold war. We watch the development of the Naval Tactical Data System\, its
  computers\, and how went on to serve Navy\, Marines\, Air Force\, NASA\, 
 and FAA.\n\nSpeaker(s): David Bondurant\, \n\nVirtual: https://events.vtoo
