Babbage's expectations for his engines
1991. Wilkes Maurice V. Babbage's expectations for his engines. Offprint from Annals of the History of Computing 13 1991. Without wrappers as issued. Fine. 141-145pp. 281 x 217 mm. Provenance: Maurice Wilkes. First edition offprint issue. A brief account of the capabilities and limitations of Babbage's Difference Engine and his proposed but never completed Analytical Engine. Of the latter Wilkes stated that "the Analytical Engine would have been capable of evaluating an arbitrary formula in much the way that a modern digital computer can. Without question it would have been of immense value over a wide range of applications" p. 144. Wilkes 1999 no. 144. Origins of Cyberspace 1056. unknown books

A magnetic-tape auxiliary storage system for the EDSAC. Signed offprint
1956. Wilkes Maurice V. and Willis D. W. A magnetic-tape auxiliary storage system for the EDSAC. Offprint from Proceedings of the Institution of Electrical Engineers 103 part B suppl. 2 1956. Original white printed wrappers. Signed by Wilkes on the front wrapper. 337-345 1pp. 281 x 217 mm. Provenance: Maurice Wilkes. Fine. First edition offprint issue. A description of the experimental magnetic-tape storage system developed for EDSAC which was the direct ancestor of the magnetic tape units on EDSAC 2. Spurred by the work then being done in the United States on the use of magnetic tape for computer purposes Wilkes became the first in Britain to pursue this line of research. "After some initial experiments I designed with the help of the workshop staff a magnetic tape unit of advanced specification. The tape was moved at 100 inches per second by means of a pair of pneumatic capstans one for each direction. . . . I had as a collaborator in this work D. W. Willis who had been on our staff in the early days and who had now rejoined the Laboratory. . . . We connected an early version of the tape unit to EDSAC 1 via a shift register. The system did not work particularly well and contributed little to the operation of the machine. It did however enable some practical experience to be obtained. In due course Willis joined Decca Radar taking with him the knowledge he had acquired while with us and the result was the Decca twin tape unit. We purchased two of these for the EDSAC 2 giving us four tape positions in all and they gave very good service" Wilkes 1985 190. Wilkes 1999 no. 40. Origins of Cyberspace 1037. unknown books

Wilkes Maurice V.
A method of solving second order simultaneous linear differential equations using the Mallock machine. Signed by Wilkes
1940. Wilkes Maurice Vincent 1913- . A method of solving second order simultaneous linear differential equations using the Mallock machine. Offprint from Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society 36 part II April 1940. Original buff printed wrappers. Signed by Wilkes on the front wrapper. 1 204-208 2pp. 257 x 184 mm. Provenance: Maurice Wilkes. <p>First edition offprint issue. Wilkes directed the design and construction of EDSAC the first readily usable full-scale stored-program computer. EDSAC was preceded in operation by the Manchester "Baby"prototype stored-program machine which ran for only a short time in 1948; in America BINAC was probably running programs about the same time but it too was a very short-lived machine.</p> <p>In addition to developing EDSAC Wilkes was responsible for a number of programming innovations such as labels macros and microprogramming that became standard in the computer industry. He studied physics at Cambridge University where he received his Ph.D. in 1936 with a thesis based on work performed in the Cavendish Laboratory on the propagation of very long radio waves in the ionosphere. While engaged in postgraduate research on this topic he was allowed to use Cambridge University's model differential analyzer to solve a difficult equation. This machine which Wilkes found "irresistible" Wilkes 1985 25 inspired an abiding interest in automatic computing. At the end of 1936 Wilkes was put in charge of Cambridge's model differential analyzer and the following year he joined the staff of the university's newly founded Mathematical Laboratory becoming its director after the close of World War II. The Mathematical Laboratory renamed the Computing Laboratory in the 1960s played a critical role in the development of the electronic digital computer.</p> <p>One of Wilkes's tasks during 1937 was to gather information about the special-purpose calculating machine invented by R. R. M. Mallock of Cambridge's Engineering Department which the Mathematical Laboratory was interested in purchasing. Wilkes described the machine as follows:</p> <p>The Mallock machine was an analogue device and was capable of solving ten simultaneous linear equations in ten unknowns. It was based on the use of tapped transformers with the windings connected to form a network. The accuracy obtainable from such an arrangement might be expected to be very low because of losses in the transformers. What made the Mallock machine give a useful accuracy-one part in 1000 in favourable cases-was the use of a highly ingenious feedback circuit known as a compensator associated with each transformer. As a piece of electronics this was well ahead of its time. . . .</p> <p>In order to solve a set of simultaneous equations one had first to set the coefficients on an array of digital switches. The roots were then obtained by adjusting another switch until a galvanometer showed zero. This had to be done for each root in turn. When I got to know him Mallock was experimenting with a device based on the use of telephone relays for performing this operation automatically and printing the result on a paper strip. Although this gear came with the Mallock machine it was not fully developed and we made no attempt to use it. However it gave me my first introduction to the use of telephone relays in computing or rather control circuits and to some of the tricks one can play with them Wilkes 1985 29. Wilkes 1999 no. 6.

1800. Engraving 5 x 4 inches. Light soiling. A few contemporary ink notations on verso. Engraved portrait of Governor Anne Joseph Hippolyte de Maurès Comte de Malartic governor of the island of Mauritius. The portrait is a line-drawing done in profile and framed in an oval. Flags flank either side of the oval frame and it is captioned beneath. There is some light wear to the tiny imprint information causing it to be slightly obscured but it is possible that the illustrator's name is "Girouai" and the engraver may be "Noiret." The engraving is a bit crude and printed on laid paper. It is likely that it was done shortly after Malartic's death in 1800. A most unusual and exotic image a tribute to the rich culture of printing that flourished on the remote island in the south Indian Ocean. unknown books
